Very friendly service. Food so good and tasty! We didn't want a lot of food. This was perfect. Super comes with sour cream too but I got it without.

El Ranchito Taco Shop is a very good Mexican restaurant for takeout, and the California Burrito was very tasty. In the past I have sampled their crispy tacos, roll tacos and other items with complete satisfaction, but I highly recommend their Menudo for flavor and the excellent way in which they provide the soup and all of the trimmings for dining at home.

Love the Poway location, and this is just as good. El Ranchito does a good job with taco shop cuisine. Many options, great salsa bar and lots of yellow cheese. The atmosphere was nice. For a taco shop it definitely felt like a sit down restaurant. - Their Carne Asada burritos are prepared in a crispy, dry fashion, which is how I prefer it. Nothing is worse than when biting into a carne asada burrito and having juice go all over your shirt.

We've been coming here for years and it's a favorite. I like the fish tacos and the taquitos. We always take home extra California burritos for lunch the next day. It can get very busy but it's always clean and the staff are friendly. I do recommend Taco Shop.
