The food is below average, no taste or at times it was salty. Their service can definitely improve. They have zero WiFi for customers, they claim that someone tried to hack into their tablets and that's why they do not offer Wi-Fi. They have another restaurant approximately 3 miles west but they have Wi-Fi for customers. The parents in the restaurant is like if you walked into a time capsule, the men's bathroom has wallpaper and it's falling off and it looks nasty. And it is a shame because that restaurant is in the perfect area to to serve the community and be extremely successful I strongly recommend that the owners may changes within their staff specifically the manager or have them retrained, including the Manager. Unfortunately, until they make a change and everything improves, I can not recommend this Resturant. read more

Great portions. Chicken overseasoned with garlic powder. Black beans overseasoned with cumin.

I've been coming here every Sunday and sometimes on Saturday for a loooong time. My dad loves this place, so we have our weekend lunches here. Today I ordered, for the first time ever, the half chicken criollo. With white rice (cause I thought criollo meant saucy) and steamed veggies. Well! There was no sauce. But the chicken (2 full leg thigh quarters!) were baked/ roasted to perfection. The skin was golden and crispy and the meat was moist and delicious. Oh my! This is def my new fave. My other faves, are the bandeja paisa (a bounty of meats, rice beans fried egg omg). The mazas de puerco fritas (trust me, you will have leftovers) are soooo good! The Chicken empanizado. And --- drum rollllll---- the sopa de res ( beef and veg soup). This is def the best meal at this restaurant. It comes with a huge bowl of soup with large chunks of meltinyourmouth beef, root veggies, zucchini, corn cobs, etc, rice (on the side) and garlic bread (on the side). The restaurant decor/atmosphere is what is expected for a middle of the road latin restaurant, the service is spotty but friendly, the prices are a little higher than you'de expect. I recommend the delicious fresh and crispy salad and the steamed veggies as your side dishes. The tostones are hit or miss: sometimes delicious and sometimes not so much. For the quality and quantity of food and the service, this restaurant beats both La Carreta and Isla Canaria, which are comparable eateries. This is a review for the bird road and 104 location ( there are many other of these at other locations but for me this one is best). read more

Food is ok. Not my type of restaurant not worth repeating again. Needs improvement. The steak isn't that good it's too rough.

Every time we go we are always glad we went. Great home style, quality and abundant food. And if you haven't tried their croquetas it's a must! Service and cleanliness are also great! This is our go-to neighborhood spot. read more

The food and service are exceptional at this Rinconcito. The ambiance is also good and clean. Kevin took care of us quite frankly first rate. The food came out fast, hot and picture perfect. The second time we came Silvia took care of us. Also exceptionally Professional fast and friendly. My 10 year old daughter wanted me to mention that the milkshakes and food are spectacular. How is that for a recommendation? It's truly worth your experience. Take out is also fantastic! read more

We are a busy family so their cantina fits into our lives. Always on time and a smile at the window for pick up.

terrible experience. La comida era vieja , no estaba nada buena para el precio y me provocó un dolor estomacal agudo toda la noche

El Rinconcito Latino is one of big Cuban cuisine chains in Miami, my parents swear by this place. This past weekend we decided to order delivery to our home from their Bird Road location. We ordered the classic palomilla steak with white rice, plantain chips with garlic sauce, fried sweet plantains and chicken tenders for the kids. The portions for the price you pay is one of main positive you get a lot of food to share especially a family our size. The flavors is where it lacking a bit the palomilla steak was a little bland and same for the chicken tenders. The plantain chips were good and garlic dipping sauce was a home run! When it comes to Cuban food I am still loyal to Harry's. read more

This restaurant has several locations around Miami and we happen to visit the one closest to us. The food was good and the service very friendly. There are some Cuban restaurants where you don't feel like a customer; instead you feel like a family member. You're never rushed and they constantly check on you to make sure you're doing okay. The servers were very sweet and the food hot and delicious. It was the lead up week to Christmas so they were dealing with tons of carry out orders but that didn't seem to distract the staff from providing great service. I had the chicken steak with rice and black beans - Yum! read more

This Rinconcito Latino was quite the place to go and eat for us every week! They sold the restaurant and the food was pretty bad! We've been there a couple of times and the food has gotten even worse! The service is not the same either as they used to be. I would not go there anymore. Good luck. read more

We love El Rinconcito Latino. We probably order from this place at least once a week. Everything we've ever had is delicious. We have never been disappointed with our food at this restaurant. We don't go into the location often because it's so comfortable to eat at home and they make it super convenient. When you call to place the order the staff is always very polite and helpful. The food always arrives in great condition, it must have to do with how fast they deliver. And the portions are huge If you're in the areas and are craving Cuban food don't hesitate to stop at this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

I came here with two of my friends. One was having issues with her stomach so decided to drop and get some chicken soup and some Malaga. My other friend got the breast chicken a plancha with a lettuce and fried plantations. I got a small chicken soup and the fufu with the pork chunks it comes together. We all enjoying our meals the food was good. One of my friends omg look . We were sitting in a booth and big roach came out and we scream and got out of our chairs. I had a panic attack I am scare of them. I am here thinking omg the kitchen area. So the manager came and gave us a discount. This place is nasty. Never again!! read more

Went to restaurant to order food and try it out, but saw that they had all the meat thawing outside in a trash can!! Went over to in inspect and it was hot water they were in while sitting in the baking sun. Did research and found they have multiple health violations. Please be careful!! Do not eat here! read more

Don't eat here!!! They have had so many health & safety violations. Like defrosting meat in trash cans outside in the alley. Gross.

Food was okay. Vacafrita de pollo over seasoned. Wait staff was very nice and friendly. Deceptive gratuity practice, include 20% automatic and then on handheld suggest another 18 or 20 percent. Not even high end restaurants do this read more

SW 40 st. I ordered 2 arroz imperial for lunch for pick up. When eating I noticed there was only one bite of chicken. It was rice and ham and cheese...no chicken but one bite. I called and let them know I would go after work to return the food. When I went after work, I had eaten 1/2 of one order and was returning the full second order. The manager Jose said since since I ate half of one order he could not refund that order. Never mind apologizing that it did not have chicken. MIND YOU, I did not get what I ordered because I did not order rice with HAM. Very insensitive to the customer this manager Jose (so he says). Note, I use to be a customer that ordered 3 times a week from here. Until last year that this same thing happened to me and I stop ordering. I tried again today, but nothing has changed. THIS RESTAURANT will fail with this Terrible customer service and arroz imperial with no chicken and treating customer like a criminal trying to take advantage of the resturant by asking for a refund for the terrible food. Thankfully, I do not need the money financially, and can live with only one refund. But, the restaurant has lost a regular customer of 3 times a week. They did not serve the dish they are selling... A total made up version of arroz imperial that has rice and ham and cheese and only one bite of chicken... IT is ridiculous! Teach your cook to make the dish that is advertised not some made up ridiculous version. and teach your manager to own the mistakes made by the restaurant. read more

I usually don't write too many reviews but today I had to. This place use to be a lot better. The quality of the food has been spiraling down while the prices go up. Today we ordered 2 large chicken soups and 2 orders of vaca frita. The soup was not bad, usually pretty consistent, however the vaca frita was extremely greasy, overcooked and the bunch of onions they throw in there to make up for the lack of beef smelled rancid. 2 orders of vaca frita at $18.50 each and getting extremely greasy, overcooked (to a crisp) beef and rancid onions is not cool. This place really needs to get their act together. It used to be a pretty solid Cuban food but unfortunately it no longer is. This isn't the first time we've experienced bad food here but today was the straw that broke the camel's back. If it wasn't that my wife was craving chicken soup I probably wouldn't have gone. I kinda feel bad for the waiters because they are pretty nice. Would not recommend. So many other options just a little further away. read more

First time at this place and I have to admit I was very impressed. The place was clean and nice, service was courteous and amicable, food was actually delicious, typical Cuban food but it felt different. Very nice option if you are around and hungry because they do serve a lot. Good job, I enjoyed my time there. read more

Excellent choice for your Cuban fix, although they have tid-bits of other Latin cuisine like the bandeja paisa(Colombian). My personal favorite is the Cordero(lamb) on Saturdays. You get two legs for like $12, the meat falls off of the bone, and the sauce is delicious!! read more

this place thaws meat outside in the back in large trash cans! flys all over! beware and never eat here! they have been closed many times!

Hello, taking time for this review because I always go to this restaurant because is very close to my house and after work is convenient for me , me and my husband ordered but his food was to go, he opened his lunch today the food smelled so bad so we called and spoke to the supervisor. He was no help at all, he said themat we should've told him last night, I ate the same rice but I put almost a whole lemon in my rice, I did taste weird but thought it was the amount of lemon read more

The food here is relatively good. However, the servers at the window, which are usually about three of them, are incredibly slow and tend to ignore the patrons waiting for quite a bit (even though they are not busy) before assisting and asking for their order. read more

This place is your basic cheap Latin food for a decent price. The service is the expected latin service which usually means slow and they're busier with the chisme (gossip) amongst themselves to remember to check on their tables. $20 here will feed more than one usually where other chain places you'll drop more than that even without that blooming onion. This last visit was bot at all what i expected. Ordered the churrasco medium for a change. What could go wrong? From the moment it arrived at the table i could smell this foul odor wafting in with it. Im usually pretty congested so for ME to smell something it has to be really noticeable. Why a server, who could obviously smell the stench of rancid grease, delivers the food regardless, is completely insane. The Churrasco was cooked totally well done. why bother?! I was starving and figured id just try it rather than to attempt to send anything back. Quarter of the way through i was already feeling nauseous. I ended up eating the rice and beans and the plantains that were edible. When the server finally managed to pull herself away from the gossip behind the register to see if i needed anything. I told her that the steak was basically cooked in rancid grease and inedible and asked her if she couldn't smell it when she brought it out. After staring at me for an awkward few, she grabbed what she could and cleared the table. She then came back with the check; dropping it off and walking off like nothing had just happened. I would have asked to speak to someone but by then i felt like the baby was crowning and if i didn't leave right then and there it was bout to get REAL (ugly!). The lack of consistency here is disappointing. When they're on the ball it's great. When they're not on the ball they knock that way into the cheap seats. read more

El servicio es pésimo pedí pan jamás me lo trajeron la comida no tiene sabor no recomiendo este restaurant aún cuando tengan hambre

First time trying this place. I got a breakfast to go and to be honest it's so disappointing I just threw it away. The fries were soggy and not cooked through. The Cuban toast was soggy as well. It's called toast for a reason. Worst breakfast ever. Want a good Cuban breakfast try la carreta, Islas Canarias, Versailles or even Caribe. Save your money and anger. read more

This is not good food. Mariquitas smelled of rancid grease. Mojo? Nope. The dipping sauces provided were some sort of cilantro mayo nightmare and an orange goopy thing that despite trying 2-3 bites of, we still couldn't figure out wtf was in it. My mom's palomilla was pleasing to her. The tostones on her plate looked refried. I ordered the vaca frita...totally soggy and swimming in grease. My tostones were kinda soft and on the ripe side. My french fries were gross. My brother's Cuban sandwich was okay... because it's kinda hard to mess up a sandwich. Guess my cats will have leftovers for a couple of days. read more
