Avila's El Ranchito - Costa Mesa

The food at Avila's El Ranchitos was "Great" the atmosphere extremely relaxing an everyone there so professional & friendly. I am taking my family back there an soon. It's closer to where we live an again great Family restaurant. Five stars in my book.....🙂

We were down in Orange County and just couldn't miss an opportunity to have some El Ranchito while there!
We love the chips and salsa!
Mama Avila's chicken soup is amazing!

I have been to all of their restaurants, but last night was amazing. Not sure who the guys were, but the greeting committee was like none I have ever seen. The tortilla soup is the best, get the condiments!

Had a Wednesday night special dinner planned at Avila's El Ranchito in Costa Mesa -- my grandson's 21st birthday. I was pleasantly surprised that they have expanded their covered outdoor dining. The seating was very spacious between tables. From the carafe of margaritas to the guacamole dip, we had a great time celebrating and enjoying our dinners. Fast service, very accommodating waiters and good food -- worth the cost of the experience.

Grew up going to this location and I constantly come back when in town. I enjoy this Avila’s over the HB or Seal beach location due to size and ambiance. The others feel like a bar scene than a restaurant. Which is fine. I just enjoy this experience over other Avila’s restaurants.
Great hosts, servers, and food. Thanks, Rocky. Props to Salvador, a great host.
