This restaurant was truly a definition of a hidden gem. My wife and I went here at the recommendation of our children. So glad we did. The food is outstanding, the service was excellent and the decor was so authentic. We will be back.

Very large establishment, sister restaurant to cantina Mexicana located in new dorp, Offers a large menu with an array of items to choose from , as well a full bar with top shelf liquors . The place was relatively quite. Everything was a very hot and served freshed , and well Seasoned .

Ground beef tacos
Rosanne O.

Fresh and fast service. Delicious chicken and shrimp empanadas. Diablo Rojo Burrito was great. Ground beef tacos were good, too. The staff was friendly and gave great service. Bright and airy dining room with a bar area looks very clean. I will definitely be back. They have $11 lunch specials. I believe this is the best Mexican option in the Great Kills area.

Rinconcito Paisa - This was pretty pricey just for chips and guac. $16 plus tax.

I was driving down Forest Avenue at dinnertime, and I saw a big sign that said "Colombian food!" I…read morelove Colombian food, so I stopped. Parking can be tricky, I parked halfway down the side street in front of the city park. The place was clean and everybody was friendly. I liked the atmosphere of the restaurant. It kind of reminded me of a Cantina. Definitely a Latin vibe. The menu was on an iPad, and it was in Spanish, but just by knowing a few words and by the pictures, I knew what I wanted to order. I could've also used the Google translator on my phone, if I wanted to. I ordered the bandeja mixta. Grilled steak, grilled chicken, sausage, blood sausage, rice, beans and sofrito covered potatoes. The food came quickly, and it was delicious. Both the steak and the chicken were tender and had so much flavor. I loved the taste of the Sofrito covered potatoes. The potatoes were just the right texture, and the Sofrito was creamy and delicious. A little bit of the rice, I mixed in with the beans, And it made for a wonderful rice and beans dish. It was definitely a lot of food. I made it through the chicken, steak, the potatoes, and a little bit of rice and beans, and I was stuffed. I took the rest home for later, and it all reheated very well. The sausage was delicious, especially the blood sausage. Yes, it's an acquired taste but I absolutely love blood sausage. The flavor is deep and rich. For all that I got, especially since it was two meals, the price was very reasonable. I would stop back by the next time. I'm on the island. Thank you!

It has been way too long since I've been here…read more Dinner was a combo of plantains, rice, and side salad, featuring a grilled pork loin. Everything was seasoned well and I can't rave enough about the plantains. Secretly, I wish I had ordered another side of plantains with guacamole l, but that's for another time. I came here with two other friends, we were in and out in about an hour. The service was quick and we found the staff members to be very nice!
