Not even close to the real thing as located in Mexico City. This place is over rated. I have tasted better churros from Los Angeles than these. They are thin and taste ok, not worth the drive. Go to Luceros in Bell gardes, much much better using an authentic Mexican recipe and much cheaper.

I recently purchased a churro from this location, and it was clearly undercooked — the inside was very doughy and not safe to eat. When I brought it back and politely asked for a replacement, the staff member refused and insisted that it was “fine,” even though it was obviously not fully cooked.
Poor food quality is one thing, but the lack of basic customer service and unwillingness to fix the issue was very disappointing. I would not recommend this place based on this experience.

Disappointed in the quality of their Cafe de olla I felt like I was drinking pure sugar not exactly sure what their standards are. And the classic hot chocolate was disgusting, it was oily and it didn't taste good because it had like milk that had been sitting there and I was able to taste something like masa in the hot chocolate this is definitely a no for me. I was able to see little crumbs. The only the item I would buy again will be the Churros. They still need a lot of improvement because the meat in their tortas has zero flavor like they choose to not season their meat and then thought that if they added onions and cilantro, this would add flavor but again it was a complete disappointment people from Mexico know how to eat and make tortas. This place doesn't represent Mexico not even a little. It lacks flavor and authenticity.

What a scam. They smell good, look legit. The prices are insane. Each chuto is 3$. No one chuto is the same size. Husband bought a 12 pack, 30$. They taste burnt and the inside was raw. 3 pack of sauce was 5$ not 4$ as listed even though we asked.

If you've had good churros these are just okay. IMO not worth the wait or the price.

I was so excited to try but the hot chocolate I recieved was so clumpy… and honestly disgusting. Don’t recommend. The churro was fine it was very thin and dry which was disappointment.

The churros taste very authentic and the coffee was great. Had a cafe de olla and it did not disappoint.

The absolute BEST churros!! I've gone to El Moro several times in Mexico City and the quality here in Costa Mesa is on par! The churros have the best crunch to them, never soggy or hard to rip apart, and are just the right amount of sweet. The young man working the order pickup station was SO nice and made my day ☺️
I was told these are the only authentic churros outside of Mexico. Service was fast (considering they are made to order and there was a line). Churros are hot and fresh.

Phenomenal churros. Having tried churros in LA, OC, and across the southern border, the texture and flavor of El Moro is on point. ‘Tis the season, so they also offer a gingerbread churro, which has a more vanilla, spiced aroma, super tasty. 10/10. Also their hot chocolate is great.

Well, disappointing to say the least. I ordered a chocolate español and it wasn’t thick at all like a chocolate español should be. So I went back and told them my order was wrong if u could please give me what I asked for. But alas, they gave me one of the same. Not to be pedantic but I just came back from CDMX and their Polanco and condesa locations did have actual thick chocolate español. I understand it takes a long time to make, but why advertise and sell something that you’re not preparing correctly. $6 isn’t cheap either. Churros are ok.
