"Amazing tasting pupusas! Everything tasted fresh and home made. Highly recommend the pupusas and the fajita. The agua de horchata was super delicious too. Prices are reasonable as you get big portions. The salsas they bring to the table are excellent to go with your meal."

"Best pupusas in the area! I like the ayote con queso. My husband gets the pupusas locas. We both love the horchata too. We have also tried the yuca frita and tamal de elote. Everything is great, fair prices, friendly service, and a clean environment."

"Everything was absolutely delicious, from the beans to the steak to the garnachitas. It did take a bit for our food but everything seemed to be made fresh to order, which is ALWAYS worth the wait. The constant line of people picking up to go orders could also explain the wait, but also a good sign if that many people like it there! Staff was friendly, and and restaurant was very clean."

"This place is good, low-key Latin diner. A mix of Guatemalan, Mexican and Salvadoreño. Pupusas are good and freshly made. Flank steak in the Carne asada is a Little tough and chewy so I'll skip that next time. Torta Hula Hula tasted a lot like a Cubano and it's huge. Service was attentive. We got everything we ordered and didn't have to wait long. The recent expansion to the shop makes it even more chill! You see a mix of people stopping in for food and those who stop to pick up groceries."

"Mi Ranchito is the restaurant I always go to when I visit Winchester. This time I ordered takeout- a Giant Pupusa Loca to go. It was delicious, full of flavor and priced just right. While waiting I enjoyed browsing their Market which has great selection and diverse products. The staff is always friendly and attentive. If you’re ever in Winchester Mi Ranchito is a must stop. Today I learned that they’re opening a second location Mi Ranchito 2 in Stephens City. I can’t wait to visit when they open in a few weeks!!"
