Taqueria El Rincon 3193 South Mount Juliet Road, Mt. Juliet, TN 37122

"I love the food and convenience here, its right down the street! but today I got stabbed in the roof of my mouth with a piece of sharp hard plastic that was in my menudo, my husband had hair in his food also. Today was a horrible experience and most likely my last visit. This is sad to me everyone is so nice but my mouth bled and is now very sore and swollen. Please be careful and watch what you're eating when dining here or anywhere. I reported this and showed the cashier the piece of plastic she took my number down but no one has reached out to me yet. I'm disappointed"

"The food was very good, but the queso dip was clumpy. The queso could have been better and more beer options would be nice as well. The Quesabirrias are very tasty and I highly recommend. Plenty of parking and really cool art work."

"If I could rate it a 3.5, I would. Anyway, I made a special detour to visit Taqueria El Rincon as I was in the mood for some good, authentic Mexican Food. The space is big and bright, almost too big and bright for my liking. I normally like a good hole-in-the-wall taco joint, but it was clean. On the atmosphere, I was a little taken by the music selection as it was a super religious station, not what I would have expected. (As an FYI, this didn't impact my rating, I was merely pointing out an observation.) The service staff was friendly and very nice. My only issue/concern, is that I had asked if the beans had any meat (many times refried beans have been refried in animal fat) and she thought for a minute and said no. But I wasn't entirely convinced, but ok. The chips were warm and fresh, but the salsa wasn't anything special, more like a packaged product than made in house. I had the Chile Relleno - it was presented well, everything on the plate was good, but nothing exceptional. I probably wouldn't make a special trip to go back, but if I were in the area meeting friends and they suggested the restaurant, I wouldn't say "No way! Let's go somewhere else.""

"Would like to say I eat here 24/7 haha. The best Mexican restaurant around here by FAR! The aren’t cheap on their meat like most places. Chicken is never burnt and juicy and food is always hot. If you’re in the area I highly recommend eating here. Customer service is amazing and extremely friendly. Also extremely clean."

"Growing pains are evident here and understandably so. I'll be patient for now for them to work them out. They didn't have a website or Google Maps Business location that I could find so I created this for us to help others find this place. At the time of this review they had only been open for a week. I think most of us would naturally like to compare this to Oscars but I can't. They are two separate atmospheres, with an evidently clear difference in selection, food presentation, cultural display, and tastes. I love both businesses! Taqueria has great options and seems to really lean towards thats hole in the wall food taste. We ordered the Steak Torta, Quesadillas, and it was delicious! Logistics notes (dining in) - I didn't see any trash bins and you would leave your plates at the table for staff to clean up - Self seating and they provide a number for you. They'll serve you based off that number they give you - Some equipment failures they had but they'll iron this out eventually after this launch phase completes."
