I've been going to Renee's off and on since they first opened back between 2000-2002. It's the perfect hangover food for those ungodly early morning hours, better than McDonalds, Dennys or IHOP. My favorite item is the Colorado burrito. The beef can be a bit tough and chewy, and I personally don't like the large volume of beef in it. So I always do something taboo. I take it home, unroll it, collect all the meat, throw out the toughest parts, then mince the rest up pretty finely. I'll then combine the beef back with the rest of the burrito filling, skillet fry it for a couple minutes. Roll it back up in the flour tortilla, and skillet fry the burrito on each side for about 30 seconds. This may seem odd, but it takes any issues the Colorado burrito has, and turns it from a 7/10 to a 10/10. Very much worth 10 minutes of my time. read more

They give you a taco' worth of filling in a burrito. It's Hot Gah-bidge. It tastes great and all but c'mon man. read more

Well, for one my husband's order was completely wrong and the rancheros were absolutely disgusting read more

The breakfast burrito is absolutely incredible! You will not be disappointed if you order it.

The food was cold and no flavor I was hoping to get something really good, but instead i got something. I regret to eat. The waitress kept leaving back-and-forth. She was even desing on their food. read more

Amazing food, and nice big servings. I love this place. And yes about their food is very very good. It's a bit pricey....but you do get your moneys worth. read more

Service was terrible. The girl at the window was snippy and unfriendly. She also put my tacos in so they were soggy.

Used to be a great place to grab and go! Now another example of good, high and higher prices.

Found apiece of metal in my Carne asade burrito.... read more

Carne asada was some of the worst meat I have ever had. It was flavorless, and the beef was over cooked and tasted like I was chewing rubber. read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The food is really good and the service is great!! Went a couple weeks ago and have been back 3 times since. Twice in one week lol! read more

Food was great and so was service. Authentic Mexican food!!! Place reminds me of one of our favorite "fast food" Mexican places back home

Not open when it says it's open. Went in middle of the night as it advertised to be open super later, however it wasn't so I ended up at road runners instead which was open read more

Food is good and fairly priced. Had the chimichanga. I just wish they had vegetarian beans.

Drive through service was top notch and fast as usual. Colorado Burrito and the chorizo, egg, and cheese burrito are my favorites. The green sauce is the best but the red sauce will light you up. read more

Update: I have been coming here for over 2 years now and never had an issue up until the past 3 or 4 months. Out of the 6 or so times that I came here my order was only right twice. Very disappointed that I have to check my food every time to make sure its correct. read more

Ordered: Carne Asada Burrito + Adobada taco Price: $6.82 Ambiance: Pretty standard fast-food joint but clean. Staff was very friendly, including the kids translating for the cashier lady that took my order. Food: The carne asada burrito was like the ones I love in California, no rice or beans, just tender carne asada with nice creamy guacamole and a little salsa fresca. The meat was properly salted and with no gristle. The adobada taco was equally delightful, a single corn tortilla coated with guacamole, salsa fresca, and heavily-loaded with wonderfully-spiced pieces of pork. This is the most flavorful adobada i've found in the midwest, so if you've never tried it, this would be the place to give it a try! Open 24, affordable, and tasty = best mexican food i've had in Wichita to date! read more

Two stars only because it's open 24/7. Trashy service. Dude who works late nights on the weekends hates his job, doesn't ask you if you want salsa or give you a straw with your drink ask him if they have flan, "no" every time. Pull up to the squawk-box, and they're annoyed. The "guacamole" is basically just green sour cream. Wtf. Lazy. read more

We didn't stay. They wouldn't take the coupon. The girl said manager said not to take any coupons, so we left. What is the point of having coupons to encourage business, only to discourage it when you arrive with a coupon, expecting it to be honored? That isn't very good business practice. read more

It's pretty good, I've only had 1 issue the whole time I've been going there and it's just when they forget something like a drink or burrito. I always make sure I got everything but they only forgot my drink once. Staff really isn't talkative but they've never been mean or disrespectful to me. read more

horrible customer service. I ordered burritos for break. Wasted all of break to say there systems were down and wouldn't except card. I ordered for my shop. Instead of letting me come back and pay for them they would rather let go to waste. Not the first time I've had trouble with there customer service and bad attitudes. There are plenty of better Mexican fast food then this. tacos Lopez is way better quality in food then Renee's by far for anyone wondering. read more

the food and place was just nasty . food was sooooo greasy and taco meat was boiled and so nasty

I like to go for the breakfast burritos. Now this big ol' boys and gonna make your toes curl, but they are definitely worth the money. They come with a red and a green sauce and I like to mix them like it's Christmas morning. But like I said they are big ol' boys so be prepared to party. I eat em in one setting because like my wife likes to say I just don't know when to quit. But if you have self control you could probably make two meals out of them. Or at least 1 in a snack. read more

Usually wack i think i got food poisoning not sure tho but the burrito had chewy meat i was grossed out.

I love this place! I probably should have tried more menu items after eating here a million times, but I love my "usual" so much, I just keep ordering it. I get the Supreme Quesadilla and the Carnitas Burrito and make 2-3 meals out of it. My favorite thing about this place is the flour tortillas...they are thin, huge and amazing! I could put shaved car tire in one and be happy eating it. You can't get better quick Mexican food for these prices and be happier. This place makes me happy :) read more

One of my go to places for carne asada tacos! There are was a point where I came here 4 times in one week and didn't even feel bad about it haha I highly recommend trying any of their breakfast burritos, tacos, and tortas!!! Another nice thing about Rene's is that it's open 24 hours. read more

Every time i come here they always seem to fuck up my order even when I read it back several times. i asked 3 times for queso on my BEAN BURRITO and they gave me a side of beans and rice, no queso. i also asked for a quesadilla add rice, extra cheese and it was a tortilla filled with rice. every time i come here i am very disappointed. they also burn my food and/or give me the wrong shit i asked for. i would Prefer Alejandro's for anyone that wants to "try Renes" #shutrenesdown read more

Another sorry excuse for a Mexican restaurant. This is the second one I've hit this week and they added a sprinkle of their secret ingredient to my meal "HAIR". They swapped it out with all their faces down and damn near half the amount of food I got before read more

Rene's Restaurant - a plate of meat and vegetables - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

What is there to say about Rene's? My dear Rene's. I always give a dumbfounded look when someone tells me they have never been to nor heard of my little diamond on the rough.I first discovered Rene's years ago, when I live just across the highway. Like many, I started with the Colorado, a burrito of cane asada and copious amounts of cheese. Literally the size of your forearm, it was the perfect end to a night of drinking and debauchery. Eventually I grew to try the super nachos (still a favorite of mine), the adobado tacos (to die for), and the tamales (mouthwatering). No longer do I only visit in the shadows of night. Its nice to go when there aren't droves of drunk people heading home from the bars. Make sure you try the breakfast choices too. The bacon - egg burrito pretty fulfilling too. They are open 24/7 (less Christmas), so you have no excuse not to go. You're welcome. read more

Driving past Rene's all the years gave me the impression they were a fast food place. Probably because it says so on their sign. But it's not the fast food Mexican like Taco Pronto or Taco Shop or Taco Bell; it's just a 24/7 taqueria, which are inherently quick through design. Upon opening my takeout container, I was surprised to see my adovada, carne asada, and carnitas tacos a bit more colorful than I was expecting thanks to hefty helpings of pico de gallo and guacamole smeared between each tortilla. Better yet, all of the meat got real nice and comfortable with the grill. My al pastor meat* was very nicely browned on their sides, as were the carnitas and asada. Flavors were deep, rich, and punchy for all except the carne asada, which was a little bland and a little chewy. With as much food as was packed into each of those tortillas, it's easy to see why this is such a popular late night drunk location. *I know I said I ordered adovada, but given the final product, the lack of an al pastor item on the menu, and the relative difficulty with finding carne adovada in Wichita, I think it's just a difference in naming conventions. Something that could be applied to a lot of Mexican restaurants around here, I bet, since I don't see most of them roasting anything on a spit in the classic al pastor style. I equate Rene's as the west side's version of Alejandro's and maybe in the same category of 24/7 Mexican as Abelardo's, but Rene's blows them both out of the water. read more

Great food. Big tacos for two bucks each. The adobado tacos are incredible with so much flavor. They made me visit two days in a row. The burritos are equally great. I loved the salsa bar. It reminded me of a taqueria I used to frequent in San Antonio a few years ago. The service can be hit or miss depending on who's behind the counter. Like another reviewer said, this place is definitely a gem. I hope this place stays open, 'cause it's worth the drive from the east side of Wichita. read more

My Husband had eaten here with a guy from work and came home raving about their tacos. We decided to go and get a variety of their items to bring home and make our own Margaritas. We got 2 Carne Asada Tacos, 2 Carnitas Tacos, 2 Tamales, their # 12 Relleno Plate, 1 'Colorado' Burrito Smothered (because so many Reviewers had recommended it) and a Side Order of their 'Hot & Spicy' Carrots. We figured we could eat both Lunch & Dinner off of this variety. Hubby picked out a Movie and made Margaritas, while I selected a variety to test (and made Puppy plates). Popped open those 'Take Home' Boxes and I picked a Carnitas Taco, one of the Rellenos, about 1/6th of the Burrito and a Tablespoon of their Refried Beans that came with the Relleno Plate. Figured that we give me a good idea of what to order next time. I passed on the Tamales because they are more my Husband's thing AND they looked dried out. The Carnitas was Awesome! I also thought the Relleno was pretty good too!! I liked the texture of their beans. My few first bites of the Burrito I liked and then hit a pile of french fried potatoes. Hubby said that the Tamale was very dried out and that he wouldn't order them again. He liked the Burrito and got another slice of it for about 1/3 total. He LOVED the Carnitas Taco. The 'Hot & Spicy' Carrots weren't in our order and it was too far to try and retrieve. So we had 2 Carne Asada Tacos, 1 Relleno and it's remaining Rice & Beans, about bout 1/3 of a Burrito left for dinner. And a Tamale (that no one wanted). The reasons that I gave this a 4 instead of a 5 -- parking is a bit of a challenge (although they have a 'Drive-Thru'), the missing Carrots (which I was really looking forward to) and the Tamales. I would definitely go back. I intend to order their Carnitas Burrito 'Smothered' (Green Chile Sauce & Cheese) and probably a Side Order of Beans -- and I will attempt to get those Carrots again :) read more

I love this place it has awsome chorizo burritos and great tacos. But sometimes if it's late they run out of chorizo. The people are nice. And there chorizo has a lot of flavor. And if you like spicy they got you they have sauces for any plate. read more

All the ambience and decor of a bus station but that's not why you come here ...awesome cheap food. ..awesome fast ...the mainstay is the Carne Asada Burrito but as my trust of this place has grown ( and my tetanus booster has been updated) I have tried most of the menu and can happily report that I didn't sustain ANY injuries...this place is not just for late night alcohol induced stupor any more...tried the Hot carrots as they are great...don't bring a first date unless you have already roofied her and just really don't care. .. read more

After several years of driving by and wondering, I finally stopped in and was greatly underwhelmed. I ordered the #2 combo (taco and enchilada) along with a side of guac and sour cream. The rice was fine and the beans were okay, but bland. The taco shell was the best part of the meal while the meat itself was just all right. My disappointment mostly stemmed from the absurdly runny sour cream, guac and salsas. I seriously could have drank them. The two salsas I picked up were basically tasteless except for the burning sensation they produced on my tongue. read more

I'm new to eating at Rene's- tonight was my second visit. I've only ordered the super nachos with beans instead of meat, and both times it was amazing. I'm used to eating at well known restaurants but my sister talked me into eating here and I'm glad she did! Plus they're open 24 hours! read more

Every time my family and I come to this this restaurant. The employees are always so rude. Never get anything right then have an attitude when I ask for them to fix it. Sadly I won't be coming back to my once was my favorite restaurant. read more

Ordered a Colorado burrito with extra sour cream, my go to, drive 20 minutes all the way home just to find out it had no sour cream, which is $1.50 up charge, and almost no steak either. Basically paid $7 for "potatoes" and a bit of "Mexican salsa" and cheese wrapped up in a tortilla. Looks like I'll have to cross this joint off my list of choices for dinner sadly. read more

Horrible place. Charged me $1.50 to add potatoes to my breakfast burrito and they gave me FRENCH FRIES
