Seafood lovers will find themselves enchanted by dishes like Seafood Fajitas, Camarones a La Mexicana, and the uniquely refreshing Tacos Pescado — where the traditional cheese is replaced with creamy avocado, adding a velvety texture that elevates every bite.

A standout feature that garners frequent praise is the restaurant’s generous portions, which deliver exceptional value without compromising flavor. Guests repeatedly mention the combo meals as an excellent way to sample a variety of flavors—from the crispy Taquitos to the hearty Burrito and the zesty Chips and Salsa. Pair your meal with one of their signature margaritas like the iconic Cadillac Margarita or the classic, perfectly balanced Margherita for a truly festive dining experience.

Vegetarian and vegan diners are equally well catered to here, with thoughtfully crafted options such as Spinach Enchiladas and Vegetarian Enchiladas that don’t compromise on authentic Mexican flavor. The salsa served with the nachos is notably distinctive, tangy and fresh, offering a compelling twist that sets Rancho Viejo apart from many other Mexican eateries.

    I look forward to coming here every time I’m in the area. The staff is friendly and the food is excellent! The menu has a lot of options, I recommend getting a combo meal to try as much as you can! We got two combo meals and it was about $27. Super delicious and affordable!

    Picked up some takeout, everything we ordered was good and the service was excellent. We thought it was quite nice to have so many choices on the menu and were glad to find such a nice local restaurant to support. We would come back and try more!

    An excellent unexpected find. The place is a little run down, but the food and drinks were great. The staff had family on site and a crying baby could be heard occasionally, but the service was great and the prices were reasonable. They sell pitchers of margaritas that are a great deal and very authentic. Very delicious and a good experience overall. Lots of locals in attendance. Steps fron our hotel.

    This was some of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten, I can't think of any complaints, it was just perfect and enjoyable! Plenty of tables, easy to get to right off 101, and easy parking. We had a vegetarian burrito and a Rellano Burrito, both amazing.
