    Breakfast chorizo plate.  Try the potato tacos! Coffee is hot and good.
    Oliver R.

    Very clean restaurant. Colors are smart and not LOUD. And, so is music is quiet and pleasant. TV plays low. Coffee is amazing! Try the potatoes tacos! Breakfast churizo plate is best!!! $3 cheaper than Brandon's next door in same parking lot. Service is attentive, too.

    The women working the restaurant are welcoming and warm! The burrito was served fresh and seasoned so well! The first order of chips is complimentary then an additional $1 for each serving. My friend said the beef tacos weren't anything special but the salsa was very good!

    Walking in we noticed it was very clean. Menu pictures are posted on the wall and they also have digital screen menus. Ordered at the counter then found our seats. There's a good amount of tables for small or larger groups. Right off Magnolia Inside a little strip of eateries. Parking may be limited during rush hours. You can order ahead for pick up if you're pressed for time. Good service. The burritos we had were satisfactory. The red salsa had a nice spice I enjoyed it. Meal comes with one salsa. There's an extra charge for another. On the other hand the verde sauce tasted similar to canned so stick to the red it's delicious.

    Chicken, shredded beef and potato tacos.

    Great service, yummy food, nice airy place. Love this place! Lady was very nice and quick. Clean restaurant!

    Burrito- al pastor
    Jessica Y.

    My friends live nearby and are HUGE fans of this establishment. They are both regulars and the employees recognize them. It was heartwarming to see how friendly the staff were with them. When you dine-in you get chips and salsa for the table. The chips are crisp and the salsa has a kick to it. I ordered the al pastor burrito because my friend said it was the best al pastor he's ever had. The burrito is simple, but I agree that the al pastor is very tasty and the salsa is great!

    Came on Father's Day me and my family were waiting at another establishment waiting for our turn to be seated after about 45 minutes. I lost my patience of waiting around so I jumped onto Yelp and found Tony's Mexican grill best decision I made because the food is absolutely delicious small place but clean good service and delicious food Looking forward to coming back and trying out other items on the menu.

    Carne Asada Fries

    Excellent experience! The service was top notch, very attentive and informative of ingredients and preparation choices available. Seating area and restrooms were very clean as well. I had mentioned to the cashier, Evelia, that I could not decide between the burrito and the menudo but I opted for the burrito. I was later pleasantly surprised with a small bowl of menudo just so i could try it. I definitely recommend and will be coming back.

The meal started off strong with their chips and salsa--super fresh and flavorful. For my entrée, I had the chicken fajitas. While they were cooked properly, I wish they had a bit more seasoning to really bring out the flavor. My wife had the enchiladas divorciadas, which were beautifully presented, but unfortunately, the filling was a bit cool. She probably should have sent it back, but since we were in a hurry, we didn't bother. On the positive side, my daughter had the carne asada burrito, and she said it was excellent. Service started off great with our younger male waiter being very attentive at first, but it slowed down significantly as our meal went on. By the end of our visit, I actually had to go up to the register to ask to pay. It was lunch time, and it wasn't that busy, so this felt a bit out of the ordinary. Despite the hiccups, I'm willing to give Morena's Mexican Cuisine another try, as it may have just been an off day. The chips and salsa, along with my daughter's burrito, showed that they definitely have what it takes to impress. I'll reserve final judgment after my next visit!

I found out about it through my cousin, who's a UCR alum, and I'm really glad I finally got to try it. The staff were super nice and attentive, constantly coming by our table to check if we needed more water, tortillas, or anything else we might want. Even with how busy it was, they still made sure everyone was taken care of, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was packed, and it actually surprised me because I don't usually see that many people at restaurants in Riverside. The energy inside felt lively but still comfortable. One of my favorite parts was the fresh tortillas. They come out hot and fresh from the oven, and you can literally watch them being made right in front of you, which made it even better. And the best part is they're free. We ordered the carne fajitas and chile relleno. The fajitas were incredible, the meat was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, with that perfect smoky sear that comes from being cooked fresh on a hot skillet. Everything came out sizzling and stayed flavorful with every bite. The chile relleno was also really good, with a nice balance of savory and slightly creamy filling that paired well with the sauce. It was actually my first time trying fajitas, and I can confidently say I'll be ordering them again the next time I come back. I definitely plan on returning while I'm still at UCR to make up for all the years I didn't know this place existed.

We have not been here since the 90's and I have to say, it was much better back then. All in all, there is just no flavor. The salsa tasted like watery tomatoes, our waitress gave us a little side of habanero salsa to incorporate with it but that heat is the extreme for me. We ordered the Mesquite chicken and steak fajitas which were less than average. Not sure if it was just a bad day, but the taste of the protein did not match up to the wonderful smell of BBQ outside the restaurant. The tortillas were just ok, first batch was not even warm. My Michelada was good though. Bummer visit after being away for so long. Looks like the interior could stand a makeover.

The owner, Santiago, allowed us to come a half hour beforehand to decorate & we came in, not knowing what to expect. Upon our arrival, the birthday cake was promptly whisked away to the kitchen, we found Santiago PERSONALLY on his hands & knees fixing the electrical cords for us, our servers introduced themselves & graciously helped us rearrange the set-up to accommodate the band we brought in. Then helped us rearrange the layout yet again once we realized the band needed to be next to the electrical outlets. I was embarrassed to even ask so I started doing it myself but they jumped right in without being asked. If I'm being honest, usually I'm not a fan of buffet meals, so I wasn't expecting much. But everything served was SO delicious! The fajitas were my favorite dish, not only flavorful but also nice & moist. Not only that, but they refilled the food for us as it ran out. They brought out to-go boxes for the leftovers, & best believe my family took home every last bite! The lime margarita tower was SO yummy but also hella dangerous because it was strong!! Other restaurants will give you watered down drinks but El Patron doesn't play. We were only planning on one but it was so good, we couldn't resist getting another. From start to finish, the servers (Leslie and Cecilia) were on POINT. Their service went above & beyond expectations-- continuously checking on us, refilling drinks/food, taking photos, etc. Not only that, but also, when my young autistic nephew unfortunately got sick, they were so incredibly compassionate about it & helped clean up the mess right away. I was absolutely blown away by the attention to detail & quality of care. As my grandma is getting older, we are especially cherishing these final years with her. We spent thousands overall (venue, music, photographer, special mass, etc) but every last cent was worth seeing her happy with all of her loved ones. After many months of planning, I was super nervous about something going wrong but I can honestly say that core memories were made. Thank you to Santiago, Leslie & Cecilia for your hospitality, good food & work ethic-- it truly meant so much for our family unit.

There is a salsa bar that can help add to your meal like spicy pickled carrots, cucumbers, salsa and pickled onions. My favorite part of this place is the art decor. They're all made from materials that were bound to go in the trash, most notably cans that they open for cooking. So you'll see lids and the other material from cans beautifully molded into these structures. It may seem random but I found lots of humor and play thrown into the craftsmanship of it all. Some pieces are like playing I Spy. It was funner to see than a lot of museums I've gone to actually. It's truly just packed with art. I even got to meet one of the artists as he was working on something. He was really friendly. There's a few of them who work on them together and I learned they've been doing this since the 90's! How cool. It's so nice to see all the things they've come up with to create. Go check it out! Definitely a date worthy spot too. My bf and I had a lot of fun walking around seeing what they created.
