Great food reasonable prices made to order and very
I was in San Jose and had time to burn during the lunch hour. Decided to try Carnitas El Rincon-Alum Rock for some street tacos. Located in a strip mall with many narrow storefronts and banner signs, the restaurant is difficult to find. Look for the white metal security door. Parking is a challenge. As soon as you step in the restaurant, you are greeted with the delicious smell of carnitas. The restaurant is simple with three or four tables and a soda machine.The gal at the counter only spoke Spanish, or perhaps only chose to speak it. I was able to dust off my rusty Spanish and placed my order.The street tacos came heaped with chopped carnitas, with the traditional toppings of onion, cilantro and lime.I found the meat to be flavorful, but a bit dry. The red salsa was helpful in adding some heat and moisture.If I lived locally, I might try them again to see if they are usually more tender, but since I don't, I probably won't be back.
I ordered 1 lb of carnitas mixtas, meat was tender and juicy, too bad that is was soo salty. It ruined the whole experience. If you find the right balance of seasonings, you can have a winner. Until then, Ill skip the salt lick.
