Latest Reviews
Went without looking at reviews. Disappointed with food but impressed by friendly staff, though I dont think 2 waiters was enough for an impressively busy Wednesday.
We opted for the 3 course meal for £21.00 . starters of Baked aubergines with tomato and cheese as was the beans, chorizo and ham casserole were underwhelming. Main course of lemon sole was not in a parcel as stated on menu but a fillet and was soggy. The lobster, crayfish and dill sauce was ordinary. We had dessert hoping it would redeem the meal . Enjoyed the caramelised oranges in Grand Marnier. The lemon cheesecake appeared to be a concoction of whipped cream flavoured with lemon on a biscuit base and didn't impress my guest. We would have chosen Paella but was told this took an hour to prepare as this is my guest's go to choice at a Spanish restaurant in the Uk . Pity this isn't stated on the menu on the website so one could pre-order. Reading reviews since visiting, it looks like we may have made an unlucky choice of food. I think it will be a while before we return. We've been to better Spanish restaurants similarly priced.

It was a busy Saturday evening so had rather a long wait for the food but it was excellent. Great menu selection, very good house wine and friendly and helpful staff. Good value for money.

We love this Restaurant, the food is amazing and so are the staff, 5 stars !!!!
The atmosphere is special and friendly, we eat in London often and would say El Rincon would give the Spanish Restaurants there a run for their money..

My family and I know nothing about tapas. We fancied a change and decided to visit El Rincon.
The staff were incredibly helpful with suggesting dishes that complemented eachother, the tapas was prepared promptly after a generous starter of complementary bread.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is fantastic and the price is very reasonable. Cannot recommend enough

we have been to el Rincon's over the last 15 years or so once or twice a year as a treat food always great .This time waitering not good though although it is friendly family run they seem at least one waiter short and they have cut back on vegetables one bowl for 5 people with the staff running around you feel like your causing problems we were told to eat what was in the bowl before asking for more very rude and drink your pint of beer before asking for another one as they had no glasses its such a shame as this place was 5 out of 5 and still is for food.

If you want proper authentic Spanish Tapas then look no further than El Rincon. Every time I’ve visited I feel like I’m on holiday again, the food is five star as is the customer service. Lots of fish dishes which is always a hit with my family. I really can’t fault anything and feel very grateful this is one of my local restaurants.

We recently lost my Mum to cancer and this was our first choice for the wake as it was Mum & Dads favourite place to go and we knew they wouldn't let us down.
They let us have exclusive use of the restaurant for our 60 guests and the tapas was amazing and the service spot on.
They were happy for me to pay a few prior visits so I could work out where the projector with pics of Mum and laptop with Mum's favourite songs on would go, nothing was too much trouble.
Thank you for the years of great food, but special thanks for our most recent visit.

Really enjoyed our meal again at El Rincon. Carlos and his nephew are delightful people, always happy to see you. The food was excellent and even though they were extremely busy on a Wednesday night we didn't have to wait long for the food. One of the places I will return to.

Regular visited to El Rincon, didn't book, only Carlos working. Ended up with a nearly full restaurant on a Wednesday! I ordered Paella best I have ever had!! Carlos worked so hard and managed amazingly. Service was tops. Some of the best food I have tasted at El Rincon. Definitely recommend Tapas or main menu. Well done Carlos....

Been going here for many years but have not been for a while. Glad I went back, superb food and service, authentic Spanish Tapas, great choices. Good value too. Parking can be a bit tricky but there is a car park by Tattenham Corner Rail station opposite. We will be back for dinner soon!

We had the best dinner in a while at this place thanks to the staff. The food was absolutely perfect because they make the food just how you want it. It was very cosy.
I am not lying when i say that the desert was the best one i ever ate. The banana cheescake made my week. I will go home thinking about it. Two words about this place. Absolutely perfect. We will definetely return.
