Ordered carne & cheese ONLY burrito, specifically withOUT beans/rice, but it was packed full, rendering it inedible
Because it was drive thru, error not discovered until too late…
In ten years, this place hasn’t changed the great food or friendly service. It’s gotten an upgrade remodel a few years ago, and the prices went up a little. Still the best deal going for real street tacos in Westminster.
Pictured here is the nice little self-serve condiment bar. I like to load up on the limes and carrots. Not all street taco places will let you do that, but Tacos El Rancho has it going on. 😉
Or…you could go right across the street to Del Taco and get less food for your ten dollars. That’s less tasty and less healthy, too. Nah.
Eating good menudo is like eating life itself — it gets me going on weekend mornings regardless of how many drinks I downed the night before; the sensation of menudo gently brings me out of a nauseous, head-splitting, hung-over stupor and convinces me that today is the day I will accomplish great things and become a great man.
The magic isn’t just with the simple broth, which is similar to red pozole — just red chiles, epazote (like oregano, but more pungent and peppery), onion, and garlic. Pozole does not have the same impact on me as menudo, so I’ve concluded that it must definitely be the organ meat that makes menudo special. The nasty chunks of cow stomach that have been simmered low-and-slow in the aforementioned broth until they become tender enough to chew will take on the flavors of the surrounding broth like a sponge. There’s something about the soft mouth-feel and assertive flavor of this meat combined with the chiles and seasoning that kills hangovers dead.
During my early morning visit to Tacos El Rancho, their menudo had me in a hypnotic trance — I could not stop spooning the broth into my mouth. It accommodated a huge pig trotter in the middle of the bowl, and the lava-like red broth was medicine. Each bite brought me closer to the light. I’ve maybe had finer bowls of menudo, but I never stopped to think to write about them like this one.
The service is 9/10
clean 9/10
This spot is great for a quick bit not for a dining
