Service here can definitely improve. Walked up and the 2 ladies were just talking away gossiping, then they jump once they realize I was waiting to place an order. Once I placed the order, I kept getting side eye from the lady who was mopping mid day but never said a thing to me. I can't read minds so either give direction or mop when there's no one around or better when closed. Too bad service was bad because the food was good read more

Rancherito's is, and has always been, on the low end of mid-tier Mexican. The value proposition was there though... It's not amazing food, but it was cheap and the portions generous. Not any more. $15 burritos? I'm out. I can turn 180 degrees, walk 50 feet and eat a much higher quality product at Real Taqueria for less. Reality check: If you're going to charge premium prices, the food had better have the quality to match. It doesn't. Not even close. read more

The employees messed up my order twice in the same night how does that even happen??terrible service and okay food. Wooildnt recommend.

Food looked and tasted like pig slop. I came in and ordered fries with shredded chicken and the cheese wasn't even melted, the chicken had no seasoning, and it just tasted bad. Had 5 bites before throwing it away. Waste of money, will not be returning. read more

Menu prices online are listed completely different than what is honored/offered in store. Thought their "specials" were good deals, only to find pricing to be nearly double what was advertised on their own website, while not including the advertised included drink. Easiest decision of my day was to walk across the parking lot to real taqueria. 10x better. read more

It's been a while since I've been to a molcasalsa (I don't generally go to restaurants any longer at all, unless it's to write a review here or, slightly more frequently, to get some food for a video, but for a time, I was at one of these joints at least once a week, if not more often, and sifted through nearly all of them of which I was aware in the valley. I vaguely remember a Rancherito's, long gone now, closer to me, that had a massive carnitas chimichanga on the menu, which looked really good and I always wanted to one day get for myself (I could not find it on the menu at this location, alas) and figured that might still be the case. But...I suppose I'm a tester at heart, so instead, I went with my standard order for a first time visit, which was the carne asada plate. Gone are the styrofoam clams, in favor of a metal pie tin with a plastic lid. Not sure how much we're trading up there, tbh. They only partially messed up the order, which I appreciated. The carne asada portion was three slabs of honestly kind of pasty looking skirt steak, not the usual cut up and charred on the flat top most places do. I definitely prefer the other way, due largely to a deep and abiding affection for the Maillard effect. The flavor on the steaks was fine, but this is nowhere near the best carne asada I've had and if I were to rank this entire restaurant with that as the baseline, it would be near the bottom. I figured these were a chain, but it was quite a sea change between this and the other location. Beans were fine, more or less the usual, albeit very skimpy on the cheese, while the rice had a faint sort of chemicaly taste, as if someone left it a bit too close to a bottle of spray cleaner. This is probably going to sound trite, but if I know one thing in this life, it's that the devil is in the details and as long as they keep slinging me out some massive tortillas warmed on a flat top, I will continue to think that whatever I paid (I think $13 for this) was worth it. Yes, the prices have gone up, but I still can't finish one of these plates without pushing myself. The efficient part of me also notes that I can simply halve the portion and have another carne asada burrito later, maybe the next day, if I'm smart about it, and so, that's what I usually do and did here. I usually head to Real Tacos when I'm in this area, as this parking lot is fucking nuts and I hate it, but while I was underwhelmed, I'd maybe consider giving this place another shot, though that one, if it were to happen, would be a make or break. read more

We love this place for their breakfast burritos! WARNING: They are huge and addictive. The ingredient's ratios are perfect and they provide plenty of salsa. We substitute the potatoes for beans every time and they always get it right! Highly recommend! read more

I've loved these guys forever, great staff, great food. My favorite divey Mexican food in Salt Lake. But $13 for a single burrito?? That's insane! read more

You will not find a better breakfast burrito. Vamos rápido to Rancheritos! They are so big you may want to share. Unless you're so hungry and or aren't part of a pair. You can get it with meat or vegetariano. The quality at this spot is muy bueno. Say yes to the pico and drive thru today. You're sure to be happier, is all I can say. read more

Rancherito's Mexican Food - Friendly service at the drive thru - Mexican Near Me - Holladay, Utah

Rancheritos: home of big burritos--seriously, have you seen the size of these things? With close to 20 types of regular and breakfast burritos, tacos, and more, this place has a pretty solid selection of food for cheap. It's open 24/7, making it the perfect place to go if you get the late-night munchies. Though the portion sizes are large, the quality isn't great. Not as bad as Taco Bell, but still fast-food quality. I got some really fatty chicken in my burrito and my stomach was getting upset not even halfway through. Would I discount Rancheritos completely? No. Like I said, it's great for the once-a-year post-midnight run. But with Real Taqueria right next door, you can do better for a real meal. read more

Cheese quesadillas always hit! So big and super good. Ordered DoorDash and they came so quick, service amazing.

I come to this place often and it's usually pretty good when you don't have anything else to eat at 2 AM, but I went tonight and the workers tried to tell me the system was down and they couldn't give me the food. There were multiple people walking out with bags of food from DoorDash and such and I tried to ask if I could order food and they kept telling me the kitchen was closed when it obviously wasn't. They all continued to laugh as they ate their food that was just cooked for them in their closed kitchen. The lady I was talking to in the drive thru said I don't know I don't even work here. So why are you the one talking to me?! Swag. read more

This place is the best, easily have eaten over 200 of their breakfast burritos! Personal favorite is the steak.

We always get super large portions of great food. lots of flavor and plenty of onions, peppers and good refied beans. Basically, this place is good Mexican take out and we always have leftovers. read more

I did not appreciate the way I was treated when I tried to get clarification at the window on what I had ordered. I tried to make it as clear as possible when I ordered that I wanted chips only with salsa on the side. When I was handed my order, I reiterated what I I had wanted and the woman who was helping me got an attitude and very exaggeratedly rolled her eyes at me. Meanwhile, I was calm, polite, and friendly. I understand language barriers are frustrating. I tried to be as crystal clear with my order as possible, and I was patient and friendly when I asked for clarification. If you are not clear what people are asking, please ask questions until you are sure you're on the same page as the other person. I didn't deserve the attitude or the eye rolling when the mistake was not mine. I'm sorry if I was misunderstood, but please just ask! If this is how you treat your guests, I'm done. I also tipped you, and the tip very much was not earned or deserved. I also overpaid since I was charged for something I didn't want and did not order, and no offer was made to correct the price difference. read more

We love their food! It's the best bar none. However, I walked in and 2 of 4 employees had their mask below their nose. Boycotting for now. read more

Keep forgetting my tortillas that come with the plate. Double check before driving off...

The cook spit his mint flavored chewing gum into my food. I ordered a less popular menu item at 2am through a third party dilevery company. I guess this caused the punk to throw a fit and spit in my food. I wont even mention the highly contagious virus going around... read more

I'm not a big fan of Rancheritos, however the other day I was craving fish tacos and they were the only place open in the middle of the night :x No regrets! I ordered 2 fish tacos and they were so big And delicious lots of flavor!!love it, will definitely be back to order more of these, I might try shrimp tacos too.... read more

Food was freshly made, & when it got dropped off to me the food was still hot. Definitely recommend getting food from here!

I've never been to the restaurant but I've ordered for delivery a TON of times, NEVER been disappointed. The Carne asada fries are my favorite. I usually add rice, shrimp, extra guac and sour cream, YUM. I guess one day (or middle of the night) I'll go in and sit down and eat but in the meantime I'll enjoy the great food I get delivered from this establishment at home. Highly recommend. read more

Idk if this is a fluke or not, but I literally found bugs in my bag...... lost my appetite as soon as I found it. Pretty unsettling ngl. read more

Rancheritos serves up a satisfying carne asada burrito to satisfy your Mexican fast food munchies. It's like time traveling back to your teens when pounding a massive meat filled burrito was always a good idea. Filled with steak, guacamole and pico, de gallo, it's a flavor packed beast of a meal--but you better be hungry to down it all. Make sure you get a container or two of the red hot sauce--it's not napalm hot, but definitely packs a spicy little punch. read more

When I want a big ole breakfast burrito I come here. For $7 you get a whopper of a burrito. I get the steak and cheese with sour cream. I order it with guacamole but never get it; they put sour cream in it but it's only at one end of the burrito. The inside dining area is dingy and the kitchen looks dirty but it is what it is. I'm sure there is better out there. read more

This is one of the best Mexican restaurants I have been to... I went initially because it was close to home, but I fell in love with their food. Their (Gabino and the crew's) food is far better than Betos or any other drive-thru Mexican food. My personal favorites are their breakfast burritos...never soggy...always piping hot and never light on the meat or good stuff. The rolled tacos are also pretty amazing. I am a huge fan of this restaurant and the people that work there are extremely friendly and professional. I have never been sick from eating here which I can not say about any other fast food Mexican food. They are safe in my book by all means and a personal favorite. The only thing to consider is calling ahead while you are on your way, they are VERY POPULAR so it pays to get your order in before you get there. I was so impressed with the food made there as well as friendships (also made there), I made my buddy Gabino a sweet lil' plaque to show my appreciation... AND WHEN YOU GO THERE You can see it!! Because you should! You will not be disappointed.... read more

Just got home and ate half of my carne asada fries. I saw a piece of meat that looked weird so I took it out and it was raw chicken. I am absolutely disgusted and will probably get salmonella now. Do not eat here, they clearly do not know what they're doing or are intentionally placing raw meat into their food. It was hidden under the guacamole and I have a hard time believing it was an accident. read more

There is flavor here. Might not be the most authentic, but I love Rancheritos. Used to be more affordable but that's inflation for u. It's a staple for a reason. read more

I like Rancheritos. They have a great quality/quantity/price ratio. A lot of people love the breakfast burritos, which I woild recommend. But I also really like their beef burrito, fajitas, and cheese enchilada. This location is consistent and has good salsas and hot sauces as well. I think you'll like it. read more

Many a late night have ended drunkenly chowing down with friends on an order of carne asada fries. Thank god for Rancheritos.

I usually work very late nights (and underestimate how hungry I'll be around 2 am) and Rancherito's is always open to greet me! I'm a sucker for the breakfast burritos (especially at 2 am) and I've never been let down! Always fresh and always delicious. Huge portions, and fair price. read more

I used to love this place for their rolled tacos and guacamole. Last time I ate there, I wished I hadn't. I don't think they'd changed their fryer grease in a month. I also had a churro which tasted like that fried it in the same fryer as the tacos. Yuck. read more

I have many fond, and many not so fond, memories of Rancheritos. Simply put, Rancheritos has seen some shit. And if you're in here at any time passed 12:00 a.m., you probably have too. You don't come to Rancheritos for authenticity, you might want to curb that expectation going in. You come to Rancheritos for highly addictive, sugar bombed, "Mexican Food" that hits the spot. As a Vegetarian, I'm usually cornered into the massive bean and cheese burrito. Although, back in the day I used to go in on the carne tacos (yum) and the huevos rancheros (double yum). Salsa bar is stacked and at your beck and call. While everything is good enough, I must say, the tortillas are actually hella bomb. Definitely elevates from your standard T Bell or Del Taco. Cheap, casual, fast and just a bit grimy. I wouldn't love her though if she changed. Please be nice to the workers here, they are literal saints and keep us happy and fed all hours of the night. :) read more

It's Rancherito's. Go in extra hungry with very low expectations and you'll be happy. These are my favorite things to order depending on my level of inebriation: (I left out the breakfast burrito because it's basically a potato burrito and I know everyone else loves them I just don't want to pay $6 for a bunch of weird potatoes in a tortilla) Super Nachos (THE BEST) with steak Cheese enchilada and beef burrito combo Carnitas or steak taco (decent sized, comes on 2 corn tortillas so I make two tacos out of one) Bean and cheese burrito Rolled tacos with cheese Horchataaaaaaaaa They always seem to forget something so definitely double check your order before you leave. And why are they so stingy with the green sauce?! I ask for extra, EXTRA green sauce and I get 3 *eye roll* read more

Food has always been good! But now they want you to order, then drive around the building to get your order! The lady working gave me attitude, as there were no signs indicating otherwise! So we had to drive around the building and wait in the parking lot, was told our food would be brought out to us. No, my son had to go inside, wait again to get his food!! Uneccepatable!!! Not a way to run business, to punish the customers for their lack of communication. read more

Moved here from San Francisco and have struggled to find 'mission style' authentic Mexican food ever since. While I didn't care too much for their guacamole or jalapeños, I custom ordered a burrito to make sure it had what a typical California burrito would have (minus potatoes, ew) and I was amazed to find a lot of authenticity in their food. The salsas were actually spicy and loaded with different flavors, the refried beans reminded me of my grandmother's, and I felt good old satisfaction after eating it. The staff is also super friendly and helpful. read more

Never follow special directions, make how they like. When you call they don't care and give zero apology or offer any type of resolution.

When ordering over app or online there's an option for "Special Instructions". They never follow, last order I asked for 6 green sauce across 3 items in my order. I received 0 sauce. 2 items had lettuce, I asked for it on the side, one small side of lettuce was received. Almost every location. I work at a bar so I order late. Never get it right. And I know they are simple requests which is why it's so crazy they never get it right. No location. They just need to get rid of the special instructions suction. read more

Food has almost doubled in price in the last few years, and now they apparently even charge you for salsa with your burritos?? They snuck in a $3 salsa charge without even mentioning it on a small two burrito order. I order weekly from rancheritos but won't bother anymore. Shady pricing is a deal break for me. read more
