This is truly gourmet food! And super nice people. Pupusas were so savory with their elevated tomato sauce and the perfect lightly pickled slaw as a side. We also had the gnocchi in a pesto crema sauce with perfectly cooked shrimp and veggies. This woman is an excellent chef. Best food truck I've ever eaten at. Wow! read more

With such glowing reviews, we just had to stop by. This food truck with a covered eating area is located in a gravel parking lot with a portable toilet in the back area. Lots of parking. The owner MOREL, ran the whole operation. Very friendly. Truck and neighboring dining area looks clean. The rockfish taco plate was neat and filled with succulent fish as the corn tortilla could hold. The avocado sauce was generous and creamy delicious. Also, the radishes were very mild. Let's talk about the creamy wild mushroom pasta. This is like a top-notch fancy mushroom cream pasta dish served at a fancy French restaurant. Just sprinkle some chopped up parsley to make it your own. Morel's morel mushroom had a bit of a bitterness to it that lent itself well with the white sauce. Sauce was not over garlicky, salty or oily/buttery. A special and delectable mushroom menagerie, a departure from the usual button shrooms. Soda served in bottles. read more

Morels - Three kinds of mushrooms! - Food Trucks Near Me - Newport, Oregon

Morels is a food truck in Newport with a wide range of dishes. I ordered fish and chips, while my friends got pasta meals. The food was prepared quickly, and we got to enjoy our meals on picnic tables, conveniently located next to the food truck. We were all impressed by not only the quality of the food, but also the size of the portions, particularly considering the low cost of the meals. If I find myself in Newport again, I'd be sure to stop by Morels! read more

Very sad to drive 25 minutes here only to discover the Yelp hours are wrong. They are closed on Sundays

Morels has been our favorite little food truck on the coast since we first had their food at the farmers market. In all the years since we started visiting Newport, we had never found such good food. Everything has a homemade feeling that is sure to leave you content and comforted. The tamales are my absolute. Service is extremely speedy and friendly. The woman who works there recognized me today from a year ago. The ambiance is laidback, a little table under a tent so you can choose to stay a while or take food home. Spread the word on this place, they deserve all the big crowds. read more

We've been driving past this food truck for years and finally gave it a try. No formal parking, just try to find a spot in the small lot in front. Nice menu of Central American staples, pastas and local fish and chips/tacos. Service was friendly and efficient. There's a room to the side of the food truck with a few tables. Prices are reasonable. The food was excellent but gave it a 4 stars mostly over personal preferences. We ordered the pupusas, chicken tamales and potato empanadas. The exterior of the pupusa was perfect but the pork and cheese inside seemed mostly lost and overwhelmed by the beans. The chicken tamale also had beans in it, very different than we're used to but added nice moisture to what can be a dry dish. The exterior of the empanada was perfect but the potatoes inside were a bit bland. read more

Great food. The rockfish tacos were amazing; we came back twice to eat them again. The tamales were good but not necessarily what you expect with tamales. Highly recommended spot. read more

I ate at this food truck while passing through town on vacation. I found it on Yelp. Get the shrimp and gnocchi. Worth $22 all day. (It's their most expensive item on the menu.) You will not be disappointed. One of the best meals I've had in a while. Incredible unique pesto sauce. Gnocchi texture was heaven. Shrimp was good. I ate every bite. Overall 10/10 dish. I had the pupusa too. Also delish! $7 and a large portion. The hot sauce on the side with the pupusa was a little hot for my personal taste but overall was delish. I hope this place sticks around for many years to come. I'll be back! The food is great quality. If you like supporting small local businesses, your money will be well spent here! Friendly service too. They brought our food to our car when it was done. read more

The food is fresh and tasty. The potato empenadas and fish tacos were awesome! Love the flavor of the ceviche but the fish pieces were too large to eat easily with chips. The homemade chips are to die for. Hoping that it was a one off that the fish pieces weren't cut smaller. We will definitely be back! read more

Three of four of us could not eat our meal. It was a strange collaboration of unidentifiable protein, strange sauces, and mushy flavors. Two of our meals appeared to provide hot dogs sliced up as the meat. I would not recommend. Sorry for the negative review, but we were disappointed. read more

Great food well worth the price. We stopped by for lunch based upon the reviews and were not disappointed. We had Tamales and Fish tacos. Both were excellent. The Tamales were honestly the best I've ever eaten and from what I could determine were authentic Mexican style Tamales. Try this place and definitely try the tamales. read more

Was looking for a great place for lunch having struck out on two selections that were closed. After reading the review for Morels I noticed they has ceviche so I sought them out. Well, I'm sometimes skeptical of food trucks. But I looked in this place and it is spotless. Didn't hesitate for a minute on ordering the fish ceviche and added some fried plantain. they told me it would take 10 minutes looked across the parking lot identified my vehicle and said they'd bring it to me when it was ready. Hardly proactive service like that in a sit down restaurant. read more

Stopped in for a snack of fish tacos with my daughter and her bf... chef was very nice and quickly got our food out to us in the cabana...very fresh and tasty...will definitely come again and try the rest of his menu. read more

This is the best food truck in Newport in my opinion! Excellent fresh options for food selection! I went with the shrimp gnocchi and it was the best pasta with fresh broccoli, carrots, shrimp, gnocchi, and to die for sauce! Well worth the money and enough to allot between 2 people. Highly recommend! Service was great and food came out in a timely manner. They have picnic tables with a covered area to eat with potter potty. read more

Ridiculously great food. Food took a while to prep but it was worth the wait. Pupusas were my favorite, but my husband swears by the ceviche. read more

Ordered the rock fish tacos, so good! 3 generous tacos with avocado sauce and delicious red salsa. Definitely some of the best food I've had on the Oregon Coast. And I've been all the way up to Astoria and down to Gold Beach (and back and forth) eating along the way over the past 15 years. I've tried virtually every place and this is top 5. read more

Amazing and flavorful food. My wife and I got the pasta mixta, seafood pasta and fish ceviche which were all flavorful and plentiful. Service was friendly and fast for a one man operation when we were there. We'll definitely be back for more dishes. read more

This food truck is excellent! The food is high-quality elevated food. Seriously. The reason there's not a line all the way down the street is the title of the food truck. For 2 months, I thought they sold mushrooms, and then when I heard they sold food, I assumed it was all mushrooms. Nope. There are so many choices. The tamales are excellent. They have the traditional one green olive, and I hate green olives. Guess what, I just take it out. The masa is soft, and the filling is the best. The pasta and sauces rival any sit-down restaurant. Gosh, this place is good. The prices are higher than you would expect, but I think they are worth every penny. And they have specials that are always amazing. You won't regret stooping and eating here. Promise. read more

I ordered 2 tamales: 1 chicken and 1 pork. They were very delicious!! I love eating the steamed masa and there was lots of that for me. There was also a very generous portion of chunks of meat in each. I was concerned the spicy tomato sauce would be too hot for me. It wasn't. I enjoyed dipping the tamale bite into it. It was a new discovery to find a green olive cooked inside the center of each tamale. There were also several plumped, from being steamed, raisins sprinkled on top of each. I definitely recommend the tamales!! I'd order them again!! I also got a pupusa. I was too full for that but in case you don't know, like me, what a pupusa is. I was told it's a mixture of beans and cheese sandwiched in between 2 layers of tortilla then fried on a griddle. Each item was served with a pickled slaw. For my liking, the slaw needed more pickling sauce. I also received a spicy tomato sauce with each. read more

Morels - 10/24: this is the food truck you are looking for. There are 2 at this location. The other is a taqueria. They look similar. - Food Trucks Near Me - Newport, Oregon

We have stopped two times so far. Fish tacos first time so very good and messy. Fish and chips and wild mushrooms chicken, shrimp and pasta again outstanding. Will be going back often. read more

The pupusas and tamales were delicious. You could tell the food was made with quality ingredients and care. The sauce and slaw were very fresh and everything was well balanced. Will definitely be back. read more

MORELS is a wonderful food truck. I tried the chicken tamales and they were perfectly made, ready quite quickly and I will be back to sample other offerings. On a higher level than your usual fare and a bit more expensive for the more complex items, but sure is tempting to try them. The menu is clearly printed and easy to decipher as well. read more

I stopped by a few days ago and got ripped big time 42 bucks for some 3 month old chips and nasty ceviche, the other thing was pesto chicken and pasta through everything away there was enough pesto for about 25 orders on just my one ,gross read more

This place should have people lined up around the block! I just had their rockfish tacos and I have to say they are the best in town. I think they need to change their sign so that everyone understands they are not selling morel mushrooms. Even if they added the word "restaurant" after Morels. Anyway, I will tell everyone I know to go there and I will definitely be back! read more
