Rancho Chico

Reviews & Tips

  I'm embarrassed it took me so long to write a review of my favorite restaurant. I'm originally from Los Angeles and know Mexican food...and this is good Mexican food! I've eaten here more frequently than any other restaurant I've been to, and I've lived here a only a couple of years AND have to drive half an hour to get to the restaurant. I've rarely loved a restaurant enough to become a regular (or, I've loved it but can't *afford* to be a regular.) Thankfully, Rancho is very affordable, makes excellent food with huge portions, and also has lovely margaritas. I always have leftovers. Their two types of salsa (one is a cabbage-based pico de gallo) are fantastic and are even better if you mix them together. For entrees, we highly recommend the Carne Asada, Arroz con Pollo, Steak Picado, the Fajita Burrito, the Crazy Donkey burrito, the Chicken Mole, and any of the Camarones (shrimp) dishes. We also love their Chile Relleno  and they have multiple other vegetation options, too. Honestly, the menu is so vast that I'm sure there are many other gems...but we got hooked on the aforementioned dishes. If you are regulars and order drinks, you might get a free treat at the end. The owners are incredibly nice and hardworking and always welcome us like family.  Lastly, the interior is so bright, colorful, and elaborate that a visit will always cheer you up. Hands down, the best restaurant in the area. Enjoy!

  Love the decor.  Food was pretty good, but not really noteworthy.  They do have quite a few vegetarian options which we liked.  Service was good.

  Our family is a local and we frequent Rancho Chico's, at the very minimum, once a month. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Our favorite item to order is the Mexican pizza. This is the best restaurant in town by far.

  This is a great local Mexican restaurant, something Tonasket needed for a long time. The menu is big, the portions are ample, the results tasty and consistent.  RC is the only restaurant in town with a full bar (as opposed to a tavern that also serves food), and the eight margaritas on the menu are popular. I prefer the Original Margarita on the rocks. The co-owner & host Juan makes everyone feel at home; he is a great old-fashioned restauranteur.

  We stopped for lunch at this nice family Mexican restaurant. We were greeted by a friendly "amigo" and seated in a colorful booth. While the exterior looks like a typical highway cafe, the inside is a delightful space - full of bright coloured murals and carved and painted furniture.
  Immediately after you sit down, a friendly waiter dropped a big bowl of corn chips , tasty salsa and coleslaw on our table before taking our drink order.  
  The menu is extensive - almost too many choices. I ordered the daily special - combo fajitas, my wife an enchilada.
  Prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge and very tasty. My huge plate of beef, chicken, onion and fresh green peppers for my fajita arrived on a sizzling platter - accompanied by a plate of rice, re-fried beans, salad, etc - enough food for two or three people ( but it was so good I ate it all).  
  This is our first visit to this location of Rancho Chico ( there is another one in Omak we enjoyed in the past). We will return again and try another of their excellent entrees.
