I don't usually have time to write extensive reviews so I'll just say that upon arriving, we noticed the fantastic mural painted by a local artist. We were thinking "this is not your run of the mill Mexican place" and it wasn't. Delicious food, and good service. The owners care about their restaurant and it shows.

Terrible service. Too busy watching the 4iers game. I won't be coming back to the santa rosa location. The one is cotati is way batter.

Nice cute place. I've gone a couple of time and definitely prefer the cotati location but this location was closer to us today. We come and the server seemed unhappy to be there... my husband ordered enchilada suizas and I ordered camarones Colima. The enchiladas were cold especially the meat.. the reason I like to order the shrimp it's because they sauté the food and it comes out hot, well this one didn't. The food was so cold and the octopus and shrimp was so hard like if they were frozen! I was so disappointed. You would assume the food would be well done since we were the only customers. No wonder :(

Ummm where do I start? Came by here for lunch after getting massages down the street and there was no staff to be found. We sat down anyways and talked for a at least 5 min before we saw anyone in the place other than the couple sitting at a table eating. We both ordered the fajita salad and about 15 min the waitress brought us two bowls of lettuce with some tomato's and onion on it and walked away. My friend and I were very confused because we had no idea if they forgot the meat or what was going on. At least another 5 min goes by and they come out with my steak. Overcooked big strips I could barely tear apart. Maybe a couple thin slices of onions and that was it. No sauce no dressing, nothing. When the server came back 5 min later I asked if there was a dressing for the salad and she brings me what looks like a container of milk. It's supposedly ranch. I asked if they had any other dressing that went with the salad and she said. No. My friend asks for some salsa and this tiny little container comes back for us to use for a dressing. What a horrible meal. We had to get up and find someone for water, the food was terrible, and the service even worse. Will never go back to this place.

Asked for extra salsa and for three meals was given a half of a tiny 1 inch container-- what!!? Also ordered tacos - they were one bite tacos and had rice in them!? Who puts rice in tacos!? And just a VERY tiny dash of shredded chicken. Obviously the rice is being used as a filler. Would NEVER go back here. How do they stay in business?

I visited under the impression this was a part of the chain small though it is. However ownership changed. Minimal menu. Adequate prep. I will give it a few months to improve. The site has been the location of some really wonderful joints- Bistro 29,Mistral. Fond memories dashed opportunity.

Mi Ranchito Downtown is a great spot for lunch and dinner! We ordered margaritas, a torta, and a molcajete. The servings were great and service amazing!

Very nice Sunday afternoon to sit outside and have lunch. After a night of drinking we needed to go pick up our car, since we LYFTed home, and thought it would be nice to get some food downtown as well. I wanted Mexican food so we came here. First impression was that it is very clean inside and the art on the walls is beautiful. The service was fantastic and friendly and we could sit anywhere we wanted. We sat outside of course since it was a nice out. They keep the seating outside clean as well. I got the enchiladas and my boyfriend got the mucho burrito. I thought it was a fantastic meal. I loved the red sauce and I'm usually a green sauce kinda girl. The potatoes had a great flavor to them. I could eat them forever! I like that the chicken was not inside the enchilada so I can control the amount I wanted. I like cheese a lot so cheese enchiladas with a side of chicken was perfect. My boyfriends burrito was also great. I did not try it. He ate it so fast it was gone in just a few bites and when I got too full he ate the rest of my meal too. See pictures lol

Good food and atmosphere, service was a bit slow and they got our order wrong but corrected it without issue. Would go back again.

Been going to their Cotati spot for years and was eager to try this new location. My mom got there first during happy hour and ordered a couple guacamoles and a round of house margaritas and they were strong. I did end up having a second but tried the Granada margarita and it was delicious as well. All of us were very happy with our choices. Coctel de camaron, chile relleno, fish tacos, super nachos and camarones al mojo de ajo. It was empty when we got there but there was a steady flow of people coming in to pick up take out orders. A few more groups came in by the time we left. Service was great and we loved their "Pinch Covid" T shirts but were bummed they weren't for sale. Will definitely be back and appreciate not having to make the trek to the ultra buys Cotati location. I also want to come back for breakfast sometime soo too.

In and outdoor seating.. TV 's in room. Poorly laid out in my opinion. Simple decor Chile relleno is their style, cheviche $18 everything I expected.

For being 1 person working rhe lunch shift my server did an amazing job. She was polite, remembered everything and brought a box when we had asked about 20 minutes before we needed it.Very well done.
