    I came to El Rincon Enchilado under some unusual circumstances since they were dealing with plumbing issues and had their dining room closed for a couple of days. We were still able to order takeout, but since we couldn't sit inside, we ended up eating outside, which honestly affected the whole experience. The area is downtown, so you're surrounded by a lot of unhoused individuals and it felt a bit uncomfortable and unsafe at times. To top it off, there's a church right across the street and during the 30 minutes we were there, the bells rang twice and were insanely loud. Maybe it's just a Sunday thing, but wow, it was impossible to ignore and definitely didn't make for a relaxing meal. Between the noise and the surroundings, we found ourselves wanting to leave as soon as possible. That being said, the woman helping us was very kind, honest, and communicative about what was going on, which I really appreciated. I ordered the poblano omelette based on her recommendation and presentation wise it looked great. It came with a side of fruit that included tangerines and jicama, which I actually enjoyed a lot and ate first while my food cooled down. The omelette itself was decent but some parts of the eggs felt a little overcooked and just not as fluffy or flavorful as I hoped. The potatoes were fine, nothing bad but nothing memorable either. My friend ordered three tacos, one shrimp and two other types, and unfortunately they tasted far from fresh, which was probably the biggest disappointment of the meal. I originally found this spot on TikTok and was really excited to try it, but overall it felt a bit overhyped based on our experience. I'm giving it three stars mainly for the food and the friendly service, but between the environment and the quality not quite hitting the mark, I probably won't be coming back. It wasn't terrible by any means, just not worth the hassle for me personally.

    Were yall been all my life me and the wife came to shop at the Santee Alley and we were hungry so we wanted to try something new and we started googling and this place popped up and honestly super surprised their tacos are delicious their salsas on point and that garlic habanero wow hit the spot am very surprised we have never came across this place this is homemade taste good food keep it up your food is legit and we will be coming back

    They are the best . This is for health reasons and high protein. You should try them

    Omelette mexicano , French Toast, Chilaquiles Salsa Arbol, Cafe de Olla 12oz,

    Stumbled upon El Rincon Enchilado as my family and I were trying to find a good brunch spot before hitting the Santee Alley. Overall experience was extremely mediocre. Though the staff was nice the service was a bit slow, it took them about 15 minutes to take our orders after we sat down, and there were only two other tables being waited on. In our experience, we concluded that looks can be very deceiving. The presentation of the food was aesthetic, but in terms of flavor it was very lackluster. To start off, the menus were very vague and had no descriptions of what ingredients were in their plates. I will say, though their prices were pretty reasonable. The café de olla was just regular coffee, no cinnamon no Piloncillo. One of my family members got a burrito where the potatoes were not fully cooked or softened. There was actually a few pieces of burned/hardened potato (probably left over from a different batch) found in the burrito. The Chilaquiles were also mediocre as two of my family members got Chilaquiles in salsa arbol and the other Chilaquiles were the poblanos. We ordered scrambled eggs and pancakes for our youngest cousin who stated that the eggs were cold when she received them. The omelette mexicano was lacking significant flavor. There was no salt in the omelette and the egg tasted as it had been cooked in quite a bit of oil. The potato situation was the same as the burrito, lacking salt and a bit undercooked. The french toast and pancakes were probably the only great thing we had. The food overall was lacking a lot of flavor and seasoning. We had to ask for salt and salsas that helped the experience a little bit. Absolutely no hate to this establishment, but our expectations were higher and we would respectfully not return.

    First time stopping in and definitely a do over. Cute digs, good service and salsa hot enough to taste twice. Thank you for the good food and welcoming energy

We will definitely be coming back because there is too much good stuff to order and the FLAVORS ARE 100% AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FLAVORS ! Also the orchata and cafe de olla are amazing!

    Was walking baby and noticed this lil cozy spot on corner of my job with Apple Pay options so I decided to stop. Right of the back, I got greeted . The menu is super simple but the ingredients are very traditional. I'm pescatarian so I had to go for the hand made tortilla shrimp tacos. I had to add the garlic habanero sauce, and Let me tell ya, they were delicious! I highly recommend

    Tucked just off the main strip, this hidden gem serves amazing food with friendly, attentive service -- all at reasonable prices. Definitely worth the visit. Come out and support this local spot!

    The French toast and breakfast burritos were so good (I tried ham, veggie and shrimp). It was light but also filling with large portions. Will definitely try out the rest of the menu

    Shrimp tacos.

    The place is very nice and clean, the food is amazing. And the service was great. Definitely recommend.

I came here for dinner on a week night and my experience here was pretty good. I had the asada and al pastor tacos with all the toppings and they were both so good and full of meat and heat. The toppings can be spicy for some, so be warned. My favorite of the two was the all pastor which was flavorful and I did like the thinly shaved meat. It was not dry at all and was fresh. I also tried the mulita with al pastor meat and that was also soso good. Cheesy, meaty, and indulgent. The additional topping section had good variety with pickled onions, cucumbers, etc. and everything seemed pretty fresh. Unfortunately, they were pretty much out of the roasted pepper and grilled onions at the time I went. To drink, I had the horchata and that was also very delicious. It was huge, sweet, and creamy. I also loved how it was not grainy at all. A good pairing with the rich foods. They also have a good amount of seating at the stand with a long table and multiple chairs. Parking is tricky since its street parking only.

Just make sure you order enough the first time so you dont have to wait in line again. There is some parking but it gets pretty crowded too so you might have to street park (and the area around can get a little sketch) so be careful. The second time we came here was almost 1130pm right before their midnight closing. This time, the parking lot was emptier so we managed to park inside. There was still a pretty steady stream of customers even around closing, but at least the line isn't ridiculously long. Can't go wrong with anything you order here!

My friend also got a burrito and I heated it up the next day to enjoy and it still tasted awesome. My review might be slightly skewed as Mexican food is depressing up in Canada so any semblance of authentic Mexican food gets me going. I will have to return to LA soon...just for the tacos here.

I do like how they grill their meat though and they use the tortillas to scoop up the meat on the grill. Thought the al pastor was a bit salty and the cheese did not add much flavor to it, but that's probably a good thing considering the saltiness of the meat. Also, make sure you ask them for pineapples since they did not include it until we asked. They do have them sliced up in a container by the meats. Ambience is very casual and it's a stand while eating type of situation. Service was quick.

You can tell that it's house made and I liked the chewy texture of it. However, respectfully the filling felt and tasted like bean goo. I could only really taste the refried bean flavor which was strong. It kind of meshed all the components together into a gooey filling. I got this with asada meat and the meat was kind of chewy and not so flavorful on its own. Props to the tortilla though for not spilling everything out and holding it together well, but still a bit difficult to eat. I would ask for utensils when eating this dish. The green onion garnish was unique. I wish they gave more lime wedges because that helped elevate the dish. For $13 this wasn't too bad, but I'd rather get a better burrito from a street vendor. This is a casual eats type of place with both indoor and outdoor seating and tables. They also serve alcohol and even frozen alcoholic drinks. They have a free parking lot in front, but it can be competitive to get a spot. Overall, my experience here was just okay and I would opt for other spots.
