Not real sure what happened but we got takeout with grub hub last night and the food was DISGUSTING! The beans were like water and no one ate them. Not to mention there was literally a teaspoon portion. We had five meals and everyone said theirs was NOT good. The to go boxes were a mess by the time they got here. Way too many other places to spend $80 on. read more

I'm here visiting from San Antonio Texas. Sanantonio. That's pretty much the home of Mexican food restaurants. I got to say though. This is a great little place! The waitress who sat me was super friendly and rather cute. I ordered the beef burrito with my cheese sauce topping option. Delicious! I do recommend this place for sure. Look for me a Spotify/iTunes/Amazon music un THE VENTRICLES My Neighbor is my Friend. I don't like gourmet Mexican food. So, I was a little leery coming here. But this is nothing like gourmet Mexican food. This is the real thing. I don't have anything against so-called gourmet Mexican, but once they start adding alternative ingredients to fit someones special diet or to change the flavor up to more of a chef like creation, it ceases to become Mexican food and really moves into healthy Latin influenced fare. Try this place! It's great! read more

El Rincon - Mexican Near Me - Pflugerville, Texas

Literally one of the worst experiences I've had in a long time. My friend and I ordered our two kids a kids meal and after that the server never came back and took my order. 40 minutes later I was asking where the kids meals were. The server mentions he forgot to tell us they were out of corn dogs. So my friend orders her kid another meal but I'm still wondering where my kids meal is. And I still didn't even get to order. At that point I didn't even want to because I didn't want to be stuck there another two hours waiting for my meal. 15 more minutes goes by and still no food for the kids!! We just cancel it and ask for the check. Surprisingly we still had to pay, they didn't care that we had an awful experience. I left hungry and my baby did too :( read more

2nd attempt to eat here ended like first attempt, walked out because I sat at the table for 15 mins with not so much of a drink order taken. For mediocre at best Tex mex. I'll move along elsewhere. read more

Made my order on door dash and it did not allow me to make modifications. I called immediately and when the woman answered she was so rude.... said the order was already made .... really in 2 minutes. She sounded annoyed she even had to talk to me. Was quiet and the would make smark remarks. She never repeated the order, I had to yell the whole time because it was so loud. It's to early to be mean. Why what's the point? it's your job be kind. I was simply asking for help with my order.... that supports your business. I am sad by the employee behavior here they have always been rude and entitled .... I guess it's time to stop supporting this local restaurant. It's not remarkable and the service is so rude. Sad read more

I'm always left disappointed when I order through delivery apps because they never pay attention to the details requested. I get that they are a busy restaurant but still the lack of attention to details per a customer request is unacceptable. read more

Definitely not the best experience. Start with the parking lot or neighbors muddy death traps, that they just use. The waitress did not speak English, margarita was warm. Orders came out wrong, never made right. Finally got more chips and salsa along with our to go box and ranchero sauce. After the 45" drive to get there. We won't go back. read more

The food is great! I 100% would recommend the Menudo! If you're not a menudo type the carne asada is really good too!

We dropped in for an early evening meal. The place was not crowded yet, even though I have usually seen the parking lot quite full. It was HH, so we split a large Margarita (brain-freeze time), and placed our orders. The Lady had 2 tacos, but I was starving so I ordered the Carne Guisda Plate. The service was friendly and attentive. Our orders arrived and the Lady liked her tacos and my Carne Guisada Plate was quite large and quite acceptable. I do suggest ordering a side of sliced jalapenos if you like to bring the heat above the provided salsa. We ate every single bite. It is satisfying, not they new fusion style, and still maintains a south Texas taste. I would return, but also browse for other items to give them a try. read more

Horrible food. We are so disappointed at the quality of this Mexican food. We ordered our food "To Go". 3 plates of cheese enchiladas and 2 plates of carne asada. The enchiladas are made with Velveeta cheese. It's not just melted on the top but filled inside too. By the time we got home the cheese had cooled and hardened into a lump. The carne asada meat was dry and too salty to eat. We spent $80.00 tonight and we can not eat this food because the quality is so poor. Never coming back. read more

Service is great, bad food , really bad food!! lack of flavor meat very dry, tasteless. I bought two different item, both lack of flour totally disappointed. read more

3 stars for food but for delivery their containers are the worst. If they are signed up for delivery at least do it right. Our dinner could have been smoothies by the time the driver put it on our front door. Refry bean, rice, and meat are all mixed. Bean should of the pack in a cup. Then cheese, lettuce, and pico are all mixed. read more

Love this place. Their breakfast tacos are some of the best. Cheap and easy! Just moved back to Texas and thank goodness because California has never heard of breakfast tacos. read more

I've been going to this place for years! I always order the guacamole salad and the el Rincon enchiladas with extra gravy. Two chicken and one beef. They are amazing. I haven't tried anything else on the menu nor do I want too. The enchiladas are a must order. The mean is seasoned to perfection. The portion is just enough to make you full. The service can be hit or miss. But they do get really busy. But once I get my food. I'm all set. Tip: ask for extra gravy with the enchiladas. Thank me later read more

The food was not horrible nor amazing. The outside looks just as bad in the inside not super clean. People were nice though. 6/10 read more

Always a solid choice for Tex Mex! Everything we have ever ordered here has been on point and hit the spot! Pflugerville isn't known for their amazing Mexican food. This place always delivers the flavor and freshness! read more

We got chicken tortilla soup, green enchiladas with chicken and nachos supreme with fajita chicken. Oh my gawd!!! Each of the dish was sooo sooo good.. I am 8 months preggo and was craving for chicken tortilla soup from a long time. I was skeptical whether the soup would be good or not for to go, but damn sooo good.. happy tummy read more

El Rincon - Chicken Tortilla Soup - Mexican Near Me - Pflugerville, Texas

Happy Monday everyone! I visited this restaurant in Pflugerville, (love that name!), yesterday for Sunday brunch. The restaurant could use a good cleaning, hence the four-star. The michelada, and salsa was tasty, and the fish tacos were outstanding, with a large piece of grilled tilapia and slaw. One was filling, and I had one to take home for lunch on Monday. I wouldn't recommend the queso or guacamole, they were pretty bland. The waitress Griselda was very attentive. read more

Open for dine in or carry out. It's the house salsa for me. Along with the fajitas plate made the perfect lunch everything seasoned just right read more

I eat here a lot. Very delicious food. Breakfast is my favorite. Service has always been great.

They need to change the name to El Rincon de Caca. Absolutely, the worst. I had a party of 5 / reservation at 6:30 and told them they would be arriving late. I got there at 6:10p and they sat me at a 4-top with an extra chair.... WTH??? There were open 5 and 6 tops and they are going to cram us on a 4-top. Not only that, but the table was directly in front of the band. So, I asked kindly to be moved to a bigger table and away from the band. They then proceeded to sit me at a 6-top, which fine, but it was right next to the kitchen where the wait-peeps put their orders in, pick up their food and drinks, it's a blind spot. So, I asked to be moved again, they finally got it right, a round top that seat 6. Like I said, my party arrived late. At the same time when they arrived, our wait person got a 15 top on the other side of the restaurant. We sat there and sat there and sat there...... you get it. I had to get up and ask who was going to wait on us. One waiter said, let me get her. We sat there and sat there and sat there...... you get it. So, I got up and asked him to wait on us so we can get our order in before the 15 top b/c you know how that will go. They finally take our order and it comes out timely. I ordered the Taco Salad with extra Fajita meat. The meat was terrible. It was like they opened a packet of beef jerky and threw it on the grill to warm it up. Remember the extra meat.... maybe 5 pieces of meat in the damn thing. We finished our meal and sat and talked for bit. We were in a room with 6 or 7 tables and only 3 were sat. Our plates sat in front of us until we left. I know the wait person trick, don't pick the plates up and don't refill their beverages and they will leave. I can see that if there was a wait or they needed the table, but there was no wait and they did not need the table. So, I said all that to say...... Adios El Rincon de Caca!!!! No recomendación!!!!! read more

Great service, yummy chips and salsa and the beans and rice were pretty decent. I wouldn't return because the taco meat was so gross that we literally had to pull it out of our tacos. It reminded me of dog food. Maybe it was rotten or something or maybe it was something, but it was just gross and neither my husband or I could eat it. I just hope that neither of us end up getting sick from the one bite that we did take. Unfortunately, we will not be back. I gave them three stars instead of two because the service was very good and the manager took care of the bill for us since we complained about the meat. read more

Incredibly surprised to see negative reviews. My family and I recently went to El Rincon on a Friday night. They had live music and the ambiance was absolutely incredible. The staff was sweet and super attentive. They had a mix of both English and Spanish, my in-laws really enjoyed it. They took covid precautions, we felt safe and and not to mention the food and drinks did not disappoint. If you go to Rincon we recommend the pork fajitas and the regular fajitas. We ordered many drinks and got excellent quality!! We will definitely be returning and recommending to our friends and family. Thank you to "Isela" I believe her name was who took rounds around to make sure everything was great!! read more

Ordered on GrubHub - one beef fajita and one shrimp fajita. The shrimp fajita was a mixture of mostly beef and 4 shrimp. The beef was so hard on his my husband couldn't chew it. I DONT eat beef! Also the measly two tortillas were cold. I paid over $50 for a fucked up meal read more

Menudo is ALWAYS amazing. I'm from El Paso and I approve of this menudo. I've had the pozole before and it's green and also a 10/10. I've only ordered through Uber eats but I'm sure the service and location is amazing as well. My boyfriend always gets the flautas and is obsessed as well. The only thing is I wish they would offer bread with the menudo (that's just how it came where I'm from). read more

I was looking forward to this place because of how conveniently close it was. Food was ok. I've had better and would definitely take the extra 10 min to go to a better restaurant. Service was very slow, which was surprising because it wasn't busy. A table that was sat 15 min after us got their food before us. THE WORST PART was when the food finally came. The food runner spilled hot queso in my 3 WEEK OLD INFANT'S lap!!!!!!!!! Good thing we had a few layers over him so he didn't get scalded. The runner apologized. But that's it. The server came and said "heard what happened. Sorry". No show from the manager. We're not coming back. We're not the type of people to make a fuss so we quietly left after our meal. But we're NEVER COMING BACK read more

I've been coming here for almost a year. With overall good experience but in the last two months it's been downhill. It started when I ordered menudo a soup and when I got home it was a massive soup container of velveeta. After that I didn't order for about a month now I recently ordered the same soup and I arrive and they are closed. So the woman took my order 15 min before close told me it will be ready in 15 min. I arrive and they are closed at 2pm and I arrived 2:05. The person taking the order should say we can't take orders we're closing in 15 min or they should simply know I'm otw as they told me I should be and should be able to take my payment. I won't be back. read more

Have been a regular customer for 12 years. My second trip in the past month to have my favorite TORTILLA SOUP, which I considered to be the best in the area. A couple of weeks ago I had to give it back because it had ZERO flavor, the "white meat chicken" was tough and had no taste. Yesterday I went again to have it and it was the same. The cook/ownership didn't seem to care. They just shrugged off my concern and said they will continue to use the processed white meat not go back to the flavorful dark meat as before. So no more El Rincon for me. They lost a loyal customer. Taking SHORTCUTS to save money at the expense of quality is a NO GO for me. read more

Bland food, little to no seasoning, cheaply made. Dirty floors, tables and chairs. Tried twice and disappointed both times.

Went for dinner on 1/18/19. The place was busy but we were able to get seated right away in the area where Abraham Weaver was playing. We had wanted to try this place for a while. It was clean and better than expected. The service was great and the chips and salsa were amazing. Hot and fresh just what we wanted. The drinks were perfectly made. Service was very good and we will definitely be back. read more

I ordered breakfast tacos from here, they were not good. Everything was dry. The eggs over cooked, flour tortillas were terrible. Maybe their other food is better. When I called to place my order the girl was super rude and short. I called back to ask if I could pay for the order over the phone and she was super rude again, just said no and hung up. I will not be going back here. Just moved to the area and love to try local restaurants but this one is a no for me. read more

Haven't eaten in here since the pandemic started (until today), but this place is still phenomenal! Chips are probably so-so at best, but the table salsa is incredible! Queso was good with slices of actual jalapeño in it. Everyone loves their food, and there was more than we could eat! Fajita beef burritos, chicken fajitas, bean and cheese chalupas, beef tacos, and chicken flautas were all great! We'll be coming back more often now! read more

We love El Rincon! Their margaritas are delicious and such a great deal- $5 for a large! Roger is the best server- we've been seated on the patio twice now and he has provided excellent service. Thursday nights they have an amazing mariachi band too! read more

I don't recommend unless you like Velveeta and Roaches. First impressions... It was a little divey but sometimes the best food comes from little dives. Tables didn't feel sticky and it seemed clean. Server was experienced and attentive (until they got busy). Prices were decent. Strawberry Margarita was good. Food came out fast However.... Drink order was wrong. Food order was wrong... ordered two enchiladas, one cheese & one chicken. Received two cheese enchilada and the cheese in the enchiladas tasted like Velveeta... Yuck. The portable a/c unit in the back room, where we were seated, couldn't keep up with the heat. It was barely cooler than outside on a 97 day. The roach... A huge ROACH ran across the floor and right under our table!! It ran in circles under my feet which I was holding up Never going back! Waited a LONG time to get the check so we could leave. read more
