    What a gem we found. While it's not much to look at from the outside, the food is authentic and fantastic! Not far at all from Caesar's Casino, on Florida and Pacific, the 4 different tacos tasting meal, as well as the deep fried fish platter are a MUST have... cash only, sadly no delivery or advance orders. TOTALLY worth the wait!

    The place is small and cozy, ordered the tacos and they were made fresh. Three come in the order and they’re made fresh. Very good spot!!

    WHAT A DISGUSTING PLACE WITH HORRIBLE OWNERS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. I have never been spoken to by an "owner" in such an unprofessional manner before. I pre ordered 30 tacos the day before for a party the next day for 7pm pickup. When my boyfriend arrived he was told "the tacos were not ready yet and it would be about 30-40 mins" we were expecting people to arrive to our party at 8pm and when my bf said that we had called the day before for the tacos to be ready by 7pm the "owner/manager" then said "ten mins" when clearly it was NOT going to be 10 mins since she hadn't even started the tacos. With my bf not being able to speak Spanish I decided to call the restaurant myself to see what had happened.. the owner told me she said they would be ready in 10 mins and my bf simply didn't want to wait (not true)... she then changed her story and said she didn't even realize it was 7pm and she was very busy (understandable) but then she tells me "THIS ORDER IS NOT IMPORTANT TO ME ITS A SMALL SIMPLE ORDER THIS ORDER DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING TO ME SO DO YOU WANT IT OR NOT TELL ME NOW." I am absolutely disgusted in this place. El Rincon Del Sabor, next time do not take preorders if you can't handle the responsibility of having it ready on time for the CUSTOMER. You used to be my favorite place and I recommended everyone to this restaurant... not anymore! TRASH SERVICE.

    Got 10 mixed tacos to split between 2 adults and 2 kids, every taco was a work of art, kids agreed, these are legit "the best tacos we've ever had".

    We got chicken tacos and beef nachos. Food was amazing. Sauces were on point. Will definitely return. Decent prices.

    Went there with my Hispanic partner and had an AMAZING meal. From his experience, the dishes were muy authentico. Beef tongue tacos were tender and flavorful. They were out of some items, which probably means that the ingredients are fresh, and there is plenty else to choose from if your first choice is not available. Cash only. Seemed like they preferred take-out, as there were only 4 small tables inside.

    This place deserves 7 stars. Clean, simple, friendly and most importantly the Al Pastor was incredible. The meat was tender and flavorful. Tortillas soft and strong enough to bend and not break. Salsas complimented the tacos very well. Excellent spot.

    So good! If you're tired or casino restaurant food, stop here for some great home cooking. I highly recommend everything. Super fresh, super favorable. We went late November it was pretty cold outside but these generous plates took care of that. I will definitely be coming back. Looking forward to trying it out in the summer. A short walk from Ceaser's.

    Finally some Tacos with authentic taste. I've been searching for Mexican food in NJ for almost a year now and this place is simply the best I've known (I am from Guadalajara, Mexico). Place is cash only.

    A hole in the wall place serving locals and tourists alike with great Mexican food. Tacos were spot on. Don't come for dine in if you have a large group. The seating area is smallish. Took out one star from service because there was no jalapenos that I asked for specifically and promised twice that they would be in the package.

    Small restaurant that feels very authentic. I would probably get takeout in the future as service was slow, although they were extremely friendly. Food was delicious! Didn’t try their tacos but that is definitely something I want to get. The carne asada was good.

  • 5/5 Katarzyna A. 5 months ago on Google
    Lovely and authentic place. For all the celiacs out there, 90% of the menu is gluten-free, because it is based on corn and not wheat. Our waiter was very, very kind and asked us few times if surely all is good withour food! Their tacos are homemade and delicious. Highly recommend! Edit: I went there 2nd time and ordered the same. Food quality is still great 👍

    Fantastic restaurant, super authentic. Best Mexican food I've ever had. Not much to look at since it's just a small, local business, but the food was absolutely delicious. It was freshly made, had a good price, and came fairly quickly. The people working there were also super nice and super helpful in guiding us through their menu based on our dietary restrictions. I will eat here again next time I'm in Atlantic City and will also recommend this place to everyone I know!

    I’m Mexican and very often when a place says “authentic Mexican food” I’m disappointed. NOT HERE. If you want to know what Mexican food tastes like in Mexico, this is the place. I had a tlayuda (typical dish from Oaxaca), tacos de suadero (this is basically brisket but the Mexican way — soft, juicy, understated and so rich), and my girlfriend had the quesabirrias (she’s not Mexican so she picked a crowd pleaser and wasn’t disappointed). This place is a kind of iconic sample of what I love the most about Mexico — it’s a small space, but they make it shine. The food is so much cheaper than anything on the Boardwalk, too. I’m not even from AC but I will be coming back just for these tacos!

    We had the Beef Nachos and a beef chimichanga and they were both delicious. The young lady that helped us place our order (Paula) was very friendly and very helpful. The only downside is there is no AC so it was a little warm in there.

    Been coming here 4 years ! The best tacos and red and green sauce are my fav !

  • 5/5 A P. 1 year ago on Google
    I got the brisket tacos from here. They were so good. I am still thinking about them. The lady that took my order and made the tacos was really nice. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

  • 5/5 Karen K. 2 years ago on Google
    Went there for lunch with my husband. It was a nice alternative to boardwalk or hotel restaurant food. The chicken burrito and the chicken quesadilla were delicious and freshly made with fajita-style veges (caramelized onions and peppers). They both came with guacamole and crema with hot sauce but no salsa. Service was friendly and fast. Prices were reasonable for Atlantic City. Fyi, it is cash only.
