Genuine Mexican, service left a lot to be desired, they threw us in a corner and ignored us, we had to go to bar ourselves to order more drinks, the food arrived and we had No cutlery, so up we got again. ordered tacos and you choose the protein, so I asked for pescado (from my name you can guess I speak Spanish) and they sent out Asado (beef). They replaced and the fish was great, bit more attention to service and its a winner

I’m from East Texas and often miss good Mexican food, but I have found my place! I personally enjoy their queso and enchiladas. Rincon has a great happy hour, and the prices are good. The portions are a nice size and I never leave hungry. The staff are always super friendly. I recommend this to anyone craving some good authentic Mexican food!!

Family a party of 7 was seated right away then provided with our drinks and chips with salsa. We were given time to make our choices and the food came out hot and delish. The waiter made sure our drinks were filled and everything was fine. A great time was had by all.

Had a great brunch here. The wife had huevos rancheros and I had the vegetarian burrito, both were great.

This restaurant serves up large portions of authentic Mexican dishes, and we enjoyed everything we purchased. Prices are very reasonable too. The spicy salsa we requested was delicious, one of the best we’ve had in the area. Service was good, and our friendly waiter occasionally checked on us to fill waters and make sure our food met expectations. Where I had to knock a combined star are 2 things, the air conditioner didn’t work (maybe doesn’t even exist since they have wall-mounted fans) and the restaurant was noticeably dirty in certain places. We had to eat and sweat on a 90-degree day, so although the food was excellent the heat in the restaurant was terribly distracting. They had to open exterior doors for ventilation so flies were everywhere and swatting them away from our food became a chore we didn’t enjoy. The filth we saw were in the woman’s washroom and on the wall-mounted fans which had caked on dirt everywhere. We were worried the aged caked-on dirt would drop into our meals. We’ll go back, but only for take-out next time.

I don’t know why I have never stopped before. I was actually craving Chinese food when I passed it up. I had time on my hands so I decided I wanted to try it. I circled the block to give it a try and was sooo glad I did.

The food was okay but their “happy hour” deal was very deceptive. No one told us that the happy hour was 2 for 1 instead of half off, and their menus and waiters very intentionally make no mention of this fact. Our waitress even asked if I wanted a second margarita, without mentioning that I had already paid for it. So I was pretty surprised when I got the bill and was charged full price for the one I bought, but the bill listed two drinks. I spoke to the manager and asked if he could just give me half off for one, and he refused. I wouldn’t be giving them 1 star except that they were intentionally deceptive about their drink prices, and I won’t be going back here. Almost every alcohol serving business does half off drinks, if your policy is different then you should be up-front about it. Also the service was pretty lackluster.
