Had a great time at this very unique Toronto establishment. Heard about it many times and finally decided to try it out. Went with a group of 8 people. Didn't know what to expect and was completely surprised and amazed by the whole experience. Had dinner and it was great.!! A Mariachi entertained us. Later we all took a salsa lesson. The teacher was very friendly and upbeat. Tried my new moves and found that i wasn't half bad. I really enjoyed watching the crowd. Everyone seemed like they were having a great time. I whole heartedly recommend this place to anyone. It was a blast. We will definitely return again and again...
Had the greatest time at this wonderful place....
Our whole group was very impressed. The food was amazing. The service was exceptional. Very courteous and friendly staff. Try the Paella and Seafood platter.!!!
The atmosphere was very tropical and lively. We even danced the night away to amazing Latin beats. We will definitely return again and again. A true gem in our wonderful city... :)
I just had to write a review because this place has it all.!! Amazing food and great atmosphere. Was recomended by friends bur wasnot sure what to expect. e arrives at around 8pm for dinner andre pleasantly greeted by some very nice peolpe. The food was amazing. Our group had all different dishes and we shared portions to compare the taste. We can honestly say that all plates were deliscious. After dinner we took a dance lesson with a very entertaining instructor. Later the party continued and we had a blast. I recomend El Rancho to all.!! What a place. 10/10
Fantastic restaurant, the ambience is just amazing. The service was friendly, courteous and speedy considering it was a pretty busy evening in the restaurant. The food was outstanding, great proportions cooked to perfection and very tasty. We went into the night club afterwards and the music was fantastic. I so recommend this establishment it is amazing we will definitely go back.
