What Liza Gutierrez doesn't like about El Vicentino:
The owner mentioned that the online prices were incorrect when I called to place a pick-up order. She charged me 20% more per item. Parking is limited, with only two spots available. View all feedback. What Gabrielle Lane likes about El Vicentino:
Today I tried the chicken and cheese papusas at this restaurant, and let me tell you, they were delicious! I highly recommend this place for their papusas. I have not tried anything else on the menu yet, but I will definitely be coming back. View all feedback.

The food service was extremely poor; it was almost comical to see a bald teenager working. The restaurant is accessible for those in a wheelchair.
