***DISCLAIMER FOUND A SMALL FOLDED NAPKIN MIXED IN MY FOOD***
I visited El Ranchero today with friends and unfortunately had a disgusted experience.
From the moment we arrived, the waiter appeared unfriendly despite the restaurant being nearly empty, only one table upon our arrival. When he took our drink order, I requested an agua fresca de tamarindo and politely asked whether it was made from pulp or a powder mix. He confirmed it tasted good but didn’t answered my question, however when it arrived it tasted overwhelmingly like sugar and lacked any tamarind flavor. I understand many restaurants do not make aguas frescas fully from scratch, but it should still have a balanced and recognizable taste. I then asked for a water, which was forgotten until I reminded him. The waiter just looked annoyed the entire time we were there and my friends asked me if I wanted to leave because it seemed like he had an attitude with me, I told them it was fine.
I ordered an alambre. I only ate a small portion at the restaurant and finished the rest at home. Near the end of the meal, I discovered a folded napkin mixed into the food, which was extremely concerning.
This was my third visit, and each time the staff has been rude towards me or my family. I also have friends and family who have experienced similar service issues. I genuinely want to support local businesses, but both customer service and food handling standards need significant improvement. I will no longer visit this restaurant, I am beyond disgusted by the napkin in my food. That napkin was purposely folded and mixed in with the chicken and steak. I can’t understand what drove the waiter to do such a thing. Asking what a drink is made of is not a valid reason to catch an attitude. Is it because I was talking to him in Spanish? Idk I am Mexican so that’s why I spoke in Spanish to show respect. I’m confused on how I could have caused someone to contaminate my food.

Tried the lunch special Arroz Con Pollo today, very tasty and good portions for only $8.99, we got it to go this time, they were busy for a Sunday lunch. Attached is their menu.

Just moved to this area & am finding out there’s not a lot of choices for food take out. A co worker told me the Mexican restaurant in Murfreesboro is good. Not too sure after reading others’ reviews. I found it to be actually pleasantly surprising. The ordering was easy, food came super fast & everything was very good. The lady who took my order could have been a little more friendly as I’ve never been there before & their menu is huge, needed a little time to decide, you know. Overall I was happy with my experience. I ordered the chicken chimichanga & my husband had the steak quesadilla.

Let me start by saying the corn chips were very very stale and it only gets worst .
As a tiktok influencer, I usually try to give restaurants really good ratings if it’s at all possible. I’m glad I did not put this one on tiktok in one sense, but I’m sorry I didn’t in another because this one would get an absolute no, never, totally tasteless food at best. The host was very alooth and look as though I had offended him for coming in. The cashier was very cold. No smile. No thank you, not even close to welcoming. As far as the cashier, she was just there as a body to collect money.
I have not felt so unwelcome in a restaurant in a very long time. I called the order in and this is what’s important to me also. I was very clear in asking if they had chili poblano I was told yes I specifically asked. We’re talking with meat correct? I was told yes. I picked up the order and came home. Needless to say it was chili relleno. And the absolute most unflavorful unrecognizable chilling relleno I have ever had in my life. I called and the host answered the phone and I asked him about the chili poblano. He told me that they did not have ground meat, or any meat to put in the chili so I was just given the chili relleno.
Would I attempt to go back to this particular restaurant? I will. I normally do. I Will go and give one more chance but only as a. sit-down patron to see if there’s a difference in the treatment or food. But as far as this takeout order, I would never order another takeout at this particular restaurant. and it’s going to take a lot to see if I can get through the lack of smiles, negative energy, and the cold and aloofed behaviors. I really want to be fair with these people but the food is not good on the takeout side.
As much as I wanted that to be the end of my critique, I tasted the flan that I purchased just a moment ago. I don’t know who had the bright idea to put chocolate syrup as opposed to a caramelized sugar over the flan and to use curdle milk. Yeah I don’t think I will be going back in here. Not even to do a sit down for a review. This is outrageous and the health department needs to go in to see why they’re serving curdled milk flan.

No napkins or plastic fork or spoon with a dinner of fajitas and extra chips and dip with a fried ice cream. I thought they forgot my fried ice cream, it was in a separate bag that was filthy with a fly in it, and the fried icecream was awful looking , not like last time when i got it to go, i vommited looking at the fried icecream messy desert! I will never come back here again, I sent my driver out to get my refund now

The food was okay but was pretty lazily prepared. Instead of dicing the tomatoes on my friend’s burrito they just put a whole tomato and lettuce on top when it should have been inside it. The tamales were pretty good.
