Rincon Taqueria

Rincon Taqueria in Norwalk, CT is one of those places you almost don’t want to talk about because it feels like a secret. The food, vibe, and service are all on point. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and really informative. They’re happy to walk you through the menu and make recommendations based on what you like. It’s also surprisingly vegetarian- and vegan-friendly, they offer vegan meats so you can swap them into a lot of the classic dishes, which is rare for a taqueria. The food is outstanding. Even the free chips and salsa they start you with are memorable: the chips are fresh and super crunchy, and the salsa has real depth of flavor, not just heat. The entrées are some of the best value around, the burritos are massive (one could easily feed two or three people), and for t

Food is fresh and made to order if the Spanish ppl aren’t listening to loud music in the kitchen I don’t want it rice and beans were slightly over salted but the atmosphere and Ora of the restaurant was amazing, Matt the server was a great host would come again if I had 100$ to spend the burritos are huge ! One is enough to share with at least 2-3 ppl and chips and salsa are amazing!!! Wish they had more deals for happy hour !

Stopped in hoping to be blown away. Not quite. My friend and I ordered the guac to start, nothing special. I had a really good spicy margherita, I enjoyed it very much. We then had 1 chicken and 1 cheese empanada. They were both tasty. My friend ordered the braised beef quesadilla which was both our favorite dish. Then we had their enormous burrito. I was hoping it was as good as it looked but it was the most disappointing dish. We chose the chicken burrito and I immediately wished I had chosen the braised beef. The chicken was dry, tough and not tasty at all. I mentioned this to the waiter. He wasn't able to get the owner to care and address the bad chicken.

This was our first visit to Rincon Taqueria, and certainly will not be our last. Started with chips and salsa. Taste great, but only the first round is free. However I doubt a second round will be needed because the portion sizes here are HUGE. The fish tacos were the most regular sized item we got. Absolutely great tacos. Tamales were gigantic and packed with meat and flavor. These were my girlfriends favorite. And the pork burrito….man this pork burrito. Easily the biggest burrito I’ve ever seen. Might even be too big, to the point where it’s difficult to eat. Not really a burrito anymore once you need a fork and a knife. We saw the pictures online and thought, “really how big could it be?” Trust me, it’s gigantic. Wouldn’t order the burrito again, but will be returning. The prices are h

I got takeout from here after reading the reviews. What they don’t tell you is that they overcharge you if you order via phone and then make up excuses when you question it. They charged me $14 for a dip that was supposed to be $8. The burrito comes out to $24 if you add a protein which is crazy if you consider how inexpensive the ingredients are. Well, I thought I’d try anyway since I heard it’s supposed to be good but guess what - it was almost entirely rice, there was no flavor, and the “side” of salsa was a ketchup dipping size container. It covered maybe 3 bites. I was not impressed. You can get much better Mexican food for half the price pretty much anywhere else. I do not recommend.
