Mi Ranchito Restaurant & Pupuseria — Restaurant in Winchester

Hidden gem! Cheap good eats.

Papusas are thick griddle cakes made from corn or rice flour and filled with savory stuff like cheese, pork, chicken, beans, zucchini, and loroco (an edible unopened flower bud), and traditionally served with a sort of cabbage slaw on the side.

This place didn't disappoint. We got their "crazy large papusas" to go. They cost $5 and were the size of pizzas and came with everything, cabbage slaw, salsas, hot sauces and all of the toppings.

And if you think that's a good deal, try going on Wednesday when they have regular sized papusas for 1.25 each. You might need 2 or 3 to fill up, but you can literally eat for $5.

Like all delicious but inexpensive places, they are busy! You might want to get takeout or you might have to wait for a table. It only took us 10 min to get our takeout.

One thing to note is that while the menu is in English, this is an English as a second language spot. Go in respectfully and you'll enjoy delicious authentic and surprisingly...

despite delivery service being plastered on their website in big bold letters 4 times, after waiting over an hour to recieve my so called “delivery” AND calling immediately after my order to confirm they got my delivery order- i called back and they then proceeded to tell me they don’t deliver (despite a delivery truck sitting in front of their store) and that i will have to pick it up. then an employee gave me their number and said they would drop it off- then a few minutes later said they don’t have their truck and they can’t ???...

This place is good, low-key Latin diner. A mix of Guatemalan, Mexican and Salvadoreño.

Pupusas are good and freshly made. Flank steak in the Carne asada is a Little tough and chewy so I'll skip that next time. Torta Hula Hula tasted a lot like a Cubano and it's huge.

Service was attentive. We got everything we ordered and didn't have to wait long.

The recent expansion to the shop makes it even more chill! You see a mix of people stopping in for food and those who stop to pick...
