I am from California, and I seek out quality Mexican cantinas on my travels and when living in other states. I believe that Mexican cuisine in the South, and on the entire east coast, for that matter, is inferior to that found out west, but I decided to give Mi Rancho a try. It has an extensive menu, great tortilla chips and a nice hot salsa upon request. It also has a number of top-shelf tequilas, and the Dos Equis on draft is nicely carbonated. I enjoyed my dinner very much on my first and several visits thereafter. On my first visit, our waiter had a very high opinion of himself and actually had the nerve to call me a "maricon" to my face even though I was there with my ladyfriend. The manager/owner is a very grim-looking woman, due in part to fact that the father of her child was unable to re-enter the United States. Also, at least half a dozen all male staff mill around the bar watching spanish language music videos or futbol games while toddler children run screaming up and down the aisles unmanaged. Real down-home, smokey Southern-Mexican kind of dump. Our last visit ended when I asked that our server box my nearly-full plate while my ladyfriend and I pounded a few more shooters. When the bill came I asked for my leftovers. He said that he hadn't any. I spoke to the manager and she claimed that the plate was "empty" when he brought it from our table. We left. A cantina is more than just about the food, and Mi Rancho will let you down if you are looking for the real thing.
