Best grilled chicken burrito in Modesto!! I've been going here for years! I tried their mixed fajitas today and was just as happy, great flavor and a nice portion size. The staff is very friendly and the whole place has a relaxed, casual vibe. The connected bakery makes it even better as it always smells amazing when you walk in. You can get both your savory and sweet fix in one stop. Awesome value and good food overall. =) read more

Over priced breakfast burritos for just a slab of refried beans, rice and eggs. Not worth $14. Should be a bit more affordable for what your getting. read more

I bought a wet burrito and after my third bite I bit into a small metal screen that was in my burrito I was so grossed out I took the burrito back and brought the screen with me and explained to the lady at the counter and she didn't even seem to care she just refunded my money and I will never go back there read more

Almost $16 for a supper burrito! Because they did add ons for sour cream and guacamole! Shouldn't a supper burrito include these! Last time I'll go here! I'll stick to Jalapeños restaurant! read more

Need to update their hours online and learn some fucking manners. Arrived at the time they list as opened. Stood outside in 39 degree weather for almost 20 minutes. People inside cooking and walking around but never once acknowledged my presence, and I'm in a 6xl high viz Orange shirt. Not once did they stop at the door and let me know they didn't open until 6 or let me in out of the cold to wait or even put up the number 6 with their fingers to tell me I'm early. Literally got fed up and went into the bakery that's connected only to be told they aren't open until 6 even though it says 5 online. Was offered to wait for 40 more minutes. Burritos are good but the customer service is shit. read more

This is a good inexpensive restaurant. Yes the prices have gone up but hasn't everything. But still it's very good food. The service is quick and the food is always hot. The chili rellenos are my favorite. Then end it by going next door and getting some fresh sweet bread . Use too get it from my grandma all the time so it brings back great memories. It's not fancy but gives of that old time feeling of country vibes . Give it a try u won't be disappointed. read more

Not to bad. I go here sometimes just bcuz it's close to home. I've had much better. If you need a quick close spot. Try it. Otherwise Nah...... read more

This place is ridiculously over priced! 4 tacos for $22! Nothing special about the tacos! Plainly seasoned and salsa just taste like tomato sauce! I ended up throwing the other 2 tacos away because I couldn't have that plain meat anymore with lame ass sauce! No prices on the website so you can't see what a rip off they are charging you until you pay! I went here for the convenience and only have 30 mins to pu food and eat! But I would rather drive my whole 30 mins for good food and reasonable price then have this ! Also they give you some stale ass chips and the same plain boring salsa to go with it! Never coming here again! I should have gone to taco bell for better food and more options on sauce . read more

I got charged over $28 for 4 veggie tacos because beans, avocados, and tomatoes are all "add on" charges, for a fucking VEGGIE taco!! WTF y'all ?? Are you serious?? All the tacos had were avocado, beans, onions, tomatoes, and salsa. The guy who rang me up just shrugged and said " I don't make the prices" . Never will set foot in this place again. Absolute highway robbery here. Stay away!! read more

Horrible food.. I got 3 shrimp tacos, they were so wet and mushy when I lifted the taco to my mouth it fell apart and fell back onto the plate I couldn't even eat it I wish I could get a refund they were inedible and tasteless read more

Five stars! Everything you could want at this one stop shop. Breakfast Burritos, pan dulce, donuts, fresh juice, hot coffee, canned beer! Excellent service, stay to eat or take out. Easy access from the 99. The lunch and dinner plates looked great but at 10am they he breakfast was delicious at a great price. The burritos can be shared they are huge. Glad we found it. read more

I can do better than this place but at the same time I haven't much better out here. The menu in the restaurant isn't descriptive so order accordingly. Do not think all burritos or a chimichangas are made the same. Be specific with your order. Thats the one thing we learned the hard way. The steak burrito was okay. My wife was in between with her chimichanga. She didn't like the red sauce being added and its not stated on menu but she will have order again without sauce. Could be cheaper, I think they're a little high. I recommend at least trying once, they're worthy of that. Customer service was decent. Decent restaurant. Bakery shop hookup next to it so thats a plus. Will do separate review for bakery. read more

Stopped in for a breakfast burrito while traveling Northbound on 99. Wow. Good call. Missed the Northbound exit and was glad i turned around. The ham breakfast burrito was delicious. read more

I usually eat Menudo and I got my lady pozole was disappointed With the pozole there was more bones then there was meat for the price I paid. the menudo was good like always next time we will just stick to the usual read more

Not a bad place to check out. Not the best food, but not bad Mexican food. Plus one of the few places with Gorditas! Also they have large portions if that's what you like. Great benefit is that this place is connected to a full-bar with a shared door inside so you can grab some food and bring foood through the inside door to the bar where you can order BBQ or order a few drinks. It's also connected to the bakery on the other side so you can grab some Mexican or American pastries as well. read more

The menudo and pozole were both great here. Clean restaurant and nice staff. And it's attached to a bomb panderia. I will for sure come back when I'm in the area. read more

Horrible ate tamales fresh and seasoned vs now bland blah yuk probably won't do the pandering next door

After reading a review in AAA magazine describing the Mexican Bakery (Panaderia) this small shopping center has a taco shop and bakery in the same building. I headed South on Hwy 99 taking the Kansas Exit, went West 2 blocks and what a nice treat. The bakery is open 24 hours. Enclosed are multiple photo's read more

I just ordered my food less than 30 minutes ago. I tried it because of the reviews. First I must say the man taking orders was very nice although he was hesitant to take my order. I never got a receipt for my order, although I asked for one. I ordered my food, I got the Carne burrito and a super carne quesadilla. Well, let's just say I'll never be going back to this slop. My food is extremely greasy to the point it leaked all over my bag and napkins, which I can't use to wipe my hands now. For the quesadilla I got 3 lousy cut square pieces absolutely no lettuce or salsa, which is to be expected with the super. The grease saturated the bottom slice to the point I won't touch it. So I hoped for better with the burrito. WRONG. I open the foil and grease is all over the foil, it's saturating the tortilla and I hate soggy tortillas!!!!!!! Sorry El Rincon, this kind of service just doesn't pass with me. read more

The guy taking the order was nice. The chips were stale as all hell. The salsas were nasty. I ordered tacos (pastor and asada) and the pastor was not what I expected. I couldn't figure out the flavor... almost curry like and too salty at the same time. Disappointed especially since they were 1.99 a taco. It's a no comeback for me. read more

Great breakfast burrito- not super cheap $6.50 but delicious and HUGE - enough to easily fill you up through lunch. Folks at both the donut side and the grill side are super super nice too. The panaderia pastries were okay - a little bland and a little dry. The churro was good though. This definitely beats the Starbucks down the street for both food and service. read more

Spent 27 dollars on 7 tacos last night. Birria quesa tacos to be exact. They were soggy i was so disappointed in the food. I had just got off of a hard day of work at the hospital and to pick up a order of food that is not worth eating is very disappointing. I called the restaurant when i got home but they were closed. So i called them the following day which is today and was told to bring the food back. I live about 30miles away from the restaurant and am at work again and wont be off til they almost close. No way i can grab it and bring it back in time before they close. Employee working didnt give a dam and said the manager wanted the tacos back.. lol i just told the employee its ok i will never come back. I been coming to this place for about 15 years or so but it has come to an end now! Thank you manager working on 11/5/20 at 1230pm. read more

Based on burrito order. The filling is a big slop of mush and I am not a fan of mushy. Its like the cheese, beans and rice were mixed in the same pot and scooped into tortillas as orders are made. Blech! I feel like this must be typical way to serve burritos in this area because El Rincon is not alone in serving their burritios this way. read more

Sometimes when we want a nice enchilada or taco lunch we stop in here. Casual dining or take out. The food is always quick and the taste is pretty consistent never a bad day which is pretty awesome because I get so frustrated when your craving a specific taste and the OTHER cooks in. Not this place..same taste same food everytime. But thats a good thing. read more

This place is good and super affordable. The food is authentic and you get lots of it on your plate. read more

El Rincon Taco Shop - Sopes. All this for $8 - Mexican Near Me - Modesto, California

That might just be the best chicken burrito I've ever eaten. I'm completely stuffed and totally hooked!

Service here is HORRIBLE!!! No customer service skills at all At least with that being said....I

I wish there wAs a negative star option! Utterly repulsive. Asked for a chicharon gordita and got a piece of nothing but fat with no salsa verde, tasted as if it was boiled in water and the masa was stale. Could not manage to swallow the tiny piece I cut of to taste, the trip tacos although a good size were also disgusting as the tripe was not cleaned and over cooked, the red salsa tasted as if it was made using can tomatoes. read more

This place is a hit or miss kind of place. One time I came here I decided to get a chicken burrito and it was really good. Plenty of meat rice beans etc. The next time I come here I got three tacos and they were absolutely disgusting. The tortilla fell apart on each taco and the meat was dryer than a popcorn fart this place has no consistency at all. read more

ok came all the way from Sacramento cus a few months ago we stopped and ordered a burrito de nopales and it was great. But came today and they no longer serve nopales that sucks!!! read more

Food is completely nasty...no taste don't know how to cook meat. Ordered tripas and where disgusting...then I ordered a gordita they only put a spoon of meat and no cheese or salsa...very disappointed with the spot! All reviews of the taco shop are false...panaderia is the only good thing! Don't eat at the taco shop trust me. Or just order a taco to try it. Don't waste money like I did. read more

Oh my goodness!! Best little hole in the wall!! I grew up on homemade Mexican food and am incredibly picky about it, but damn did they deliver!! I almost don't want to leave a review so that it won't be busy, but they deserve it! First time we went we were looking for breakfast burritos, I got chorizo the bf got bacon. Let me just say these things are HUGE about the size of my forearm and packed with deliciousness! Second time, (around 11) bf got the chorizo breakfast burrito (I converted him) and I decided to get a trio of tacos to try their meats: carne asada, chili verde and pastor. Carne asada and pastor were soooooo good and the chili verde was tender but I wish it had more flavor. TL;DR fricken delicious and will go again and again! read more

Good size breakfast burrito and easy location. I will try for lunch soon. The people ice age as under $9 so not bad but not great.

Sloppy burrito. I wouldn't recommend it. Tossed my burrito away 2/10. I would give it at 1 but give it a 2 for effort

THEY DONT CARE. When I first began coming here, I thought this place was my answer to inexpensive daily nutrition especially since they had an open salsa bar. I would come in at different times of the day. The first "bad" bean, cheese and rice burrito I received was towards the end of the day (it tasted like it had began decomposing.) I let it pass. The second problem was when I ordered the fajita plate, it was so salty it was inedible. This time I complained to multiple employees and even asked to speak to the owner. She was there but was counting receipts so she was too busy. One employee basically explained they can't please everybody. BASICALLY, THEY DONT CARE. SO I DONT EITHER. read more
