Tortilleria El Rancherito is an authentic Mexican tortilleria and taqueria with locations in Red Oak, TX and Gun Barrel City, TX, serving fresh handmade tortillas, street tacos, tamales, barbacoa, carnitas, and traditional Mexican groceries.
Made From Scratch, Every Day.

Fresh Handmade Tortillas
Made from scratch every single day. Our corn and flour tortillas are pressed and cooked right here — soft, warm, and nothing like what you get from a store. This is what a real tortilleria does.
Authentic Street Tacos
Barbacoa slow-cooked until it falls apart. Carnitas braised to perfection. Pastor with that perfect char. Every taco starts with our handmade tortillas and real, traditional recipes.


Mexican Grocery & More
More than a restaurant — we're a tortilleria and Mexican grocery. Pick up fresh tortillas by the pack, grab tamales for the family, or shop our selection of authentic Mexican products to take home.

I've lived in the Dallas area since 2004. I can now confidently say that the best Mexican food is right here in Red Oak. As authentic and flavorful as it gets. Everything is made right on site and it's worth the drive.
