    Edgar ..

    I honestly can't say enough good things about this Restaurant as soon as you walk in. You're greeted. as you sit down. You're giving a basket of fresh chips and authentic salsa. I've been coming here quite a few times a month , I am a bit obsessed with the food that they serve. Even their aguas frescas are bomb. Unlike other locations where 90% It's either powder or syrup here, they make everything from scratch. So if you're ordering horchata, it's made in small batches fresh from scratch . If you're ordering Jamaica. It's an actual flower, huge difference in taste. If you're tired of going to spots wear, it's all bougie. Food Looks good. But taste like crap. Then you have to try the food here. I swear , you will love the food. And if you happen, not to, then, you might have to get your taste buds checked. This place is 100% Edgar approved real authentic Mexican food made from scratch!!!

    Love coming here for the asada gorditas and pozole those are my go to items. Huevos con chorizo is good too.

    Bean sope

    We went back last weekend hoping for a better experience. We've eaten here before, and while those visits weren't amazing, they were good enough to give it another shot. The food is definitely authentic, but unfortunately this time around the experience fell short. The restaurant looks very run down--peeling paint, dents in the drywall, and scraped walls. The lack of upkeep really affects the atmosphere and makes you wonder about the rest of the operation. A little care and maintenance would make a big difference. We ordered three bean sopes and one asada taco and waited 55 minutes for our food. One of the sopes was incorrect, and throughout the entire wait, no one came by to check on us. This review isn't meant to bash the place, but to give others a heads-up and hopefully bring awareness to what's going on. There's potential here, but improvements are definitely needed.

    Hidden Gem. One of my good friends recommended me this spot and everything was amazing. The service was amazing. The food was great. I would recommend the quesadilla de carnitas. This is not your traditional quesadilla. Sopes de asada spot on amazing. The Asada de torta also highly recommend. We ordered tostada de tinga this one was good but probably would stick to the other food. They provide you with red and green sauce at the table and i recommend the green sauce especially for those who don't like spicy. I'm definitely coming back.

    the food was so delicious and tasted so good. i love the music they play and the server was extremely kind. the service was fast and the place was clean :-)

    The food was AMAZING!!!!!!! The food taste as if I was eating in Mexico! I had the pambazo and a chicharon quesadilla and it was 10 out of 10. The waitresses were very attentive and fast. I will be definitely coming back!

    The food is great. Their tortillas are very fresh! The service is good. They are very nice, attend and helpful. The ambiance has that Mexican feel to it. Pricing is reasonable but the menus still don't match the actual prices.

    Honestly the food is great, the service sucks, the older ladies are quite rude and not very welcoming,, this is my second time here. I had street tacos the first time and they were really good.

The meal started off strong with their chips and salsa--super fresh and flavorful. For my entrée, I had the chicken fajitas. While they were cooked properly, I wish they had a bit more seasoning to really bring out the flavor. My wife had the enchiladas divorciadas, which were beautifully presented, but unfortunately, the filling was a bit cool. She probably should have sent it back, but since we were in a hurry, we didn't bother. On the positive side, my daughter had the carne asada burrito, and she said it was excellent. Service started off great with our younger male waiter being very attentive at first, but it slowed down significantly as our meal went on. By the end of our visit, I actually had to go up to the register to ask to pay. It was lunch time, and it wasn't that busy, so this felt a bit out of the ordinary. Despite the hiccups, I'm willing to give Morena's Mexican Cuisine another try, as it may have just been an off day. The chips and salsa, along with my daughter's burrito, showed that they definitely have what it takes to impress. I'll reserve final judgment after my next visit!

I found out about it through my cousin, who's a UCR alum, and I'm really glad I finally got to try it. The staff were super nice and attentive, constantly coming by our table to check if we needed more water, tortillas, or anything else we might want. Even with how busy it was, they still made sure everyone was taken care of, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was packed, and it actually surprised me because I don't usually see that many people at restaurants in Riverside. The energy inside felt lively but still comfortable. One of my favorite parts was the fresh tortillas. They come out hot and fresh from the oven, and you can literally watch them being made right in front of you, which made it even better. And the best part is they're free. We ordered the carne fajitas and chile relleno. The fajitas were incredible, the meat was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, with that perfect smoky sear that comes from being cooked fresh on a hot skillet. Everything came out sizzling and stayed flavorful with every bite. The chile relleno was also really good, with a nice balance of savory and slightly creamy filling that paired well with the sauce. It was actually my first time trying fajitas, and I can confidently say I'll be ordering them again the next time I come back. I definitely plan on returning while I'm still at UCR to make up for all the years I didn't know this place existed.

Their Mojarra for one, is amazing with some corn tortillas, beans and rice, and lettuce. The lime garlicky sauce on that one, is what I've been dreaming of. It was THE star of the show. And we also got their wet supreme burrito mojado, with the mole sauce all over it Also tried their agua fresca, loved the cucumber and lime flavor! Great size for two to share, and we had a blast just eating and enjoying the sights laid out to see. Their pickled onions got a spicy kick to it! I loved the added crunch instead of just having the typical hot salsa. Service was great, with the waiters and waitresses checking in on us every now and then, and I liked that we pay first then eat, so we just leave after we're done! Excellent experience as the weather was perfect too, the outdoor seating has some mosquitoes but be sure to go when it's not molting hot outside!

The sauce was creamier than I am used to, wasn't a fan. Staff was overall very kind and service was quick for being such a big place, maybe a little too quick though.
