Established in 2006 It all started in the kitchen in 1966 when Mamá Avila brought the delicious recipes from Guanajuato, Mexico that had been in her family for generations. Over the years, Avila’s El Ranchito has grown to 13 locations in Los Angeles and Orange County. Each restaurant is under the personal care of a family member, guaranteeing the reputation the family has earned for treating our customers like part of the family. The Laguna Niguel location is owned by third-generation Avila family member, Marcus Avila who runs this location with his wife Katie. Loyal customers of other locations who have moved to Laguna Niguel now enjoy this El Ranchito in their neighborhood…stop in and see why!
Family-owned local restaurant chain offering homestyle Mexican dishes & drinks in a casual setting.

Hands down the best tasting Mexican food I’ve ever had! The flavors are perfectly balanced, rich and authentic without being overpowering. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making you feel right at home the moment you walk in. The staff are consistently friendly and efficient, providing top notch service every time. I absolutely love it here!

It’s a great day when you find another location to this epic Mexican food brand!
It’s a smaller footprint than other locations but that only adds to its ambience. The team works so in sync, like a family restaurant that the local community cherishes. Many regulars came and went and were greeted warmly. With everyone sharing the same enthusiasm to deliver a stellar experience; you’ll want for nothing and leave stuffed from delicious food.
Look forward to bringing my family to this location!

We were so blown away by the service and food here lately I wanted to share. We always eat outside because it’s so lovely, there’s a fountain and lots of room between tables which is ideal for a family with toddlers. The servers still checked on us regularly and are very good with kids. The food is fresh and delicious. The crunchy tacos are probably my favorite.

We arrived at the restaurant at 4:40. There were only a few other customers. From the moment we sat down the waiter was rushing us to order drinks and food when we hadn’t even looked at the menu. We felt rushed the entire time we were there even though it was a Tuesday early evening and the restaurant was only half full. We finished our meal around 6:00. The waiter came over and asked us to leave because he needed the table. The restaurant was still not full and still early in the evening. The food was not that great. We will not be back!

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants, this one is in Laguna Niguel. They have a huge patio that is lovely to enjoy year around. Their food is delicious & the service is impeccable!

Red sauce was a bit too tomato on the enchiladas and the chillie relleno. The Cadillac margarita was very weak. And the steak in the steak soft taco was a bit chewy. For this much money, I was expecting better food.

Ordered a chicken Tostada and they left out the tostada! No tortilla under a sloppy wet mess! The lettuce was cold and wet completely nasty textures together with runny wet beans. I worked in a family owned Mexican restaurant. They would never serve a mess like that. My own Uncle owned the Red Onion back in the day a nd he would be shaking his head no!
The chips and salsa were greasy snd the salsa was like they used Ketchup no fresh tomatoes! Just don’t waste $45 dollars like we did. Hubby hated his entree as well Camerones Vi bla.
