My boyfriend said as he took his first bite, “This is the best Mexican I’ve ever had.” Obsessed! Our new favorite spot for authentic Mexican food. Everything was fresh, homemade, good quality, and delicious. Service and pricing were excellent too. Definitely coming back.

Best Mexican food in Jersey City. The Enchiladas are amazing. Authentic Mexican Food and atmosphere. Fajitas are 👍

Amazing food, great people, plus a BYOB! What else can we ask for. We order lamb birria tacos and nachos rancheros. Both were phenomenal! The lady at the counter was so funny and sweet! I think I would have gone back just to laugh with her again and the plus is that the food also justifies another visit!

Place is an amazing hidden gem. So glad found this place. Only open for 1 year and change. The food is delicious and large portions unlike the other spots are here by name of taqeria. The service is amazing. The ambience makes you feel like you're teleported to mexico for true authentic feel.

Best family owned authentic Mexican restaurant. Loved everything I have tried and the pricing for the portions are great. It truly felt like walking into your grandparents home and eating a yummy home cooked meal made with love.

What a great find! Really a 4.5 Stars.. Stopped in for lunch. Ordered a shrimp burrito and churros. I could not believe how big the shrimp were. Really good, fresh and big portion. JUMBO Shrimp. Two different hot sauces were provided (hot and mild) the mild was really good. they even have a section in the front for take out which also looked really good. The only small issue was the service, hence not a 5 star review -- it would really need to be stellar for a 5 start review, but this was a really nice place for lunch.

This is the type of place you go to, to enjoy some no frills authentic Mexican. It’s a fun local spot with ample portion sizes. I had the huevos rancheros. Although my favorite was the tacos my partner got. They were amazing. I highly recommend that you go for the tacos if you come here.

Just ate here for the first time, I found this gem on google maps and had to try it! Let me just say it the tacos were juicy and bursting with flavor. Definitely recommend! Pretty fast service and friendly staff.

Excellent all around… If you want the best Tacos in JC you need to visit El Ranchero Taqueria!!

Looking for a Great Mexican food? This is the place!!! We were heading home to upstate NY...so we saw this on Google maps rated 4.9 ... those people who shared their experience were right!! We are so glad we stopped... We were greeted with a kind smile and a HOLA! We were seated and presented with a wonderful menu (see pics).... they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. We got there just a few minutes before a 11. (Just missed breakfast) sooooo.... We got chips and salsa with a side of guacamole...homemade fresh chips were fantastic!! Ask for the red sauce if you like hot... you gotta try it!! Our food came out and everything was hot and fresh. Mine was a surprise...I always say "surprise me"....I got tilapia with a sauce that was mild but full of taste. My wife she got the toastados...The whole experience was vibrate and tantalizing...you will not disappointed...(no te decepcionarás)

Most satisfying hearty meal I’ve ever had. A WHAT AMAZING COFFEE!!!!!!! Did not expect that at all. The people here treat you like family and the food feels like a warm hug. This place left me smiling 😘

Favorite Mexican in the area! (Yes even better than Taqueria Downtown) Authentic home cooked food (I saw them making loads of the salsa & sauces) with great options. I loved the Mexican quesadillas (fave and nice portions), tacos (birria, fish and chicken) & the enchiladas. You can also order for pickup which I may do more often. Big fan!

This restaurant is BYOB. The food tasted authentic. I’d definitely recommend the tacos over other things on the menu. Our waitress was a bit short with us. She looked overworked and definitely looked like didn’t want to be there. Probably having a bad day. It seemed like she wanted to rush us out of the restaurant. Overall, a decent experience and good food.

Their food and service were both amazing!!! We ordered from them at 10:00 am and asked them to deliver a huge order for 21 people by 12:15 pm. They were right on time and gave us so much delicious food. The guacamole was absolutely amazing and so fresh. We had Mexican colleagues try the food too and they gave their stamp of approval. Highly recommend ordering from here!!

Finally made it! There has always been long lines. BYOB place. Great Mexican food. You can ask for veggies in enchiladas if you don't want only cheese. The Jamaica drink is so good. So is the elote.
