El Rinconcito is a Latin American restaurant that offers a cozy and friendly atmosphere, making guests feel like they're dining at a friend's house. The menu includes a variety of dishes, such as Pollo Al Horno, a Cubano sandwich, empanadas, and Mofongo, all of which are highly praised by customers. The service is friendly, and the prices are reasonable, making it a popular spot for those seeking delicious Latin American food.
The Pollo Al Horno, a family combo with a whole chicken, white rice, beans, and mixed green salad, is a must-try. The chicken is described as amazing, juicy, and well-seasoned, with a green sauce that complements it well. The beans are also well-seasoned and go well with the white rice and chicken. The Mofongo, a Puerto Rican dish made with mashed plantains, is highly recommended, especially the one with Penir. Breaded steaks, rice with gandules, red beans, and garlic toast are also highly praised.
The Cubano sandwich is perfect, with light and crispy bread, and a filling of ham, pork, Swiss cheese, and mayo. The pork has a nice touch of garlic and pepper. Empanadas are also highly recommended, with the beef option tasting like a beef chili with a light and buttery crust. The restaurant also offers a hot buffet with options like chipotle chicken.
While not all dishes meet expectations, the overall experience is positive. Customers praise the terrific food, friendly staff, and inviting atmosphere. One customer called the cheeseburger deluxe the best burger in years, noting how well seasoned and delicious it was. Overall, El Rinconcito remains a great option for those looking for tasty Latin American food and a warm environment.
