These guys make some really good Sonoran food and this is their original location. It all started with a small Hot Dog cart outside and now they are rocking throughout the valley with several locations. Came here for the Sonoran Dogs and was not disappointed. They are made to perfection and the buns they use are delicious. It is hard not to eat at least a couple of dogs and maybe sneak down a third. Nice! They have a giant menu with tons of the standard Sonoran favorites. The salsa bar is very fresh and you can load up with as much as you want. I like the fact that the salsas have some good flavor with a few having more heat than others. Service is very friendly and on my first visit they took the extra time to explain the most popular items as well as their daily specials. The inside is also very clean and the food comes out rather quickly. Best part is that they are very close to my work. See ya there around lunchtime. I'll be the one with the big smile. ESTOY LISTO! 4.25 STARS read more

Love taco de tripa however the customer service is horrible and ladies have no professionalism.

This place has one of the best carne asada I've tasted out here in Mesa. I also had a baja shrimp which also was good. The horchata wasn't bad but I've had better read more

During my night time walks I would be enticed by an overwhelming smell full with savor coming from this restaurant. Eventually I had no other option than to succumb and place an order for a chicken quesadilla unfortunately despite the incredible smells; the serving size was a joke (I would have gotten a larger and fuller quesadilla had I gone to Taco Bell) and the price was insane! $14 for a thin quesadilla with very little in it, Taco Bell wouldn't just be cheaper but I would have gotten more for my money. You get 1/2 of what you can order at other restaurants and pay more. I enjoyed the aroma more than the food. Sadly, the food and price will discourage me from returning especially since their are other restaurants that offer more for your buck and taste incredible. read more

I love their strawberry drink, its not really agua fresca because it's a little on the thicker side, but still tasty.. I've tried their sonoran dog & it wasn't that great. It was too soggy. (Get your ass to Tucson to experience a good sonoran dog). (FYI: El Guero Canelo is amazing!) I've also tried their menudo & carne asada torta. But my favorite is the California Burrito. If your in the area & want Mexican food it's a great place to go. read more

Food is good but customer service was terrible. Before I let my kids order drinks, I asked if it was included in the kids meal, server said yes and I confirmed that printed on the kids menu, it says drinks included and lists all the drink choices. They got chocolate milk. It came and was white milk on ice. Kids didn't like it. I tried it and it was terrible. We asked for root beers for them instead, which they got. When the bill came, we were charged for 2 chocolate milks. I asked him about it and he said that in the system, there wasn't a way to enter the drink order as part of the kids meal, so had to enter it separately. I showed him on the kids menu where it says drinks included, so there has to be a way. I asked for a manager figuring they could help him on how to enter it correctly. A lady came, asked about what was going on, said let me check, and then didn't come back. I doubt she was actually a manager. He came back and argued with me some more. I gave up and handed him my credit card. When he brought the check for me to sign, it was 6 dollars more than what the ticket was for. Part of that was a 3% fee for using credit card, which is a new thing at this restaurant we have been to many times before. This was not advertised anywhere on the table or menu. But that only accounted for part of the extra. Ivtried asking the "manager" about it but she ignored me and the server insisted I only talk to him. Come to find out he added a charge for the root beers! So instead of getting drinks included with 2 kids meals, I ended up paying for 4 drinks! I would have had them get water if it wasn't included, but it was written right there in black & white. I've never had a server who wasn't willing to make it right. He even argued over whether or not the milk actually tasted bad. Like, you're welcome to try it yourself, but that's not the point. I'm a very passive and agreeable person, so for me to get upset is highly unusual. First time in my life I've asked for a manager and I can't believe she did absolutely nothing. Unfortunately, we won't be going back there if that's how it is. Also, my parents both got soup and it was barely warm. Gecko grill has the same food but with better service and ambiance. So disappointing. read more

First time coming in last night and the food was delicious. Really really good Sonoran Mexican food. The flour tortillas were amazing, soft and fresh and the red and green Chile enchiladas the best along with beef taco, beef burro and Sonoran hotdog. Place was clean and staff were pleasant and helpful. Will definitely be back! read more

I loved this restaurant during my vacation!! I ate the best Mexican hotdog, I didn't even know what a Mexican hotdog was until this visit. It was recommended, I ordered it, delicious!!! It had onions, peppers, cheese, beans and the bread was toasted. The tacos were great too, I had a fish, a steak, a shrimp and a chicken taco; all 4 tacos were good. I will say the shrimp and steak ones were the best. The orders came out fast and although the staff didn't speak English they were very accommodating when I asked questions. read more

I had the Sonoran Hot dog from here which was amazing! The customer service was also really good. The restaurant itself was very clean and the decor was modern and new. Definitely a fun place to have dinner, but worth it to just grab some take out if you're in a rush. read more

At this place they give you complementary chips and salsa while you wait for your food. It's a lot bigger than the place in Chandler. I ordered the taco toro with tongue. It wasn't as soft and melts in your mouth as I remembered it, but it was good. I kind of wished there was a salsa bar like the other place in Chandler. The atmosphere was nice and it's a good place to have a group gathering. Friendly customer service. read more

I have been waiting to visit this establishment and I finally had the opportunity today, the yelp opinions really had my curiosity on cue, well I must Say I was not disappointed by any means, the dish that I ordered came in a timely manner (6 minutes) and was pleasantly hot. I ordered the Carne Asada Burrito & Chicken Taco plate.....all I can say is GREAT.....I will come back for the Rice & Beans alone very tasty no seasonings was necessary. This establishment will be added to my GOTO list, well worth the visit, I have no complaints......OOPS the Salsa could be hotter......LoL. no one gets away that easy. read more

Great food and great service! I'm getting used to different types of Mexican food since my husband is from Mexico and I'm from Mesa and this place has wonderful variety and quality! When the food is a bit spicy for a gringa like me, the agua frescas are wonderful! read more

Everything I've ever ordered is amazing! The staff is super friendly and fast. Food is served hot and fast too! Self serve salsa bar and it's nice and cold inside on a hot day. They even pick up your trash for you! No need to clean up after yourself. It's nice not to have a trashcan in the lobby that smells bad. Go for lunch or dinner....You won't be disappointed read more

This place has such great food ! The vampiros are just delicious and they strawberry water that they have. The food will not fail here ever! However the customer service that you guys have is awful you do not feel welcomed and the girls seem to not even care about the job and it feels like they are being forced to take your order. I went to days in a row since I came into town from Cali and both days the customer service was awful. Especially the big girl with highlights in her hair working in the night time. Both days she was very rude. I hope management does something to fix her poor work ethic and attitude. It would have been 5 stars if customer service was good! read more

I'll never eat here again. The first time I ate here the food was good. The next time I went the food tasted a little weird, But I ate it anyway, which was a mistake. I got food poisoning. I thought that must have been just a one-time thing, so I have it another try, (with the same type of food, flautas de Pollo), and once again got food poisoning! I'd stay away from this restaurant if I were you. There are plenty of other places that serve good Mexican food. read more

An excellent find! Very authentic and reasonably priced. Its hard to find good Sonoran dogs in Phx, but this place nails it. Fish tacos are a must have. The carne asada was just okay. read more

go every Friday!! best Mexican food in the area! gotta love happy hour!

Me and my boyfriend have got food from here a number of times, always something different. Everything is delicious! Best torta in the area as well, i swear. From casual eats to more unique stuff like creamy chipotle shrimp, Moreno's is always so good. Great portions and prices as well. Yummmmm read more

Wow this place is nothing like the Chandler original. Tasteless food and sauces with horrible quality fatty and gristle strewn Asada. Go to the Chandler location or basically anywhere else. read more

I've been coming here for years and their hot dogs have never disappointed. I have yet to try anything else on their menu so I can't really comment on anything else but if you are looking for a good hot dog at any time of the day I highly recommend these. They're open until 1:00am during the weekend as well! read more

The Sanoran hot dog was really good. There are a lot of taco types on the menu. The special $4.99 got a Sanoran dog, fries and soda. Can't beat the price. I added a Wednesday taco special $1.25 chicken taco. They put cabbage and onion on it and the home made corn tortilla was also very good. The staff was very friendly. I liked the salsa bar and plenty of seating. I will be back for more Sanoran flavor read more

Not good at all. Rubbery hard chopped up shrimp. No bathrooms to wash your hands. Over priced. Unfiltered water. Yuck.

Their food I could perfectly purchase somewhere else for a lesser price. It is not worth the wait, as I was waiting for my order a unhappy customer walked in complaining about his order being incomplete. I got home to find that my order had also been incomplete read more

Good food in large portions and a quick, friendly staff. It may be a little mild for some tastes. My burrito was great!

Coming from a place where there is mexican food on every couple streets, I have truly missed an authentic mexican restaurant or joint. This place is legit! Good tacos, good burritos, real good non-taco bell mexican! If you want some real Mexican food, try this place out! read more

My boyfriend had one of his cravings for some Sonoran hotdogs, I'm not a fan of hot dogs AT ALL.. But it was one of those compromise while in a relationship moments so I played nice and went along. They do have a lot of food to choose from besides the hotdogs and I tried a chicken taco as well as a pork torta and both were pretty decent. I can't speak on behalf of the hotdogs but the smile on his face while slumped on the couch with his hand on his belly was a good enough indication that he was very happy and enjoyed them. read more

Supporting local business and grubbing on some seriously bomb Mexican food is what I'm all about. This place is great. Friendly service, great food, convenient location. Moreno's is my new hometown pride food truck stop because Filiberto's is overrated in my book these days. Moreno will give me my classic burro in carne asada to pollo to lengua... Check it out! This spot is a worthy Mexican spot read more

Let me start by saying I am Mexican. (This should tell u something, aaand should sum it up.) Now I have been here 3 times, had their Shrimp cocktail (twice) and it was delicious!!! Also had the sonoran hot dog and it was also delish!!! Im on my way back now to try some tacos..stay tuned... I did also try their Carne asada tacos, they were good also! This place is legit!!! Remember, If you see mexican/latin ppl in a Mexican restaurant YOU know it's Good for SURE! lol read more

We have been coming for Moreno's for years! For delicious authentic Mexican food for a good price come eat here. My favorite is the Tejano burrito with beef. It has a mild spice to it since there is a green chile with cheese in it that has so much flavor. Can't go wrong with any of the dishes. read more

Absolutely delicious and great prices! I usually get the flauta special which includes 3 flautas, refried beans, rice and a drink. My husband swears by their baja fish tacos. Every time we go it costs about $23 for the two of us. Pros: -Delicious food - recommend the flautas and baja tacos -Great prices - about $8/person -They serve margaritas and some beers Cons: -Parking lot gets kind of full, but nothing too bad We've been frequenting this place very often! read more

Moreno's is a staple in the ghetto part of Mesa. It's the type of place you go when you're craving some good, greasy Mexican food, and don't particularly mind the thought of getting mugged or having your car stolen. This place might not win awards, but in the realm of hole-in-the-wall Mexican, they are at or near the top. Of course they're known for having Sonoran dogs. Their Sonoran dogs are a reasonable facsimile of what you'd find in Tucson, but if you're expecting it to be as good as El Sinaloense Hot Dog Cart, you'll be disappointed. This is simple a satisfy-your-craving type of Sonoran dog. While I usually grab a dog or two when I'm there, where they really shine is their tacos. They have, of course, the boring carne asada, etc. that most gringos like, but they also have pretty good lengua tacos, and their tripa tacos are phenomenal (I have a very hard time convincing any of my white-bred compatriots to try the tripe tacos, but seriously, people: if you like bacon, you'll love the tripe tacos). They do have much of the standard Mexican fare... Burritos, etc. They have horchata, jamaica, etc. I usually prefer to stick with the bottled sodas: Jarritos, Manzana, and my personal favorite, the Mexican Coke in 16-oz bottles. Writing this is actually making me really crave one of those tripe tacos. read more

This is my favorite Place to get Mexican food. I usually go between the tacos or the tortas with both of them being equally delicious. I love the interior of the place and how well maintained it is. I usually get some tacos de adobada which are pretty good but are made better by their avocado sauce that they serve. Also I really like that they have a small set up where you can get various toppings for the food for example that delicious avocado sauce I mentioned as well as pickled carrots, and various types of sauces. read more

Moreno's Mexican Grill - Tacos de adobada with some avocado sauce, delicious! - Mexican Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We ordered to go orders on Friday. I personally ordered a Carne asada torta which came with fries and a limonada. The fries were soggy. The torta was okay, vegetables were fresh but the meat lacked flavor. Otherwise, it was a pretty good size. The limonada was good and refreshing. Don't rely on their online prices the actual prices are about $2-3 more dollars per item. read more

Horrible customer service. My family and I came here after a long day at work. We found a rock in the my tripa taco and the lady from kitchen was speaking with others, looking over at us not believing I just had that rock in my mouth. We will not be coming back. Rude customer service. read more

My favorite quick Mexican place in town. Super good flavors. Their taco toro is amazing! Sometimes the line can be long, but worth the wait.

Tortilla soup is amazing but some cashiers always have an attitude. At first it didn't affect me I could care less but then I gave the place more chances and nothing changed. Great place but if the service isn't pleasant and you're being degraded, how can you sit and eat in peace? Don't bother trying to use the restrooms either. I'm one person with a bad experience but I'm sure there are others like me silenced. read more

The best! By far my favorite burrito in town. The carne asada burrito here is like no other. They add pinto beans and rice, which is what sets them apart from the rest. Also the chicken tacos are awesome and my boyfriend loves the california burrito. They have a salsa bar with carrots, cucumbers, and jalapeños--green and orange salsas are amazing. Honestly I have never had an experience here where the food was not on point. My only complaint is I wish there were a closer location! Nonetheless, I do not mind making the drive to some awesome food :) moral of the story: get to morenos! read more

Delicious Mexican food and some amazing service. I would definitely come back. I ordered asada nachos
