very good food

Good food, good price. But the price of a pitcher of domestic beer is $12. That is outrageous. I should have asked the price before ordering.

Terrible service. The food had no taste and I ended up with food poisoning. The table beside of us spilled a drink and after several staff walked by and ignored them, they cleaned it up themselves with napkins. The staff walked around the giant puddle of tea on the floor for at least 30 minutes. We would never go back there but if you decide to go; avoid the chicken taco!!

I arrived at the restaurant around 10:55 AM but the door was locked since they don't open until 11:00 AM. No problem, I just waited until 11:00 AM but the door was still locked. So, I go over to the window and peer in the see what was or wasn't happening. Then I see a hand waving in front of my face and hear laughter coming from inside. Then the blinds or shade closes and I hear more laughter. A few minutes later someone unlocks the door. I decided to leave because I don't give money to rude wait staff.

El Ranchero in Spruce Pine, NC is excellent! Try the "Carnitas" (pork shoulder) and the seafood. Seafood at a Mexican restaurant?!!? Absolutely! The best scallops you can find north of Asheville. This restaurant is a treat!

Myself and a few friends were passing through and stopped by to eat. They have a great selection of food. Kind and courteous staff. I had their Chicken & Scallops-awesome selection. I'm sure we'll stop again when in the area.
