Hubby and I are originally from the West Coast, we moved to Michigan about 5 years ago, ever since then we’ve been on the search of an actual authentic Mexican restaurant, highly disappointed with “Mexican Town,” we’ve been sticking to Taco Trucks as we tend to find the food more appetizing than in Mexican restaurants. However, this place has become our go-to spot when we want to dine-in, in my personal opinion, it’s the most authentic restaurant we’ve found thus far. Flavor is there, the portions are generous, the dishes are what they are, they have that home-made essence to them; overall this place feels and tastes like home, highly recommended!

For places like this, I go there straight for the food. Brother I tell you what!!!!! the food was straight fire!!!!. Birria tacos were 2x the size of a regular taco. She busted out that taco(s) and I was like “damnnnnn Homie that’s a big taco.” Also, they have Coca-Cola Refresco. Clean as hell too.

Friendly waitress, knowledgeable about the menu. Had plenty of seating.We dined in, ordered for two people. Waited quite some time for our food which was odd as there were only 4 other people seated waiting for their food. But to be fair, people came in and out for takeout.Our food came out separately, one person ate while the other sat and waited at least another 10+ minutes. Ordered the loaded French fries with chorizo, fries were cold. Tacos with chicken, 2 portions, the chicken was a bit on the bland side, not the best. However other person ordered the beef quesadillas and they were delicious and super hot! We were served fresh hot chips, but they didn’t come with anything to dip in (disappointing as the chips were good)In my opinion, the food orders took too long, especially since the restaurant was quite empty.

Parking: The parking lot is small, if it’s busy then finding a spot will be difficult

I loved this place when it was El Patron. The next owner I think got me sick. But Rincon is my new favorite hidden gem! I’m an authentic taco snob, and this place hits the spot! Carnitas and Al Pastor tacos are so good! Chips and salsa are excellent as well! Will be back!

Great atmosphere, safe. Place, good service. I would like to add a little bit more spices to my Food. I will most definitely go again. And I think they need more parking space.

El Rincon in Pontiac, Michigan, is a hidden gem that truly exceeded my expectations as I was passing through the area. As someone who has had excellent tacos all across Texas I have to say the beef and tripe tacos I ordered were delightfully delicious, generously packed with a variety of fresh toppings and bursting with flavor and clearly made with love. The salsas, expertly crafted, were the perfect complement to the tacos. The quality of the food and the attentive service made it clear that these tacos are made with a genuine passion. El Rincon in Pontiac, Michigan, may just be the culinary jewel of the Midwest, particularly for taco aficionados.

Most of the staff does not speak English so it made it very difficult for us to get served. We order at the deskThat seemed pretty straightforward. Then she told us to sit down. After waiting a half an hour we still hadn't received drinks or chip. Let alone our food. We pretty much had to beg for our drinks and we never received our chip. When our food finally came the steak was over cooked and the only salsa that was available to us was extremely spicy. I couldn't even eat my food.
