El Ranchero

Located in new Chicago Indiana, this restaurant, grocery store is a homey local mom and pop shop. Of course, not to be discounted for that at all. They have a bakery and small grocery store with Hispanic flare. I’m not familiar with all of the Hispanic items in the bakery, but they sure looked tasty. As for the restaurant, our orders were hot and tasty. Service was quick and kind. The restaurant was clean and neat, located with plenty of free parking. They offer delivery. Overall, certainly worth trying, I think you'll enjoy the experience. NOTE they are closed Mondays and open 9-6 Tuesday-Saturday, Sunday close at 3.

Restaurant is a little on the small side. Can get crowded very quickly. Our order was taken promptly but our food took quite some time getting to us. Food was okay. We ordered tortas and they were made as ordered. Mine was good and my boyfriend said his was just okay. My son had the kid's quesadilla which was very small. Even he commented on it, saying it looked like half of a quesadilla. Lol. But his fries were soooo good! Also, my mom had the chicken mole and she said it was great. My dad ordered the huachinango (red snapper). It's his usual and his fave, but today he said it was lacking a certain spice. Oh! The horchata was great! All in all, it was an okay visit for lunch. If there had been time, we might've stopped in at the panadería connected to the restaurant for some fresh Mexican bread. It looked really good and I needed tortillas too. Next time, though.
