Reviews Summary
Los Ranchos is frequently praised for its fast and friendly service, with many highlighting the welcoming atmosphere and authentic Mexican cuisine.

"Great food!! One of the best Mexican restaurants we’ve been to. I would recommend it for anyone who is in the area. Enjoying some margaritas while watching the Michigan game. Manuel is a great waiter, very polite and friendly."

"Stopped in on a Friday night for the first time, ordered Nachos Supreme with jalapeños and an unsweetened iced tea. The chips and salsa were ok, as previously mentioned by other reviews they are not made in-house and are thicker. The salsa was different, couldn’t put my finger on what is was. Nachos arrived very fast. Looked delicious but once started eating them there was no flavor. The beef and chicken has no seasoning, lettuce flavor overpowered the chicken flavor. Also the other pictures shows all the liquid at the bottom, i don’t like that for my nachos, bottom half of the nachos were soggy. Glad i asked for jalapeños because they had flavor. Overall wouldn’t order them again. Service was ok, not overly friendly. Probably won’t be back with other options in the area.
Total bill with 15% tip was $22. The $4 ice tea was a surprise."

"I’m sad I live an hour away from this place, I would be back all the time! Stopped in for lunch for the first time with my husband while we were in South Haven for the day. We loved the vibe in the restaurant and the staff were very welcoming and courteous. The food SLAPPED- legit authentic Mexican cuisine. I hope we can visit again someday!"

great food im never disappointed, worth the money. their fast and delicious and resonably priced cant be beat one of the best local places for quick food.". "Overall, the food was ok but the price was a bit high for the quantity. Asked for very little ice with horchata - still got half a cup. The enchiladas were ok, but pretty much soggy on arrival. Truly liked the Quesadilla de Champiñones / Mushroom Quesadilla - it was great but for about $20, I was left hungry. I appreciated the bag of chips, but asked for ketchup with the fries and got nothing. Just a bit disappointing.
