Taco Ranch

Reviews & Tips

  First time at the taco ranch and I was greeted at the door with a hardy welcome and a pleasant smile. It's almost easy to miss the place. Though right across the street from the chicken processing plant.
  
  The menu is small consisting of the standard burgers, sandwiches and salads, though the place does seem to specialize in the tex-mex flavor. In addition, the other choices consist of quesadillas, nachos, burritos, menudo, and of course tacos.
  
  The nice waitress steers me to one of the specials which is the soft taco "meal deal". The other special was fried chicken. The specials change daily.
  
  The soft tacos were on corn tortillas served open face with a sides of pinto beans and rice. I strongly recommend the homemade hot sauce due to the nice kick it gives the meal. Also, fresh ice tea. The desert is a small slice of pie which this time happens to be coconut. All in all, pretty good food and nice people.
  
  The clientele seems to be mainly locals and oil field workers.
  
  The only reason I don't give this place 4 stars is due to the chance of driving right by due to poor business advertising.

  While writing the story behind my Trans-Texas Bicycle Odyssey of 11JUN-08JUL2011, I am reliving it. Currently, I am pedaling through NixonTX and definitely had to stop for lunch at the Taco Ranch Cafe. What a delight! Not too expensive, incredibly welcome cold A-C, exceptionally friendly personnel, and, of course, incredibly delicious Tex-Mex food. Even though it was last year, I still remember how wonderful it was. I highly recommend it to anybody who feels like exploring East TX and need to re-energize.
