This is my second time ordering the same classic asada burrito around lunch time. Last time I was in the area and need a quick lunch but I had a great impression of the burrito. I like it because it is flavorful, juicy, while not over seasoned or greasy. My so far to go place for burrito. There are too many to try and it takes luck.

Tried this place for the first time tonight, and we really enjoyed it. We will definitely be back. The handmade tortillas and sauces were amazing! Wonderful service as well. Can't wait to try some of the other dishes.

Delicious food, very friendly service, cute dining room and great music. The mole plate was large and tasty as was the Carne Asada burrito. Yummy horchata too. Highly recommend! Update 9/25- ordered and LOVED the Pachucos, especially the Cochinita Pibil. The music playing in the restaurant was so lovely that we Shazamed most of the songs. El Rinconcito is a gem.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood. From the moment I walked in, the customer service was top-notch, making me feel right at home. The food? Amazing! Each dish burst with authentic flavors that took my taste buds on a delightful journey. And the best part? Free chips and salsa that were the perfect starters. I'm thrilled to have such an authentic Mexican culinary gem nearby!

I went to this restaurant on last Thursday and tried out their special Thursday meatballs soup. I love it so much because it is hot and delicious. I have tried their handmade tortilla, and it is authentic and got a taste from the farmland. It did take some time to serve, and it is reasonable for something really made out of scratches. I will be back for other dishes soon. The parking is easy. Highly recommended! Gracias

New Yucatecan food spot! And this one hits, better than some other more-known spots. But service was quick and friendly, and the food was just delicious. Amazing the variety of menu being pumped out from that tiny kitchen! Must order the panuchos and poc chuc. If you know, you know

The food here is so good, everything is fresh and delicious! It’s a hidden gem, don’t sleep on this place, chips and salsa are included but you have to ask.

Mexican food can be hard to find in the Pacific Northwest, so when I heard about El Rinconcito, I had to check it out for lunch. This restaurant offers a taste of the Yucatán right in Portland, with plenty of options and rich flavors. The fresh tortillas and empanadas are a standout! The staff is friendly, and there’s a parking lot available, making it convenient. I highly recommend visiting El Rinconcito. Enjoy the food and thank me later!
