    Josie G.

    Such a great experience, the owner was super friendly super attentive of us. The food is top notch. The croquetas were the best part !!! Loved it definitely coming back !!!

    Part of the Pretty Menu

    I came in with my son to eat a steak sandwich. I didn't expect much, but we were in the area and hungry. Let me state that it was amazing!! Cute little cozy spot, very clean, very polite. Great taste. Highly recommend it. I feel bad for the restaurant industry in these times. Tip well. #covid2020

    The breakfast food was good and big porción.

Such was the other day when dropping & picking up my car from the auto shop a short walk over from Rinconcito. It's located in a strip mall - along with a few other restaurants - on NW 36th Street next to Palmetto Ford. Needless to say, after starving all day at work and rushing to pick it up before closing time, I was famished and stopped here in my repaired car. The dining room space inside is pretty large, plus they have a few outside tables. My waitress was casually pleasant: not the same level of attention you'd expect at a white glove spot but I wasn't ignored either. I ordered the somewhat healthyish Pollo a la Plancha. Served with cut up onions, a dash of sazon completa and two lemon wedges, this was huge! It took up the entire real estate of a plate, such that the sides were on a separate one. The chicken had good taste & texture, and again, the plate was large and filling. The moros (cuban rice) was with red beans, instead of the black beans I prefer & of course I loved my platanitos (fried plantains). Oh, and cafecito was had. I definitely needed the energy!

It's a great place to grab a quick meal without feeling like you're sacrificing quality. Service is quick and efficient, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

If you're looking for good food that's affordable and served quickly, this place definitely hits the mark. I'll definitely be coming back.

At around 10:05 PM, I called the bakery side for assistance and the employee who answered hung up on me. When I approached the counter, the manager responded by recording me on his cellphone instead of helping. Another employee backed him up and claimed I was being "aggressive," which is completely untrue--I was simply asking why I had not been served. I have photo evidence of the interaction. As a disabled U.S. veteran, I found this experience especially disappointing. I expected basic service and respect, but instead felt ignored and disrespected. I tried to resolve this issue directly with the business before posting this review. I was told I would receive a response within 48-72 hours, but I never received any follow-up. Beyond the original incident, the lack of communication and accountability from management is disappointing.
