    Best place for tacos I've been to since I've moved to NC. 1.80$ for tacos and they have 8-10 different kinds to choose from and they will be the best you've had. 10/10 would recommend you trying before leaving!

    We were looking for something authentic and Rancho Grande is what we found! The pricing was $13 total for 5 tacos and a beer which I thought was very inexpensive and worth it. Unfortunately, the beer selection wasn't too large. The freshness of the food made up for it though! The chicken tacos were so juicy and marinated with incredible flavor. I highly recommend the Al Pastor tacos. They have just the right amount of spice! The tacos themselves were pretty plain (just a tortilla and meat) but there was a bar of toppings to choose from and add for yourself. I did like adding my own toppings because it didn't cost extra and you got to create your own kind of tacos that you preferred! I will definitely be back and hopefully try something else.

    This is legit Mexican food--delicious tacos with all the fixings at the salsa bar. The hot sauces are spicy--even the 'mild' one packs a punch! I loved everything I tried: the campechano? the al pastor, and the carnitas tacos. YUM! Three tacos are perfectly filling, but my husband wished he ordered a 4th. These are priced well too--it was $13ish for 6 tacos! I prefer this type of Mexican food over the restaurants that have chimichangas, ACP, etc. Much more flavorful.

    Highly recommend! I agree with other reviewers that the place's décor isn't the greatest, but the food is bomb so I don't mind. We actually just took our tacos to go so it didn't even really matter.

    We went to Rancho Grande on National Taco Day and had an awesome meal! They have authentic Mexican tacos and for a very reasonable price. I ordered an al pastor taco, a barbacoa taco, and an al pastor gordita. Both meats I had were very good, but I actually liked the chicken my husband got on his tostada the most. Our food came out quickly and they didn't skimp on the meat.

    Then they have a toppings bar where you can add your salsa and peppers. And let me tell you, they definitely bring the heat to the salsa and some of the other toppings. So if spicy isn't your thing, then be careful what you get.

    This place is the real deal!

    Even though my order came out wrong both times I've been (ordered and confirmed it in both Spanish and English) and there are no chips available (I know it's a dumb gripe but I am a salsa bar fiend), there's a whole lot to love about this place.

    The sopes are good and freshly fried, piled high with meat and adorned with queso blanco, crema and lettuce. Topped with some of the super spicy red sauce or some completely serviceable pico de gallo they are quite delicious. Tacos are a bit flimsy but well-priced. Have tried 7-8 of the toppings the cecina, crispy tripe and pastor were the best. Tongue is a bit rubbery but fine, cecina was tasty enough and the barbacoa is totally fine.

    Looking forward to going back and trying some of their seafood offerings.
