El Cheapo (Rinconcito Guatemalteco)

Rinconcito Guatemalteco, 929B Liberty Street, Trenton (609) 396-8300
(Directions)

In a city that has many quality Guatemalan restaurants, Rinconcito Guatemalteco stands alone as the least expensive we’ve found. The food is quite good, and the dining area is actually charming. Portions aren’t enormous, but they’re more than adequate, especially for the money.

Besides the typical Guatemalan fare, including tacos, and various platters served with rice and beans (e.g., Carne Asada – beef; Carne Adobada – pork) Rinconcito serves pupusas, which are originally El Salvadoran.

There’s no printed menu, but much of what they serve is posted on the wall of the kitchen (which is where you enter). The dining room is off to the side.

Note the entrance to Rinconcito’s is actually off of Liberty Street, around the corner on Vroom (which isn’t even marked). From Liberty, it looks like a defunct water-ice parlor.

    LOVE this place! The pupusas are the BEST! The mixtas (pork and cheese) are my favorite in town. Their steak burritos are another favorite…well seasoned steak. Overall GREAT value for such good quality authentic tasting food. This place is a gem.
