    Breakfast is served. Verde chorizo I bought the tostada chips here as well
    Cindy CiCi L.

    Wow...I am so glad my bf found this gem of a place by accident. If you're looking to buy chorizo to bring home, this is the place. Not only the chorizo taste amazing, but the owner is such an awesome person who you can have a great conversation with. Before purchasing anything, you're able to try the different chorizo he has to offer and the cheese as well. Also, can't forget their own salsa to sample. We end up getting the medium spice chorizo because my bf can't handle spicy like I can and also got the Verde chorizo. Literally the sample had us coming back from the pumpkin patch in Irvine to make sure we buy some to bring home. Not only because we bought it for the taste, it is because the owner is so kind. I hope your business does well! And thank you for letting us know about your wife making chorizo spaghetti. Now I really want to make it and try it.

    Chorizo and Potatoes

    This place or the Santa Ana Location is my place to go for the weekend to make a delicious Chorizo breakfast or better yet some Chorizo Tacos. We love this Chorizo so much we refuse to have another brand or from other places. I always get happy to stop by and just talk to Jackie, she's the sweetest person and has very good customer service.

    Chorizo options

    Glad I found this on yelp! They have friendly service , one of my favorite cheeses queso Oaxaca not to mention a variety of Chorizo. Will definitely be coming back.

Then we unexpectedly came across this super popular restaurant! The crowd alone caught our attention, so we decided to give it a try -- and I'm glad we did. Atmosphere: The moment we walked in, the vibe immediately stood out. It has a charming vintage feel, with beautiful natural sunlight pouring in, making the whole space warm and cozy. Perfect for a relaxing weekend brunch or a casual meal with family and kids. Here are the dishes we highly recommend: Guacamole & Chips Absolutely addictive. The guacamole was fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor. We couldn't stop eating it. Steak Plate The steak was cooked perfectly tender, and the juicy corn underneath soaked up all the delicious flavors. Every bite felt satisfying. Pulled Pork Tacos Super authentic Mexican-style tacos with rich layers of flavor. The combination of refried beans and avocado sauce made them even better. A few small notes: The restaurant was extremely busy, so the staff seemed a little overwhelmed at times. Service was okay overall, but understandable considering how packed it was. Coffee lovers: Their coffee leaned a bit on the sweeter side for us, so if you prefer less sweetness, it's worth mentioning when ordering. Overall, such a fun and lively brunch spot in Old Towne OC. Definitely worth trying if you're in the area!

If you like Avila's but you haven't been to this location trust me this place is RAD. The Avila's soup is awesome, the fajitas are fantastic and the chips and salsa are always really salty and super yummy. When you visit this particular restaurant tell them Costa Mesa Dave sent you make sure you try that salad, it's really good!! Oh and by the way, parking is a little bit tough for this particular restaurant so don't be afraid to grab a spot a couplea couple blocks away.

First off, the location is beautiful, inside an old church. The service is quick and kind as well. I enjoy the food that they have here, it is honestly pretty good mexican food, nothing too crazy.

When I got home, I checked out their menu online and thought, why not, it's right around the corner, so I gave it a try. And I'm really glad I did. I've been back to this place a bunch of times since my first visit - my wife has been with me about four times now, and I've even taken my parents. I love that the menu is like a mix of all these different Latin foods, it's like a fusion. The oxtail stew is amazing, and even something simple like a quesadilla, they've got their own twist on it. The service here is always great. We've had great servers, and they're all really friendly and make sure we have everything we need. One thing that can be a bit tricky is finding the parking entrance - it's easy to miss the first time you come here. But once you know where it is, it's not a problem at all.

This…read morevisit, I ordered the 2-taco combination with carne asada, which comes with beans and rice. The asada was flavorful and well-seasoned, and the beans and rice were classic. My boyfriend went with the carnitas burrito, and it was packed with tender, juicy carnitas and generous portions all around. We also grabbed a flaky pastry in the attached bakery (I didn't catch the name), but it was perfectly buttery and light. Service is always friendly and efficient, even when they're busy, and the vibe feels very local and welcoming. If you're looking for solid Mexican food with consistency you can count on, this is a must.

The carnitas themselves are the star--tender, juicy pork that's been slow-cooked to perfection with that signature crispy edge on some pieces, delivering rich, savory flavor without being overly greasy. It's seasoned just right, with a nice balance of porky goodness and subtle spices that let the meat shine. Wrapped in a large, fresh flour tortilla (they make their own in-house, which always helps), it's stuffed generously with the classics: fluffy Mexican rice, creamy refried or whole beans (depending on your preference, but both work great), chopped onions, cilantro, and a solid dose of salsa. I went with their green salsa for a bright, tangy kick that cuts through the richness perfectly, plus a dollop of sour cream and cheese for that creamy melt. No skimping on portions here--it's hearty and filling, easily a meal that satisfies for hours. At around $10 (give or take, based on current pricing), it's a great value in the area. The burrito holds together well without falling apart mid-bite, and the overall balance of textures--tender meat, soft rice/beans, crisp onions--makes every mouthful enjoyable. If you're in the mood for classic carnitas done right in a casual, bakery-taqueria spot with great salsas and a friendly vibe, this one's definitely worth grabbing. I'd rate it 4.5 out of 5--only docking half a point because it's not reinventing the wheel, but it's executing the traditional style exceptionally well. Highly recommend if you're near 728 N Tustin St in Orange! Pair it with an horchata, yum

We had a large group of about 30 people, which is never easy for any restaurant to handle, but they accommodated us so well. They seated us at one long table so we could all sit together, talk, and share memories. It meant a lot to keep everyone connected instead of being split up. The food was excellent. I ordered the carne asada plate, and the meat was cooked to perfection -- tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. You can tell they know how to prepare their dishes with care. For dessert, I had the arroz con leche, and it was amazing. It was the perfect balance of sweetness and comfort, especially after an emotional day. The ambiance truly stood out. The hacienda-style patio with trees created such a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. The Spanish-style architecture inside, along with the fountain, made the whole experience feel warm and inviting. It has that classic, authentic charm that makes you want to stay and enjoy the moment. Most importantly, the staff was incredible. They were extremely patient, attentive, and very organized -- which is impressive considering we were a party of 30. Everything came out smoothly, and they made sure we were taken care of without making us feel rushed. If you're in Orange and looking for a place with great food, beautiful ambiance, and outstanding service, go to Moreno's. It was exactly what our family needed that day -- good food, a peaceful setting, and time together.
