MI Rancherito Mexican Restaurant

Great authentic food, good service with a rustic old school feel, right in the middle of historic Payson, Utah. Decent prices with a great selection of items on the menu.

Mi Rancherito has been my favorite restaurant for 25 years.

Let me tell you. Believe all the hype about their chips and salsa, their food, their service. It is all GREAT! But what makes this place amazing is their heart. My 80 year-old father loves to frequent this place. He is a regular. The waitresses know his order without asking him. We lost my mom nearly two years ago now. He will still drag down there, dine alone and eat a meal there because he loves it. What is the best is there have been a couple of times the cashier or manager has told him, "This one is on us." Now THAT makes this restaurant stand out among the rest. They value the ONE! They value my dad. They have made a bond with him, as I am sure they do with all who walk through their door. So, when you're looking to support a local business and get authentic Mexican food, don't hesitate to go here. You are welcome here.

Delicious. I couldn't even find the door to this place at first. Definitely a hole in the wall. I wasn't even going to go here but several of the restaurants nearby were closed to make a movie on main street. I asked a few locals and three people blurted out the name of this place simultaneously. The staff was inexperienced, but I could tell they cared and were very friendly. When the food came out I was surprised, it was amazing. Even the rice, which is dry at most restaurants, was delicious. I'll be back here next time I'm in town

Wonderful! I'm here for the third time. Megan is a great server. She is very attentive and friendly. There's a great atmosphere every time I come here, and portions are great. I love the chiles rellenos. Salsa hits the spot. Thank you!
