“ Today was my first time here and this place did not disappoint one bit. The customer service was great, the food was fresh with so much flavor! I tried their wet burrito and it was amazing! Can’t wait to come back and try other things from their menu! ”
“ Jill, the owner, was absolutely wonderful. Great service, great food, great prices. This is definitely my new go-to spot. So freaking good. ”
“ This is my favorite place to eat when I'm in town. Great food and good service. ”
“ Great place for some good Mexican food! Be prepared to wait to get a table if you come during lunch rush hour. It’s a pretty popular little spot and has lots of customers:) I believe they could use more help tho there was only a young lady serving at the front and was very busy all by herself. At some point some other lady from the back came to her rescue for a bit a served some tables because she got stuck taking orders and charging people, even so she managed to keep her cool and helped as many as she could but definitely needs an additional server. ”
“ I've been to El Mora a few times now. Every time the food is great. It's always tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant. The service is really great too. If you dine in they will treat you like family. My favorite dish is the wet burito, half red, half green souse. ”
“ One of the best Mexican restaurants in town. You got to try the secret menu. The Chile relleno burrito or the Potato Tacos. But if you want some bomb-ass breakfast you got to try the Mora breakfast. Over easy eggs with refried beans u over a grilled nopal with a delicious grill flank steak. The Mora Breakfast special. ”
“ A Family Fiesta at El Mora! El Mora brought a fiesta to our lunchtime outing with the family! The atmosphere was cool and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal. The staff there were absolute gems – friendly, helpful, and always happy to answer questions or accommodate special requests. Now, onto the delicious part: the food! I dove into a Wet Burrito smothered in their fantastic Green Salsa. (They also offer it with Red Salsa, or even a combo of both!) The meat was bursting with flavor, and the salsa had a perfect balance where it added depth without being overpowering. My wife enjoyed the Birria Tacos, which she described as good, but the real show stealers were the Asada Fries and Enchiladas according to the kids – they devoured them with gusto! El Mora's true hidden gem? Their agua frescas! I've tried the Horchata with strawberry, passion fruit, and mango so far, and each one has been a refreshing explosion of flavor. I can't wait to go back and explore their other offerings! Overall, El Mora ticked all the boxes for a fantastic Mexican food experience. The price is fair, the service is phenomenal, and the food is simply delicious. What more could you ask for? We'll definitely be back for more family fiestas at El Mora! ”
“ Authentically delicious! I wish I visited sooner than I did. The shop might be easy to miss, but you’ll be sorry that you didn’t notice this place sooner. I’d put this above any Mexican restaurant that we have out here. Taste? The flavors, seasoning, and care that went into my meal is made with love for their dishes and of home made food. The tacos and salsas had real depth and flavor. Did I mention the caramelized onions that came with it? Fantastic. I also got a handmade passion fruit drink. It wasn’t overly sweet (perfect) and was an amazing compliment to the food I had. Did I mention how the food smelled? Before I took the first bite, the aromas of the food were mouth watering with complexities and tenderness. Atmosphere? Cozy. It doesn’t feel like a restaurant or a random spot for food, from the person who greeted me to the subtle decor and efforts, it felt like a second home. I can’t wait to return. ”
