Restaurant Spotlight – Rancho El Molcajete

Restaurant Spotlight – Rancho El Molcajete

One of the most talked-about subjects in our Facebook group is restaurants. MIC’s Economic Development Committee decided to visit Mableton restaurants periodically, and provide some basic information about them — or in other words, “shine a spotlight” on the restaurants in our community. MIC does not endorse the restaurants; the Spotlight exists simply to introduce Mabletonians to restaurants in Mableton.

  • When we went: July 25th, Wednesday, 1:15pm
  • Staff: friendly
  • Type of food : Mexican, Southwestern
  • What we ate: Pork Gordita, Chicken Torte

  • Location: 493 Veterans Memorial Hwy SW, Mableton GA 30126 (across from former Book House, next to El Solecito)
  • Phone: 770.896.6031
  • Food Safety Score: 78 (6.21.18, FS permit)
  • Ambience: very bright, cheery Mexican décor of sombreros, tablecloths, Mexican serapes and very clean (except windows quite smudged)
  • Wifi? yes
  • Parking info: adequate, paved
  • Website: none found, but Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Rancho-El-Molcajete-Mexican-Restaurant-251357844911927
