It’s a no for me!
While I love a good family oriented places a kid alone taking orders and serving food isn’t my ideal restaurant experience. (Even though he was nice) & no adult even acknowledge our presents.
So let me get straight to the point; the chicken empanada was empty. And the chicken had no flavor, I was giving boiled shredded chicken & there was no cheese in it either. On top of the shell of the empanada being the best part of my food.
My tacos were a negative three, because once again I had very little flavorless chicken in it and I have never had a corn tortilla that was half cooked and only once per taco. I was so thin I couldn’t even roll it up because it was falling apart.
To top it all off I was charges .75 cent for a tiny dollop of salsa that wasn’t even hot or has flavor.
But yea it’s a no for me, I would not recommend.
Please try harder and give the people food and flavor it would be much appreciated

We got a trio of beef empanadas, a trio of chicken empanadas, pork quesadilla, and sweet golpe
The sweet golpe was the best part.

Been meaning to give this place a try for a while, and glad we finally did. Keep in mind that this place is carryout only. The cuban sandwiches were delicious, and the empanadas were probably the best we've ever had...lots of flavor and not greasy at all.
Good customer service and just a nice experience all-around. Looking forward to coming back and trying some of their other offerings.

Completed an overdue trip to Mi Rancho tonight. Overdue since it's right up the street from work. I am a big fan of Caribbean flavors and small business so I was hyped. Started with a chicken empanada. Little light on the chicken but perfect crust and flavor was silly good. The sauce on the side sets it off perfect. We're off to a good start. I went with the chicken, sweet plantains, yellow rice and fried cassava. Presentation was elite. Everything on the plate was a hit. My daughter got the mofongo with shrimp and plantains . Another winner. There's a lot of lettuce and tomato on the plate, which she didn't eat, but she got more than enough out of this meal. My wife got the Sweet Golpe sandwich. She is not someone who takes easily to new things, but she was very satisfied with her food as well. Whoever is in the kitchen does not play. The staff was very friendly and appreciative of our business. Most places give you food. Some cook it and serve it with their whole heart. Mi Rancho is the latter. The only knock is if you eat there, you have to sit outside. Flies were a bit of a nuisance. In conclusion, quality experience. Food presentation, taste, service all A+. And a menu with more stuff I want to try. The best thing you can say about a food spot is "I would go back." I definitely am. Chofan up next.

Much like the mysterious case of the disappearing empanada meat from the previous review, my empanadas seemed to be playing a game of hide and seek—and winning. If there were 2 or 3 tablespoons of meat in there, I'd be shocked. Honestly, if you're going to be that stingy with the filling, why not make the empanadas a third of the size? At least then, it wouldn't feel like I was just buying overpriced dough pockets.
Then there were the Cuban sandwiches. I took a bite and immediately wondered, 'Where’s the meat?' It was a flavor journey to nowhere, except maybe Saltville. No mustard, but somehow still overly salty. And the bread—oh, the bread—was a soft, soggy mess, probably because it was too thin to withstand the whopping five-minute drive from the restaurant to my house.
The worst part? I could have overlooked the flaws if this pork scarcity and lackluster bread were accompanied by a lower price. Pork is less than $2 a pound, yet you charge $12 for this sad sandwich? It’s like paying for a luxury cruise and ending up on a rowboat.
Bottom line: I was really hoping to fall in love with this place, but it’s hard to build a relationship on empty promises and empty empanadas. Even at half the price, I’d still swipe left on this one.

I ordered a bunch of empanadas for a party online. The restaurant is quaint, the food was ready exactly when they said it would be and everyone at the party loved them.

I really was hopeful for this place. I see the Facebook post all the time and read the reviews, everything looked amazing. I finally did some chores in the area so I stopped by. While I appreciate that you want to incorporate the family to the business, however the child giving me my food and fork was wiping his nose with his hands. I started eating on my way home. I bit into the 1st Empanada with Beef and was like where's the beef, so I bit through a few more bites of dough and there was only like a tablespoon and a half of meet inside. I Then bit into the 2nd Empanada hoping the 1st was a fluck. NOPE! It had even less meat, the person who made them should be fired. I've had Empanada at other Dominican stores in York and they were stuffed with meat. I waited till I got home to try the yellow rice. It is clearly boxed Goya Yellow rice, not freshly made. I know boxed vs fresh rice on any given day. I am very disappointed, I've been wanting to try them for so long! I'm trying to figure out how to post pictures so you can see.
