El Bronco Ranch Market is an authentic Mexican restaurant and grocery store located in Ellicott, about 20 minutes east of Colorado Springs. It is a hidden, family-owned business in a Spanish grocery store, described as a solitary oasis and a cozy, welcoming place for everyone. The food is consistently praised as the best, amazing, flavorful, and authentic, not ruined by fusion. Specific highlights include the barbacoa burrito with meat cooked to perfection, the barbacoa torta, fantastic tamales, and homemade chips and salsa included with meals, with salsa available to go. The chicken quesadilla and homemade caramel are also loved. The service is exceptional, impressive, and super friendly, with cheerful and accommodating staff. The environment is laid-back. The market is also valued as a crucial convenience, carrying grocery items that save a long drive. Customers find it well worth the trip and report having a great experience, planning to return again and again as there is nowhere else like it.
