AMAZING food, handmade tortillas to order, large portions, incredible service. Very limited seating, no bathroom or water, but let me tell you, pull up a stool to the counter and let the flavors wash over you!! Pay attention to the signs with specials on them, some things are not on the menu. Family owned joint cranking out love and flavor, that’s about it!

The food was just like I remembered in Mexico. The presentation, ingredients, and freshness is evident the moment you take a bite. I will be ordering tacos from this spot every time. This is a gem of a spot. 5 star

Hidden Gem Alert!

This little hole-in-the-wall mini supermarket completely blew me away. Tucked away and easy to miss—but don’t! Inside is a small but mighty kitchen serving up some of the most delicious food I’ve had in a while. You order in the supermarket(register), can sit and eat, but it’s mostly to-go style.

I ordered tacos, a quesabirria, and chilaquiles, and everything was 10/10. Super fresh, flavorful, and just hit the spot. The salsas? Fire. Each bite tasted homemade with love.

Special shoutout to the young man at the register—he was incredibly helpful and kind, really went above and beyond to make sure my order was perfect. That level of service makes all the difference.

They also have a fully stocked mini market inside, so you can grab snacks, drinks, or essentials while you wait on your food. Overall, just a great vibe and even better food. Will definitely be back—and bringing people with me next time!

Muchas gracias por todo!

I have only had the quesadillas here, but that is enough for me to keep coming back. Have yet to find this type of quesadilla at any other restaurant. It’s a bit on the greasier side so you have to eat it while it’s fresh to truly enjoy it. I also really like the sauces they come with. The cook is always kind and attentive, other workers not so much. I still recommend everyone give it a try.

Excellent food. The folks working there are helpful and welcoming. They answered our questions and made great recommendations! Very small dining area with counter seating only.

This place is a gem for authentic tacos.

Inside a little latin grocery store. That’s how you know they’re real.

Lots of options, with lots of different fillings. Natural juices that’s basically 2L bottle. (It’s not, but you get it)

I had the quesabirria that’s done on the weekends, and one taco and a fermented pineapple with spices juice.

The places is a little cramped and you will get a little messy, but it’s immediately cleaned after you leave, so no worries. Or you can just do take out.

This is authentic Mexican food. Kitchen staff is very friendly and service is quick. I had the tacos de Tripa, Pastor and Asada. I really liked them very much. The pastor reminds me of King Taco in East L.A. pastor. My wife had a Huarache de Pastor and its was delicious and humongous. She only finished half of it. They have a variety of Mexican sodas to choose from. Some people talk about the cashier not being too polite to customers but let me tell you that she is not a rude person, she’s just a very straightforward person. Overall my experience was great. I will descome back for more tacos de Tripa and Huaraches de Pastor.

I was invited to check out a behind-the-scenes tour of the kitchen at El Rinconcito Chilango, and let me tell you, this place is doing things right. You start by ordering at the counter inside Rodriguez Supermarket. That’s where I met Alex, who walked me through the menu, answered all my questions, and helped make sure my order was exactly how I wanted it. I threw a little Spanglish at him, and he didn’t flinch. Just smiled, helped me out, and made the whole process smooth.

Once your order’s in, head to the room next door where the taqueria lives. There’s limited counter seating, so you might need to wait or take your food to go. While you’re at it, browse the market for some unique Spanish groceries. There’s a full butcher counter in the back too if you want to bring home something to cook later.

When I visited, it was packed. I’m talking full-on, no-empty-stool energy. And even with the crowd, Alex stayed patient and welcoming. The kind of service that sticks with you.

I went with the fried chicken cutlet torta with beans, avocado, Oaxaca cheese, lettuce, and mayo. I skipped the pineapple and tomato because I like my tortas focused. This sandwich came out looking like it could bench press most sandwiches in town. Hot, crispy chicken layered between toasted, soft bolillo with just the right amount of texture and flavor. It was a four-napkin situation and completely worth it.

Behind the scenes: I got to step inside the kitchen and watch Marco do his thing. He’s the man behind the grill and works with the kind of focus that makes you stop and just appreciate the craft. Tortillas are pressed to order. Meat is grilled to order. Every dish is built from scratch with speed and intention. If you see Marco, tell him Evan the Charlotte Foodie Guy sent you. He’ll probably smile and keep moving, but he’ll know you’re in good hands.

Did I try the salsas? No. I like being able to feel my face. But they’re all made in-house and come in little plastic pouches that look like hot sauce Capri Suns. Not resealable, so once you commit, you’re in.

Everything is cooked to order, so expect a bit of a wait. But this is the kind of food that makes you rethink settling for fast food.

If you go on a Sunday, don’t miss the chilaquiles. They’re only available once a week and absolutely worth it.

Parking is free, but can be a bit hectic. Feels like part of the experience.

El Rinconcito Chilango is serving up authentic Mexico City flavors with heart. The food speaks for itself, and the people behind it are just as solid. Ask for Alex when you order. He’ll take care of you.

GEM!!!!!! Finally, I decided to try this place put after my sister kept raving about it. Went on a Wednesday during lunch hours. It was fairly empty when I arrived, BUT as soon as I placed my order, though, everyone started arriving. You enter through the supermarket portion, and you actually order at the cashier in the store portion instead of the actual taqueria. Now I will say, this is a little pricey, but honestly, what isn’t expensive at this point. I ordered a Carne Asada quesadilla ($8), 2 Cecina tacos ($3 each), and then a pineapple agua Fresca (8). If you order specialty tacos (Celina, tripa, etc), you HAVE to order 2 tacos. Not just one, which I thought was weird and hated it, but oh well. I will say, though, the food makes up for the price and any kinks this place may have! It was all so delicious!!!!! Omg it def hit my craving. It was all very well marinated, and the quesadilla was huge! Definitely great portions, and they don’t skimp you on meat at all. This is definitely a hole in the wall place, but I definitely recommend it. Located off East Blvd and plenty of parking out front.
