Reviews for Spain Rincon in Wharton, NJ
This place must have changed chefs, because the food is nothing like it was in the past, Mariscada tasted like Cambell soup... tomato sauce, really bad. tried to give them a chance again, but will not be going back. Read more
First let me start by saying the service was good. The waiter was attentive, and polite. Unfortunately the food itself was... really not that great. I'm Hispanic as is my wife and we love a good paella, so naturally we decided to check this place out forher birthday. She ordered paella valenciana and I ordered their steak special (porterhouse with shrimp). I asked the waiterbefore I ordered how thick the steak was and he made a gesture saying it's thick ( about an inch with his fingers). I askedbecause I know if it's a thin steak it doesn't matter what you ask for but you're going to end up getting a well done steak. Asyou can guess the steak came out and was very thin/ overcooked. I could overlook that but my rice, my wife's rice in the paella,the chicken and the lobster and scallops were all overcooked. Honestly it was kinda sad that the best part of the paella was thechorizo! Don't get me the food was still OKAY, but it was just that... Fine. And for 35/ plate I'd expect a lot more. Suckscause we really wanted to like this place too. Anyway if you're looking for really good Spanish food... I'd probably skip thisone. Read more
1 other table in the restaurant on a Thursday night at 7:30. Should have been a red flag. Clams casino came out so fast with... half raw / half burnt bacon and soggy bland breadcrumbs. Awful! Sole with garlic sauce was fishy and full of oil. Place felt oldand dirty. They need to clean up and get a new chef. Do not recommend and won?t ever go back. Oh and asked how much to add alobster tail. $50! What? ???? Read more
We ordered their garlic shrimp as an appetizer, shrimp with onions, pepper and tomato sauce, and surf & turf (lobster and filet... mignon) as entree, and tiramisu cake and flan as our dessert. They served table bread with rock hard butter! Bread paired verytastefully with garlic shrimp ???????? plus it came with 10+ shrimp. The portion size of my shrimp entree was so big that I caneasily make two more dinners out of it for both me and hubby, even after I felt like I ate shrimp from a bottomless basket! ????Hubby's surf and turf had a 8oz filet mignon, curry style 2 lobster tail, broccoli and mashed potato. We were also servedSpanish rice and very tasty fried potatoes. Both potato and rice complemented my shrimp dish really well ???????? I'm not andwill never be a steak ???? eater, but hubby said his filet was great ???? As dessert, tiramisu cake was great until we reachedthe bottom. I guess, the bottom had way too much black coffee soaking, which was too bitter for my taste. But hubby is a blackcoffee drinker, so he didn't have any problem with the bitterness. Flan was alright. Overall a good atmosphere and great food!???? Read more
The food and drinks were delicious. The staff was friendly and attentive. It was a great find as me and a friend was visiting... the town and searched for a place to eat. I had the paella and my friend had the seafood stuffed salmon (special). Both weredelicious and was served a good helping. We definitely had plenty to take home. The price we paid includes our entrees, twoappetizers, two L.I. teas each and tip. We forgot to take pics but the presentation was also beautiful. Please stop by ifyou're in the area! Read more

I've lived in Rockaway/Wharton my entire life, and I've passed by this place so many times but never stopped to go in. I decided... to go in today off whim and was completely engulfed by how gorgeous the inside looks. The staff was so friendly & welcoming Itook their recommendation because I've never had Spaniard food. I opted for the Skirt Steak & Shrimp recommendation, and it'seasily one of the best dinners I've had for a long time. Filling & tasty the perfect balance. I can't recommend it enough, and Inever leave reviews, but this one had to happen. PS. Their Sangria's is the best in town! Will definitely be stopping by often. Read more
