El Brinquito Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
I really love this place, the salsa is piquant, it's spicy and sprightly! The chips are the best, not greasy or over salted , and warm. Their street tacos are great with two fresh tortillas per taco. As it should be. Their chili relleno is fantastic, try it. Real agua fresca too.
I just ate the very best veggie quesadilla that I've ever had. Marvelous flavors with spinach and mushrooms. Yum! I live 1.25 hours away, and am glad I found this place!
There was a Seinfeld episode where Jerry and George discussed salsa being the #1 condiment in the world. They said it's because people liked to say "salsa." I say people must have ate at El Brinquito. The salsa is amazing and better yet, they serve two! One is a bit on the fiery side and the other is just chunky goodness. The chips are served warm and have just a hint of salt. And let me tell ya, it goes quick because they are so addictive. Salsa isn't the only thing they serve that's good. I had shrimp tacos and they were killer! The shrimp were big, cooked perfectly and topped with a fantastic guacamole. The corn tortillas were oh so fresh too. Service is very polite and food comes out quick. Defined check this place out. Go for the tacos and stay for the salsa, I say.
¡Muy delicioso! Order at the counter then find a seat OR sit and be served. They recently remodeled their outdoor patio and it is very accommodating. It has been a little cold for me but it'll be a great spot when the weather warms up a bit. Service is always friendly, goes at a very relaxed pace. Chips and salsa are a great start. Modelo on draft. Carnitas is hubby's favorite. Carne asada for our son. Chile relleno and cheese enchiladas for me. Red sauce. Simple. Delicious. Telenovellas, mariachi karaoke or news playing on the TV. Nothing fancy, just everything comfortable about this place that has become our go-to spot.
