Rincon Limeño — Restaurant in Boston

Service was swift, friendly, and efficient. The atmosphere is a bit basic, overly bright lighting, and cafeteria like tables. The cocktails are good but very expensive ($15) in relation to their size. The Spicy Chilcano, for example, was very tasty but full of ice and in a small 4oz glass with only about 3oz of actual cocktail. The Pisco Sour was better and in a bigger glass and approximately 6oz in size without ice. Same price.

The stuffed potato was deep fried and stuffed with diced beef, onions, spices, and olives. It was quite delicious, but they were not careful to remove the olive pits and I bit down hard on one and almost cracked my tooth. It was quite painful. They should be more careful to not use any olives with pits as they can cause serious harm to diners and also be ingested. It’s possible that an olive pit was accidentally included in a package of pitted olives, but care should still be taken to ensure all olives are inspected or chopped before adding to this dish to identify and properly avoid any harmful pits.

The Clasico Rincon Limeno dish was tasty, but also quite expensive ($43) for the overall quality of the seafood. Mostly deep fried, it tasted like previously frozen (not fresh) squid, fish, yucca, and shrimp with some ceviche in a cocktail glass. Overall it wasn’t bad, but not worth the high price. The Arroz Chaufa Mariscos was better, with a nice flavor and at a better price.

Overall, not a bad choice in East Boston but it could use some...

My first experience with Peruvian cuisine and it exceeds my expectations. These are the ones I ordered:

Lomo Saltado de Pollo o Carne: The marinade on the strip stirloin was somewhat understated, but it paired excellently with the soy sauce. It was a perfect combination with the fried fries and red onion. The rice had a very slight stickiness, which I personally enjoy. (I didn’t take a photo of the dish.)

Clásico Rincon Limeno: As the name suggests, this is one of the restaurant’s specialties. It consists of a generous serving of fried fish, calamari, and shrimp, centered around seafood marinated in lemon. It’s refreshing.

Ceviche Mixto: A medley of seafood marinated in lime juice, salt, onions, and chili, served with traditional Peruvian choclo and cancha. I’m personally not really into acidic food, so I wasn’t really hyping this one. But a friend of mine who’s Ecuadorian, truly found the ceviche enchanting.

Arroz con Mariscos: I was intrigued to google how it differs from Spanish paella. One key distinction I found is that the Peruvian version uses long-grain rice, while Spanish paella uses short-grain rice. (New knowledge for a newbie!) Overall, I found this dish to be comforting.

Flan: This dessert is a vanilla-flavored custard made from milk and eggs, topped with caramel sauce. It’s sweet, rich, and heavenly...

Number one food. The dish that my wife and I get comes with a cocktail surrounded by fried seafood. It's very delicious and we love the toasted corn that it comes with number two service. The gentleman who helped us was always mindful and constantly making sure that we had everything we needed. He even accommodated me being completely blind, making sure that I understood and was receiving everything I asked for, including our drinks number three atmosphere. In terms of atmosphere, it's a little too loud for my taste but my wife was okay with it again. Being completely blind it can be a little difficult to understand my wife talking when there's music and a lot of other people speaking. It is a smaller place so a lot of sound echoes everywhere number four accessibility in and out of the restaurant is not a problem. The bathroom is easy to get to but again it is somewhat packed. So I'm not sure about going in and out on a wheelchair. However, I do know that people will be accommodating. If they see someone with a wheelchair, they'll make sure to make...
