Staff is always amazing. This food is absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I found this place and go back 2 times a month now. A great price for the amount of food you get. Everything on the menu looks exactly the same prepared - and tastes soo good!! If you’re looking for your new food spot definitely pick this place.

I have been here now several times and came for my birthday for the first time, honestly I already recommend this place to everyone I know already but I can not recommend this place enough. This food, the drink and the atmosphere is wonderful and so much fun. Do not hesitate and jump on it, me and my husband both love this place.

The stars speak! From the moment you walk through the front doors of La Morena, you’re welcomed into an atmosphere that’s both electric and warm. Nestled conveniently right off Mississippi and I-225, this hidden gem in Aurora is a destination you’ll want to return to—again and again. The interior is bright, impeccably clean, and buzzing with a warmth that makes you feel instantly at home. As you’re seated and handed the menu, be prepared: this is not your average dining experience. The menu is a visual delight, with vibrant photos of every dish, along with dedicated drink and dessert menus that could rival any upscale dining spot. It’s nearly impossible to choose just one item—you’ll want to order everything. There is also a separate bar area. The service is exceptional. From start to finish, you're taken care of with attentiveness and care. The experience begins with fresh, flavorful chips and salsa, followed by perfectly timed appetizers, and finally, entrees that are nothing short of immaculate. Every plate is beautifully presented and full of authentic flavor, exceeding expectations in every way. Whether you’re stopping in for lunch, dinner or a birthday, La Morena is a culinary experience you don't want to miss. It's easy to access, family-friendly, and packed with flavor and energy. If you're looking for your next favorite spot, let this be it. This was my experience—choose La Morena. You won’t regret it. Remember, if it’s great we be at it!

Wow, large portions ! Love the chimi very authentic Mexican food to write to home about. I'm from Arizona BTW!!!! Grab some delicious food with entertaining music . Treat yourself to some happy hours as well! Just look at these amazing beverages,

The place's vibe is very friendly and welcoming right from the start. The decorations are colorful and happy. We got here on a Sunday just before 11am. It wasn't too busy yet, but people started flowing in once it was 11. We got water, chips, and salsa, and our drink orders were immediately taken. The menu is extensive and has lots of seafood options. Since it was our first visit, I decided to go with a combination plate—Taco, tostada, enchilada, beans, and rice. The chicken from the enchilada was very tender and flavorful. All flavors together spoke fresh, crafted, and unique. The other two people I was with also enjoyed their combos and enchiladas. I cannot wait until we can visit again. I'd love to try some of their seafood specialties. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I also saw their breakfast and lunch special menu, great deals for yummy food!

Edit: 2nd time experience - we came in and they offered we take a seat at the bar side, which we accepted. It started well but then it got too busy. Which happens and we understand. However, the issue was the food order. We ordered an appetizer and a main course. The waiting part we are ok with, given we see that it's busy. The issue is we got our main course before the appetizer. We were practically done eating when the appetizer was brought out. We got nachos, which is not something we can take home for later, not to mention we asked for no tomatoes and they added them. We asked if they could remove the nachos, since they brought them out too late. The bartender said sorry we already brought them out. Which we responded we would have told you not to bring them out but you haven't checked in at all. We asked for the supervisor and they never came. If the bartender would have had a good attitude, offered a discount or a sincere apology we would have moved on. But it was almost as if it was our fault the food came out at the wrong time. Once she saw that my husband got up to find a supervisor, she then said she'll remove the appetizer. Overall, bar side is a no if it's during busy times, unless there's someone helping. Other than that, the food was still good. Apart from the nachos that we didn't try. Food was very good. I was extremely happy they offered freshly made tortillas (I had corn). However, I wish the order came with more than 3 tortillas, especially with a molcajete de carne, it was big enough for two people. The waitress was efficient and polite, she even offered a discount as there was an error in the description on the menu. We had ordered a sushi that we thought had shrimp per description but didn't, eitherway it was well prepared and delicious. Overall, I am excited to return and happy to recommend this restaurant.

Vanessa is awesome and took very good care of us ! This place has the most amazing authentic Mexican food! If you love delicious food and amazing margaritas please visit them! The atmosphere is also so warm and inviting !

First of all, this place was unlike any other Mexican restaurant I’ve been to! They are rewriting the playbook and I love it. They have multiple menu options, there is something for everyone! The service was amazing. Everyone who spoke with us looked happy to be there and were extremely polite! And the atmosphere was my favorite. The decor is unique and when they celebrate birthdays, they dress up in costumes and dance. I had so much fun and would definitely go back!
