I had outstanding Chile Rellenos in Mexico three decades ago and have been searching for something comparable ever since. Finally found it here at El Rincon. A lovely little place just across the street from the cathedral.

Best chicken tacos I’ve ever had! The chicken was just the right amount of crispy and with a little aji It was perfection!

Paterson has a lot of good Mexican food and El Rincon has to be somewhere at the top of the list. I am not sure how authentic these nachos cantinero are but they taste amazing. I frequently order their quesadillas de pollo, tamales verde, tamales de Rajas (stuffed with peppers and cheese), and their tacos de bistec. Call them. You won't be disappointed. Btw... their prices are cheap for the quantity of food that your getting.

Our go-to spot for authentic tacos. Their taquiza is our absolute favorite.. always flavorful and true to traditional Mexican taste. We've also tried their sandwiches and fresh juices, and everything has been consistently delicious
