El Ranchero Mexican Food — Restaurant in South Gate

Went on my moms bday today the server was rude messed up like 5 times and didn't even apologize nor did she try to fix it my mom asked for no onion and when we told her they put onion she said she was just going to take off the onion but give her back the same plate people don't understand if someone doesn't like onion once it's on their food it tastes and smells very strong. She messed up my bfs order. she overcharged us we had to tell her and she had an attitude about it not to mention we waited about 45 min for our food and she had the audacity to say "you guys came at a bad time" horrible service...

Upon arriving, it looks like your small, typical Mexican food, mom and pop restaurant. Do not let that discourage you from trying their food. We were greeted very kindly and welcoming by the staff. They have a pretty broad menu with your typical dishes and other delicious items. I stopped by Sunday, December 15 with my girlfriend, and we were interested in trying a variety of items which did not disappoint. My only negative experience here was the restroom not being properly attended to . The food was brought to my table in a reasonable timely manner. Come try this place, I know will soon be...

Decided to give this place a chance, despite reading the reviews.

I regret doing so. The food portions are really small for what they are charging.

I opened the plates to make sure they were accurate. Upon doing so I realized that it was not sufficient and had to place more food orders to compensate.

Had to wait 30 plus minutes for the newly ordered food. By the time I got home, the other food was barely warm.

I understand inflation and whatnot, but this is just unbelievable. Sadly, their food was good but I can’t justify paying what I paid for, for the very little food...
