El Rinconcito

Great, authentic Mexican food off the beaten path.
This family-run gem of a restaurant is what makes traveling so much fun. Provecho!

Not to be missed if you like an authentic Mexican food experience.
We read the Google reviews and decided to try it, so glad we did!
The staff is very friendly, even though we weren't familiar with all the terminology on the menu they answered our questions.
We have eaten there several times now.
Tacos are excellent, Pozole is hearty and the prices are the most inexpensive so down meal we have ever had in all of Mexico!
Food is served quick quick so go in hungry.

This place is so good and so cheap!!! We had the steak pambazo, pork pazole, and the burrito especial. All 3 were so delicious!!!! We also had 2 cokes and 2 bottled waters and the entire bill was $163 pesos (less than $9 USD)! We were the only 2 gringos when we were there but the staff is very helpful and put up with my poor spanish with a smile! We will go back before we leave Chapala! Highly recommend!

Great Local Food At Amazing Prices

We have been eating dinner here for the last couple of weeks. I have tried just about everything and they have all been delicious. If you want to get a full service meal that fills you up for 50 Pesos (or less!) then this is the place.

Their deserts are also delicious and cost around 30 pesos (for a generous slice of thick cheesecake, for example).

The Gringas Especiales is a better deal than getting 2 tacos, and it has more meat.

We typically found a waiter who spoke pretty good English, but it is not guaranteed! Be brave, the worst thing you might end up with is pig knuckles! As an experienced traveller once told us: order what you want, eat what you get!

I just had their daily special (3 chicken enchiladas for 45 pesos) and they were super delicious and full of chicken. I am about to burst. What an amazing Value.

Hole in the wall serving authentic local dishes. We ordered 6 different dishes and all tasted quite good with the highlight being the pambazo. Our waiter spoke English as well, and helped us understand the menu. Highly recommended!

Food is delicious, service is excellent, and price is very reasonable. Highly recommended!

Love this place! Everything is tasty with good portions, great flavor and low prices! They don't put spice in and have salsa at the table so you can control the level. Kind and efficient servers and the place is so cute! Had to go back twice in our short trip. Highly recommend!

Food is delicious, authentic and affordable. Tortillas are all hand made upon ordering. Went here several times while on vacation. Service was good, building is an older house with a genuine rustic charm to it! Definitely recommend. My favorite was there $5 tocos dorados de papa, yum!

We were impressed with the simple menu, very fair prices, and excellent food. Service was quick and friendly. Portions were good. Highly recommended.

Must-visit! Very unassuming, hidden little restaurant packed with locals. Menu is hard to navigate but you won’t go wrong with your choice, and the food is super affordable. Try the pambazas de arrecha... they are nothing short of life-changing.

The food and service was great. I'll be back.

Omg! the best enchiladas ever delicious🤤😋

This place was so good--no frills, no nonsense, just delicious food and cheap beer.

Best arrachera de res EVER! Large portions and very inexpensive. Just up off the Malecon and well worth the trip. Looks like a little hole on the wall in a residential neighborhood. This place is amazing! The service is friendly and very quick.

The food is great, the staff is friendly, and the prices are fantastic. A limited menu but you can have a good home style meal for 20 to 30 pesos. Can't be beat.

This is authentic Mexican food from all over, truly a special find. Go there! There aren't a lot of gringos in there, be not afraid try everything.
