They are doing an enormous takeout business as well. They bring over what is definitely homemade chips and a very heavy on the cilantro salsa, but it was excellent. More on the watery side restaurant style. We ordered the medium sized guacamole, which was huge. I can't imagine what the large looks like. My own guac I would have had diced tomato and some jalapeño in there, but it was still super fresh and delicious. We both ordered street tacos. They're on white corn tortillas. Very simple, squeeze lime on there, you got diced onion and cilantro. It was excellent and my date said hers were the al Pastor and she liked hers as well. I would've liked a more intimate dining setting, but I highly recommend this place if you want authentic delicious Mexican food and it was reasonable But if you've got four or more, I would definitely recommend a reservation on the weekends even if you have 2 maybe. No seafood enchiladas which was I guess was in line with their menu. Oh, and also they give you like a grilled cactus blade. I don't know what else to call it. It was delicious.

Every other Mexican restaurant in Manahawkin refries black beans. Not Rinconcito! Finally! I can get a bean and cheese burrito with the best, refined pinto beans. Also, their chips are the best in town. Why??? Because they make their own! If only the other Mexican restaurants would do the same- enough of the pre-made chips. The staff is friendly and accommodating too. Highly recommend Rinconcito!

Lightest grease free empanadas I've had in a long time. Absolutely delicious. We ordered guac and it comes in a huge tub for a very low price so get on that one too. Burritos and rice beans for entrees. We went with chorizo and al pastor burritos that were massive and tasty. We could have split one but I'm down for having the other half for lunch the next day. Maybe they can do a half chorizo half al pastor burrito next round and blaze trails. Pictures speak for themselves. Also very nice people work here so that's a huge bonus.

Went shopping at Farias across the street while we waited for the food- ordered fries, a lobster roll, and two tacos (~$50) that were ready within 10 minutes!

Bonus points kickin coleslaw & juicy pickles that come with the meals. Looking forward to my next dining experience there
