Avila's El Ranchito - Orange

Avila's is always a really solid spot for authentic Mexican food that tastes great everytime. My wife and I have been here multiple times. Their staff is always on point. Food always top notch and atmosphere is a classic Mexican style restaurant with real soccer games in the bar area. Great prices for the food and drinks. Will continue to visit this place anytime we're in the area.

Visiting and missing Mexican food, friends took us here and everything was so perfect! Excellent guacamole, spicy salsa, perfectly fresh ceviche, amazing shrimp dish with very large perfectly cooked shrimp, a michelada with the best seasoning, and our server was attentive and personable recommending his favorite dish when I couldn't decide. We ate on the patio amd it was perfect for talking and catching up. I will be back 1000 times!! Loved it!

The first couple of times here were great, but the last time they put our group in a back room, everyone who ate there had stomach issues that night and the next day and my credit card was charged twice (our groups meal and someone else’s). This has gone from a go-to spot when I am in the area, to a skip for the next time.

A beautiful restaurant with fantastic authentic mexican food.

The chicken soup is delicious. Chips are warm and fresh and the salsa is spicy but not gut burning.

The staff is always friendly and very attentive.

Beautiful place to eat bomb Mexican food

I have been coming here for over 30 years and I must stop in any time I am in CA. My favorite is Avila's Chicken Soup, second chicken tacos! With home made corn tortillas. Everything in the menu is wonderful@

This location is absolutely stunning, set in an old church with high ceilings that add to its charm. I've been to several Avila’s El Ranchito locations, and the food is consistently fantastic every time.

I enjoyed a refreshing summer margarita that went down much too easy! I had the combination platter of 1 crispy chicken taco and 1 chicken tamale served with rice and beans. Delicious and huge! The only minor drawback was that our server, while super sweet, checked on us a bit too frequently. It felt like we were being rushed, even though I know she didn't mean to. A little more awareness of the pace would have made the experience perfect. Still the staff was all super friendly and willing to help with anything!

Overall, this place is definitely worth a stop! The beautiful building, amazing food, and helpful team create a wonderful dining experience on a beautiful summer night!
