Stopped in for dinner while staying in the area. It was advertised as a Peruvian restaurant so I thought I'd find Peruvian food. Basically, it was a Mexican restaurant with Peruvain roasted chicken. My wfie wasn't super hungry, so she got the chicken quesadilla, wich was OK. I really liked the roasted chicken. Our sides were sweet plantaines and tostones, both of which were good. Our server, Dilcia, was friendly, didn't auction off the food and did check back to see how we were doing. Prices were not bad and while it's not a fancy place, it was good.

The Latin food is fabulous and you have to leave room for dessert. There’s quite a selection and so far everything is delicious.

This restaurant was cafeteria style. You order at the counter and the food is brought to the table. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection. This restaurant had a very large takeout clientele.

Look at the photo showing the grilled chicken and admire. It's such a beautiful place of food! What's missing is one cannot tell that the chicken was rather dry, the onion rings were barely warm. The fries, however, were perfectly cooked. The service was fast and friendly and the atmosphere was comfortable. El Rancho also has a bakery stand where Latino goodies are available to take home and enjoy!
