I really love this restaurant. It's been a while since I have been, and every time I get to dine here, I remember how great it is. The restaurant is conveniently located at the corner of 38th and Grand. While there is not a parking lot, you can almost always find street parking right out front. I was absolutely delighted to discover that they have some fun non-alcoholic options, including a zero proof cava, perfect for tapas.There is something for everyone here. Vegetarians and obligate carnivores of all kinds will find several options to suit them on the menu. There are some dishes that we always order (the queso frito and piquillos among them), and today we also got a handful of other old friends--the Toledo (a must-try if you like Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, and asparagus... very refreshing!) and the pipirrana (a goat cheese croquetta served atop a lovely stacked tomato salad). We also shared two desserts--the lightest churros ever (served with an excellent cinnamon ice cream and 10/10 chocolate ganache sauce) and a beautiful crema Catalana (if you like crème brûlée, you'll like this--it's got some similarities but is definitely its own dish).Wonderful, friendly service from Ileana made for a sunny experience. It was a lovely way to spend a Saturday evening.

I went here with my wife for our anniversary. We were married in Spain so we were hoping to re-live the memory through taste. We ordered the Calamares, Paella Sevillana, Albondigas, Patatas Bravas, and Pasta Negra, along with a bottle of wine. Rinćon 38 did not disappoint! The food was great. Service was excellent, and we loved the overall look and feel of the restaurant. It was definitely the closest we've felt to Spain in Minnesota. It was a little pricey, but definitely worth it for a special occasion or if you're really craving authentic tapas. We'll definitely be making this our go-to for future anniversary dinners!

Love this neighborhood gem in South Minneapolis Recently stopped by when in the area for happy hour and it is so nice to see that some things and faces never change!Ordered a few tapas favorites such as the stuffed Piquillo peppers and the Albondigas (meatballs in a saffron tomato broth) and the Plato Iberico - the Spanish charcuterie plate 2 glasses of their house Chardonnay for $12 is a steal these days! Service is fast efficient and friendly familiar faces! Ambiance is as close to being back on vacation in Spain,cute,quaint and Spanish guitar music transports me back to SevilleFree parking on the streetCheck this place out!Wish I lived closer I would prob stop by once a week!!

Incredible food, attentive staff, and cozy atmosphere. A perfect place for a date or to celebrate a special occasion. Every dish was flavorful and filling, we had a group of 7 people and we each ordered two plates and felt full at the end of the meal! My favorites were the meatballs and the beet salad. Will definitely be back again to try more! There is street parking and the inside is not too large so make sure to get a reservation if you're going with a group!

If this is your first time trying tapas... just remember you don't need to order all your tapas at once. Savoring your tapas is all part of the quintessential dining experience. The food is absolutely amazing - everything we tasted melted in other mouths. We highly recommend the Malaga, Pasta Negro, and Toledo. Definitely a go-to place for date night or with a small group. Waiters are very attentive, and super nice atmosphere.

If you love tapas and live in Minneapolis, Rincón 38 is definitely worth trying. Food are exceptionally delicious. The Toledo, vieras, pasta negra and the Carne brava we randomly picked have satisfied both our eyes and mouth. Anything we saw on the tables next to us are different and awesome. The house sangria isn't too sweet, which is great, and highly recommended. Services and ambiance are on par with the food. It might not be best fit for large group dinner, but definitely a place I would save for the near and dear.

Food was absolutely amazing!!!Every dish we tried had more favor than the next.Service was definitely 5 star quality!!There wasn't a minute that an empty dish sat or waters were not topped off. The thriller was when they delivered my husbands dessert with a lit candle in honor of his birthday.Ambiance was quiet and calm.Highly recommend the restaurant if you want incredible food with impeccable service!!!
