Party of 5 went for a early dinner. No problem parking. Was seated right away. Chips and Salsa came out. Very good. Ordered a Bean, rice and cheese burrito, shrimp tacos and the Morenos Fiesta Salad. All dishes were very good. Very good service. Prices are very fair. Employees are very courteous. Will definitely return.
Moreno's helped host my Cousin Deanna's Baby Shower and the whole staff did a wonderful job in providing us a spaciously fun area to accomodate all our guests and build a small mountain of Nursery enhancing gifts for the upcoming Parents Deanna and Steve!! Morenos is beautifully designed with a breathtaking Patio and has a super fun and charming Indoor Cantina Cave as well! The Restaurant is adorned with lots of gorgeous cultural flavor packed Art and TVs for enjoying Futbol with Cerveza Therapy as well ;0) The Cave is big enough to host large parties without being too loud or disruptive to other Guests, and we love the Simple and Professionally Chic Laminated Banquet Fiesta Menus filled with mouth watering traditional recipes like Enchiladas, Tacos, Chile Rellenos, and Tostada Salads!! I tried the Crab Enchilada Plate and my Mom enjoyed the Chile Relleno Plate, and we were extremely grateful for the wide assortment of mood enhancing beverages as well! Mom got to savor her Signature Asian Mamita Hot Tea to settle in while I chose pink Lemonade, a Hot Cafecito, and a Mucho Sized Modelo off tap to get into my Fiesta Doctor Talk Show Host Mode haha!!! We really appreciate Morenos for being thoroughly well organized assigning so many Servers to bless our Fiesta with warm and attentively caring Todo Caballero Hospitality ;0) The Baby Shower was so much fun and everyone got to reconnect and make new Friends on the Morenos Novela Set too!! Definitely recommend Morenos for your next Family Celebration Fiesta because they understand how to run a Restaurant responsibly to help their Guests relax, have fun, bond over deliciously rica food and drinks, and make playfully deep and important memories in True Spanish Fuego Fashion!!!
Food was ok, margaritas were good, citrusy and decently strong. Ambiance is nice, we sat inside. Our service was good when they came by. The waiter tipped me off to margarita Mondays when they do 1/2 off on the margaritas all day! This is the second time coming here and I'd come back. On a scale of 1-10: Food is a 6, margaritas are an 8, service is 6 and ambiance is a 7.
We love good authentic Mexican food! Potato tacos are a must and a fun atmosphere or to get food to go. One of our first stops in California since being back. Nice big margaritas are always fun too
This place has a great outdoor setting and is great to bring the family to. The service is great and quick depending when you go. I'm sure this place gets packed on Saturdays and Sundays. The food is authentic style Mexican food. I normally like getting a drink here as they serve it In a giant glass. The food is good. It isn't bad and it isn't super great, it's just good. And for me that is ok. The price points are not bad either for a plate. I got the two taco plate with a side enchilada. If you're in the area, and haven't tried this place out, you should give it a go. You'll enjoy the outdoor seating.
Came with our friends who live near by. We live in Vegas and trusted their recommendation. Glad we did! We were a party of 12 and our server was on it!! We even had a gluten allergy and it was not a problem. The chips & salsa and drink refills were plentiful and our food came out reasonably quick for such a large party. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE absolutely lived their food. My husband and I shared a steak quesadilla and I ate one of my friends corn tortillas w a smear of all the guac & some salsa that came w the quesadilla and it was so good! Very fresh. We ordered 2 plates of churros for the table and they were a hit as well. This was one of the best Mexican restaurants we've ever been to. If you want delicious Mexican cuisine with excellent service...here ya go!
Great service from Pedro for our table and Benjamin and Arturo for the drinks! Food is amazing. This place has specials during the week like Margarita Mondays, Taco Tuesdays, wine Wednesdays.. can't go wrong with taco Tuesday's tacos stuffed with lettuce, cheese and tomatoes with either shredded beef/chicken or potato.
