We just drove 500 miles to eat here on our way to Estes Park! 3rd time here and will make it a must stop anytime we are in the area! Thank you for the great service!

Big Disappointment. Food was cold and undercooked. Waitress had dirty hands and fingernails and shouldn't be a waitress. Acting manager and another chick at bar said they where doing me a favor when I asked for a RAW burger, that had been ordered well done, to be taken off of bill. Table in front and behind me had same experience going on. We all joked about meeting at McDonalds...��

This Restaurant has gone through changes over the years and now it's better than ever...like WAY better. I just had the best breakfast sausage of my life and I can't wait to come back to try the beer. I wish many years of thriving business for the newest reincarnation of El Rancho!

What an amazing place!!! Have not been there since the old one like 28 years ago. Just came by myself, the server "Mark", rocked and was an awesome guy! Even took home a bottle of amazing beer. I will for sure be coming back up, worth the drive. Put in a runway and I will be there every day! ;-)
