Rincon Norteño Cafe Indio Reviews
Amazing family feel, great food and friendly atmosphere. I hadn't been in over 20 years, I took mom there for breakfast the other morning, and it was still exactly the same
I really liked it here. The food was very good, reasonably priced, and the service was attentive and friendly.
Martin was our waitress and boy did she work it. So did our bartender. Fresh brew coffee at the end of the meal. First of all she bought us 3 cups of that OUTSTANDING salsa. The carne asada was just big enough for my buddy who is 6'5" and about 240 lbs. He loved it! My chicken enchiladas w/rice was EXCELLENT. TOO big for me to finish! Although the next day, it took 2 more attempts, and still have leftovers.. .
Authentic, great quality, portions plentiful and welcoming service! Best Mexican food I’ve ever had!
A favorite place for weekend breakfasts each weekend. Pru-Dance the owner has really done well after his father establish this Restaurant. Real Mexican American food dishes. Where his Patriots keep returning. His attitudes of good service and repore go well . Highly recommend Breakfast. SAN’s A/C
Tamales, cheese enchiladas rice and beans, salsa, and cold jaimica great way to quench what you have missing out on. Prudencio is a proud second generation owner. Kudos to the crew.
Looking for some real authentic Mexican food you found the right place! We have been coming here for 30 plus years, great service, great cooks, a great team! The menu has something for everyone, they will accommodate you to your liking. Reasonably priced and there is a full bar. Some of the best margaritas in town! Family owned, so if you have not been to this restaurant. Put it on your list, you will not regret it!
Great food.. great location!! C u there! The staff is courteous and friendly. A simple taco and enchilada tell me how good the food is. The red sauce is perfect for my pallet and gets my vote for the best Mexican food in Indio! Update Rincon Norteno is celebrating its 60th year in 2024! I have been a guest for 5 years! Located in Old Indio, Rincon has outdoor seating and serves breakfast! The staff is ready to provide excellent service and blend your favorite delicious Margarita! The menu is loaded with your favorite Mexican dish! Great spot for large parties and special occasions! Any restaurant that has survived 60 years let's you know they are good! C U there soon!
This place is a staple in the city of Indio, hands down. It's very well known by the locals, and has really updated their atmosphere. The service is very good, and the food is better. The salsa is some of the best in the valley. If you're coming for breakfast I recommend getting the huevos rancheros.
Excellent experience! The machaca con huevos (shredded beef with eggs) was super yum! The staff is super friendly and helpful, the waiter had my drink in no time, and the waitress convinced me to get the Mexican breakfast potatoes, which were great. I've always seen this place but never tried it, and I regret not going before. 10/10!
We’ve eaten here several times, but tried the trio fajitas and honestly they were awful. Not very much flavor and the beef strips were extremely tough and uneatable. The service was very very good and the margaritas were excellent.
Celebrating my birthday and the atmosphere was so warming, people were very friendly the staff was very friendly. It felt like I was going to sit at my Mother's table with the welcoming atmosphere the food was a 8 out of 10, the margarita 10 out of 10! To thank Kenya and Maxine for their personal as well as professional love!
Food was excellent. Service was great. Prices a little high but the portions are big. In a sea of Mexican restaurants this one stands out.
Solid 4 star experience however there was one glaring weakness, for me a huge one. Chili Relleno is one of my benchmark dishes for any mexican restaurant and here it was a disgrace. Small and tasteless. That said everything else was outstanding. As has been mentioned in other reviews their table salsa is crazy good. The margaritas were top notch as well. Sides and my wife's entree was also stellar. Had to take one star off for the relleno bit beyond that we loved the place. Recommended for everything but the chili relleno
I always judge a Mexican spot by its salsa at the beginning and then it’s rice and beans during the meal. All three pass the check. The Jamaica isn’t fresh/home made but you can’t have it all. Great parking. The chicken burrito - grilled - was so delicious. The torta has the perfect bread. Everyone in the group was pleased.
In my husbands words; Respect the salsa! The service was excellent, very friendly and it was obvious that the place is well loved by their regulars and I can see why! My only thing is that it was a bit to greasy, but the food was good and I'm more then happy to give them my buisness if I'm ever driving trough the area again.
Unfortunately didn't find the food very flavorful, beef very fatty. Margaritas were awful, tasted like a very cheap/bad mix. Maybe a little spoiled? Not sure what went wrong there. Service was great and the waitresses were really lovely. I liked the soup that came with the meal.
Server was great but food was tasteless. Pancakes were raw. Coffee was disgusting and cold. Our first and last time here. So disappointing
Im here in the area for work and was craving chips and salsa and margaritas. It was amazing and the waitress was good as well. How ever the food was absolutely awful. We got Chilequiles and egss and carne asada fries... It was tasteless, cold and missing authenticity... I do not recommend this place if you are craving authentic Mexican food, and lots of flies in the building... We left most of our plate and the total was 53 bucks for 2 people. Ouch...
