About El Rinconcito Chapin

El Rinconcito Chapin is a cozy, family-owned restaurant serving authentic Guatemalan cuisine. The large, clean, and nicely decorated space features traditional oil on canvas paintings and vibrant colors, creating a warm and lively atmosphere. The attentive and friendly staff offer a range of authentic dishes, including various tamales, chicken tamales wrapped in banana leaves, and the mole de plátano dessert. The restaurant also offers typical Guatemalan breakfast options, such as #17, which includes longanizas, scrambled eggs, fried sweet plantains, sour cream, black blended beans, panela cheese, and savory tomato salsa. The handmade tortillas are thin enough to fold but thick enough to provide a nice texture. This hidden gem is a must-visit for those seeking a cultural experience and a taste of Guatemala in Austin. With unique menu options and fresh, delicious Latin American cuisine, El Rinconcito Chapin is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for comfort food or a new culinary adventure. Customers have praised the food as superb and the restaurant for its cleanliness.
