Opening in 2017, Morenas Mexican Cuisine in Ladera Ranch, is the original Orange County location.
Conveniently located off the 5 freeway, just a few miles east on Ortega Hwy 74, we are a short drive from Ladera Ranch, San Juan Capistrano and Trabuco Canyon.
We never use pre-made sauces, mixes, or frozen ingredients in our food. Our beans are slow cooked, our rice is made fresh, our cocktails are made with fresh fruit, our salsas are made by hand, and you can taste the difference.
Morena’s Mexican Cuisine in Rancho Mission Viejo is located in the Sendero Marketplace. Come and enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine in our restaurant or call us for your catering needs.
