    Moreno Mexico City Street Tacos
    Sarah O.

    We have been coming to this particular location for well over 10 years now. As you can see. They used to have a GREAT taco Tuesday special however that is not the case. I don't even know if they have any good deals anymore worth even going for. They do have great breakfast burritos one in particular i cannot remember the name but it had beans and tomatoes in it and I was blown away. Last night my husband ordered us a tacos and they take a Whole whopping 50 cents off leaving you at 3.25 a taco. When our go to (mi casita taqueria on Alma/warner) is 2.75 any day every day any time with way better chicken than morenos chicken tacos. Last night's chicken tacos i could barely even touch it was so awful. The asada was okay. Adobada had the best flavor out of the 3. But for close to 12 dollars for just my tacos seems steep when so many other places have cheaper tacos for taco Tuesday. Yeah sure prices are inflated yeah yeah yeah but that's not stopping others from The deal why not if it brings in great foot traffic but apparently this place has no problem with the steep prices. Would have been nice to have salsa too but the lady making over 20+ little things to go didn't have any care in the world for holding up the line so no salsa with my tacos.

    I've stopped in here twice now, and both times have been on a weekend morning. Each time the staff has been exceptionally on point and super friendly. All of the food I've tried has tasted great, and they even go a little extra with the presentation. I can't wait to try more items here.

    Hot Dogs

    Second time here in 3 months to have the Sonoran Hot Dogs and I have been disappointed both times. - Bun seemed to be old. It seems like they steamed it to soften it up but now it is rubbery and is getting tough as it cools. - Size seems about 25% smaller than other places. - Bacon lacks flavor. - Overall IMHO it lacks the vibrant variety of flavors I have had at other places.

    The hours

    Went here 10/30/2020 - tried to make a to go order at 11:56pm they close on Friday at 12:30am. The person that answered the phone said "can you pay over the phone because tonight we close at 12:00am" I said why no you don't it says you close at 12:30am she said yes that's only for Saturdays and Sundays .. I cancel the call I drive to this location and arrive at 12:10am on the establishment it says they close on Fridays at 12:30am me my friend and a guy are sitting outside wanting to place an order and they denied us entry this time the same woman said they close early because the owner said to close at midnight and not 12:30am .. I asked to speak to the owner she said he wasn't there I asked to speak to a manager she said he wasn't there. I asked well are the cooks still there she said yes but they packed everything up. First you wanted me to pay over the phone for a to go order because you guys closed early on Friday at 12am and are only open until 12:30am on Saturdays .. Then I arrive and now the excuse is that the owner wants to close early and no one is there to talk to . You denied 3 customers this night

    I've been coming here for years but this is the first time this place has disappointed us with their Mexican (Sonoran) hotdogs, bread was cold and hard (they are supposed to be steamed warm and fluffy) I sent one of my two hotdogs back so they could remake it and the bun was even harder than all the other buns. It will be a very long time before I return.

    Hot dogs estilo Sonora

    I was looking for a place that served Sonoran Hot dogs and came across this place. On Thursday's you get a good deal where it comes out to be about $3 per hot dog. I got full with 2 of these bad boys. A couple of things that could be better for Moreno's is probably their salsas, it tasted like it was watered down (not much spice in any of them). The actual weenie also didn't taste all that considering all the toppings included. Nonetheless it's a good spot to get pretty good priced Mexican food. My favorite highlight is probably the strawberry agua fresca they serve here

From the moment we walked in, the ambiance, customer service, and drinks were amazing. I'm a HUGE mezcal lover, and they had a great assortment of mezcals and tequilas to choose from. If that's your thing, you will definitely appreciate their drink menu! Since we were heading to a show afterward, we didn't want to get too full, so we decided to share a few appetizers instead of ordering full entrées. The portions were surprisingly generous! We tried the chicharrón with guacamole, ahi tuna tostadas, and the Aguachile ribeye. Everything was delicious, but the ribeye was definitely a favorite. We're already fans of it from their sister restaurant, Blu Seafood, so we knew we had to order it here. Just keep in mind that at Agave it's served as an appetizer, so the portion is smaller so but absolutely worth it! And of course, we couldn't leave without dessert. We finished with their tres leches cake, and OMG... absolutely amazing. The perfect ending to the night! A special shoutout to our waitress, Jazmyn. She gave us incredible service, was so kind, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. She made an already great experience even better. Great atmosphere, amazing drinks, delicious food, and outstanding service. We will DEFINITELY be back!

Both were delicious and the chips are made in house I believe. We then had the short rib Birria and man it was onolicious! The beef just fell apart and the marrow with chips was lip smacking good! It fed the both of us just right. For dessert we had the Tres Leches cake and man we loved it too. The cake was moist and sweet but the ice cream was mild so it went perfect with the cake. We were stuffed! We will definately be back again to try more dishes and we look forward to seeing Ana again!

I will say they close a little early on a Friday. Parking is a breeze in the large complimentary lot that surrounds the Mexican restaurant and bar. Ambiance (4.5/5): Trendy-looking Mexican restaurant. And a spacious one at that. Plenty of booth and table seating. We opted to sit at the bar. Pretty much the ideal restaurant experience for me. Nice without being stuffy. Service (4.5/5): Friendly service that was pretty efficient. What was awesome is they let us stay a good amount after close. Since they were cleaning up, they still had stuff to do, which allowed us to enjoy the experience without feeling rushed. Food (N/A): We had dinner prior so we were just there for drinks. They were nice enough to provide us with some free chips and salsa even though we were just having drinks. Two salsas, with one being a little too spicy for my taste. I can only handle a little kick. Good chips. I'll definitely have to come back for their food! Drinks (5/5): I appreciate it when a bar offers quality drinks that are creative. You'll find that at The Mexicano. Naturally, I went with the margarita flight which allows you to try four different frozen margs (prickly pear, lime, peach, and one more that's escaping me). And that's not all. They have a self-serve candy bar where you can add gummy bears, sour worms, and a variety of other candies to your margaritas. How cool! I've never seen anyone do this. If that wasn't enough, they have an all-day happy hour, every day of the week. I also haven't seen anything like that. Chef Joey is a genius! I'll definitely be back to enjoy the happiest of hours too.

The nachos ended up being the star of the night. They were loaded, flavorful, and very satisfying. There was plenty of food and they were more than enough for both of us to share. My husband ordered the burrito and finished it pretty quickly because it was on the smaller side. After that we both ended up just sharing the nachos and we were completely full.

Nothing was soggy and the portions held up well for delivery, which I always appreciate. The nachos were definitely the highlight and something I would absolutely order again. Next time I would actually love to stop in during the day and try it in person so we can explore more of the menu.

It was clean, the staff responded quickly to me, but I was the only person at lunchtime on the restaurant side, and there were only two people on the bar side. Despite that it was loud. They need sound attenuation, My server was prompt, and freely shared her menu favorites when I asked. Sadly I'm not really a mole fan, her recommendation, but did try the enchiladas divorciadas. First the chips and salsa... the salsa was basically puréed tomatoes. No heat at all. Just some salt. I asked for something spicier and the server found me some habanero salsa. That was tasty, but it probably had very little habanero in it. Again, no better than a low-med heat. I grew up across the southwest so to me that was disappointing. The enchiladas? I really wanted to like this place but honestly? It was unseasoned boiled and shredded chicken, wrapped in a raw / untoasted tortilla. And drowned in some that was not enchilada sauce. The red sauce tasted like tomato sauce. I'm used to red sauce being pepper based. The spicier and more roasted the better. No pepper discernible. The green sauce tasted like it had a hint of green Chiles but mostly tomatillo. Also boring but better than the red. Neither was good. I ate it, I was hungry and it wasn't greasy, but... this was a midwestern spice-hating simulacrum of an enchilada. No bueno, demasiada aburrida. So to sum it up; decent but slightly loud facility, wonderful server, and I would say forgettable food but the reality is it was unforgettably boring.

When we told the server about it, there was no apology - he actually said that is how they make it?!?!? Let me get this straight, you put choking hazard sized bones in your tacos and don't tell anyone to watch out for them? I've included pics and video so you can see what I am talking about. Tacos are my favorite food on the planet and I've had birria tacos at many, many places (including Mexico) and have never encountered multiple bones in any kind of taco for that matter. Unfortunately their carnitas tacos are dry and flavorless. The Super Taco is still pretty good (no bones), but this and our recent experiences here are making us cross this place off of our rotation going forward. Tortas, thanks for the memories, it was a helluva run, pero no mas.
