Wish I could have tried the food since it's top rated for that area. Would be nice to be greeted when you walk in, Instead of getting dirty looks by the waitress that seems like they didn't want to work. We stood basically in the middle of the restaurant a couple was waiting to either be checked out or waiting to eat for about ten minutes. Two waitresses saw the couple standing at the register and obviously saw my son and I standing a couple of feet away from them. Both didn't acknowledge either party besides the dirty look both girls gave one brunette and the other blonde. After the looks and waiting ten minutes without anyone saying a word to us we just walked out. Please acknowledge your guests for example: " hello! Welcome! We are a bit busy today but someone will be right with you." Or " hello! It's going to be a few minutes before I can get you, as soon as I finish these orders I'll be right with you." I don't think it's that hard to make someone feel comfortable and welcomed. I didn't feel welcomed at all so I was uncomfortable waiting any longer and went down to 161 down the road where the lady didn't have much food left but was very sweet! She said hello right as we walked in apologized for not having much and had a smile which made want to go back to her.

This has the best spanish food around here. You can taste the love in the food. I've never been disappointed eating here. While waiting for my tostones to finish cooking I sat there and watched. They are constantly changing their gloves to ensure the safety of customers. When they weren't serving anyone, they were turning all the food with the serving spoons and cleaning up. The best part is the quality and integrity of the food they serve. I love food and I can tell you that El Rincon is throwing down in their kitchen too. Excellent job guys!! Buen Provecho

I wonder how much their food cost them wholesale or retail? I had heard that much of the food served there was bought on EBT CARDS. I hope not true, but it just may be.

I have been a customer for some time and some things are hand made. Empanadas, sandwiches etc. Freshly done and ok prices. Is not cheap but not imposible. As of the ebt being used sounds more like gossip.

Does the mofongo have pork inside of it?

Not inside, but you can order it with a variety of meats including pork or by itself.
