" I've been to Tacos Moreno on many occasions, but my last visit had me questioning whether to return. The al pastor was dry, which was disappointing since it's usually quite tasty. The atmosphere felt rushed and disliked the long wait time. Despite this single experience, I hope the next will be better as they have made great tacos in the past. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos Moreno did not disappoint! The authentic flavors were incredible, especially the al pastor tacos that had a perfect balance of spices. The atmosphere felt casual and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. The service was prompt and friendly, and the prices are quite reasonable for the quality offered. One of my must-visit places for Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos Moreno is my go-to place for satisfying cravings. Their bean tacos are surprisingly delicious and full of flavor. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the staff are always friendly. However, the prices seem to have gone up lately, which is a bit frustrating. Still, the quality holds up, so I don’t mind paying a little extra for the good food! " (*Curated Review*)

" We ordered take-out from Tacos Moreno, and while the food was good, the packing was a bit sloppy. The tacos didn't hold together as well as expected, but the flavors were solid, offering authentic tastes of Mexico. I'd still recommend giving them a show because the burritos were exceptional! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love coming to Tacos Moreno with friends! The ambiance is lively, and the tacos always seem to be made with love. Recently tried their breakfast burrito, and it was hearty without being overwhelming. The salsa also packs a punch! Service was cordial even if a bit busy, but the food is definitely worth the wait!

" If you're in the area, make sure to stop by Tacos Moreno! I've had the shrimp tacos, and they were perfectly cooked with a delightful crunch. I loved their variety of salsas too—definitely try the spicy one! I’ve never left feeling disappointed here, with good portions and a warm atmosphere. A genuine Mexican taco experience worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered Tacos Moreno on a road trip and am so glad I did. The chicken burrito was stuffed to the brim, and the flavors were on point. This was a delightful find with friendly faces and a welcoming atmosphere. I appreciated that they offer only cash payment; it feels more authentic. A top-notch taco experience all around!
