So basically you're being charged an additional two dollars to eat there if you don't know about it. The prices are as of 2025...not good. But, you'll still know where that money went when you eat. Ordering soft corn shell (and I'm assuming soft tortilla) tacos to go they're not wrapped individually. It's a mess when you get home. A delicious mess, but still. Those things aside, I can't recommend La Rancherita enough. Specifically the Rock Island location.

We ate lunch at El Mexicano recently and while I enjoyed my huarache, I had serious food envy over my companion's carnitas. They looked and tasted very good and, as I later learned, are a restaurant specialty. I'll definitely come back to El Mexicano! Not only to check items off my shopping list, but for another cheap and tasty lunch (and carnitas).

My issue isn't directly with the restaurant portion of the business, but rather with the grocery…read moreside. While there is nothing wrong with the quality of the products, the pricing practices are highly frustrating. The Issues: No Listed Prices: Almost none of the items have price tags. The only way to find out how much something costs is when you are ringing it up at the register. Inconsistent Cashier Charges: The cashier appears to make up prices on the spot without scanning or checking for accuracy. If you don't watch closely, you will easily be overcharged. Outrageously High Markup: Some of the produce prices are completely unreasonable. For example: 1 lb of frozen Spanish plums: $12.99 Small papaya (1.5 lbs): Almost $20.00 Medium chayote: $2.00 each Final Verdict: Keep a very close eye on your total if you shop here. If you question the cashier about these erratic prices, be prepared for a defensive response or a poor attitude. I hope management addresses this lack of pricing transparency soon.

I ordered the veggie fajitas and asked them to add chicken, because I wanted all the veggies (mushroom, onion, and green pepper) with my protein, and none of the fajita dishes had all of those veggies. I pointed to the item on the menu and explained what I wanted and why. I also ordered a cocktail. But... what came was a glob of red with shredded chicken and red sauce on top, which doesn't look like fajitas to me. I asked if this was the fajitas, and she said yes. I thought that maybe it was served differently here, and I figured I'd fine the veggies inside somewhere. I now realize (after looking up the menu online) that what I ate was the veggie enchilada meal, because it was potatoes wrapped in tortillas, and there were no or few veggies involved. My cocktail also didn't come, and we were half way through the meal before the wait staff, who was milling around because there were no other tables inside, made eye contact enough for us to ask for our waitress. She apologized, obviously forgot, and brought the cocktail. The potato enchiladas were tasty, but not what I wanted, so I'm disappointed. The service was clearly disappointing. But the setting and the chips and salsa were good. I'd go back for a drink and to sit outside.

Had the meanest rudest food server I've ever had in my life and I've traveled the world. And all I am is super sweet and nice to the food servers. She didn't even wanna bring me a little bowl so I could have my own salsa because somebody else had a cold. She said they are running low on them and they don't do that because they don't want people to overuse salsa.. of course she was charging for chips. And of course they wouldn't let me get a plain crêpe instead of an order of pancakes.. and of course she said no to everything and anything and not only that but was so rude and so mean I tried to cancel my order immediately within one minute and they said no that it was already made, and that was a lie. Definitely won't be back. Gave a five dollar tip anyway I don't know why I guess I'm an idiot.
