DINNER

Mamá Avila Our Original Chef — 1966

Huntington Park, CA

It all started back in the kitchen when the Avila family came to the United States from Guanajuato, México. Mama brought with her the wonderful recipes that have been in her family for generations. A blend

of secret ingredients and strict attention to freshness and quality have been the foundation of the fine tradition of good cooking you’ll find at El Ranchito.

It was Papa, though, who had the idea to involve the whole family and create a truly special restaurant. The entire Avila family pitched in and helped at the first El Ranchito when it opened in Huntington Park

back in 1966. Even Grandpa Poldo got into the act and helped out washing dishes!

Eventually, their children, and then their grandchildren, opened and shared the responsibility of running the El Ranchitos. Each restaurant is under the personal care of a family member guaranteeing that family recipes

are followed very closely. Today, it is still a family business; family owned, family operated, and family loved.

The Avila family welcomes you!
