    Kansas City has been a fun place to visit once in awhile especially to see a concert. We happened…read moreto be staying near by this cafe and wanted to check it out. We loved the little set up with a great amount of seating, a clean bathroom, and outlets for people who want to study or get some work done. We were a little hungry and got the empanadas and both tried the Yerba mate. We've never had the traditional yerba mate and were excited we could try it here. Once our order was ready one of the employees was happy to explain to us how to properly drink the yerba mate. She was patient, kind, and professional the whole time. There's definitely a trick to drinking it without getting the tea leaves through the straw. As we enjoyed our snack and drink we could tell the caffeine kicks in a little later. So, if you're up to trying traditional yerba mate, be aware that you'll get a gradual burst of energy a little later. I personally loved the decor and the atmosphere here. They had little knick knacks you could purchase, a small refrigerator with items to take with you as well. I got a couple of key chains for my sister and myself and my boyfriend and I have already noted that we want to come back here the next time we're in Kansas City!

    I love the vibe in this shop! It's so quant. Even though the shop is small their coffee is BOMB!…read more They have the best MATCHA + HORCHATA latte

    Although I wanted to review as soon as I left, I had to let Donna have the first review for finding…read morethis gem and adding it to Yelp. I was absolutely blown away. It is a divey little place that is far from divey when it comes to the food. Mexican seafood has been on my must try list and I may never need to go anywhere else. The fish is cooked perfectly. Flaky yet moist and the two options I tried were full of flavor. A plate of fish would satisfy me. The meals come with a nice creamy, minimal potato salad that I thought was perfect. Well cooked potatoes with just a touch of bite. The rice is a good Mexican rice. Nice flavor, I would bet cooked in broth. The salad is simple. The simpleness of the sides really highlight the fish and make them the perfect companions. A basket of crackers and hard tortillas are served as you sit down. I pretty much ignore them, but decided to try a tortilla before and my meal. Alone, a nice crunch shell, with a little fish on it, both are elevated to an incredible level. This is a must try. The restaurant is small. The booths are a little padding deficient. Service is great and the food is some of the best in the city!

    Everything. Most authentic you'll find pretty much anywhere close unless you're in California. And…read moreeven then this place rivals some of the best places I've tried back home in California. No exaggeration. It's the best.

    If you ever find yourself in South Kansas City craving some south of the border flavor and flair…read morethen look no further than this unassuming, charming family owned restaurant tucked into a quaint strip mall. El Rincon Latino Restaurant is one of the many Latin owned and operated restaurants near Grandview in Kansas City Missouri however, what makes this strip mall standby standout is the emphasis on El Salvadorian cuisine instead of the traditional Mexican or Tex-Mex offerings. Also, bonus points for them being opened early in the morning to feed those traditional A.M. working commuters though, me personally, I have never tried their breakfast offerings. The morning menu seems to consist of some hearty South American staples such as Huevos Rancheros and a breakfast burrito as well as a meal that includes 2 sweet corn tamales and a cup of coffee. The national dish of El Salvador is the papusa and El Rincon has many varieties of these on their menu, most are also vegetarian. My ultimate favorite is the one with zucchini and cheese filling but, if you are trying to be the most authentic with your filling choice then the cheese and loroco, a traditional vegetable grown in El Salvador, Guatemala, and other central American countries, would be the correct choice. The loroco is described as a mixture of artichoke and asparagus with a slight floral essence. I would describe the texture of the papusa itself as close to that of an arepa but without the presence of corn-meal or masa, the dough itself is closer to a thicker flour tortilla, sort of..maybe. Well, anyway that you try to describe these griddled UFO-looking stuffed El Salvadorian goodies isn't going to be as good as a just eating one! (Or two, or three, especially with a price just below $3 a piece they are definitely worth trying a few) Also, do not skip out on the accoutrements that come with the papusas, there is a very thin watery slightly spicy tomato based sauce (perhaps a salsa of sorts) and an amazing pickled vegetable slaw condiment that takes any of the papusas up a notch, I'm assuming these are traditional accompaniments you'd find in El Salvador when ordering this type of street food. But don't count out El Rincon for other unique South of the Border street food as well such as, sopes, gorditas, tostadas (barbacoa one is excellent) as well as great prices on street tacos- under $2 daily?! Heck to the Yes!
