The name on the outside is El Rinconcito. But inside all signage and menu is a different. Whatever they have going on with that .., it’s their business. I asked. And they said they couldn’t change the sign outside. Ok so … 1) We walk in and instantly there’s a slight moldy smell. We continue to the tables which are covered in red tablecloths. Every tablecloth is dirty and not wiped down. I wiped mine with a tissue which the server didn’t seem to mind or care. Our instinct was to turn around and leave. We should have. 2) The menu is dirty. So now we’re regretting sitting down but still giving a chance to the restaurant. 3) We ordered 2 café con leches. The server didn’t seem to understand what that was. We explained. We ordered the breakfast without meat. Which included eggs, p

Las Pupusas Were freaking Amazing Not better than my moms, but very good. Extremely good. And the prices are incredible. I will be back. When in Jersey. I was upset. I didn’t get more!!!!!!! And I wanted to drive back to leave a bigger tip. I’m upset I didn’t. That’s why I wrote the review.

My husband and I went to eat pupusas today at this restaurant. Overall, las pupusas were good. Las revueltas y las de chicharron con queso were “like your mom’s pupusas” ( according to my husband). Great taste and not too much masa. The frijol con queso estaban buenas with the curtido y salsa. The horchata was okay. I just didn’t like the fork on my plate porque las pupusas se comen con las manos like a true Salvadorian!! We are going back to try more of their food.

The pupusas are sooo delicious. They taste fresh and super yummy. I also ordered the chicken tenders and my kids loved it. Try the melon juice ! It’s great !

The food was delicious. They only take cash so this is what happened to me... I could not find an ATM anywhere near by for blocks and I walked like six blocks up and down and there was not one ATM. When I went back they told me that I can go back and pay for it later. I surely did and gave them a good tip.
