The waitress explained items on the menu that we had questions on with no problem. She was very attentive and welcoming. The Food was the best and the Margarita flight was worth every penny and was completely on point! I would absolutely recommend this restaurant and can't wait to go back. Don't let the outside stop you. You will be happy you gave it a chance. The atmosphere was also very welcoming and comfortable and there were a lot of TV's everywhere so we were able to watch the game from anywhere we wanted to sit.

El Coco Loco in Modesto is such a fun hidden gem! It's tucked away in an industrial area and…read morehonestly looks more like a grocery store from the outside, so you might drive right past it. But once you walk in, it's a completely different experience! I ordered the sizzling rock with chicken, steak, shrimp, cactus, salsa, cheese, and even a little piece of chorizo. It came out sizzling and smoking, which made the presentation so fun! The flavors were delicious, and it came with rice and beans. I also tried the ginger mint drink, and it was SO refreshing! Definitely something I'd order again. The only thing that was a little off for me was the rice--it had a slight taste that I didn't love. Other than that, everything was really good. Fun tip: They also do a really cool birthday celebration! You get to wear a HUGE sombrero while they bring out a giant sparkler. Such a fun way to celebrate and make a memorable experience. Definitely a hidden gem worth checking out if you're in Modesto!

You know what I noticed? I've been here twice and I've never reviewed them. That's changing now…read more I like this place. I like the ambiance a lot actually. The decor is pretty and I like the outside seating. The service is good. The last waitress was prompt and on one occasion, I accidentally dropped my drink, and I was able to get a new drink at no extra charge. That was really nice of them. Speaking of drinks, order the agua de pepino. It's super refreshing and sweet. They rim theirs with a little bit of chamoy and Tajín, giving it a spicy taste to it. The tortillas are homemade and I've enjoyed the food. It's good.

There has been a Mexican restaurant at this location ever since I've been going to Modesto in 2008…read more This is my first time back since 2019 - is it the same place? I don't know, but it's definitely similar. Two things that were different - I used to love the chips here. This time they were really stale. We had a late lunch, around 2:30, but that doesn't explain it unless they just left them out from the morning. We've bought freshly fried tortilla chips before and they were still tasty after a few days if they were stored correctly. Not a big deal - but they used to have Jarritos and now they sell Mundet. I had an apple soda - still delicious. Food - One fellow Yelper said they loved the molcajete and described it in a way that my mouth had started watering already. Unfortunately, the waitress informed me that there is no molcajete at this location. The backup plan was the carnitas plate. Carnitas were great - nice and crispy on the outside, moist and flavorful on the inside. The corn tortillas are made fresh and that really helps make the dish. I'd recommend getting this and some guacamole on the side. The plate comes with a little, but made me crave for some more.

First off, we found out about this restaurant through social media. We knew eventually we'd want to…read moretry it. Luckily, we were by the mall and made the VERY short 10-ish minute drive. Worth it! Walked into a very quiet, but colorful restaurant with only one other patron inside. The employees were so nice. We were told to pick anywhere, we were brought menus and instantly asked if we'd like anything to drink or if we wanted to look at the menu first... We asked for suggestions and the waitress offered the types of drinks they have. She brought us chips and salsa. The chips were homemade with a perfect crunch. The salsa was fresh, chunky and not spicy. The pepino cone limo aqua Fresca was the best aqua Fresca I've EVER had. Not too sweet at all and was SO REFRESHING. We also ordered an horchata and I was told that was just as good. The food... Where to start. We ordered an empanada and some quedabirria tacos. The empanada was HUGE, deliciously filling with fresh ingredients. It had great flavor. The quesabirria tacos were probably the best we've had. You order the amount you want. They are 5.99 each and oh so delicious. The meat tasted SO FRESH and flavorful. The creamy jalapeño salsa had a NICE kick to it. All meals come with radish and pickled onions as garnish, but eating them with the meal made it even more refreshing and delicious. They need more than one location, but until then we will be back! (Luckily, I heard they do catering.)

We will definitely be back!

I visited La Morenita after a really long time to have dinner with my sister. The prices since last…read moretime I visited have really gone up a lot. We ordered cheese enchiladas and chicken fajitas this time. The service was good. The waitress checked on us. We got seated in the garden patio and it was nice there. They kept it cool. The food was okay. The fajitas were served smoking hot with side of tortillas and sour cream, pico, and guacamole only. The veggies were well grilled and overall pretty tasty. I opted to not get beans. The enchiladas were okay. I didn't like them very much last time, and still didn't like them this time, either. We ordered the churro dessert. It came served with a side of ice cream and whipped cream. It was also okay. My visit to La Morenita was better this time than the last time, but still the menu felt pricier and probably won't come back. P.S. The chips and salsa were really yummy.

Stopped in for a quick dinner to go and ordered a burrito bowl (no rice) to go. Unfortunately, what…read moreI received was basically a cup layered with black beans, grilled chicken, cheese, and a small splash of sour cream. There was no lettuce, salsa, guacamole, tomatoes, or any of the other toppings you'd expect in a burrito bowl. I'm giving it 2 stars only because the beans and chicken tasted good. However, paying $23 for a bowl this bare is hard to justify. I even asked for salsa on the side, and it wasn't included with my order. For the price, I expected a much more complete meal. Unfortunately, this experience was disappointing, and I won't be returning.
