I haven't had a steak dinner like this in years. This place is great. It's pricey but they fill you up. Amg the people that work there are take care of you. Whatever they can do for you they will try there best to make you happy. I would've liked to meet the person cooking the food and give them a salute for a job well done

Excellent service and delicious steak! The cut was juicy and tender, served with a generous portion of fries and cooked veggies. They serve quality meat! Definitely the go-to steakhouse in the Stockton area. I even had a great laugh when I read their sign walking in the front door

Great Steak, but it will it Break Your Bank? The Steak: Let's talk about the steak. Simple put, AMAZING! The steak came out very quickly, but I did get there around 4:30 or so. The size was pretty good. I would have to say it was around 12 oz, but give or take an oz. I ordered the filet. It was huge and cooked correctly, a perfect medium rare. The filet was red in the middle and juicy with every bite. The seasoning enhanced the already tasty filet. The Bank: Be prepared for old bank roll to take a hit. At around $45 it is steep price, but comparable with other steakhouses in Stockton. There is not options here. Baked potato, onions strings, and a salad. If you want steak cooked correctly and one that might be worth the price, give El Rancho a chance. 4 out 5 stars for the price.

This place is no doubt one of the tastiest place to eat in the neighborhood. Every time I come there I am very pleased. They preserve their very high standard service and the highest level of meals they offer. You are always happy with this restaurant. Very recommended.

Wow!!! You walk in, chose your steak and go find a table. The waitress brings you an veggie platter and bread and asks you what kind of salad dressing! After a lovely salad, she brings you the most beautiful platter with your steak, cooked perfectly, a baked potato and onion strings! No menu, the only choice you make is type of steak and salad dressing! I am in love

Was delicious, but missed my lobster tail. Steak was right on! Wish I had more shrimp but the dinner was filling, salad, bread. Service was awesome, clean as usual!

Food is served very differently and are longer serving the shared relish tray; big bummer my favorite part of the meal. It's understandable I was bummed but I totally get it we all have to adjust to changes. We hadn't been to a restaurant since the pandemic for a sit down meal in house so it was nice being able to do so.

El Rancho uses only the highest quality ingredients including their beef, chicken, produce, and internationally-imported lobster. The bar has a very simple and enjoyable atmosphere. This little restaurant in Stockton, California is of Bay Area restaurant quality. Highly recommend visiting El Rancho!

If your looking for a little bit of down home hospitality combined with excellent service then you will love the recipes they are grilling up at El Rancho. Stockton California's best Steak/lobster.

Nice friendly staff and gregarious owner. Excellent splitting policy. They'll split your steak and give each of you full sides for a reasonable upcharge. Unfortunately, our steak was overcooked ( asked for medium, came out well) and tough. I don't feel it was as good quality beef as I've had there in the past.

The steak is extremely juicy and always cooked to perfection. El rancho inn knows how to do fine dining.
