They even offer some keto-friendly options, which is a great bonus. Hands down, this is some of the best Mexican food in the Palmdale area, and I highly recommend giving them a try! To start you off, they serve complimentary churritos and/or house-made tortilla chips. Their red and green salsas are both packed with flavor and are some of the best! My go-to order is the wet burrito with either asada or cabeza, but honestly, all of their proteins are delicious. Everything tastes fresh, authentic, and made with care. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, from the owners to the employees. You can tell they take pride in their food and making customers feel right at home. If you haven't tried this place yet, give it a shot--you won't regret it!

We had visited once before for dinner and loved the food, so when we needed a quick breakfast before work, we knew exactly where to go. We arrived around 9 a.m. and were greeted right away with friendly smiles. The restaurant was very clean, and we were told to sit wherever we liked. We ordered the menudo, a sopes plate with rice and beans, and a breakfast burrito. They also brought complimentary chips and salsa to the table. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The menudo was especially delicious and was served with fresh cilantro, onions, and lemons. The sopes were excellent, and every dish tasted homemade and well prepared. What really stands out about El Mora is the service. Everyone who works there is friendly, upbeat, and welcoming. Our waitress checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed, and we never felt rushed. The atmosphere was pleasant, with great music playing overhead. Although the restaurant was nearly empty when we arrived, within about 15 minutes it had filled up, which says a lot about how popular this place is. Excellent food, excellent service, and a very clean restaurant. We will definitely continue coming back whenever we're on that side of town. Highly recommended!

I guess now chips will not be brought out until an order is made. Okay fine. After we ordered we were given 2 small chip baskets and 4 salsas. We asked for more chips and were told they no longer give chip refills, we'd have to pay. Our server told us no other Mexican restaurants in the AV give chip refills, which isn't true. The chips wouldn't have been such an issue but we were only given 2 small baskets for 10 people (7 teens and 3 adults). Anywho, the experience, tension and how we were talked to just left a bad taste and made it so we don't want to go back.

The one board has a sign telling you to "Please drive to the window." Thankfully there was no one ahead of me. Since they can't even start your order until you get to the window I couldn't imagine being second or third in line as my wait, after ordering, was 10 minutes. At the window I was greeted by a very friendly older gentleman who took my order. He asked if I would like him to add some chips in. I had ordered a carne asada burrito. It was very good. In addition to the rice and beans there was lots of meat. A good facelift and fixing the ordering speaker would them up to a 5 star.
