RINCON caribeno Restaurant & NightClub

This place looks somewhat dive-y from the outside, and slightly better on the inside.. It was pretty empty on a Friday night, but it was early (8 PM), so perhaps it picks up later.  I stopped in for some cheap take-out, and was so excited to try their chicken mofongo.  I called in, ordered the mofongo ($8.00) and, since their online menu doesn't show any side-dishes and the mofongo only "comes with a salad," I asked if they had a side of rice and beans.  The person on the phone said yes, and that it'd be ready in 20 minutes.
I go to pick up my order, and am shocked to receive a bill for $16.00.  Huh?  They charged me 8.00 for the mofongo, $4.00 (what?!) for white rice, and $3.50 for a small container of red beans.  I thought surely, it must be a mistake, and the rice must be something special to cost $4.00.  But no, it was literally just a styrofoam container of plain white rice.  So, $7.50 total for a side dish.  The beans were ok, not great, and the mofongo was also just ok, a bit dry, and not flavorful.  It really needs some kind of sauce to be edible.  The salad was just a bed of bagged salad fixins' with shredded cabbage, that the mofongo sat on top of.  I will say, the portion of mofongo was large, and lasted several meals, so that was something!  I don't think I'll be returning any time soon, particularly till they get their pricing sorted.

Ate at Rincon last night. Our server was very helpful and the food was great! The roast pork shoulder and rice with beans were absolutely delicious. Everyone in my party left extremely happy and satisfied. We will definitely be back.

Nice place inside. Tranforms into a small lounge on weekends. It seems that the place is frequently closed during the week. How is that a business? Various times i've called and no one answers the phone. Food is okay.
