El Rinconsito

Delicious, Authentic, friendly staff and priced very reasonable. The salsas are delicious.

Absolutely delicious. Fresh and seasoned so well. Everything we ordered had so much flavor. The home made corn tortillas were fresh and beautiful. The carne asada was thin and had so much flavor. Would absolutely come back and recommend to anyone passing through town. I will be back. Thank you so much.

Amazing place. I've been to many Mexican restaurants in the area and this is by far the best. Casa Birria was amazing.

We stayed in Brookings South Dakota for the night, but having spent most of our lives living on the Mexican border in California and Texas we are always on the lookout for good Mexican food. My husband saw Rinconsito on line so we decided to head here for lunch before going to Pipestone National Park. So glad we did. The service was fantastic. The owner was so sweet. My husband, son, and I all ordered different things and all loved them, and she surprised us with a complimentary plate of bunuelos with chocolate drizzle and homemade whipped cream that were to die for after learning we were from out of state. My only regret is that I was too shy to practice my fading spanish with her. I think ahe would have been kind with my fumbling!

In my opinion, in the best Mexican restaurants, most of the customers are speaking Spanish, and that's what you have here—which tells you that the Mexican food here is as authentic as it gets. And it is absolutely terrific, easily the best in the area. For five years or more, we have driven almost 100 miles round trip to eat here, and we do that almost once a month. And every time, without fail, it has been worth the trip.
