I came here for a lunch date with my wife who works in the area. The service was good, even tho I dnt speak Spanish, my wife knows a little something (lol). The food was good. I ordered Piccadillo, Moros y Cristianos and Sweet Plantain. My wife had the Lechon Asado, Moros y Cristianos and Sweet Plaintains. If your ever in the area, I would recommend this restaurant😀

The live music sets a good vibe as soon as you enter El Rinconcito. The variety of the menu offers delicious Puerto Rican and Cuban dishes. My favorite alcapurrias, Mofongo and Red Beans in all of Florida! On our 2nd visit we also tried their Cuban food and loved both their Vaca Frita de Pollo and Pollo en salsa Enchilada with Tostones de Plátano, Rice and Black Beans! We met one of the founders, Rosa and we loved her sweet and welcoming personality! Their staff is friendly and very accommodating! We look forward to our next visit!

I highly recommend this restaurant. I found it via google map search. I'm so glad I did. From the time you walk in, they greet you and make you feel at home. You are seating down and cold water and hot bread is already coming. My wife and I, loved our choices of authentic Puertorrican food. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this restaurant. 10 🌟 🤩 See before and after photos. I killed it.

I made the mistake (?) of ordering the amazing “Chuleta Kan Kan” while dining alone. This beast of a pork chop masterpiece was amazingly delicious—no matter where I cut into it. Be prepared to speak some Spanish, or just try! Use your translation app—give it some effort. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even though they probably laughed at me and my order later. As a bonus, it was someone’s birthday, and I witnessed some seriously native-level guiro technique—by a waitress who seemed to be a new hire. It was a great joy to experience genuine food and culture simultaneously.
