Comfort food! Lots of flavor and service is friendly! Place has about 8-10 tables simple decor, nothing flashy. I was a little disappointed with their Tallarin Verdi con Bistec. Steak had good flavor. But was VERY thin, and the pasta was too mushy. But their roasted chicken was good. Lots of nice flavor. A little on the dry side. But overall yummy. This is a good solid lunch place. I will definitely try them out again! One big thumb up here! read more

Pésimo servicio llame para ordenar y nunca recibí mi orden 2 horas esperando el deliver nunca llegó y la mesada que antedijo la llamada me atendió mal y volví a llamar por mi orden dijeron que estaba por llegar y nunca lo recibí mal servicio read more

Always amazing food. When we gave them feed back about their arroz chaufa mixto that there is left chicken and beef on my order, they immediately corrected it. Thank you. Don't sacrifice quality for quantity. read more

I always enjoy ordering from here. The food is tasty and moderately priced. I have not dined in yet but I plan to and think the restaurant dining area looks nice. My only frustration is that the last two orders I placed of ceviche had very little fish and shrimp and way too much onions. It's my favorite dish and it's still tasty but I feel cheated. Still highly recommend Mi Ranchito for the friendly service and good food. read more

We ordered a meal from here for a group of movers on move-in day. The meal did not disappoint very healthy portions, and very solid Latino meal. read more

IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A FIGHT, come here!!!! They really feel they're doing you a FAVOR for serving you. I asked for two pupusas different ingredient, the waitress threw a drama about why I shouldn't ask for that. When I finally chose, she forgot my order, came to ask again. Food is really bad here, Chicharron tasted stale, bitter, worsa than that, the SERVICE SUCKS. The entitlement of the waitress is despicable. DO NOT COME HERE!!!! read more

Mi Ranchito - Pupusas. Pork was sour, I believe it was close to expire. - Peruvian Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

DO NOT ORDER TAKE OUT FROM HERE!!!!! I ordered a roasted chicken special with a side of plantains. I was told that it would take 40 minutes (I live less than a mile away) and it took them 1 hour 30 minutes. That's not the worse part... I receive my food and the plantains are burned and the chicken is not cooked all the way. Anddddddddd as if that wasn't the worse part, I call them to politely tell them about the issue and they do not answer the phone, called again they picked up and hung up on me. Honestly, you're better off going elsewhere... read more

Mi Ranchito - Peruvian Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Great food, never had an issue when dining in or ordering for take out. My favorite dish of theirs is the chicken stir fry or pollo saltado. They always make their food so well and are super nice every time I go in there. I'm always more than satisfied and full when I walk out of there. Delicious food all around! The restaurant is very low-key and nice inside as well. Super friendly and warm environment, no complaints at all. Love it! read more

I stopped going here after giving them so much business because their worker assaulted me and grabbed the sauce out of my hand, she ran over to my table from across the room and yelled "NO" I'm pretty sure I left the update here a while ago, there's definitely a picture of the rude worker. read more

Best Lomo. Flavorful. Aji sauce has more flavor than Fiesta's. Everything is numbered which makes for easy ordering over the phone. read more

Love this place! Awesome food and great service tucked away in Glenbrook mi ranchito we love you!!! Hey

This morning my son graduated from middle school , he asked me to go to Mi Ranchito to have a lunch and celebrate, and that was bed decision, when we got there we asked for a table at the corner, the waitress told as that we can't take that table ,I told her that we are 5 and we will feel comfortable at that table ,she said that she doesn't feel comfortable to serve , will be to hard for her to put the plates down and pick them up , my family told her no worry about , we received the plates and we pass them to you, after she incise saying the same thing over and over , I dicided to go to somewhere else, very bed service, unprofessional stuff. read more

Well I would have wrote a better review if it's just about he food witch is pretty good. But the service we place an order online at about 9:15 and they close at 10pm they accepted the order then canceled it 15 mins later and then we try to call to see if they will let us pick it up instead of delivery and we get the busy dial tone then thwn we call back and the phone sent us strat to voice mail and this is still half hour before they close. We kept calling and nothing when if they just answered n explained it would been better instead just hide. read more

The waitress was not friendly. If you don't speak Spanish they look at you differently. The food was subpar.

We were really excited about this place because of the reviews. However, we were disappointed. One of us ordered the burrito and I got the pupusas. The rice with the burrito was ok. Our major gripe is the service. We received chips about five minutes before we got our food. Also, a party of six was seated 15 minutes after our arrival (we were a party of 2). They received their food first (1/2 of the party's order) before we received ours. Perhaps this might've been an off day? read more

Food is delicious . I'm from Boston and every time I visit I get mi Ranchito . I always order the sopa de camarones and tallarines verdes. My fiancé ( tall white guy) lives near by and I swear they know what he wants when he walks in! read more

Las pupusas, el lomo y el pollo saltado y bandeja chapina. Los que hemos probado mi familia.

The nasty waitress is no longer there. A much friendlier woman is there now and this place shines. Great value now that we don't have to deal with you know who. read more

On dec 9 I ordered takeout and requested the aji sauce which they never sent. I called back after telling the order taker of the missing item, they hung up on me. I called again and they treated me as if I was speaking a language they didn't understand. I'm done! Viva is the best food! read more

I can't believe the customer service I just received from what used to be a regular restaurant for my rommates and me. I had tried to make an order last night, but my phone service cut out in the middle. There must have been an issue with Verizon, as all my roommates' phones were not working either. I never finished my order, and was unable to call back before it had closed. I called today to make an order, and was then HARASSED by the lady on the phone. After accusing me of not picking up my food (of an order which I had not ever finished!) she was skeptical of my phone malfunction. Why would I lie!? I have gotten food here many times before, and am sorry to say I won't be getting it again. They have lost a loyal customer and a lot of business because of this terrible, accusatory interaction. Adios Mi Ranchito. read more

Good home cooked authentic meals, huge portions for me though. I'm eating port fried rice for three days. Cheese popusas were really delicious. Looks like the place is for locals who are emigrants from Peru and Latin America. Service is casual and simple, nothing fancy. It's not a fancy place in general, simple and good. read more

Good food, the worst service. I have been here over 10 times, eat in, and also got delivery, and the service is always bad. The food can take really long at times. But they have good food so if you can withstand the terrible service, you will enjoy the food. read more

My husband and I found this place accidentally, and then spent a year being grateful that we were living down the block from this GEM. Whether you eat in, pick up, or have delivery, the quality is consistent and the food is hot and delicious. The food isn't expensive, yet the portions are more than enough for one person (in fact, I usually save half of my meal for the next day and I have a huge appetite). Recommendations include the Lomo Saltado, Carne Asada, Pupusas, and any of the tallarines. To be honest, anything and everything here is good. I've never tried anything from Mi Ranchito that I wouldn't have been happy having for an entire meal. Oh, and don't miss the house chips, rice, and beans. DELICIOUS. read more

Just moved to Stamford and this place is right down the street. I tried it my first night here and I loved it. The service was fantasticly friendly. As soon as we sat down they brought us chips and salsa. The good kind of chips that you know they make themselves cause there's still a tiny layer of oil on them from being fried. You can also tell that this place is authentic because all their signs are written in spanish and they had spanish dancing competition playing on TV. (The menu looked very appetizing so it took us a moment to decide and the waiter came by 4 times in 7 minutes asking if we were ready to order. I like attentive service but sweet baby jesus, let me breathe!) We ordered the mixed ceviche, panes con chilies relleno, and pollo saltado. The ceviche was absolutely fantastic. it had a good mix of types of seafood, but basically only had one of each of the larger items: fish, shrimp, crab, clam, and mussel. It also had a good portion of squid, red onions, large Peruvian corn, and sweet potatoes. This was probably the highlight of the meal. The panes con chilies relleno was basically a sandwich of minced beef, peppers and onions with lettuce tomates and onions on a cuban bread. It was topped with their "special house sauce" which was very tasty. It was close to some kind of seasoned liquidy mayo. The pollo saltado was chicken with mixed veggies. It was huge for only $8 and also came with rice. They also served this with the house special sauce on the side to allow the diners to douse their foods in this creamy goodness. I'm so glad that this place is a 2 minute walk from my new home. Will definitely be eating here often. read more

UNSANITARY! DO NOT EAT HERE! Ordered breakfast plate, and found a piece of plastic in the sour cream. It appeared to be the cap from some kitchen container. A real choking risk and dirty. The manager shrugged it off and was upset when I told her to take the food back and prepare new plate. When we asked her to take the order off the bill, she became indignant and started yelling at us like it was our fault. Terrible customer service. Food is unclean, will make you sick. read more

We stopped in for beef soup and the pork pupusas. The food was delicious. Really liked the green sauce! It's my first time trying pupusas, I would have liked to see more pork filling (very little meat). The soup contained beef ribs, corn, and other veggies. Nice meal, will be back to try more dishes in the future. read more

This place is amaZing. I had the Peruvian paella and my wife had the seafood soup. They were delicious and a bargain. We are definitely coming back.what a find this place this is. Do not miss it. You will not be disappointed. I wish they were closer. The staff are delightful. read more

I have driven/walked by this place about 100 times and finally tried it last night. The food was delicious and I will definitely be back. I have had Lomo/Pollo Saltado many places in area, NYC, Port Chester but this was by far the best Ive had. Big Portions + Tons of flavor + small prices = great deal. read more

Second time here. Had the fried pork chop. I loved it. The presentation was on point and there are pictures on the wall of certain items. Makes you want to buy everything. If you're more than 5 people then call ahead. Small but nice. read more

This is the first time I've had Guatemalan food and for something that sells for cheap, authentic Guatemalan dishes, this one really takes you off your seat. Mi Ranchito is a known Peruvian restaurant here in Stamford and I love how their servings are so huge!!!! Price range is around 7-16 dollars and it's pretty cheap for something that can feed 2-3 people (not kidding). They also serve free nachos with great salsa before your meal and you can ask for free nacho/salsa refills. I can't even remember the name of what I got but basically it's all grilled chicken, steak, adobasado, sausage with rice and grilled jalapeño. This is with their salsa and home made guacamole. I've never tasted anything else so good. The flavors are very very rich and you'll leave craving for more! read more

Don't eat here if you want to live!! No one is wearing gloves even in this pandemic we going through. I ordered some take out food for pick up. I ate the food with my girlfriend and with in 20 minutes later we felt sick. We got food poisoning we were vomiting and with diarrhea. That's all the food we ate that day. We been sick three day's I would never eat there ever again. I should call the health department on them. You think people would more cautious on what they serve. read more

Bustling and convivial restaurant offering Peruvian, Mexican, and Guatemalan food. Good choice if you are in the area.

Bad Customer service on the phone when placing orders. I called in with multiple items on an order that required 2 credit card payments and 1 cash payment on delivery. I made that clear in the beginning of my order. The lady said to give her the full order and then later tell her what portion was to be paid in what way. I proceeded with the order and then she collected one credit card payment. When I prompted to say the next card was to be used with this portion of the order she said she can not take another card, I asked why? She had no concrete reason, only that she was too busy, and then hung up on me. This is horrible service as the company I was ordering for has ordered multiple times. read more

Omg ; I love this place wether is for breakfast .. Dinner or lunch. For breakfast I always get huevos rancheros (pic) .. And oh man everything is on point when it comes to the flavor. The service is beyond friendly!! You have to come to this place if you haven't yet !!! read more

Mi Ranchito - Huevos rancheros are the best for breakfast ..!!! - Peruvian Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

This place lacks professionalism if my order comes up to more than 30 dollars and I live in the same town you should be able to deliver to my location. As they do have delivery drivers even if I have to pay an extra fee. The food is also subpar it was a restar aunt I was trying out as opposed to Viva or Fiesta for Peruvian food. The food here is descent but the service just left a bad taste in my mouth for both 1 and 2 you should be able to deliver in all parts of Stamford considering you have 2 locations. read more

I wouldn't recommend this restaurant for hygiene and customer service reasons let's just keep there, I don't want to go through details.

Really amazing food. My husband and I love Peruvian food. This has become our favorite place!

Good food, great prices ... Good for take out. Been a costumer for quite some time but gotta say the quality of the food hasnt been the best lately, had a lomo saltado last week that came with mostly nerves barely any meat on it... , Milanesa de pollo came with lots of nerves as well... fried calamari were wayyyyyy over cooked , you could choke on it! They do deliver but often forget to bring the drinks you order. The prices went a dollar ( not bad) but you would expect same quality at least or better, not worse! Might start ordering from another Peruvian place . read more

Finally a reasonably priced restaurant in the city! (cheap actually). This is a Peruvian and Guatamalen restaurant which seems a strange combo but was great. I had an ENTIRE Talipia fried whole, with black refried beans, side salad and spanish rice for just $12. The fish was so moist, simple and delicious. My partner got a stir fry of chicken and fresh veggies over a bed of french fries and a side fo steamed rice for JUST $7.50! It sounds really strange but it was incredibly tasty. It's mobbed for lunches but the dinners are fairly quiet (or seem so at 8pm). Again, great place to continue visiting. read more

Two words. Lomo saltado Feeling hungry and want some hearty meat and potato goodness. This is the place to go! The good: Lomo saltado. I haven't tried anything else as this is my go-to meal! The bad: delivery. Expect a bit of a wait. You're better off ordering and picking up yourself. read more
