    I was very happy with my meal. I had a shrimp burrito with all the vegetables, the pico de gallo, sliced cucumbers, guacamole, chips, and a cup of Tecate beer. The prices were not listed, and I just trusted the owner. Total came to $13 plus la propina. You cannot go wrong eating here.

    Chicken burrito with a side of rice and beans

    Locals recommend this restaurant, so we stopped in for a quick bite. They had chicken grilling outside, and a musician playing music. This is definitely a little hole in the wall. I had a couple of few items on the menu. They greeted us with complementary chips and salsa's. I ordered a Horchata which was really good, I also ordered a torta, quesadilla, burrito, and chicken with french fries. I would say it was a bit pricey. I ended up paying around $10 for each meal and a drink. Overall the chicken was the best thing we tried.

    We have come here several times over the past couple of years. Huge variety, good food and big margaritas! Today I had Huevos Rancheros that was outstanding. My wife likes the tacos. We always buy a dozen flour tortillas to bring home (they are so fresh and good). The owner works hard in making sure all goes smooth. We highly recommend Molcas Tacos.

    I was strolling down Calle B, in Los Algodones, Baja California, in search of tacos, specifically tacos de tripas. Although I had my heart set on tacos de tripas, when I saw the smoke pouring out of the wood-fired grill, on the sidewalk in front of Molcas Taco Shop, and saw the chicken cooking on the grill, I immediately changed my mind and walked up to the counter, and placed an order for two chicken tacos, with everything. Birria, menudo, tacos de pollo, asada, paastor, lengua, camaron and pescado, but not a word about chicken tacos! Yet, the chef is grilling chicken in a Texas hibachi on the sidewalk? Go figure... only in Los Algodones. Anyway, when I saw him grilling chicken, I couldn't resist ordering a couple of chicken tacos. Like most small restaurants in Mexico, Molcas Taco Shop is open to the street, and the furniture is gaudy, plastic tables and chairs. They don't have a menu, instead their offerings are posted by colorful, hand-printed signs, hung from the ceiling and posted on the walls. You figure out what you want, and then you order it and pay for it at the counter. They don't always have everything that's posted, as that's just the way it is. What an outstanding meal for $2.50, U.S. dollars! For that small price, I enjoyed a bowl of fresh tortilla chips, red and green salsa, a plate full of salsa, cabbage, cucumber slices, diced red onions and limes, and two of the best chicken tacos that I've ever eaten. Such a bargain! Although the majority of today's customers were American and Canadian tourists, Molcas Taco Shop serves authentic, Baja-style, Mexican cuisine, served by some of the friendliest people that I've ever met. This place not only serves delicious food, but the staff is absolutely wonderful. Molcas Taco Shop is a gem, and a visit to Los Algodones wouldn't be complete without enjoying a delicious meal at this friendly taco shop.

    They give you all this for free.

    Expensive and mediocre food. Very unfriendly service from the short, bald guy. Margaritas were awful.

    Great food and service. The chile rellenos were especially good. All fresh made and served with salsa and toppings.

    And the tray they bring over to you with cabbage, cucumbers, lime, guacamole, salsa and hot sauce along with chips, that's a meal in itself.

    Stopped here for dinner on our way through Yuma and it was delicious! From the chips and salsa to…read moreboth our meals!! We will eat here again whenever we come to Yuma next!! The restaurant was small but very clean and the employees were nice. Thank you!

    Nov, 2025. Yuma, AZ. My husband and I were traveling between Palm Springs, CA and Tucson, AZ, and…read morewe decided to eat lunch in Yuma as this was roughly the half-way point on our journey. Given the proximity of Yuma to Mexico, we decided that we wanted to eat "authentic" Mexican food. We then turned to Yelp to identify Mexican restaurants with good reviews and in close proximity to I-8, which is what brought us to Tacos Mi Rancho. The restaurant was easy to find, but every single parking space was already taken; we were able to park on the adjacent side street for free and without incident. The restaurant was busy but there were a few small tables for two available. We were greeted promptly by our friendly waitress, and we were given menus and she took our drink orders. Another server immediately brought a bowl of tortilla chips and tasty salsa (gratis). My husband and I both ordered from the "Senior Citizen Portions" menu for those aged 62 Years and Older. All entrees include beans, rice, and salad for $12.50. (Note that the entrees that we selected, as well as some other menu offerings and pozole, are on special on Friday's, the day that we visited. They were $10.99 each). My husband ordered #11, two chicken enchiladas, while I got the #12, one chili relleno/one rolled taco. I also got a horchata (a sweet and creamy non-alcoholic beverage made primarily from rice, cinnamon, and vanilla), which was served in a huge glass with ice; no refills ($3.99). We split our entrees, and all of the food was well-portioned and tasty. We felt that the meals were a good value. We were also pleasantly surprised to find that the tastes were similar to those at our local Mexican restaurant back home in Virginia. The restaurant is in an old, nondescript building, but is tastefully decorated with a Mexican theme. It was clean, and workers wiped down the tables immediately after patrons left. One pet peeve was that the final bill that was given to us included only the total, so it was difficult to know whether it was correct or not. The total was $28.67, before taxes. We were able to reproduce this total as: 2 entrees at $10.99 each + 1 horchata ($3.99) + Yuma and Arizona taxes ($2.70, @ 10.41%). Overall rating: 4.5, rounded up to 5.0.
