Great food, quaint little place. Good service and friendly staff. A little gem in Lincoln Heights

This spot is a gem hidden in Lincoln Heights. They have the option to sit inside or outside. I recommend sitting outside. The ambiance is so cozy and inviting. I went with both of my nephews, and although they're picky eaters, they enjoyed the food here. I ordered the Menudo, and I will say it was absolutely delicious. Not to mention the freshly hand-made tortillas! The taste was authentic, and the server was really perceptive to all our requests. Definitely recommend if you're in the area and craving REAL Mexican food.

Ordered the chilaqueles, it was mostly salsa and crushed up chips for $18.... Stingy. The food was okay but to charge that much for just a little bit of chilaquiles is wrong.

This very modest eatery has a high eatery owner who has maintained an "A" status and is constantly cleaning and rearranging her restaurant. Open 7 days a week closes around 2 p.m. daily. If you want fresh homemade cork tortillas, and a plethora of outstanding Mexican food check out La Morinitas. You'll never go anywhere else.
The service from the male gentleman was just awful getting our order incorrect offering chips & salsa n not bringing them, food damn near cold n he was not hospitable at all don't come check on us or ask if we need anything else. We sat at Table 9 12:00pm on 11/04/2023 never again will we come here. We usually tip but this dude awful service

I've driven by here the past few weeks and I've noticed it's been closed. Any word if they went out of business?

We had a lunch to commemorate my late Uncle who was a frequent patron of La Morenita. Everyone on the restaurant staff came by to give their condolences and took pictures of our family for us. Being from El Paso, Texas, this is definitely one of the best Mexican Restaurants I've been to. The hospitality is unmatched! This was my late Uncle's absolute favorite restaurant.

I’ve been eating at La Morenita since I was a little kid. The food is always great and the service is even better! They know how to make you feel at home. It’s a staple for Lincoln Heights.
