Taqueria Rancho Alegre

Definitely my new favorite spot for tacos and tomales! Their 5 for $10 deal on Tuesdays is fantastic, the steak tacos are the best I've ever had. Other places the steak is too dry or no seasoning or just taste like salt, but here its juicy and seasoned just right. The tomales are also phenomenal! Usually go there around lunch time and it's not busy, went last Tuesday around 430/5 and the entire place was full I think only 2 other tables were open after I sat down. Yes the service was slow but they were crazy busy, and the food was perfect when it came out hot and fresh. I enjoy watching shows on my phone when I go out by myself to eat, so I don't care how long it takes just as long as my food is hot and what I ordered I have no problem waiting for it.

We continue to love this place! The food is great and the meats are very flavorful! My husband really likes the El pastor. The music is enjoyable as well. They play audio as well as videos of various styles. Come eat here!!!

I was directed here after learning their $2.75 tacos are just $1.50 on Tuesdays! It turns out that is only for 4 meats (I believe chicken, steak, chorizo, and al pastor). Regardless, I was very excited to try a number of meats I've never seen ANYWHERE else, very unique. We tried 8 of the 12 meats. Chips and salsa are free and decent, atmosphere is very fun. They load up the meats plenty as well! Here are the 8 we had and my thoughts in no particular order: -Steak - Very solid choice especially for $1.50. -Chorizo - Surprised it was spicy but also VERY sweet and cinnamon, reminded me of a coney sauce. -Al Pastor - Same as Chorizo, sweet and distinct cinnamon reminiscent of coney sauce. My wife loved that about it but that made these 2 my personal least favorites (to each their own!). -Chicharron Rojo - This and the next are both the same but with a red sauce vs green. Very soft pieces of fat and these two had the most heat. -Chicharron Verde - Same as above, a bit sweeter. -Lengua - Diced up very small, pretty good and tender but not my favorite lengua. -Cabeza - This in the photos is the one by itself. It is cow head meat so VERY unusual and had bits of fat and meat and was kind of stewed. -Tripa - This was maybe one of my favorites, unusual for sure. A mix of nice pieces of meat and VERY crispy bits of fat or something and so very crunchy throughout. If you want to play it safe, the first half of meats are your place. If you love different and unusual things, the entire second half is for you. The Chicharron meats and the tripa would be my first suggestions. Last, I will say everything says they open at 11am but today we arrived at 11:20am and they were closed. They did answer and say they open at 11:30am (as if that was normal) and then we were good :)

Absolutely delicious! Very authentic and flavorful. The salsas are divine, meat is VERY flavorful, and the handmade tortillas were the best I've ever had. Highly recommend!

Authentic, fresh and affordable. The food was delicious and margaritas strong. Will be back!

The food was justterrible. Got a chicharon torta, the meat was ok, but cold and the bread was very stale and hard as a rock. Couldnt actually eat the bread. Real bummer. My girl got the tacos they were super dry and tasteless. Told my waiter about the bread, he didnt seem to care at all. Weird spot, would not reccomend it

The food was decent, but the overall experience fell short. We waited nearly 15 minutes just to pay, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. A bit more attentiveness from the staff would have made a big difference.

Quite quick meals, the time the service is excellent and most of the time is speedy. Lots of neat decor. Food is usually filling a decent sized plate. Very great Mexican restaurant, may be the greatest in the Fort Wayne area

Handmade tortillas! Friendly service and delicious Mexican cuisine! The Three Amigos has a steak, chicken, and al pastor for the indecisive.

Food was amazing, service was fast and friendly and they have an amazing taco Tuesday deal, 5 tacos with rice and beans for $10!! 10/10 will come back

Incredible tacos and fantastic price point. You can tell this is a smaller family owned business but it's all the more reason I would recommend. I truly don't go anywhere else for tacos anymore because the flavor and quality is way more authentic than the majority of places I've been to locally. Tortillas are always fresh and taste homemade. Meat is always well seasoned and never overcooked, in particular the carne asada is unmatched. They also have never shorted it me when it comes to toppings and sides, which, again, is awesome given the price being so affordable. It is a small menu with a very quiet atmosphere, but again, it's a private owned business so I am not sure what else you would expect unless you just don't get out much lol. I bring all non local friends here every time the craving for tacos comes up and it is easily their fave spot in the fort when they're visiting. Highly recommend!

When inside and it was empty. I mean, no one. Stood for 5 minutes. Finally, a guy came out and seated me. Is margarita were watered down, chips were cold, tortilla wasn't warm or cooked, food was fatty, salsa had no taste, tamales had barely any meat inside, and they charged us for water. I've never in my life been to a restaurant that charges for water that's not in a bottle! Smh.. Will never go back!!

Authentic flavors and friendly service! I had chicken Mole and that was so good! Very fresh, a little spicy and smooth! They serve it with 2 chicken legs and fresh made corn tortillas. I used every tortilla to sop up that sauce! Taco Tuesday is a wonderful way to end the day. 5 tacos, rice and beans for $10. Tacos are $1.50. Lots of meat choices. My favorite chorizo is seasoned just right. Thirsty Thursday, Tuesday, or any day, try this nice little place near Pierres.

Do not pass this place up. The tortillas are the best we have had, ever. We love local Mexican and this place didn't disappoint. The menu is small but mighty. I got the 3 amigos - one taco of each carne asada, chicken, pastor. The pastor was the shining star. The gauc is made to order and is a steal at $5. Order it!!

Best food service ever !!! The drink was designed so nicely! It taste better than it looks!! You gotta try it!

The food and service here is amazing I recommend stopping by , definitely once of the best Mexicans spots in Fort Wayne , the inside is a little quiet but as a quiet person I enjoy that.

Food was ok..I was hoping for more due to the reviews. It's an average Mexican restaurant but it definitely didn't knock my socks off. I live less then 2 miles away and I wouldn't be surprised if I don't order from here again. Salsa was bland and the quest was below average. I got enchiladas expecting enchilada sauce but it came with Mole sauce which tasted pretty good but that's not what I ordered. Rice and beans were dime a dozen. Tamales were super average. If there is a next time id probably just get some tacos.

Very authentic Mexican food. The price is reasonable, however they do not have a big variety. It's a bit of a whole-in-the-wall place, but I don't mind that.
