Stopped here on a whim because I wanted something to eat and wanted to support someone local as opposed to the big chains. Friendly service. Great food. I had a burrito with El pastor. Excellent! Very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.

The presentation of the food looks very amazing the chef does a very good job on cooking he deserves a pay raise.

The food is very delicious. But holy moly the prices are a bit of a stretch. 5$ for a large glass of horchata, that kind of tastes like Klass mix. If you know you know. 12$ for a torta Cubano and not sure how much the tacos de lengua cost. But for 2 of us w/1 small horchata and 1 large horchata. Plus those two meals, it came up to 45$ before tip. A lil pricey for these dishes imo. Just because I’m a gringo doesn’t mean I know that’s steep in regards to how much the ingredients truly costs. I will say I do love their hot sauce combos, and so this guero is definitely gonna be back, I’m just gonna bring my own horchata this time.

This is my first time trying the Birria tacos. They were delicious and the beans and rice were also delicious. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

This is your place for legit tacos and Mexican food! The chips came out freshly fried and killer queso. Ordered 4 different meats for tacos and all were good, the salsa's we're all very good. The shrimp dish was delicious, esp with fresh flour tortillas. Great service and these blistered jalapeno with seasoning were crazy good.

El Rancho Taqueria is my favorite spot for tacos! I've been eating here for a couple years now, and the food never disappoints. I also love their carnitas- the meat is tender and truly melts in your mouth, but it also has the perfect crispy outside. Definitely try the horchata, too! It's a delicious treat of a drink. It is worth noting that this isn't your typical Americanized tex-mex restaurant. I've seen some people ding this place in reviews for not meeting their expectations of an Americanized Mexican restaurant. (No, you're not going to get free chips and salsa here.) El Rancho is more authentic, but I think that's part of what makes this place so amazing! I also find the prices to be very reasonable. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough. It's an unassuming eatery that has the amazingly delicious food inside.

I think i can say this is the best mexican food i have had in north carolina. Hearty portions, a bustling kitchen, and all the customers were spanish as well, which is a great sign of authentic food! Carnitas were great. The staff are also friendly. We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu! Part 2: so I went back to try the tacos, and I never knew tacos could be so good! I ordered Al pastor, carnitas, and chorizo, which were all delicious. It was all seasoned so well, each bite full of flavor. Generous cilantro, onion, and radishes that were all crisp and fresh. And a grilled pepper on the side. So after going back, this place wins my spot for best tacos in North Carolina.

We visited El Rancho Taqueria in Winston-Salem as we were traveling thru. We pulled up restaurants nearby, and Yelp had many more reviews for the restaurant, so we gave it a try. When we walked in,…

They are usually real busy but they have booths inside to dine in , the atmosphere is very diverse. Bathrooms overall were clean but it is only one person per bathroom . You can pay with cash and debit card. You come in and find a place to sit . The food came out pretty quick and very delicious . The verde chilaquiles was delicious if you have never had them . A spicy green sauce is covered over tortilla chips with cheese and sour cream and then you have two eggs and beans with steak . They have several options for tacos as well and my husband really enjoyed they very flavorful. The chicken quesadilla was good as well . And I recommend the waters if you have never tried any there really fresh and delicious. Service was good from the moment we walked in the door . The prices have definitely went up since we first started coming here years ago . For a family a 4 we spent about 70$. It’s also located around several stores once you leave like a bakery , and meat store and ice cream place if that is something you would be interested in afterwards. It’s not in the best area , but we never had any issues with anybody outside the restaurant or inside .

The food used to be delicious, but now the pork was bad, sour, or rotten. The beans and guacamole were rotten too. This is the second time this has happened to me. They have good service, but the cook doesn't care if he kicks customers out with spoiled food. Owner, please look into this; a good restaurant is known for its food. Right now, I don't even want to go back. It's a shame because I used to like their food.

I have been on the Southside of Winston for more than 40 years. I remember when they built this place. I have been eating here fore five maybe six years now. But tonight the older gentlemen disrespected me in the most racist way. I sat and ordered inside 2 ACPs and one mega burrito. He said it would be 15 minutes but took 25 minutes. There was a Hispanic male that got his order but later returned. I watch him and heard him say my name but no food. So I waited no problem I know it's Saturday mind you I said I have been numerous times before. So when the older Hispanic male took his food I noticed a plate on the counter because of the swinging door. I assume it was the man before me plates. So I waited he gave the man his food and three or four more orders came after mines. I got my food when he came out and went home. I stay 2 minutes from there. I tasted my food and noticed the steak was cold as well as the rice. I understand the lettuce and tomatoes and the sour cream but even the refried beans was cold. I took my food back. I was polite said sir my burrito is cold. He persistent tried to tell me it's because of the letter and sour cream. I said I understand that but my meat and rice and the beans. I said the plate was cold. Now if you making it fresh the rice and the steak and the refried beans would have some warmth. Not smoking hot but warmth. He persisted to tell me he would he fund me the money. I said sire I'm hungry don't want the money I want the food please. He persistent to be nasty and I got silent but said sir I just want the food. He says so nasty no and when he gave me the money yes I snatch it cause I was angry. Out of the many times I ate here this is my last night. He made the man's food before me when he brought it back but not mines. Racists

Bad service food was cold when they brought us the food we order shrimp soup tasted like straight ketchup Instead of broth we waited almost an hour to receive the food we had to send back the tacos cause they were so cold to the touch tortilla was cold and the meat don’t recommend it

Me and my boyfriend just left this establishment and it was not what we expected at all. We were greeted and treated fairly nice. I wanted to ask if my order could be altered and was told that it would be. However, when I received my order it was not what I wanted. My boyfriend ordered the mega burrito and the picture below shows only a few bites in. This was our first and last time coming into this restaurant. I advise if you want a real authentic experience and meal try another restaurant. The ONLY good thing was the horchata.

There was a FAKE NAIL in my water and when we sent it back they brought back a water WITH THE NAIL STILL IN IT???? As in we got a water with a nail in it TWICE, Which is CRAZYY. Also there was hair in my food as well as my friends. Just gross and weird and we got no apologies for the WHOLE NAIL??? No compensation no discount no nothing!
