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).

As I walked in I was greeted by the waitress and was seated near the windows. It was a nice view because the sun was going down and they were close to closing for tonight. The service was great and our food came out fast and everything was correct in the order. We were giving chips and salsa as soon as we sat down and it was on the house. Which is always nice. I ordered the steak tacos with chorizo added and they cooked and make my tacos the way I wanted it. The corn shell was a plus and they were fresh. My fiancé ordered the birria tacos and after taking a bite of hers I have to say hands down the best Birria tacos I ever had from a restaurant. Made me wish I would have ordered that lol.

A menu board, cash register, and kitchen occupy the front of the building, and apparently, there's a dining room in the back. I placed my to-go order and my tacos were ready in about three minutes. They were delicious. Street-taco style, served with cilantro, onions, and a very tasty salsa verde on the side. Wrapped individually in wax paper, then all together in foil, they were still nice and hot when I arrived home. I love Taqueria Roly's now! Will definitely be back.
