Best feature is the in store Taqueria serves freshly made, delicious authentic burritos, fairly priced, fast service, decent location, not enough parking space. Basic living necessities, besides beer, wine and liquor. Lottery tickets, scratchers, and a small seating area for dining in.

This place is certainly one that has never failed me. You get a excellent burrito beer to go all in one stop. The prices are not bad at all. Plus you can buy munchies all at the same time. FOOD SERVICE IS SUPER QUICK Parking is slim but who cares it's worth going to.

  • Frank Robles

It's one of the best Mexican fast food restaurant that I have visited. Fast food may be the wrong term, maybe it would be best to say its Mexican food served fast. I recomend it, their pastor meat (marinated pork) is one of the best i have had in quite a while

  • Sj

Literally the best place to get a torta, quesadillas, burritos and tacos my ultimate most favorite meat here is buche and asada and lengua. Although I'd smash on some carnitas and the Chile Verde and Pollo. All the meats are bomb af

  • Jose Virgen

If I could give this place a zero I would. Whoever eats here does not know authentic MEXICAN food. The rice was hard, meaning it had been sitting for a while. The meat( beef) was old, tasteless and dry. The kitchen, crowded and dirty. Now

  • andrew mijares

This place has the best carne asada tacos and burritos in San Jose. The the lengua is really good too. To look at it you wouldn't think that but this is the place to go for great tacos and burritos. Forget La Vic's and their orange sauce

  • D. Man.

This used to be an all time favorite, especially while at SJSU in the 1990's. But now their prices are unreal for tacos and burritos that have literally become 50% in size of what I remember them being some years back. Idk what happened,

  • Móni

For over 15 years El Rancho has been my neighbor. Coming home from school I would stop by and get a drink or chips. When I'd go out and I wanted some tacos late at night, I'd come here. The staff is pretty much all OG and are all super

  • D Hancock

Best Street Tacos in Town! Seriously... in a liquor store. Just go up to the counter, order, and in a few minutes they will call you. I have NEVER had tacos this good anywhere else except in Mexico.

  • SlApPy NuTtZ Mcfister

The neighborhood is a little scary especially at night and El Rancho could use a remodel but these guys have got some of the best food in San Jose and they'll get you out the door quick everytime.

  • Nosey Rosie

Not your typical liquor store, they have a taqueria in there too. So you can get a pack of smokes and a burrito in minutes. And the food is so good. The guy at the register is pretty cool too.

  • Yvette Ortiz

Had tacos at the taqueria the meat is not the greatest but gave them 2 stars for their salsa and tortillas are super soft. Tacos are too expensive for the quality you get not worth it.

  • James Brown

We had delicious rice and bean burritos. The price was good for the size. This is a liquor store as well as a takeout taqueria so get your adult beverages to enjoy with your meal!

  • Oscar

Lady had a dirty band-aid (visibly black from dirt) and was rolling my burrito and preparing my tacos. Gave the food away to the homeless outside. I went to stadium taqueria after

  • Kimberly McWilliams

Good location for late night run because it's in the middle of a residential area that offers no other options late hour for a quick beer run or meal! Friendly staff and helpful.

  • Efrain Garcia

Nice and clean liquor store with a taqueria with really good tacos, burritos and Quesadillas. If you make it for the Breakfast Burrito you will not be disappointed.

  • Amber Escalante

The best tortas ever! And hey I been coming here for many years love the guys that work here mainly Spanish speaking but dont worry they speak English too!

  • Jasbir Singh

Great Tacos inside the Liquor store. New Owner of the liquor store is revamping the whole place. Increasing the inventory. Good things coming out soon.

  • Mula Hellabandz

Guy at the register was staring at me weird when I was just trynna buy some munchies, felt like the Asians from menace to society. Food is alright.

  • Jacqueline Carrisosa

Very rude! Checker thought I stole something! I had my phone in my hand and he insisted I stole something. NEVER will I go in that place again.

  • Chris Nelson

The staff is nice. They're open almost all the time. Also have a really small kitchen where they make really good quality Mexican food.

  • Angelica Ferreira

A good burrito depends on who made it. The man who work over there for a long time always make the best one

  • Rick Septon

Best taqueria in all the Bay Area…. Without a doubt. The giant jalapeños are like candy
