the best food ever And the bar is very clean. The waiters super nice also they added new food to the menu.

This place gets all the stars simply for their Guacamole! I mean everything else was amazing also but I haven't had guac this fresh & tasty since my trip to Cancun! The staff was friendly, service was fast and efficient and the drinks were amazing! This is definitely on my top 5 list of places near home for great Mexican. You will not be disappointed! read more

El Ranchero - Guacamole - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

Food is standard tex-mex fare, no surprises. The refried beans were ok, come gratis with your enchilada or quesadilla; Serving actual authentic brown or black beans may be preferable for some . Certainly go for their meal option For 2 if hangry; Huge, you'll be eating for weeks.. :) Be weary when ordering takeout Fri or Sat night; 15 min wait... ... ..riiggghhhtttt.. .. You'll b waiting a good amount of time, staring at other patrons, staring at you. :/ No surprises w their tasty salsa, similar to Tostitos Most of staff wearing masks; Admit I've only ordered 'takeout'; the experience may be quite exquisite with dine-in meals read more

My wife and I came to visit for our weekly date night. El Ranchero sends out coupons in the mail, so we decided to try it out. The Service: The service was pretty good. The waiter was nice, but it felt liKe he forgot about us after we told him we needed a few moments to look at the menu. I expected no more than 5, yet he was gone for about 15-20 minutes. I honestly thought he had left. Eventually, I got up to find him & ended up running into him. Again, he was nice, I'm guessing he lost track of time. The Atmosphere: Your typical Mexican restaurant. They also had televisions all over to watch games. They also have a bar, and the night we went, there was a live guitarist playing classic 80's rock. The Food: There is sooooooo much on this menu. My wife and I continued to be amazed at how many food options there were. Eventually, we settled for the Texas Fajitas ($24.99 for 2). It comes with all the toppings of lettuce, pico, guacamole, with a side of rice. You also have a choice of flour or corn tortillas. This was REALLY good. I highly recommend. We ended up having enough to take home for lunch the next day. Overall, the experience was cool. Check out your mailbox for any additional coupons. Every bit helps. read more

My family and I order take out from this place often and it's always delicious and well priced! Fast services and good food highly recommend

Been here 6 times and can't believe it's not 5 Stars. Consistent staff/waitresses and the food is the best in the area. Been to all the Mexican restaurants around Monroe and Winder and the atmosphere and food here is the best. Try the Carna Asada and tell me that's not the most tender skirt steak you've ever eaten. It's marinated to perfection. It's our go too from now on. read more

Came here for take-out mainly for my wife, one of a few places she can eat at. (food allergies) Ordered 8 tacos 4 chicken for her and 4 steak for me. Hers is chicken and cheese only. Mine I told the lady "I want everything, lettuce, tomato,cheese, pico, & guac". Total was 32.00 which I felt was a bit high. I almost canceled order but I told them to go ahead but I wouldn't do it again. I was not rude but I did let them know I thought it was high. Of course when I got home my tacos had no cheese, lettuce, or tomato. What restaurant makes tacos without those three things? Also no guacamole. Paid 32.00 and can not even get it made right. read more

The food was really taste and the portions were pretty generous. We really enjoy the live music...the whole ambience was on point. The service was very attentive. We will definitely come back!! read more

Maybe I'm spoiled and know what real Mexican food tastes like... but this place is just ok. But for the love of cheese drizzle... add some seasoning to the Fajitas!! They are so bland, they barely even taste like meat! read more

My Sweetie and I had an early dinner, 4:30pm. We were seated right away, chips & salsa on the table, service was fast and hot. We ordered beef tacos, pork carnitas, rice, beans and it was all so good! The carnitas had no fat, they were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I loved them, we will be back often. read more

Never again, 2 tortillas. Really? I'm sorry that's what comes with your order. I can understand you are cutting corners, but don't you believe this might effect your tip? An absolute dumpster fire.... read more

I've been to a lot of Mexican restaurants and I'm not sure why they do not season the shredded tacos. Bland flavor in salsa and also the actual chicken. Maybe the cook forgot.?? I'll give it another shot. read more

I went for a to-go order, waited a few minutes at the bar to order a margarita, typical sugary mix that's a little sour, but at $4.25, fair price and to be expected. They had live music and the bar was lively, which is probably why it took a while to get served. I ordered the pollo San... something. It's yummy. Chicken breast with rice, veggies and with some yummy cheese. The fried beans that came with it are spicy and I love it. By the time I finished with my margarita and paid, my food was ready. I'll eat here again. read more

El Ranchero - Pollo San something. (I was so hungry I forgot to look.) - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

The best Mexican restaurant I have ever eaten at. We have just recently moved to the Loganville area from South Georgia. My family loves Mexican and was worried about finding a place my whole family would enjoy as we were accustomed to our daily Mexican restaurant at home. We were promptly greeted and seated. The restaurant is very nice atmosphere with love music on one side and normally seating area on the other. Our waitress was quick and courteous. Our food was brought out and it was the best tasting Mexican food that the family and I have eaten. Easy to say we have found our new home Mexican restaurant and can't wait to go again for the delicious food. read more

Ordered the Texas Fajitas Nachos and made it a supreme. Looking at the picture I was overly excited!! I just knew I was about indulge in some awesome delicious nachos right??? Well wrong wrong wrong I got home and it honestly looked like slop!!! The meats had no flavor or char just straight up bland!!! Never coming back I love Mexican food not sure what the heck this is or was, but hey it's trash now only took two bites. I tried calling back maybe they could fix it, but I doubt they could so skip it trash can ate it, and I'm starving......... read more

Lord this restaurant is absolutely the best!! Position size is great and the nothing is over priced...but the best part the food is absolutely delicious. 2nd time here and I remembered why I came back read more

Love this place. Always reliable, fast, clean and delicious. Today I had the Burrito al roqueta with rice and charro beans. Daughter had bean burrito with cheese sauce. Wife has chicken and veggie quesadillas with rice and beans. Everything was perfect. read more

El Ranchero in Snellville is located right next to the seafood restaurant Ocean Breeze. I started thinking about some of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the Snellville area, and this place immediately came to mind. Unfortunately El Ranchero plays second fiddle to the immensely popular local restaurant chain known as Frontera, who probably takes away most of their business; however, I have decided to address some of the reasons why I think El Ranchero is a far better place to satisfy your craving for Mexican food. The inside of the restaurant is on the small side, but there are many qualities at El ranchero that make up for the lack of space. The fajitas at El Ranchero are outstanding. I try to order the Chicken and Beef Fajita combo almost every time I am at the restaurant. I don't know what is about the side of frijoles that comes with the Fajita dinner, but they are the best that I have ever tasted, so I usually mix them in with my tortillas. Also, the Fajitas here are less expensive than any other Mexican restaurant that I have ever visited. The margaritas at El Ranchero are another reason you should consider dining here instead of other Mexican restaurants. They are some of the tastiest margaritas that I have ever had, and they are probably the strongest too. I was here one time with a date and we ordered an pitcher of their Texas margaritas that was nearly impossible to finish. It was one of the largest and strongest margarita pitchers that I have ever had the pleasure of drinking. The wait staff here is great also. They actually have a paging system available at each table that allows the customers to hit a button that alerts the waiter of your tables need for another round of margaritas. Just make sure you don't go over board with the whole paging thing, unless you want the waiter to talk smack about you to his co-workers in this secret language they refer to as "Espanol." read more

El Ranchero - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

Been a regular at the 78 location for about 3-4 years now. I visit with off and on frequency but the quality of the food and the service is always spectacular. On a first name hug giving basis with two of the seasoned waiters and seen some of my favorites move on from the establishment. El Ranchero is THE spot for quality Mexican cooking in the loganville area despite the poor ratings some people give them here. Though I will admit the live music on Wednesday-Saturday is tuned far too loud for the mediocre quality of the musician in question and the small space allotted. I would love to come in on Thursday with great frequency but wind up going to alternate restaurants because the volume of those amplifiers is too much for the small space of the bar area. I wouldn't mind his terrible singing if they turned the volume down just 25% on him so you could hold a conversation with people at your table. People's complaints about this ARE warranted. If you intend to sit in the bar area Wednesday-Saturday evenings around 7:00PM be prepared and I hope you're into timeless classic Phil Collins and others being ruined by a wailing drunkard that can't help but yell expletives into the microphone to rile up the gaggle of drunken women that follow him to his gigs. That being said I still give this establishment a 5-star. Terrible music for most of the evenings in the week aside the restaurant is superior quality. I love every plate they bring out and set in front of me and have had 90% of the menu to date. Personal favorites are their burro de la roqueta, and tacos del mar. Never had a bad plate of food, and their alcohol is fairly priced. (Apart from margaritas, but it's fair practice to mark those up pretty high so you can charge less for beer at mexican restaurants) Everyone I've ever taken here always wants to return frequently. read more

I think I had Mexican sympathy cravings tonight. So a quick trip to El Ranchero was in order. The service here is great and the food does not disappoint. One and a half burritos later my cravings were fully satisfied. You can get in and out of here quick so no worries if your time is pressing. read more

El Ranchero - Burritos Mexicanos - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

While the food was wonderful, the service was not as pleasant. The waiter was neglectful and when we were waiting to order our food, he was near the kitchen goofing around. I am not sure I will return. read more

I am a fan of their food, but service really stinks...especially when I've gone on days when they aren't busy. I typically sit at the bar and they don't tend to come back and check on their customers. I literally sat there anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes at the bar with another gentleman and no one checked on us. I literally had to flag someone down. However, the staff is nice, but really needs to work on customer service. It's hard to tip the average when like that. Here's a plus, their chicken soup is a top 5 for me!!! read more

Will not return! Food was cold. Salsas were bland. One had oregano or something that was not good in the salsa. Service was good and prices reasonable. Would rather pay a little more and get decent, hot food. read more

I come to this bar on the regular basis ! I love the bar staff and the food ! The bar is great When they are attentive and ready. But going to the bar before 4pm be prepared to wait on service. They don't check as often as they should. Also the owner seems to not like serving certain people. I've witness his interactions with myself and my company vs others and it's not the same, and he don't care to hide it. I come spend money here and I love the food. The owner just needs to look like he enjoys serveing EVERYONE! Besides that, best Mexican food in Loganville read more

Waitress nice but food was so mediocre and bland. You don't get the option of beans & rice it's either or. I will probably never eat here again. The food just wasn't good at all. read more

Very strange place. The restaurant has what appear to be molded booths with all sorts of traditional Mexican scenes, very Disneylandish. They are pretty- I'll give them that- but the booths only cover part of the restaurant. Then there is a huge blank space and beyond that a few tables making use of the banked seating left by the previous restaurant here. Decor should make a nice backdrop to the food and enhance your experience. They failed on both. Chips were good, salsa too. The service was quick and friendly. I ordered chili rellanos that came covered in some sort of bland unappealing cream sauce. I decided the sauce was to counterbalance the chicken stuffing which tasted like someone had knocked a bucket of salt over in it. I really wanted this place to work. We came there often when it was Salamandra. Alas it's not to be. read more

I have been a long term patron of both El Ranchos' in Loganville because of their convenient locations and in despite of their below average Mexican fare and low quality chips. Most recently I had their "super supreme chicken fajita nachos" and was severely disappointed. For one, they loaded the nachos with iceberg lettuce, which combined with the queso to produce the most disgusting, slimy texture. Secondly, the nachos were light on toppings I expect to receive on super supreme nachos. There were no peppers, no olives, no jalapeños, few beans, and a dab of sour cream and guacamole. Lastly, El Ranchero needs to change their definition of what a fajita is. I expected sautéed onions, peppers and chicken on my fajita style nachos. What I received was grilled chicken with slices of raw onion. On this same occasion the service was very poor, my friends and I will not be back. Why waste time on them when there are so many other choices in the area? read more

Worst experience at a Mexican restaurant ever! We were forced to sit in the bar area because we had 12 people. Our waitress was fantastic. Unfortunately we couldn't hear her, or each other because the absurdly loud music it was terrible. One of the children in our group with anxiety had to go sit in the car with an adult because they were completely overwhelmed by the noise. Also, the "musician" shouted out curse words during the "music" constantly. The manager was rude and condescending when we complained. I do not plan to ever come back. Between all out tabs we spent almost $200, for a terrible experience where we could not even talk to each other and several of us left with headaches. read more

Had El Ranchero for dinner on Wednesday. It was ON POINT! Finally it was the flavors we were looking for, and the food was fresh. I must be in Loganville every week, so I'll definitely be back to keep giving them a chance. read more

El Ranchero - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

I wanted to like this place, but I didn't. The service was great, the salsa was okay, the food was disgusting. I got the Chiles Poblanos. They're almost impossible to mess up. This place managed it. The peppers were topped with some kind of tasteless orange mess (never mentioned on the menu). I couldn't scrape it off as there seemed to be gallons of the stuff on my plate. I asked what it was, but never got an answer. I couldn't get down more than a few bites, and the staff didn't even question that I refused to touch my plate. read more

We (party of 11) ate there last night & the service was awful! Our waitress came with a tray of drinks to the opposite end of the table than she should have & we had to pass drinks all the way down to the other end. She also handed a large cheese dip to my son for him to sit down & it was very hot & she spilled it all over his hand, no apology or anything! Took forever to get our food! Ordered 2 waters when we ordered our drinks & finally got one of them on our way out! We've been eating here for years but I think it's time to try a different Mexican restaurant. read more

My family loves going here. My twins cannot get enough of their rice and beans. Finding a Mexican restaurant that can actually make decent rice is hard to come by. They have a wide range of options to choose from, some more traditional than others. They have always been willing to change items for us or the kids. The service sometimes could improve but it's not always easy to find good servers. read more

Great Mexican food! And staff too, they always remember us and what we love to have! Best fajita nachos and soup and carne asada tacos hands down! We go every Thursday and have great food and great live music! read more

El Ranchero - Another great night at El Ranchero! - Mexican Near Me - Loganville, Georgia

I'm generally not a huge fan of Mexican chain restaurants (especially the fast food ones), but this place is different. Love this place. Great Margaritas, great food, great prices. Atmosphere is good and on some nights they have live music. read more

Cannot explain how much i love this place! Every thing is delicious! The service is great! The location is perfect for me because i live 2 min away! Every time i order its done right. Never had a complaint. Recommend soo many people and everyone ive taken has loved it! read more

Good food. Great salsa. Lunch specials. Usually pretty fast service. Love the chimichangas there. Fajitas good too !

ordered through doordash, and my order was wrong. food was okay. definitely won't order Togo again at least.

I hate to write a bad review because the service and food was okay, but I was a little off-put by the extra charges on my lunch today. I ordered a small queso and 2 soft chicken tacos a la carte. I wanted only onion and cilantro on the tacos (not the lettuce and cheese it usually comes with) and a side of sour cream. Each taco should have been $2.25 a piece and what I was thinking, maybe $1 for sour cream. When I got my bill, I was alarmed that the two tacos were actually $8!!! They literally charged me for cilantro/onion and sour cream!! Of coarse like I said I always know I will pay extra for sour cream, but to charge double the price I was thinking because of onion and cilantro is just CRAAZY!! Now, the main reason why I wanted to Mexican for lunch, is because its cheap and fast. If I would have know that the $8 lunch I was prepared for was actually $13 I would have NEVER went to this place!!! I wish I would have had a different server, then maybe this whole thing would not have happened. I will not be visiting this place again (there are so many Mexican restaurants around, on to the next one) read more

Hands down our favorite Mexican resturant! No Mexican restaurant in town compares. Yummy margaritas!!

The service and food is good. I've had the Mixed Fajitas, Chicken Burritos, etc. My favorite on the menu, chicken nachos .
