El Averago

Margaritas
Laura and I had been watching in anticipation for the opening of a new Mexican restaurant in the old Yocono's building. El Ranco finally opened sometime this week and we decided to try it out tonight. The inside looks much like most Mexican restaurants - the vibe of the old place with some bright paint and Mexican paintings - the old bakery case was turned into a nice looking bar. Our waiter was pretty amateur but that's not a big deal to us - hopefully he'll learn you don't need to keep asking people if they are ready to order when they are clearly still looking at a menu. Unfortunately the food and margaritas were pretty average. With Tito's just down the street and the classic Mariachi's in the valley they will need to step up their game if we are to turn into regulars. I'll give them another chance in a few weeks but I don't think I'll be recommending them at this point.....

There was nothing wrong with my food - there was just nothing great about it. Laura's pork was really dry.
