Taqueria Rincon Alteño has been a staple for us for over 10 years, and that alone says a lot. Through all that time, the quality has never changed—same comforting flavors, same hearty portions, same consistency that keeps us coming back.

That said, there’s a right way to order here, and it makes a huge difference.

Do yourself a favor and order the chimichanga instead of the regular super burrito.
The chimichanga is where this place really shines. The tortilla is grilled to absolute perfection—crispy on the outside, warm and structured on the inside, never soggy or greasy. It holds everything together and adds that extra layer of flavor and texture that elevates the entire meal.

We’ve had the super burrito plenty of times over the years, and while the ingredients are always solid—fresh, filling, and flavorful—the standard tortilla just doesn’t showcase the fillings the same way once it’s wrapped and sitting. The chimichanga completely fixes that.

Adding something personal here: my wife is pregnant, so food timing, comfort, and quality matter even more than usual. When you’ve been coming to a place for over a decade, you trust it—and this meal delivered that familiar, satisfying comfort we were hoping for.

The sauces are flavorful, the fillings are generous, and the consistency over the years is what truly sets this place apart. It’s rare to find a spot that doesn’t cut corners over time, and Rincon Alteño hasn’t.

Final tip:
Longtime customer here.
Skip the regular super burrito.
Get the chimichanga.

I got me a carne asada super burrito which could have used a little more meat instead of so much rice and beans with a ton of sour cream also some more flavor for the meat. A got a cup of posole. Had to add some salt and tapatio to step up the flavor. I tried out one lengua taco which was pretty good after I added the spicy red salsa. My wife had her a veggie tostada bowl which she loved. For me overall everything was ok. I would go back to try a few other things. Last but not least. Customer service was great from the girl behind the counter. The place has a pretty good atmosphere with outside tables too.

This was my first time trying this place, and I can confidently say the positive reviews are well-deserved. The restaurant was exceptionally clean—staff were actively tidying even though everything already looked spotless.

I ordered the chicken chimichanga, which was absolutely delicious. The chicken was flavorful and well-seasoned, and the portion size was very good as well. My partner had the crispy chicken tacos, which were also excellent—the chicken was tasty, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The salsa at the salsa bar stood out.

Overall, a great experience. We’ll definitely be coming back.

My family and I had breakfast at this joint this morning. Cashier was very friendly. We found plenty of parking. They have an accessible ramp for people with wheelchairs, so that’s good. The food was honestly average and not what we expected based on the reviews. We got a Pastor Super Burrito, Pastor Super Nachos and Chicken Super Nachos. They offer chips at an additional price and they have a free salsa bar. The green salsa was good, but we did not like the rest of the salsas. I didn’t like the fact they charge you an additional fee to get chips when most restaurants include the chips on the cost of the food they serve. I feel like you are nickel-and-dimeing people when you do that.

We LOVE this place. I’d say we eat here at least 2x a week. My personal favorite is the pollo plate with whole beans. Just AMAZING!! My husband Dana loves getting a chicken tostada or a chorizo taco. Sometimes, we get their crispy tacos on Wednesdays because you can’t beat the deal! Order extra crispy–to die for!! Love the staff working here–they are friendly, courteous, funny, and so helpful! This is a gem in North Natomas. Highly recommend!

The menudo was okay, the enchiladas were good, and everything was fine. I think the worst part about this experience is I felt like I was eating at a gas station. If I’m paying 20 for a plate, I want more than plastic plates, plastic forks, and plastic salsa holders. I understand why restaurants do it. It just communicates they don’t care about our health or how their presentation looks. Styrofoam for beans and rice? Come on.
