Rancho Fresco Mexican Grill

Very low key. The tortillas are made fresh right in front of you on the big spinning hot plate...corn or flour. Good food!

This review was posted on Yelp as well.The food is amazing. Honestly, it’s my favourite Mexican place by a mile. Every time I’m in downtown Modesto, more than half the time I find myself here. The staff is friendly, the vibes are impeccable, so why the low rating?I’ve worked in food service long enough to know that there are NUMEROUS health code violations here. The last two visits, I’ve had pieces of hair in my food, and a fly in my quesadilla literally the next day. On top of that, the “up next” wooden board which sits directly on top of the grill and the dough in which they make the tortillas from, that sign is FULL of dust, which could easily fall into the tortilla mix and into YOUR food, or into the rotating grill itself.My recommendation?As for the restaurant, please wear hair ties/nets, more than half of your staff does not wear it or even take precautions to prevent hair from falling into food.Please dust your sign, and anything else that’s in proximity of the food prep.As for the customers? This place is still really good. But I’d be cautious when it comes to your food. Inspect it, and point out anything wrong with it to management.As for me, as much I don’t know how to, I’m going to find a way to file a complaint with the local authority. This place needs an inspection BADLY.

Tortillas cooked right in front of you. Delicious food.

If the kitchen looks like the bathroom I’m at a loss for words. You’re lucky you don’t have the smell stuck in your sinuses like I do!

No bartender, was just cashier going back and forth. Took forever, even the food.
