Sorry, I always eat before taking pictures. But, I will say this....Ive been eating here for over 5 years since I live around the corner from here. Ladies there are ALWAYS nice and this has become a regular spot for us. From burritos, tacos, pozole on the weekends and a variety of other stuff, you can't go wrong. Don't feel like eating meat? Have the crunchy potato tacos, delicious and worth it! read more

Me and my friend got garne asada fries and nachos vegetarian. The food came with red and green salsa which was nice to put on top to give a bit of heat. We sat inside and ate which was nice to escape the drizzle but was still chilly. Fries were good but thought the nachos would get a bit more veggies for vegetarian. All in all good and would come back to try other options. read more

Their shrimp tacos are personally the best. I haven't ever tried better ones elsewhere. I have gotten so many friends onto them too! You have to give them a try. I have tried their flautas and enchiladas but I still prefer their shrimp tacos over anything else. Recommended! read more

El Rinconcito - Shrimp tacos - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Looks like a hole in the wall and kind of is but they've got good tacos at reasonable prices. If you live in the area or happen to be nearby and are looking to satisfy that taco craving before the trucks and stands open up, this is a great choice. Be prepared to speak at least some Spanish to complete your order. read more

These are the homies in the neighborhood. Fair ass prices and delicious authentic Mexican food. They have a chill sit down area you can have lunch at. Some would call this in a wall but I call it down to earth and not pretentious. I've had a lot of things from here so far but the tacos and burritos are my favorite. Also the chorizo quesadillas mmmmm.. I think I need to have some enchiladas tomorrow. read more

Doesn't look like much when you walk pass but they are bomb and the prices are great. The food was supper hot and fresh . I got 3 grilled fish tacos which was $8.75 and a Hibiscus drink which was $2. I'm literally sitting in my car eating because I couldn't wait to try it. I rate this a 9/10 read more

Yo. Just went there for the first time since moving in the neighborhood new favorite Mexican spot! Had the chorizo burrito it was delicious!!! Thank you Elena! You just made a new loyal client xx read more

Avoid this place if you can. The food is of very low quality and its not the most pleasant looking either. I gave it a try and ordered 2 chicken burritos and 1 steak burrito. The burritos were full of rice and beans it seemed like i ordered a vegetarian burrito. The steak is not well marked (grilled) it has a grayish look to it the burritos in general were very poorly made and no flavor at all. Will not be going back i can only picture drunks eating here. Your better of eating a El Patron food truck, Marielas,El Zarape on Melrose or Linos. read more

If there were a metric of delicious authenticness per square foot of a restaurant, this tiny almost literal hole in wall would be the absolute winner. Nestled at a table beside the sign promoting the homemade pozole and with my area filled with the necessities of looking for both a new apartment and a new job in the middle of a Saturday afternoon, my carne asada plate accompanied with hot tortillas and a perfect salsa verde was all I could have dreamed of. It was so much better than the cover letter I attempted to draft been bite after delicious bite of my lunch. ¡Que sabrosa! read more

What an epic hole in the wall. Its inexpensive with wonderful customer service. I got the super nachos with steak which was full of flavor as well as avocado, beans, and melty cheese.

My friends and I came here after seeing the Titanic exhibition. We weren't familiar with any restaurants in the immediate area, so we looked on yelp and after narrowing down to 3 choices, we picked El Rinconcito because the menu looked great and we all like Mexican. It doesn't look like much, just a tiny hole in the wall with a little outdoor seating. But the food was AMAZING, one of the best Mexican meals I've ever eaten. And the lady working there (sadly I forgot her name) was so friendly and sweet. I believe she owns this little stand and works there all the time. She was the only one there when we came; she took our orders, she cooked, cleaned, and served. We even came in close to closing time and she was still so gracious and happy to serve us. read more

The most authentic garnachas in the city The best! God bless this place !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Wasn't bad but I wouldn't go back. Less flavorful than the taco shops I'm used to. Maybe just a bit more seasoning would push it over the top. Had a cool location though. read more

I can't afford a laundry machine so I come to the laundromat next door and while I was waiting for my various cat shirts to dry, I decided to get some food at El Rinconcito. HOLY COW. Blown away. Some of the best tacos I've had in LA. Delicious meats and a better atmosphere than most taco trucks but still getting taco truck prices. Tacos range between $1.25-$1.50. I love there's actually an area to sit down and enjoy your meal. BONUS: the hot sauce is VERY hot. Have an extra roll of toilet paper ready. read more

This place is amazing. The nachos the burritos. Everything!! I love the pastor. Probably the best in town. You must check this place out. The owner Elena is super nice and always makes sure consistency and quality plays a role in her little hideaway style gem found in Ktown. read more

I just love this place. I always order their Asada Burrito and Pastor Burrito here, and they have never disappoint me at all! When I crave for burritos, I always come here to taste their classic burritos! Stop by here. Strongly recommend. read more

This is my neighborhood taco stand. I usually visit once a week, but sometimes a little more. Their vegetarian burrito is a simple work of art. I don't have to add much to that. I pass two other places to get to them, and have altogether given up trying to make my own. Why bother? It's a five minute walk to Burrito Goodness, and I'm 100% satisfied every time. But this review is about my most recent visit. As we're in the days of this lockdown, I'm not necessarily taking that five minute walk quite as often. But yesterday I did, and it was one of the most welcome, simple pleasures that I've really missed. I'm so glad they were there, open when my stomach called for it, and they satisfied, as always. Thanks for being there, my neighborhood favorite. read more

I've never been disappointed here. consistently delicious food made with love. y salsa roja en fuego!! read more

This is a perfect spot for delicious Mexican food. Handwritten menu, stools outside or small tables inside, twinkly lights strung around it that light it up at night. I get a vegetarian burrito, no cheese. Filled to the brim with avocado, rice, and beans, and the salsa is the best. Elena, the proprietor, is warm and always happy to see you. read more

Came here because I didn't bring lunch to work customer service was excellent. I ordered 3 tacos de asada. Great portions I just wish the meat had a little more flavor. Overall it was good. The red sauce was fire which I liked. read more

Damn fine tacos, tortas, burritos and quesadillas. The woman who runs and owns it as one of the kindest, hardest working people you will ever meet. This place is also very cheap and a pillar of the community. read more

Ordered this with doordash a bit ago, this is probably the worst mexican food I've ever had. Bland, cold, the rice was disgusting, and the chicken flautas were absolutely terrible. No flavor, basically inedible. We also ordered a torta and it said it had avocado in it. There was only one penny sized chunk of avocado (if that) in the bottom corner of the torta. Never ordering again! read more

The owners are so sweet and always greet me with a smile. I've tried a lot of things here but their carne asada burritos are my favorite. The meat has flavor, price is affordable and they are quick. Places like these are what make me appreciate LA. read more

Amazing tacos and burritos. Generous with their portions and their price is . Street taco price and taste but at a reputable location. No food poisoning here. read more

Looked like one of those hidden secret, hole in the wall joints.. and there is an expectation that comes along with that such as great food and customer service and I unfortunately didn't get either of those. Below average, grumpy customer service, and a painfully average breakfast burrito.. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to drive far to Fairfax for Cofax or Atwater for a good breakfast burrito but I guess I will until something of similar quality pops up in my neighborhood. read more
