" Rene's is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon it while exploring Mora, and it did not disappoint. The brisket plate was generous and delicious, perfectly cooked with a smoky flavor. I also loved the fried potatoes, a rare find these days. The service was attentive, making me feel right at home. I left with a happy belly and a smile. Definitely coming back for breakfast next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The quality of food was decent, but I have had better authenticity in New Mexican cuisine elsewhere. My enchiladas were lacking depth in flavor. The environment was classic diner style, but I felt it could have showcased local art or culture more. Service was standard, but nothing remarkable. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a great time at Rene's! The diner was decorated with memorabilia which added to the charm. We tried several items off the menu, including tacos and a BBQ brisket sandwich, both of which were satisfactory. The only downside was the wait time for our food, but it was worth it. The staff was friendly, and they kept the coffee flowing. I’ll definitely recommend this place to friends passing through. " (*Curated Review*)

" We spent a lovely afternoon at Rene's 50's Diner. The nostalgic decor made us feel like we stepped back in time. I had the taco platter which was massive and could feed two people! The flavors were rich and genuinely reminded me of New Mexico cuisine. Service was courteous, and the owner went around to chat with guests, creating a welcoming environment. If you love hearty authentic food in a charming setting, give this place a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Being new in town, I was looking for a nice place to take my family for lunch, and I found Rene's. The food was tasty; we ordered a mix of tacos and sandwiches. My only complaint is the wait time for food seemed a bit longer than usual, but the staff tried to accommodate us as best as they could. " (*Curated Review*)

" Whenever I visit Mora, I have to stop at Rene's! The fries were crispy and perfect, while the BBQ brisket was savory and smoky. The owner and the staff made us feel welcomed and provided good service even with a full house. Worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" Rene's diner is a cozy spot! I had a cup of the soup of the day and it tasted homemade which was a huge plus. For my entree, I ordered the brisket sandwich and it was tender and flavorful. The fries were a bit greasy but paired well. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)
