Rancho Los Magueyes

Lived in Upland most of my life and somehow never heard or been to this place until today. Saw recommendations on a group for Upland so I tried it out today for my birthday. Quick, friendly service, had water and a margarita within a couple minutes. The full bar has plenty of options! The chips and salsa came out instantly, the salsa had a great flavor! Which is sadly rare now. We got a wet carne asada burrito and the 2 taco combination plate. Rice and beans are excellent and what I always judge first. Shredded beef was juicy and flavorful. Carne asada is tender and full of flavor. My fiance and I both loved this place and will be back! Portions are large, too! The wet burrito is HUGE.

I have lived in Upland for over 20 years! I've been in this center so many times in so many places close by. A good friend of mine just told me about this restaurant this past Friday night. We were pleasantly surprised at this hidden gem. We ate here last Friday as well as today, Sunday. I made this review two visits in one! I wish we would have found this place much, much sooner!!!To start off for Friday night, we had the chips and salsa as an appetizer. You can almost never go wrong on this. I love their salsa, but I am allergic to onions, so I just worked around not eating the white onions and tried to have my friend eat more of those. I don't fault the restaurant for my onion allergy, but they do put so many onions. I still love the red part of the salsa. On the second round of chips and salsa, I asked for their green salsa, which I really love. It doesn't have any onions!!! To drink, I just had water, and my friend three Dos Equis XX. We then ordered our main courses. My friend ordered two ground beef tacos, and I ordered the simple bean and cheese burrito. He seemed to like his tacos pretty well. I really enjoyed my burrito. It was huge, flavorful, and tasted very well with the green salsa.Both days, we had great service from every worker there. Each man or lady who helped us also checked up on us very often. We appreciated their hospitality here. Every worker seemed that they worked really hard and enjoy their jobs here. The place seemed very clean inside and outside. We also were able to request watching our hockey games on the same television both days at the center bar area. We even appreciated that they put the volume up a little, so we did get some game sound.So when we came back Sunday for the second time, we definitely had the chips and salsa again. They brought us two red salsas and one green salsa. I was able to transfer most of the onions from mine to my friends. After a little while, we ordered the chicken tortilla soup and requested an empty bowl to share as it is a very, very large bowl! $15.95 is steep for paying for even a large bowl of soup. However, I knew if we were going to pay that much, it must be good. I have to say sharing was a great idea. The soup had a lot of flavor! Had a good amount of chicken, noodles, and even avocado!!! I also added some of my broken salsa chips in periodically to give the soup some more crunch! So technically, this ended up being $8 each to share the big bowl of soup. I think it was still a steep cost, but we thought it was still well worth it! Along with sharing the tortilla soup, we both had one taco each. We both ended up having one shredded beef taco each. The taco was very decent sized, and I loved putting the green salsa on it. I did appreciate the taco meat not having onions! There was so much lettuce and cheese left. It was like I had a free salad, so I made a salad by adding some tortilla chips broken up and some of the green salsa as my dressing! After this, we were both so full. I had water, and my friend had 2 Dos Equis XX beers again to wash it all down.Overall, these were two wonderful visits!!! We will definitely be back! I was so blessed to talk with one of the workers before I left for other suggestions for when we return. It's located in the center on Mountain Ave and 16th St in Upland by Upland Donuts, Legends, and the Hi Brow (formerly Bull Dog Pub). Stop in and give them a try!!!

Good food and service. Lively and noisy bar , especially on Friday night when we dined. the food was delicious and service was good. It is very conveniently located in the north parking lot of 16th and Mountain. The guacamole was excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant

Service is always spot on and on point! Everyone there is super kind and very hospitable! This is my Sunday football spot! Food is so great and always tasteful!

Have always seen this place was headed to the good ole HI Brow decided to try something new. Football Sunday .. attentive service , very nice . The food was excellent. Had mojo de ajo ... fantastic rice n beans ( that's where these places usually go wrong) so good ! Had fried ice cream for desert - couple of drinks ... love it all ! We definitely be back !

We have passed by this restaurant all the time and we finally decided to try out this restaurant. The food was yummy but a bit more cheesy than we expected. I like cheese but if you don't you might want to pick a dish that doesn't have too much cheese.

I really wanted to try this place for lunch. Obviously not a lunch go to, they don't even open till 12pm? I guess I may try it in the evening sometime.

Sorry to say that after a half dozen or so meals here, we are done. More is not always better.

I enjoy eating here if when they don't regularly fail health inspections.SB county cited this location on 11/19/24 for multiple violations including "Hands Clean and properly washed, gloves used prep," "proper hot and cold holding temperatures," and "Food in Good Condition, safe and unadulterated."If you are a gambler, go for it. Otherwise avoid this place. Food is decent but not foodborn illness good, not even close.

I ordered on the way home from an outing for take out. 3 burritos and a side of soup were $64. No salsa for burritos. Ordered corn tortillas, got flour. Soup used to be delicious, now taste like they added a can of tomato sauce as filler. Only 2 meatballs in albondigas. It's really just veggie tomato soup. I will say the taste of burritos was pretty good considering no condiments, really basic. Upon pick up I was ignored. Staff not pleasant at all. Have ordered from here and the taco shop on Euclid for many years. I think I'm done. There are others happy to have the business with better tasting food.
