La rancherita taqueria

The adobado burrito made me cry tears of joy (literally). I'm a California girl and having been searching for an authentic taqueria. This place is fantastic.

I'm doubling down on my 5 star rating for La Rancherita a year and a half after my first review. Much has happened since that review. After becoming a huge fan, it turns out La Rancherita closed at it's original location much to my dismay. On Facebook, they mentioned that they'd be back soon in a new location. I checked constantly, waiting to see when they'd be back. One day, the address was updated on their page and I immediately drove to the address only to find they hadn't started even putting the space together yet. After what felt like forever, I saw the announcement they had reopened and I couldn't wait to see if they were still just as good.

The newest location is quaint, clean and quiet. At first, the menu was pretty limited, but still had the insanely delicious and affordable tacos. At that time, they only took cash. The only source of cash nearby is the "Yak's" market next door at some astronomical ATM fee. Needless to say, my laziness to get cash curtailed further visits to this place more often.

Flash forward to today, where I had cash and was craving tacos. I was pleasantly surprised to see that she now has a card machine and that her menu has expanded back to what I had seen when I first tried them out. I'm glad to see she's flourishing now in this location. Her tacos are as amazing as ever. I tried her Adobada and Pastor tacos on my most current visit and they are amazing! Along with the usual Carne Asada, I was super satisfied today for such a cheap price. Plus I have enough to have some more later.

If you're craving Mexican, before going to your favorite place, give this place a chance and see how they stack up. You might just find yourself asking the tacos: "where have you been all my life?"

Hard working cook, food is totally worth it..

I loved this place. It's small but the food is amazing, it has lots of flavor. The owner is super nice.

Great food! Seasoning and flavors are always consistent and explosive! Housemade salsa roja is amazing. Service is quick, friendly and efficient. Love the lady who owns and runs it!
