A lovely family run restaurant with amazing food. We had tapas which was served quickly and tasted amazing. Kudos to the owner's nephew who was learning the ropes and doing an excellent job. We were made to feel at home from start to finish. We will definitely be back ð

I have reviewed this restaurant before but am reviewing again as prompted by Trip Advisor.
My earlier remarks still stand in that it is a very good place to eat Spanish style food and parking is easy. They are very friendly but on the two times we have been again, there were problems.The service was painfully slow and added to that people who came in after us were served first, so that we waited 15 minutes before even being offered a menu and some bread. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal but my partner had whitebait which she felt had been cooked in stale oil as it had a funny taste(or her taste buds were playing up!!!) I am reluctant to complain as I think she was unlucky with the whitebait as I have no complaint at all about the food I had and would certainly go again albeit she won’t(see last paragraphs) The second problem for her was the dessert which was listed as lemon sponge and I have to agree that there was no lemon flavour.
I mentioned the problems when I paid the bill but sadly no compensation or apology was offered.. It would have been good customer service to allow a discount or offer a percentage off a future meal rather than lose customers. The slowness of service and how the manager failed to respond to the issues raised were my only gripes about this otherwise excellent restaurant.

Excellent food. Very welcoming. There is a menu & a tapas menu. We went for tapas. The tapas menu is not too large & quite honestly everything we had was excellent.

We booked this for a special family birthday last week, we originally tried to book for 7:30pm to be told they couldn't fit us is. The restaurant was less than 50% full for the whole time (nearly 3 hours) we were there, so unsure as to what their reasoning was.
When we arrived, we were given two menus for a party of 4 to be told we would get more when they came available and we heard this being said to another table. Clearly there are only 6 or so menus for a restaurant of about 30 seats. The menu was good, however to note there are two menus. One for Monday to Thursday and Monday to Friday.
The service was quite slow and once a table of two (blonde women) were seated near to us we got very little attention. Not once were we asked if our food was okay, and being honest it wasn't that great. We tried to get their attention a number of times for another drink but with no luck. However the table near to use were being attended to frequently, offered free drinks, menu recommendations and it was clear the waiter thought he was onto a good thing a making a bit of a fool of himself flirting with them continuously, even telling them he put his Spanish accent on.
Overall, this was a disappointing meal both for the food and the restaurant with a rather large bill for what we got. My parents used to come here often and raved about it, but we will not be returning.

Me and my partner regularly visit restaurants around the area, and El Rincon goes down as one of my favourites. The tapas was stunning and the service was very good. I highly recommend this to everyone!

As visitors from the north we Let Tripadvisor reviews be our guide and a good move it was. We visited on a Thursday night and rocked up without a reservation - not recommended at the weekend.
We were early birds and it’s fair to say the temperature inside matched the bleak weather outside, however the management had placed fan heaters around and with the influx of Customers the place soon warmed up.
There is a good and varied A la Carte menu, but we opted for the variety offered by the Tapas menu. All the food was well prepared, beautifully cooked and presented, service was excellent. Unusually for Tapas all the dishes were delivered together which meant that things were getting cold towards the end.
I would definitely recommend.

Very friendly staff providing good range of mainly Spanish food at reasonable prices although the wine could be more attractively priced. Menu is a bit limited but good. the liver melted in your mouth and is a a signature dish,

This resturant has long been a family favourite and it never fails to deliver. Six of us went for dinner on a saturday evening and it was faultless as usual. It was the first time we've all eaten from the A la carte menu, rather than ordering tapas, and everyone had a truly delicious meal. The house red is very nice and good value and the service was great throughout. We'll be back for sure!

We have been coming here for over 15 years and now that we live in America we always make sure to visit. The food is fantastic with home made deserts to die for! Thanks to Joe, Conchita and Roberto for always ensuring we have a wonderful time. See you next year!

Joined our granddaughter for her 17th birthday at El Rincon tapas restaurant at Tattenham Corner .Epsom
Bright airy dining area seating 6 was comfortable .The owner was very attentive explaining in detail content and cooking details on the menu .On suggestion we ordered2-3 dishes each on reflection I would have preferred to concentrate on smaller number as the table was crowded but easily accessible to the dishes.The table inc two chef suggestion which were very special and delicious .
Next time I will be leaving all choices to the excellent chefThe night concluded with a cake and a complete Spanish choir of El Rincon staff
Many thanks from a proud Grandad ...see you soon

Visited restaurant with local friends on their recommendation. Excellent food (tapas), very good service and reasonably priced. As many other reviews would certainly return & recommend well worth a visit.

Visited for lunch with family. The service was good, the food okay for tapas but portions were very small to say the least and somewhat overpriced....nearly nine pounds for three anorexic butterfly prawns. Nice enough meal but not value for money.
