El Rincon Familiar

The first two times we went there were some order mix ups-but even after we discovered them we plugged away-it was just that good. Slightly spicy shrimp nachos($5.50) or chorizo nachos($4.50) are a tough choice-do what we do and get an order of each and share. Of course you may want to try the mushroom quesadilla($3.95) or the chicken($4.60) which are tastier than most but we stick with the nachos. If you're still looking for the perfect black bean soup($2.95) this isn't it-some hot sauce would pick it up but it is satisfying. The avocado salad with lemon dressing in a tortilla basket($4.50) is worth having. Lots of perfectly ripe avocado with lettuce and tomato-you can fool yourself into thinking you're eating healthily.

While the menu is mostly meat, there are vegetarian entrees. Combo #5($7.95) comes with a guacamole taco-a corn tortilla stuffed generously, a cheese enchilada-which while not entirely flavorful, is satisfying in a chewy manner and a mixed vegetable burrito. This burrito isn't as large as the ones at Burritoville but it's filled with mixed veggies, rice, and covered with a tasty sauce. The chicken mole($8.95) and pork chops($9.50) are also worthwhile. Yellow rice and refried beans accompany every dish - but this time you might actually want to eat them.

Desserts are pretty limited and not worth following up on.
