Great value! Beef fajitas or El Rancho nachos - generous portions. Fresh hot food served quickly. This is our go-to place for lunch (which tends to be busy) and sometimes dinner. Only downside is they're closed on Sundays and we always end up craving good Mexican food on Sundays!

Delicious! Had the enchiladas verde; the tomatillo sauce is definitely one of the better ones I've had! Ambience is also cool, lots of hand carving, painting, and leatherwork. I appreciated all the craftsmanship poured into the custom furniture. Courteous staff to boot, and served pretty quick.

​We were in the Burnet, TX area today at a local winery, and decided to grab dinner on the way home. We looked at the Yelp reviews for El Rancho restaurant, and decided to give it a try.​ We were not disappointed.​ The ​complimentary​ chips and salsa were good, the chips hot, and the salsa spicy, but not too hot. We asked to try some of the salsa ​v​erde, which was very good, a jalapeño-based salsa that had a little heat, but was delicious. Next, we ​ordered guacamole and the hous​e queso, which came out ​quickly. ​ ​The ​queso was hot, and the guacamole was fresh. Both were good. Not spicy hot, but very fresh!​ We ordered the beef soup and chicken tortilla soup next, as well as shrimp fajitas. The soup came out in bowls! All those dishes were served piping hot, and the spices and flavor were delicious. We will definitely be back!
