We came across this El Ranchito by chance when we were at an event nearby a couple years ago. It became our favorite location and have come back many times and will continue to do so. Food is always great and margaritas even better

Went for a work lunch and ordered the Mayan Treasure, which is the friday lunch special, without even looking what was in it! The gamble paid off, it was spectacular. A chicken burrito smothered with cheese and gree sauce,seasoned just right and the green sauce was super yummy. Need to go back every day of the week to try all the other lunch specials.

Every time I come to So Cal I have to have a meal at Avila's El Ranchito. The enchilada suiza is amazing and the wait staff always take such good care of me.

The food was delicious, we are vegetarians and vegans, but found lots of choices, and the server was fantastic! She was super friendly, and efficient too. The music was delightful too, the decor was so authentic.

**HEALTH/SAFETY HAZARD**. I’ve been a loyal customer of this location for many many years, I took my family here for a birthday recently and they served a 5year old the most rotten beef I have ever seen and smelt in my life. I don’t know how the cook didn’t smell it on the grill it was that disgusting. They served me actual rotting flesh and their solution was to remove the burger from the check. The manager said he will take care of the check after me and my entire party stood up to leave. I will never return to this restaurant or any other locations and I advise you do as well they are not safe to eat at.
