[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance: on the patio was the perfect place to sit and still hear the live flamenco band outside without it being too loud to chat[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food: I had the chimichanga on the waiters recommendation and it was worth it to try something new for me! It's made with sopapilla. Pretty good. We also had the guacamole salad (delicious) and a jalapeno margarita (excellent; one of the best jalapeno margaritas I have had) Parking can be kind of tight especially on the weekends. We were lucky to be in walking distance from our hotel Service was very on top of it! Fast, responsive, but not rushing us at all. read more

To start I asked why the prices were 3+ for each item compared to their website. Their answer had holes in their story like if the owner is dead why would the site be still up (someone is paying for it...) Next I have a severe corn allergy and the response was "i dont know why people come to a restaurant that they know they will have allergies at." Then they delivered my dip with CORN TORTILLAS CHIPS sticking out if it! They charged me extra without telling me it would be extra for asking for flour tortillas as a substitute for the chips so I could eat my dip. When i brought this to the manager he said "i dont agree with it but I'll take it off" IM ALLERGIC TO IT! She said it was a substitute! Main dish came out and I have NEVER been to a Mexican restaurant that doesn't bring my fajitas on a cast iron separately than the other stuff. There were 2 shrimps, 1 piece of chicken and 3 small pieces of beef. This cost me $32. This is higher than San Diego prices! Oh and to top it off the sour cream was frozen when it came out. Service was seriously lacking. All in all the food didn't even taste all that great and they nickel and dime everything. Lastly I was using a gift certificate and they added a mandatory 20% tip and a 3.75% fee for cc for the difference and taxes were 12% overall I paid 20+ in fees and taxes (30%+ of the total bill) read more

After a very long hike, we stopped here for for what was a late lunch but an early dinner. We were seated immediately, which is great because both my friend and I were starving. We got chips and salsa as well as some nachos to share. They also have Mexican drinks if you're looking for a Mexican Coke or Fanta it goes well with your food. This is the place to get it. For our mains, my friend got a tostada, and I got a combination of tamale and an enchilada. The serving size was ginormous, and the food tasted delicious. The service goes fast, and the servers are very nice and friendly. Since this is in a very touristy area, it was difficult to find parking, but there are a bunch of parking lots in the area so keep looking. If you're looking for a big meal with lots of flavor, you've come to the right spot. read more

After a long hike, we were starving. We stumbled upon El Rincon while browsing the shopping plaza. On a Saturday, our wait wasn't too bad and we were able to get a table outside. There were 4 of us and we decided to share a nacho and fajitas plates. We also had a sopapilla. We thought we were going light btwn the 4 of us sharing, but it ended up actually really being filling. No complaints! Our waiter was great and always made sure we had tortilla chips, salasa and water. I would like to try other items on the menu in the future. read more

We tried this place for lunch and had a good experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a group of 8 split up between 2 tables on the covered patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chips and salsa were tasty. The salsa has a nice kick to it, but not overwhelming. My daughter enjoyed her quesadilla with rice and beans. My wife tried the shredded beef taco salad. The portion size was huge and it had great flavor. I tried the rolled quesadillas. It came with six tasty pieces. The service was good and the staff were friendly. read more

If you want to have severe food poisoning that lasts for DAYS, eat here. Otherwise, be smart, heed my warning and stay as far away from this sorry excuse of a Mexican restaurant. My family and I took a day trip up to Sedona on Friday, 2/27, and by Saturday evening we were all throwing up and had severe diarrhea. It's been almost a week and we're still suffering the repercussions of a quick decision to eat here with vomiting, diarrhea, and excruciating stomach pain. Now I'm not sure if it's actual food poisoning or cross-contamination that caused us to be this horrendously ill, but never again will I step foot in this subpar, clearly unclean restaurant. I will be contacting the health department and am requesting a refund from the restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]To have guests dine in, and be THIS sick, is unacceptable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And I know for a fact we got sick here because 4 out of our 5 family members are extremely ill, myself included; we all have the same symptoms, and the only thing we did differently was eat at this restaurant. So, stay away, friends. Unless you're wanting to lose a few pounds by means of vomiting nonstop and diarrhea, then have at it! read more

Was referred here and we were craving Mexican so we were so happy to pull in to Tlaquepaque and see it right away and get a table. The prickly pear margarita (my friend got with Tito's instead- might have been laughed at) was REALLY GOOD- I got the house/rocks/salt. I got the beans and chicken tostado and it was the perfect amount of food and really good. My friend got an enchilada and beef taco and liked it too. I don't feel like it was anything groundbreaking but we were super happy, good service and solid drinks. read more

Food was average but we were so hungry and there was not a long wait. They have patio with outdoor seating and heat lamps. The Navajo Pizza was good but the crust was kinda soggy. The large nachos were ginormous and could be shared by the entire table. The salsa was the hit of the party. Everything was just average. read more

We came here a little after lunch rush. We were seated promptly, given waters, chips and salsa, and were always taken care of with service. Our server was always friendly and the food came quickly. Maybe I just didn't like our food that much. I'd return for the service, though. We were seated outside. Their patio is nice and the place feels well maintained. My wife and I were waiting to check in to our room so we got an easy plate of nachos and a margarita. The drink was fine. The nachos, however, looked like they had ingredients thrown on top of them and they were just put into an oven for a few minutes. They seriously had the impression of homemade microwave nachos. The ingredients were fresh ish, parts of it were tasty, but I certainly wouldn't order it again and wouldn't advise anyone else to. The presentation seemed lazy. I wish I'd have had the stomach to order more food and try some favorites. I looked at other peoples' food on the way out and it seemed fine. This really had the potential to be a 4* review. Only having had the nachos and a drink, it's 3*. read more

This was such a lovely restaurant. We sat outside on the patio so we could hear the nearby live music. My Navajo pizza was so good. And the margarita, oh my god, it was so good. Definitely get a margarita! read more

The best lunch deal in Sedona has to be the delicious chicken fajita salad at El Rincon ($17). The salad is chock full of large pieces of stir fried fajita chicken, together with sautéed sweet onions, bell peppers, chopped ripe tomatoes and chopped romaine lettuce. There is also a large scoop of guacamole and relish of pickled onions. The salad, together with the complimentary chips and homemade salsa, made a full, satisfying meal. Friendly service and a beautiful dining room make for a perfect dining experience. read more

El Rincon Restaurante Mexicano - Enchiladas and house salsa (so good!!) - Mexican Near Me - Sedona, Arizona

This is a really neat place that mixes Mexican with Native American. We had been here previously and had enjoyed a pizza but wanted to try a new topping..the base of the pizza is not your traditional corn shell but rather more of a Indian Flat Bread. The flavors are very good and the portion is generous. A small is definitely shareable. We also decided to try the cheese enchilada and the chicken tamale. The enchilada had an amazing sauce. It was really good. The tamale was okay... I'm not sure I would get it again but our server recommended it and I had never had a chicken tamale before. The rice and beans were also really good but I was disappointed in the portion as it was $6.50 to add on and it was only about a small scoop. All in all, I'd come again. It is a unique experience with great flavor. Our server was attentive and we had everything we needed. I did do 4 stars instead of 5 as I do feel the prices so not reflect the food quantity/quality. I also wish they would provide more space between tables as we were seated back by the restrooms and it was a little bit of a tight fit. There were 3 tables by the restrooms.. 2 tables that seated 2 and one that seated 4. read more

Cute little Mexican restaurant in Tlaquepaque Arte and crafts village. Traditional Mexican cuisine. They have a cute covered patio where you can have drinks and/or dinner. We started with two Margs and asked for Herradura Silver tequila. These were soooo good! They served us free chips and salsa. The salsa is authentic and has a nice kick. The chips are very light and crispy. For our meal we ordered the chicken tacos - I asked to change from crispy shells to regular corn tortillas instead which is the authentic way to eat tacos in mexico. And hubby ordered the steak tacos or carne asada. He said they were delicious. My chicken tacos were not very flavorful. Just tasted like boiled chicken. We had ordered a side of Guac so I added some of it to my chicken tacos to spice them up a little. The food came super fast we were hoping to take our time but we came at an odd time and the cooks were not very busy at all. For dessert we tried the house made flan and it was delicious. Just the perfect consistency and flavor was 10/10. I would definitely come back to this cute little place in Tlaquepaque Arts and crafts village. read more

This a very popular place, and there is always a wait to be seated. They told us 30 minutes and called us in 10. As for the food, it's your average Mexican food. There's nothing wrong with the food. But honestly, you can get this level of food anywhere. I had a combination plate of green corn tamales with a beef taco. Both wee flavorful and cooked well. One thing I did appreciate that others may not is the portion size was smaller than I usually get at other Mexican restaurants. Now for me this was a plus because I was able to finish, not have leftovers, and not feel overly stuffed. read more

The server was very friendly but would disappear often when we needed another beverage, more napkins or to check on our approval of our entrees. The fajitas did not come on a sizzling platter as they do in most restaurants. The shrimp, pep pans onions were cold by the tortillas were warm. They did not have a decent fajita flavor and were quite a disaster. The chicken fajita salad did not have any greens and was mostly beans and grilled peppers but did have a flavorful small piece of chicken breast. The chips and salsa are just ok. If you are truly hungry for an authentic Mexican meal this is not the restaurant to satisfy your desired Mexican Meal Experience. read more

They were so busy when we went! The patio was perfect weather and had great coverage from the sun. Our margaritas.. incredible! I got the prickly pear and it was so good I got a second one! We ordered the spinach queso as a starter and it was yummy. Our food was good, but not great. Our favorite parts of the meals were the chicken enchiladas and the green chili/ Shrimp tacos. We would go again for sure! read more

It was our first time here and we left so happy we came! The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly; especially the chicken fajitas, which were sizzling, tender, and packed with flavor. Cruz was our waiter and he was absolutely wonderful! Attentive without hovering, genuinely kind, and made sure we had everything we needed from start to finish.

My family and I tried this spot while in Sedona and this place was very yummy! we sat outside on the patio to enjoy the weather. Our server was very nice! I ordered the chimichanga with shredded Machaca beef onions and cilantro with Green Chile Sauce and with a side of beans and rice. This was sooooo goood! I loved it! I want to try the Navajo Pizza next time, that sounded good as well. It is basically what I got but in a pizza form hahaha they had soooo many things on the menu to choose from. My husband got the Machaca Beef Burrito with Red chile sauce and with a side of rice and beans. Then my son got the kids shredded beef burrito with rice and beans. They also really enjoyed their meals! My husband and I also tried the Spicy Mango Margarita and this tasted like candy! It was delicious. then for dessert we tried the churros and ice cream and this was good as well nothing crazy special but good enough to satisfy the sweet tooth! I will return again when I come back out to Sedona! read more
