“We do recommend El Patron but we had a bad experience recently. My wife and I picked up an order to go consisting of Chicken flautas and Enchilada a La Crema chicken. We had to throw everything in the trash because the entire order tasted like fish. It was absolutely disgusting and very disappointing because we have had good food there before. In fact, El Patron is normally our go to in Pinetop. Luckily, we only ate a small amount and did not get sick.“

“I've been enjoying el rancho restraunt pretty much my whole life the sisters are so nice and even had to babysit me a few times I've learned over the years for that I am sorry..lol.. but really everytime I go up i don't hesitate and head there the very 1st day im there the food is always the best and always has the best fresh chips and salsa i cant get enough of then I recomend getting a cheese crisp to go with for my appetizers then I always get the bean and cheese burrito I'm one of those simple eaters that don't like to change it up for as long as I can remember and thats since the 1980's so if your ever in pinetop you must try el rancho you won't regret it I always leave stuffed and with a chocalate mint when I leave.. the sisters aka the owners will make sure you enjoy everything and will treat you like family.. thanks for all the positive memories el rancho you really are the best“
