“ My wife is from Guatemala and you always look for authentic Guatemalan restaurants. And I must say this is one of the best we have found since she's been here for 3 years.. when I drank the atole It took me back to when we were on the streets of Guatemala in the Antigua drinking it at night with an amazing atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant ”
“ I had never had Guatemalan food before and it was fabulous! The chicken was just right, beans were excellent, and homemade tortillas. We will be back for sure! ”
“ Had an amazing meal at Rinconcito Chapin! I ordered the chile rellenos, and wow—everything was packed with so much flavor. But the real star? The tortillas. So fresh, so fluffy, absolutely perfect. Loved that they also have a little panaderia and a nice selection of postres. Plus, the little gift shop section is a cool touch—lots of fun Guatemalan goodies to check out. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you’re craving authentic Guatemalan food! Great lunch special too ”

“ Great place. Came at about 6:30 for dinner and was not crowded at all. Ordered grilled chicken which came with rice, beans, salsa, salad, and 3 tortillas — good amount of food. Service was very prompt; it has my recommendation. ”
“ So we arrived at their old location off of N. Lamar; thankfully their number was on the door. They gave us directions to their new location and wow, the ambiance and space is really nice. We liked their menu options and chose their breakfast (we showed up around 1pm). Our server was friendly and we didn't have to wait long for our food. Also, we ordered tamales from here (2 dozen). They are huge tamales wrapped in banana leaves - a nice touch. We will definitely return. ”
“ I love the food, the environment and the staff. The food is so delicious and authentic. ”
