El Rancho - Montesano

We stopped by on December 28th for a quick snack. We were from out of town so maybe we were a target? Either way when it came time to pay. I was surprised at the amount. I still tipped the young man. He seemed surprised when I asked for receipt: When we got in our car; we looked to see what cost so much. Apparently the menu didn’t match the soupy prawn appetizer price. Was a whole $5.00 more. Any way to say we don’t recommend this place won’t probably matter to all the locals. But if you’re passing through just keep passing!! Adios

Nice place in a good location downtown. My brother and I stopped for lunch. I ordered a cadillac margarita and Carne asada. My brother ordered a ground beef enchilada. Great favor on asada and really good enchilada! I recommend stopping in of your in the area.

I ordered the two chimichanga combo, both with shredded beef (for an upcharge) rather than the offered ground beef or chicken options. My husband ordered the same, except make one chicken. It took a while to get our meals. When they came, they looked really appetizing although I immediately noticed how scant the sour cream and guacamole was. It was literally a spoonful of each to try to spread on two chimis??!! I asked the server if there would be an extra charge if I wanted some more of each to add to my chimis. She informed that there would be, so I declined and made her aware that it was insufficient as served. My husband 's chimis came as one chicken one and one ground beef one, despite how he had ordered them. He was rather disappointed with the quality of the ground beef one, but ate most of it anyway. My shredded beef ones were too spicy for me, honestly, and one of the first bites I cut had what looked like two big vein tubes sticking out of gristle. Yuck!! Needless to say, I set it aside on my plate. The rice and beans were pretty salty too, as was the sauce/seasoning in the chimis. The staff seemed rather oblivious to us and rather sterile. Nobody came to ask how our meals were and we had to flag someone down to get the check. Don 't think we will ever return to this establishment.

We love this place. Food is always great. Staff is very friendly. We are in here so often that they ask where our sons are if the boys arent with us. This is the place we chose to have dinner on our 10th anniversary. Even when the place is packed the service is still fast.

Quit little place with out a lot of people dinning and food was okay not great but prices are good. Could stand to be remodeled, a bit out of date, and old looking. Still with all things considered not bad, three stars out of five.
