La Morena Family Restaurant - Highly recommend. The food was fantastic and the service was amazing. This is the Fajitas Omelette with a side of pancakes.

Excellent breakfast or brunch spot! The breakfast is one of the best in town, in my opinion…read more Service was wonderful. Location is a little out of the way for us is the only reason we haven't been back yet.

I was in Sioux City on a Monday, didn't realize the Hispanic restaurant was closed on Mondays, but…read morelooking at the reviews for La Morena, I thought I would give it a try. The place looks a little dated and as others have mentioned a little like an all you can eat type place. Staff was very pleasant and attentive. Portion sizes were very generous. Unfortunately, the food taste/texture was a little off on some items. The chips and salsa were good, little bit of heat in the salsa which was nice. They also asked if I like spicy food which I replied yes, so they brought out two bottles of hotter sauce, one green, one red. The re-fried beans were ok - you could taste there was a lot of lard in them - very smooth and silky. A little off... The rice taste was fine, but the texture was different, almost like they used minute rice. A little off... I got the Diablo Burrito with Asada. The meat had a different taste. It was filled with a nice amount of meat, rice and beans. It was also smothered with a rather spicy sauce which I enjoyed. The tortilla was kinda rubbery, and at the ends with all the folds, really thick. For $12.29 this was a great value for the amount of food you get. I was ready to give a 4 or 5 star review, but then next day I got 2 emails from La Morena via Square, their credit card processor. I don't believe I selected anything when checking out to indicate that I wanted to be added to an email or birthday list, but I was added. I get enough spam on a daily basis, I don't need to get it from a restaurant that I visited and was located 90 miles from home, hence the 3 star review. I'm glad they are proud of their restaurant, but they need to understand that not everyone is as excited to hear about it. I blame Square as much as La Morena.

They still do chips and salsa at the table, even at 9 AM. My omelette was hearty and filling. The server was very friendly and made sure to keep our pitcher full. Highly recommend for brunch!!

This had always been one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The last time we went, however, we…read morehad 5 couples for a group of 10. This is a pay-at-counter after dinner place. As each couple left. They paid their checks. We happened to be the last to pay. We told the person at the register what we each had ordered. They said okay, but there's $40 left here that someone didn't pay. So we had to pay it. And I'm checking with each of the other four couples, they'd all paid for all of theirs. I don't think they were trying to scam us (probably), but there was clearly some confusion. Our friend who'd made the reservation called but no manager was available. Her call was never returned. This was AFTER one person at our table didn't get his food until after everyone else had eaten already. And another person ordered a steak burrito that had precisely two pieces of steak in it. There was a drink mix-up as well. The food was good, per usual, but unfortunately, it was such a disappointing -and unnecessarily costly- experience that Mi Fam will no longer be on our list.

Los Altos is the best Mexican food around this area. It's a bit on the pricier side but well worth…read moreit. You get what you pay for. Their meats & fish are far superior to any other Mexican restaurant I've been too. Much higher grade & quality. Their service is quick, courteous & friendly. It's very clean. It's a little loud but that's to be expected. It's a busy place. Free chips & salsa. Always a bonus! The absolute best fresh table side made guacamole anywhere that I've been. They make it right in front of you. It's absolutely delicious... I could go there just for the chips & guacamole! You can never go wrong with their steak fajitas. Again the steak is another level. The birria tacos are excellent. They have a full stacked bar. Their margaritas are great. Highly recommend.

I have liked everything I have ordered here over the 7-8 times I have been here so far. One curious thing was on our most recent visit when 2 friends and I ordered skinny margaritas: they delivered them 2/3 - 3/4 full (in short glasses) with a ton of ice. We mentioned it to our server and he had some sort of explanation that didn't really make sense, but, regardless, it seems they should do whatever it takes to give us each a full margarita. It was delicious, though!! The service has always been great. The ambience is good and the bathrooms are always really clean and well-stocked.
