This place is in a strip mall just west of Trader Joe's on Everett Mall Way. Lots of interesting shops and restaurants in this mall. The place was busy at 11:30 and they offered menudo with or without hominy. You could also have with or without cow knuckle/foot. Same price $21.41. I ordered with hominy and knuckle. It was incredible. No funky smell and they were extremely generous with the tripe. The broth was incredibly flavorful and they had a salsa bar with arould six or seven salas to choose from. This is the best menudo I have had yet in the state of WA. Giving it 10 out of 10. Servers very friendly and the soup came out in less than 3 minutes. Good flour tortillas as well. read more

This is a decent Mexican food spot. I ordered the enchiladas, and they were good enough, but I felt the portions were small for the price. I also added a side of consomé, and for almost $5, the serving was surprisingly tiny, about the size of a condiment cup. The food itself was fine, but the value wasn't quite there for me. Since this was a takeout order through DoorDash, I can't really comment on the service or the restaurant's ambiance. Next time, I would probably order directly and pick it up myself to get a better sense of the overall experience. read more

​I visited your restaurant tonight, Monday, July 6th, around 11:30 PM. From the moment I ordered, the attitude of the man dressed in black (the manager/shift lead) was dismissive. I don't expect over-the-top friendliness, just professional service, but his demeanor was negative from the start. ​We ordered to-go, and when we got home, the entire order was wrong: instead of 6 tacos, we received one taco with a side of rice and beans; the nachos were missing the guacamole and sour cream, and we were given only one napkin. I had to drive 20 minutes round-trip just to fix their mistake. ​What made it worse was his attitude. When I pointed out the lack of salsas, he asked, "Didn't you grab any from the station?"--even though, minutes earlier, he had explicitly told me not to touch the station because it was closed and that he would handle it himself. When I showed him the photo of the incorrect food I received, his only response was a cold "Okay." Not a single apology for the error or for wasting my time. ​To make matters worse, when we finally opened the salsas, the red sauce was completely spoiled. The container was bloated, it released gas when opened, and the sauce was sour and fermented. This is no longer just bad service; it is a serious health hazard. Mistakes happen, but serving spoiled food and displaying such arrogance is inexcusable. read more

We had been seeing signs all over advertising chicken, rice, and beans for $10.99 but couldn't figure out where the restaurant was. Turns out, it was El Rinconsito! With several locations around, we ended up going to the one on Everett Mall Way in Everett. Let's dive right into the food nothing but excellence here! My fiancé ordered the Pollo Asado for $10.99 Two leg quarters served with rice and beans. The chicken was incredibly moist, falling off the bone. Honestly, we usually avoid chicken at Mexican restaurants because it tends to be dry but this wasn't the case at all. He devoured the entire meal. Not a single bite left! I ordered the Taco Special 4 tacos & a Favorito for $11.99 While the meat options are a bit limited for the special (I wanted carne asada), I went with the birria and I have no regrets! These tacos were bomb! The meat was super flavorful and juicy, and you can choose to have them topped with onions and cilantro. This was also my first time trying a Favorito it tasted similar to Jarritos. We all went with the pineapple flavor and loved it! My daughter got the Burrito Plate with beef: Everything on her plate was super fresh, and once again not a crumb was left. It was that good! They also have a salsa bar with a variety of options, ranging from mild to extremely spicy! If you get the chance to try El Rinconsito, I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! read more

Be ready to recieve huge portions if you come! All of the plates we ordered were massive. The plate that stood out to us was the tilapia. It was crunchy on the outside, but still moist on the inside! The pollo a la diabla is also a good option to order here. The sauce had a nice kick to it, but the spice is not overwhelming. Solid place if you are craving Mexican food. read more

New to the area, husband and I love Mexican food so we decided we'll hit up every spot within a 5 mile radius to start. I think we came on a weekday night, starving and ready for some delicious Mexican food. We got sat in the bar area, the entire restaurant was pretty quiet. The bartender was super nice, we had questions as first timers and she gave us a few recommendations. I ordered the Al Pastor Tacos because that's usually my favorite go-to. My husband ordered a burrito dish with all the fixings (forgot what it was called) but I liked his dish better. As much as I wanted to like my tacos, the pork was really dry and difficult to chew. I don't like to be an inconvenience and have to ask for a remake because I worked in the serving industry for 12 years and I just feel bad. I should have said something afterall though for the price we paid... Oh well! I would definitely come back and give it another try, maybe get the burrito next time, at least the beef was soft and tender. read more

I originally went to the one in Lynwood and it was amazing. I got a bean and rice burrito at a reasonable price and it was delicious. But the thing that was great about it was that they included grilled onion and jalapeño and red and green sauce. I've been to the Everett location twice now. The first time they gave me a bean and rice platter instead of a burrito, with no salsa at all no jalapeño no onion nothing. I came back again, this time they at least gave me a burrito but there was zero salsa either in the burrito or on the side. Nothing just a plain fry burrito with no onion jalapeno or salsa. I am never coming back, I give up. read more

Okay, I'm new to the area but I've had Good Mexican food. What I love about this place is that it is comfy, welcoming and an open salsa bar. The food came out clean and fast. The person behind the cashier was very nice and accommodating. Definitely coming back. read more

I am shocked this place doesn't have better reviews. I'm not Mexican, so maybe that's why I don't know what authentic good Mexican food is. But to me, it seemed traditional and tasted delicious. The workers all spoke Spanish and the cashier of course spoke both. They were friendly and helpful. We got queso birria, adobada tacos, and a side of rice. The quesobirria tacos was a meal and came with a jarritos. It was $9.99. They have a large menu with different things to choose from, like menudo, posole, quesadillas, tortas, etc. I was throughly pleased with our food and it came out quick. read more

The upcharges are laughable. You pay extra for calling ahead, placing an online order, and now even if you're going in person and getting to go you are now charged for the food containers. If a business is so desperate you charge customers for the styrofoam their food is in, you should really consider restructuring. read more

I've been going to El Rinconsito for about 10 years since I moved to Lynnwood area.. this is the first time a mistake was made. I ordered enchiladas dinner with drink which was fine. But fried ice cream?? Where it is? I ended up getting churros instead of Fried ice cream which was on the menu. Why am I not getting it?? Here's my receipt and photo. How disappointed I am!! I'll go to Lynnwood next time. Come on please-- read my order carefully and I enjoy making my trip worthwhile to get my order! Will this happen again? Better not!! I love El Ronconsito. But not when a mistake happens. read more

ER has always delivered a great experience. These reviews are not authentic - they must be WP Taco Night fans and want *rap Mexican food. Tacos, Mulitas, gorditas, and tortas are scrumptious! read more

This place is good the sopes are made from fresh doe and the tacos are made fresh as well hand tossed it's open late which I'm thankful for because everything closes early around here the asada burrito is on point with what I'm used to in California It's a lil pricey but it's good and the service isn't too bad either the ladies are nice and I'd recommend it to someone new to the area looking for some quality Mexican food read more

Decent food and large portions but a bit expensive (what isn't these days!). I ordered pick up and it was ready in less than 10 minutes. He staff a pretty friendly too. This is definitely a great late night dining or take out option. read more

Just ordered from here on Uber eats and it was so trash got the tacos and they legit had nothing on them it was just meat in a tortilla. I want a refund but after reading the other reviews it sounds like I won't get one :( read more

During the height of the pandemic, my family and I were ordering in about once a week. We switched off as to who got to choose the restaurant and pretty much every time it was my turn? El Rinconsito is what I chose. Their rice and beans...I could live on those and always order 2 extra so that I have them in the fridge for the nest couple of days lunch. The chips are good, the salsa is good, the portions are great and my daughter and husband love the street tacos. I can't speak to the restaurant itself but as for the food? So so good! read more

Decent tacos at a decent price. During re opening of restaurants A little more details... the tacos were ok but not the best I've had. It's possible that the take out option is not as good as true dine in. My buddy said his burrito was too salty. Will try to come back to try the other menu items. read more

1. We waited 5-8 minutes before the cashier acknowledged our presence and took our order. 2. The food was cold, barely warm I would expect it to be hot and the cheese melted. 3. My order wasn't correct as in the didn't remove the stuff I asked them to. 4. (The worst). The place was just dirty, sticky tables dirty dishes everywhere. The salsa bar was gross with thrash all over it. The soda machine had so much ice in the base it was over flowing. 5. 29.00 for a burrito and 4 tacos. read more

Delicious food open all night. I often get it delivered too. They have my favorite rice and beans and veggie tacos All for a good price

I just had their birria tacos. The best I've had in town for. Coming from vegas when you know you know!! Exciting to go back

Giving this place 2 stars because the first time I came here the food was all right however after today I will not be returning first of all I ordered the cheese enchilada plate. When it came I ate a couple of scoops of rice and beans then I cut into the enchiladas and they were full of chicken. I sent it back only to receive 2 cheese enchiladas with no rice and beans. Also the enchiladas were not good at best read more

I have ordered from here a lot and often get the enchilada meal special. This time there was a piece of plastic or paper in my beans ? I thought it might be cheese but it definitely is not. i pulled it out of the beans so it was really in there, glad I spotted it. read more

I'm picky about my Mexican food. Being from CA I've gotten used to taco truck style. Most states don't have great Mexican food but this one was great. It was super fast and the asada was perfect. The tortillas were slightly oily, it would have been nice if they were grilled more with less oil, but it was great. read more

I almost never leave reviews unless they are positive but I'm so sad about this experience that I need to vent. Myself, my partner, and son are all sick and I was excited to order out instead of cooking. I've never ordered from here before and was so excited to try it! I was disappointed. My shredded beef in my burrito tasted like unseasoned, clumps of fat with a little meat. The tortilla was bland mush under the red sauce that also had no flavor. I found a hair in my burrito and finally gave up after eating another mouthful of fat from my burrito. My boyfriend ate 1.5 of his 4 street tacos before also giving up from disappointment over how bland and horrible this meal was. I finally decide to indulge and I wasted $45 I didn't have on food I didn't eat :( read more

I will never order from them again, and I was a loyal customer. I ordered from them via Uber Eats, and specified "no onions". Burrito came loaded with onions. Called them up. Hung up on me three times as I was trying to resolve the issue. Wouldn't refund my order, wouldn't send me a corrected order. Just kept telling me to contact Uber Eats. Very disappointed. read more

Rude staff. Didn't feel welcomed. Carne burrito was greasy and gave me heartburn and diarrhea. Over priced. Paid $20.00 for a horchata and a carne asada burrito. Won't be back. Don't come here unless you want to be ripped off and get diarrhea. Bring a diaper. read more

I'm an Arizona native and used to live off all the different 24/7 'bertos taco shops (Filiberto's, Roberto's, Juliobertos, etc) and have been on a mission to find Mexican food that would get more than just a passing grade in the PNW. It almost seemed impossible to find anything pleasing north of SFO as a SW native, but then I found El Rinconsito and wasn't as desperate to fly home just for the food. The taco shops here aren't 24/7, but they are open until at least midnight, sometimes later. They have refried beans (not this PNW black bean only nonsense), and carne asada tacos, and al pastor, and cheesy enchiladas dripping in melted cheese and red sauce. Due to covid the salsa bar is out but there is prepackaged salsa to go and the chili verde is just like home. They have aguas frescas and Mexican coke. They have crunchy chicken flautas, and my favorite steak ranchero in a savory sauce with onions and peppers. They have decent veggie options which can be difficult at other Mexican restaurants like veggie and sautéed mushroom quesadillas and veggie tacos. If I want my greasy late night street Mexican food fix it's here. If I want something a little less greasy there are options when navigating the menu too (but the greasy cheesy things are the best). But yeah, this makes my little AZ heart happy. read more
