Rinconcito Salvadoreño — Restaurant in San Francisco

The food here is really bad. I asked for a carne asada plate and the meat was inedible. It was still folded in a way that meat looks like when it's frozen. It had a steamed look to it and the seasoning, if you wanna call it that(looked like knorr chicken bullion), was concentrated heavily to only a corner of the meat. The "salad" that came with it was wilted and the rice mushy and tasteless. My friend ordered a plate of breaded shrimp, they were the super tiny kind you buy frozen from the supermarket, they were gummy and old tasting, accompanied by the same horrible sides that came with my meal. We waited a little bit over an hour for our order so while we waited we asked the lady behind the counter for a drink, since we weren't even offered one by the waitress and asked her how much longer , since we were the only costumers??? She completely ignored us and kept cooking. The waitress finally brought our food but no drinks. We asked HER this time for our drinks, she turned and with her back to us told us we never ordered drinks from her. Long story short, we didnt eat the food , didnt get drinks and ended up paying $57 for pre- frozen crap. The lady behind the counter still had the gull to ask us about the tip and got angry when I wouldn't let her keep the change from the $60 I handed her to pay the bill. My friend let out a frustrated sigh as he shook his head and she got even angrier and told us not to go back. At this point, I had had enough and told her no to worry, I wouldn't go back if her food was free. NO, I DO...

The first time I came to this place, I went around 1 or 2 p.m with the family and I loved the food. It was fresh and hot and very tasty. This was probably at the begining of this year. We recently went again and I was excited to go but this last experience was horrible. We went around 9p.m. I ordered the same plate and it was not fresh at all. My shrimp was not fresh and my food was not hot. The food made me sick the next day. The only good thing was the tortillas hand made. The waitress was also pretty cool. The other part that was horrible was all the racket the guys at the bar had and all their bad comments towards a race I rather not mention in this review to not cause any more problems. The restaurant manager really needs to stop that kind of behavior, I am not sure who the guy behind the bar was that was watching the game with them but I hope it was not the manager or owner because that just looks awful in a business. I will no longer recommend this place or come around...

I have to rave about this place!!! I am so thankful I got hungry while commuting on the bus as I jumped off when I saw this restaurant nearby. The food was incredible.... I'm talking the most tender crane asada I've ever eaten.

I had the carne asada plate with a side of plantains 10/10 hands down. The waitress was so sweet; I accidentally forgot my wallet and they were so understanding.

I am actually glad I did because now I have another reason to go back tomorrow and order the same...
