I have been going here for years now and every time I am satisfied. I only write google reviews for places I absolutely love or absolutely despise. This place will always have my heart. Also, dont listen to Baconator Jones's review. Anyone who gives them a stupid nickname like that and writes a serious food review should stick to the namesake place they should eat every meal--Wendy's.

No prices displayed like others have said. Paid 14 for a steak and egg burrito plus 3 for a mineral water. Food was not good. just a tortilla from a package and chewy meat. Nothing special. Plenty of other places nearby have served me well, I eat out daily.

Best Authentic Mexican food anywhere, I drove 3 hours to come try there food because I saw Keith Lee positively speak about El Ranchito Alegre. 10/10 would come

I cannot thank this restaurant enough. With just 30 minutes' notice, they stepped up in an incredible way to save our event after another vendor completely bailed on us. We had over 60 guests, including police officers, expecting food — and this amazing team made and delivered over 200 tacos, quesadillas, and more, all on the fly. The food was delicious, fresh, and clearly made with care — but just as importantly, the staff was kind, fast, and unbelievably professional under pressure. They turned what could’ve been a disaster into a memorable event for all the right reasons. This is what true community-minded service looks like. If you're looking for a restaurant that shows up when it counts — with great food and even better people — this is the one. They’ve earned our loyalty for life.

Had the Birria en Caldo from El Ranchito Alegre today for lunch and it was ON POINT. The consome is authentically and richly seasoned and the chunks of meat were huge with a good ratio of meat to fat and bones. There’s nothing better for your soul than a slow-cooked consome. The homemade tortillas and salsas are also delicious. I can’t wait to try everything!
