The Story
A corner of Mexico in the heart of Miami
There are restaurants you eat at, and restaurants that feel like someone's kitchen. Mi Rinconcito Mexicano has always been the latter—a place where the salsa is made that morning, the tortillas pressed to order, and the queso fundido arrives still bubbling in its cast-iron skillet.
Since 2005, this unassuming storefront on Calle Ocho has been serving the kind of food that makes Mexican expats close their eyes mid-bite. The gorditas have that perfect crisp. The pozole tastes like Sunday at abuela's. The mole is the real thing—twenty-something ingredients, hours of patience.
