In 1983, after the success of La Calle Doce, Oscar and Laura Sanchez wanted to open another restaurant but they didn’t want to duplicate their previous success nor did they want to open just another Tex-Mex restaurant. Oscar wanted something that wasn’t found in Dallas, something that reminded him of home. Since both Oscar and Laura are from Monterrey, Nuevo Leon in Northern Mexico, they decided to open a restaurant that specialized in Comida Norteño (northern food) and Tex-Mex featuring dishes such as cabrito, mollejas, and asado de puerco. Today El Ranchito is known for it’s authentic Mexican food, freshly made tortillas and festive atmosphere where mariachis play daily. These elements – the food, the music and the friendly staff – have helped El Ranchito achieve it’s ultimate goal of creating an atmosphere where the customer feels as if they are back home in Monterrey.

    Good service and food. There was a pianist singing as well for nice background noise, but it wasnt very loud so it was awkward to hear everyones conversations at nearby tables. The food was good. Steak was incredible. The mashed potatoes and caesar salad were some of the things we tried. all of the servers must share tips because they were all helpful and helping one another. That was nice, too. Ambiance was nice. Ask for a window seat, I wish we had done that for the views.

    Delicious! Couldn’t help to start my first comment as that. My wife had the salmon and I had the filet, both dishes cooked to perfection. Perfectly made so tender and juicy with flavorful sides. Our server Brittany was so amazing- couldn’t have left that place happier. Thank you for the great experience and made our night so special!

    Micah was our server - excellent in every way. Zero cocktails tasted like they had cologne in them - bitter and unpleasant. Stone crabs excellent as always.

    The Ranch at Las Colinas is my favorite restaurant. My go-to meal is the Chipotle Meatloaf with a double portion of whipped potatoes. It checks all the boxes for me. That smoked tomato poblano salsa is fantastic! The waitstaff is always knowledgeable about the menu and great at making recommendations when I can't figure out what I want. The drinks are perfectly crafted according to the menu, and they are always good pours. I always go on my birthday and a few times a year for special occasions.

    My wife and I started dining at Avanti over 25 years ago when we were dating. We have celebrated many anniversaries there since, as we did last evening. When I made the reservation on Open Table I stated that it was our anniversary and requested our favorite seating in the northwest corner of the dining area because it’s quiet and provides a nice view of the rest of the restaurant. When we arrived we were greeted by the warm and friendly hostess who wished us a happy anniversary said that our table was ready. Our waiter, Martin, was friendly, informative and attentive. My wife ordered her usual Bolognese. We have traveled to Italy many times and the Tagliatelle Bolognese at Avanti is by far the most authentic we’ve had in the US. I had the Cioppino which was also amazing. They surprised us with Tiramisu served on a platter wishing us a happy anniversary. It was just as romantic as always. Thank you Avanti… we will be back again!!
