ABOUT MI RANCHITO

It all started in the kitchen when the Armenta family came to Utah from Guanajuato, Mexico. 
Mama brought with her the wonderful recipes that have been in the family for generations. 
A blend of secret ingredients, strict attention to freshness and quality have been the foundation of the tradition of good cooking you will find at Mi Ranchito. It was Papa, though, who had the idea to involve the whole family and create a truly special restaurant. 
The entire family pitched in and helped in the first Mi Ranchito when it opened in Orem, Utah back in 1983. Manuel and Senorina Armenta eventually shared the responsibility of running Mi Ranchito with their sons and daughters. Each restaurant is under the personal care of a family member, guaranteeing that the family recipes are followed very closely. Today Mi Ranchito it is still a family business; 
family-owned, family-operated, and family loved.

And with legacy each one of the kids has their own story, They also worked hard for what they wanted, which is what Lourdes the owner of Mi Ranchito (American Fork) did. She worked hard throughout the years to learn everything about the restaurant. Today till this day she operates happily the restaurant, doing what she loves the most. And that is getting to make authentic Mexican food, and getting to meet different people every day.
