Supermercado El Rancho

Awesome!
Best TACOS in DALLAS. Authentic Mexican food and you can also buy your groceries while there. I do it all the time. Try the quesadilla because it is a traditional quesadilla from Mexico and not that typical one you can get at normal places.

I’ve been hooked on the king size burritos… the tortilla is the size of a large pizza, it’s like 2lbs of food for days only $ 6.49!
This store is great!!! I frequent this one also they make jumbo size pork skins, great snack to take back to work!!!

They have a lot of the basic necessities for hispanics. They have the typical bakery, meat department, etc.
So I came here to see if I could get a special wedding cake made and boy did they accommodate and not rob me blind! I wanted a heart shaped 2 tier wedding cake with butter cream frosting and the inside, a white cake with a slight almond flavor. They even did the little roses on the sides as I requested. I brought my own pillars and had a beautiful wedding cake that tasted awesome. Everyone raved about my cake and couldn’t believe it was from a Mexican bakery that is in a supermarket.
I also bought some of the steak and chicken that I cooked as fajitas for my wedding. They tasted great but it was a lot of work and I regret not just getting food catered.
I also get my conchas and fresh salsa here. This is a great little supermercado for all your hispanic necessities. All the workers are also helpful and friendly.

I actually like a lot of things about this place. HOWEVER, today in the deli. The young girl with the pony tail with the HORRIBLE ATTITUDE. Well she obviously thinks she’s prettier than she is and obviously gets away with her rude bahavior toward customers. Servce with a smile, not her. More like service with a slap across your face if she could reach across the counter. She hates her job, most likely hates herself. Definitely an ugly person.

This piece of shit ass place. I came in with a 10 dollar bill so was trying 2 budget. Was using the calculator on my phone. I was asked to leave because the manager accused me of bargain shopping. I was trying to make sure I had enough … had no more cash. So was forced to leave… I couldn’t even purchase what I had for 8.00. So FIESTA WINS. I can add up my groceries. I will BAD MOUTH THIS PLACE 4 LIFE. And 2 think I’m new to Dallas. GEEZ. Maybe it’s because I was a different race

This is the other supermarket that I do like to shop at — even though it’s probably 98% Mexican. But it’s clean, shiny, and even new. And the service is friendly even if the staff is unfamiliar with non-​Mexican Latin products.
The prices are also good although, it’s quite comparable to Fiesta. While I enjoy the scale of the store better than Fiesta, and the environment, I stick mainly to the standard grocery goods since their selection of Latin American products are lacking if you’re looking for products from South America. But surprisingly, they did have the masarepa or Harina PAN to make Venezuelan arepas! I was surprised since I had inquired about it TWICE, and the staff was unable to help me or to even locate it since they could not understand what arepas were. And when I explained that it was «harina de maíz precocida» — they just took me straight to where the corn flour for tortillas were at — and the harina PAN was nowhere to be found there. Perhaps they should organize the aisles better so that the harina PAN would be where the other corn flours are, for easier discovery by both customers and staff.
I must, however, recommend their bakery. Their oversized galletas de nuez powder cookies are fabulous and have become an addition. If you had Mexican wedding cookies, these are very similar, and possibly even better!

I drove by this Mexican market in an old Office Depot location dozens of times before I stopped in one day to check out their marinated fajita meat (which is delicious by the way, if not quite up the crack-​like addictiveness of that at La Michoacana). I was expecting another decent, if not spectacular, Fiesta-​type, kind of weird-​smelling store. I was pleasantly blown away by how clean, festive and well-​stocked this place is. The walls are adorned all the way around with colorful scenes and bright colors.
The first thing you see is their bakery, with an entire wall of breads, rolls and Mexican pastries on your left. To the right is a long display case filled with incredibly tall and elaborate cakes, all at very reasonable prices compared to other bakeries. There is a giant hot foods counter, tortilla machine and fresh salsa case. I did manage to create mass confusion by asking for a quart container of rice to go — apparently nobody has ever not had it as a side to their enchilada/​taco plate. They have a great selection of gringo brands as well as the imported items you would expect, all at decent prices. And their meat counter is giant. If you love to grill, they’ve got you covered, unless you’re looking for $ 30 steaks.
There are 2 reasons that I didn’t give them 5 stars. One is that they don’t sell beer or wine. The other is that I’ve twice gone in on a Saturday to get boneless skinless chicken breasts that were in their flyer that came out on Wednesday, and both times they were out (even though they still had the sale sign on the display case). No substitution, no rain check, heck, not even a «sorry about that» now that I think about it. So get your adult beverages somewhere else and get there on Wednesday if you want cheap chicken boobies.

I really like this store. This is my first visit to the store conveniently located in east dallas and near the house. The store is super clean, I mean really clean in comparison to other supermarkets of this type. It’s very well lit shelves are fully stocked prices were decent in comparison very well organized a huge selection of pastries, bakery items made fresh daily it appears, also had a hot food bar and an area to eat your selection. I highly recommend this location to anyone who’s in the neighborhood and needs something from the grocery store stop by and check it out.

I really, really like this grocery store! If you like to cook like I do, then get ready to get super pumped for some fresh, ripe produce! Their selection of exotic fruits is out of this world and they have things that are hard to find at your typical chain grocery store. The location is a bit sketchy, but the inside is big, bright and spotless and it’s apparent that the place is fairly new to the area! Don’t let the fact that everything is labeled in Spanish deter you either. I don’t speak a lick of Spanish, but was able to find everything that I needed. On top of the produce they have a huge bakery area with custom-​made cakes and pastries, fresh tortillas, tacos and other dishes to go!
In addition to the great produce and kitchen/​bakery selections, they have superb customer service. I found myself there in search of cilantro that I forgot on a recent grocery trip elsewhere. I asked someone who worked there who not only pointed me in the right direction but brought me a bag and walked me to exactly where it was. It’s little things like that really make a great first impression and will have me returning a second time.

This big shiny grocery store in the hood seemed questionable. Either a dumpy big box full of crap, or perhaps a gem.
Turns out it’s a more like a big Mexican convenient store, with lots of prepackaged stuff for a decent price, and a super sized deli with taco bar, paleteria and carceneria.
Here’s what I got for $ 7.14 —
BBQ Pringles that didn’t scan $ 0
Medium bottle of Coke Zero $ 1
Jello Chocolate pudding 4 pack $ 1.99
«Town Talk» white bread $.99
Carl Budding Chicken slices $ 1.89
Kraft instant Mac n chz cup $ 1.19
Hey that’s bachelor groceries for a few days.
It’s near my house, and better than the one
Aldi I went to once. I’ll rotate this into a fast shopping schedule.

Half of the store is gross to me (lots of raw stinky meat pressed up against glass walls), but the other half is great. They have a hot foods line where you can get an entire cooked chicken for $ 6.99, as well as tacos and other cooked meats by the pound. Their fruits and veggies appeared fresh and seemed reasonably priced — 2 huge oranges or 3 little pears for under $ 1.50 and cabbage for $.50/​lb. They didn’t have a giant variety of vegetables like whole foods, but stuff was cheap. The bakery section has a ton of cakes, mostly if not all under $ 30. Not sheet cakes either — fancy tall ones with fruit on the top! They also have a wall of pastries that looked delicious.

*Really* like this place. Brand new – just opened up a few weeks ago and they have all kinds of great stuff. I’ll give them a slight edge over Fiesta. First, I’m happy someone has occupied this old OfficeMax space on lower Gaston.
Second, they always have someone greeting you at the front door with a sales circular – this normally annoys me but each time I’ve been the person was really genuine and cool.
Incredible bakery rivaling that awesome one inside Mi Tierra in San Antonio. Excellent produce section with nice, inexpensive produce (avocados are like 69 cents each!). Also they have really great fresh-​made salsas – verde, roja, and some kind of evil satan one – all very good!
My favorite part is the meat counter – they’ve got great stuff in there, admittedly about the same as Fiesta, but its really good. I’m able to get tripas (the intestine kind, not the frozen block kind) and chicharrones and even a whole pig head if I want. Plus the usual fajitas, carnitas, etc.
The place is friendly and clean and full of good people from my experience.
