El Ranchero Mexican Restaurant

I liked it a lot.

The salsa tasted good, and wasn't too spicy. The bean dip portion was good for the size.

I got the quesabirria, and I think it was amazing!

I recommend this place if you're in town!

Excellence in all categories including Carlos, our waiter was very knowledgeable and attended to all our needs and answered our questions. The pictures of the entrees in the menu matched the real presentation. Additionally the portions, seasoning, and quality superseded the price. This is one of the best restaurants I have ever visited.

Decided to give this place a try for my daughter's birthday. The food was absolutely delicious (I recommend #22!). They have very generous portions of salsa (10 out of 10!). My husband ordered home made spicy salsa and he was very impressed. It's spicy! The atmosphere was very quiet and clean. My only hesitation is posting this and causing the quietness to change. Very friendly staff. They make you feel welcomed. Thank you, El Ranchero!

Ruby Tuesday's has come and gone and been replaced with a very good restaurant. I have the taco salad with shrimp it was excellent! The white cheese dip that I ordered had some flavor to it white and cheese a little hint of pepper but not too hot I think anyone could enjoy it. The salsa for the chips was very mild but very tasty, I would recommend it to anyone.

This is the best Mexican restaurant in town by far. The birria tacos and the enchiladas are probably my favorite dishes. The food and service are always excellent. It is also more family-friendly since it is a bit farther away from campus.

We ordered from the lunch menu and we were flabbergasted at the amount of food for the prices we paid. It was high quality food, an enormous portion of meat, and the flavors were exquisite. The service was friendly and prompt. If we lived in the area (passing through on the way to North Carolina), it would be a regular dining venue for us.

During my third visit to this restaurant, I was delighted to find that the excellent flavors I experienced the first two times persisted. The Uruapan carnitas I ordered were comparable to those I've tried in Mexico, with no significant difference in taste. The Birria was equally outstanding. The ambiance was tranquil, complemented by soft traditional Mexican music playing in the background. I highly recommend this establishment for its harmonious blend of Tex-Mex influences and authentic Mexican flavors, making it a commendable choice for those seeking a genuine dining experience

The hot sauce I ordered truly lived up to its promise of spiciness, catering perfectly to the Mexican palate. It added an extra kick to my meal, elevating the dining experience and showcasing the authenticity of the flavors. If you enjoy a bit of heat, their hot sauce is a definite must-try
To enhance the authentic Mexican experience, I paired everything with a Mexican craft beer, adding a touch of tradition to my meal. The combination of flavors, from the mouthwatering dishes to the spicy hot sauce, accompanied by a Mexican craft beer, truly elevated the dining experience. It's a recommendation for those looking to savor the essence of Mexican cuisine, all while feeling like a true aficionado of Mexican flavors and traditions

To cap off the meal, we ordered churros with ice cream, and it left me fully satisfied. The delightful combination transported me back to my 8th-year-old self in a Mexican plaza, evoking fond memories. It's the perfect sweet ending that added a nostalgic touch to the overall dining experience, making this visit truly memorable

You must come !

This was the worst So called Mexican Restaurant I have ever been to in my life!! I should have walked away when I seen hot wings on the menu. How can you destroy a chicken taco, (((tacos!!))) my eleven year old make better tacos, after running a 400, long jump, and shot put. The rice and beans tasted like a boot. The lemonade was so watered down, the only thing good was the water. If you want great Mexican food go to Agave Loco Mexican 1032 Opelika Rd

I really wish I hadn’t eaten here. They definitely gave me food poisoning. On top of that I ordered a strawberry daiquiri , top shelf for like $15 and I had to send it back because there was NO alcohol and even the fruity drink itself had barely any taste and it was like they had made a water with strawberry added into it? It was so bad I sent it back and just got tea. I’m gonna stick to el Durado.

THE best Mexican in Auburn. Here’s why:
- large servings
- not very expensive
- huge selection (including vegetarian options)
- very attentive service: checking on the table, cleaning, adjusting orders
- nice atmosphere

It is a simple place but it should be way more popular. Beats every other place within an hour.

We went for a quick luncheon and the food was excellent--they had quite a variety of options and the menu had pictures of specific items to give you an idea of what you'd be receiving (smart feature).
The service was very timely & our waitress was just as polite and got everything correct the first time.
The atmosphere was relaxed & very clean-- the absolute only thing that I could possibly complain the slightest bit about would be the table size being a bit small for a table of 4--it was a tad crowded once the food arrived, but luckily Tetris was my favorite game growing up lol.
