Jaime was totally cool, hooked me up big time. Good conversation and atmosphere. Highly recommend. Javier was also very kind and had a great attitude. I have been here many times for food, but never been to the bar. Both are great.

The owner Alex made me an Al pastor California burrito with guac and it's one of the best burritos I have ever had. The alpastor was slightly crispy and slightly spicy, more than normal, but for some reason it just hit the spot perfectly.

Dined there last night and was impressed with the service provided by the people behind the counter. Jaime and Wendy, you both rocked. Especially when a disgruntled customer complained about the service. They were professional and handled the matter like they were the managers on shift. Whomever their boss is needs to share this review with them and reward their employees exemplary behavior.

El Ranchito has the authentic flavor & the salsa is amazing. Jaime is the favorite bartender.

Love their breakfast burritos. I'd call myself an avid breakfast burrito lover, and my wife and I travel a lot. This is one of the best BB consistently.

The best Mexican food around! Jaime is the best bartender there is. Come in just to see him. Great beers on tap. Come here at least twice a week
