MONARCA MEXICAN TAQUERIA

We spotted this new restaurant and tried it out for lunch today. Although we couldn't have a beer with our lunch (pending liquor license), we were really pleased with the quality of the food and service. Very authentic and I enjoyed getting a small bowl of beans with our chips instead of a salsa.

My husband and I just had dinner at Mornaca for the first time, and it was such a pleasant surprise. We learned that the restaurant changed ownership about six months ago, and the new owners are truly doing something special here. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with chips and refried beans topped with cheese. The beans instantly took me back, they have that authentic, comforting Mexican flavor, like something my abuelita would make at home. We were craving street tacos and ordered the carne asada and tripa (tripe). What really stood out was that they asked how we wanted the tripa cooked. We asked for medium well, and it was hands down the best tripa we’ve had in the area, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I also ordered an agua de jamaica, which was absolutely perfect,

This place is 🔥🔥.. I ordered a Carne Asada burrito with everything and it was so smack. This one of my new go to spots in Hayward, high quality food at a modest price. Quick service and the staff was pretty cool. 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Came to have breakfast here with my husband. It was quiet and nice atmosphere. Parking in the back. We really liked our dishes, we ordered Huevos Rancheros and Chirozo con Huevos. Handmade tortillas. I will be back here

I’m on an endless quest to experience the best burritos. This restaurant is under new ownership. The new beautiful orange color of the building caught my eye. I was going to go somewhere else but I had to drive around the block to come check this place out. I was not disappointed. I got my usual vegetarian super burrito. The owner told me that the rice was not veg and she had the cook make me a burrito with everything except the rice. The ingredients were super fresh. The beans were cooked to perfection. The grilled onions were sweet and caramelized. It had the perfect balance of hot and cold. I swore to myself that I would only eat half but I had to eat the whole thing. The plate came with a generous helping of pickled jalapeños, fresh lime and fresh radish slices. The salsas were also in
