El Ranchito Taco Shop - Mexican restaurant in Murrieta - 23811 Washington Ave, USA

Everything we got tasted great! It was freshly made and quick. Service was great, too! They didn't mind substitutions or leaving things off. They had bottles sodas and fountain drinks. Plus a salsa and hot sauce bar that was included.

The food is good! So far, I've had an enchilada plate. And also Taco Tuesday 🌮 is a bomb. Goes well with a beer. Bean & cheese burrito 🌯 👌🏽

We Got two 3 taco plates it was delicious. The salsa and pico were tasty. They used to have great chips that they made there or so they tasted. Now they taste like and look like store bought chips. Place was clean-ish tables were clean, floor sticky. Cashier was LOUD And over talks you giddy like. Had to correct order as she didn’t stop to listen.

I am a big fan of Mexican food and I have visited many Mexican food establishment trying to find the best food around. I have found two separate places that give you the most authentic and obviously the tastiest options and one of those favorites is El Ranchito Taco Shop. Since El Ranchito Taco shop is a chain, I have visited two taco shops to verify consistency between the two and I found they are both spot on with each other. Both are clean, food is cooked to order, both serve the same authentic menu and the staff are friendly. One of my favorite dishes is the chicken flautus and the taco salad. The have other options that are fabulous tacos both crunchy and soft, chimichangas and so much more. They have to die for beans perfectly salted and killer rice with just the right flavors. Some Mexican restaurants put way to much tomato sauce and it gets a little gummy and gooey, not the kinda of rice I’m trying to eat. Their food is also not as heavy or greasy that you end up feeling better about yourself, rather than feel bloated. In end, my whole family loves them and my husband and I sneak food home on occasions to share. Thanks to all of you at El Ranchito Taco Shop, we look forward to our next meal with you.

Looks small when you walk in but actually alot of open seating. Okay customer service. Lots of selections on the menu. It's a little pricey but it's worth it the food was really good . Street tacos almost 4 bucks you can make two out of one . The wait time was a little long for a few tacos but once again it was good and worth the wait . Lot of breakfast burrito options As well. Check it out

This place has really good food, and there's a special type of vibe about it. It's like, you definitely you're at a Mexican restaurant. I got the Cali burrito with guacamole, it was a bit pricey, but it was really delicious. I definitely recommend!

Clean. Full on salsa bar! Real authentic Mexican food! This is my new spot!

This is for their newer location at 39840 Los Alamos Rd., Murrieta CA 92562. Yes, I saw 5 perfect stars, and broke the cardinal rule: never be swayed by fewer than 50+ reviews. Why? Because a small number of 5 stars is not enough to see the big picture, and in this case we once again paid dearly for being to eager. Went, ordered, paid and brought it home to my well fed family. Personnel was nice all around. Salsas a little more than acceptable, food right down average all around, with a certain fiasco thrown in for effect. Arrived around 12:30 PM, give or take, and ordered the following items: 3 Bean and Cheese Burros, sorry, I meant Burritos, but these had generous amounts of refried beans, barely noticeable amounts of cheese. Beans smooth, oozing out, big indeed. $4.99 each plus tax. 3.5 Stars. Super Burrito Carnitas $7.99 or $8.99 each? The formula for these type of burritos is well known. Plenty of the sides to bulk it up, lesser of the meat, and the final result no different than countless similar eateries of the same denomination. This one did not emerge victorious by a long shot. Carnitas so so. 3 Stars. SB Pastor, same price as above. This is supposed to be pork meat marinated correctly. The reception of this burrito, cut in small pieces and shared by 3, was below lukewarm, bordering on mediocre to be frank. 2.5 Stars. Super Nachos, $8.99? This one opted for ground beef and it was poorly built, soggy chips that made all the food, once it had cooled down somewhat, an experience not to be repeated. Doesn't take a Cordon Bleu trained chef to make a decent plate of nachos. But what are nachos anyways, if not the same ingredients used to make a burrito thrown over chips. 2 Stars. Food was heavy, certainly not as good as 5 Star reviews led us to believe. Total Bill: $43+. Being part of a franchise is no guarantee of above average food. Cooking at home don't sound too bad, now that I think about it. 3 Stars.
