Was seated immediately by friendly staff. Had their chimichanga plate and it's the first time since I've been to Kentucky where I enjoyed the Mexican food and found it to be packed with flavors. Great little place. Loved the murals

Fajitas were average but the service was great. Will eat there again. We were referred by a family member.

This place is fantastic! Colorful decor, clean environment, friendly and remarkably quick service, even on a steady Saturday. The food is delicious, fresh, and authentic. At a very fair price too. The margs don't taste great - a step up from a spiked lime Gatorade imo - but they are strong in both flavor and effect and honestly worth the price. My friend and I split the jumbo because we didn't want to leave actually drunk. I was just passing through, but I'd love to come for happy hour next time I'm here. The poo-themed stickers also made our day.

My go-to for authentic Mexican food in Morehead and Rowan County, hands down! You know the food is going to be good when the chips and salsa are fresh and tasty and not out of a can (New York City?!). The friendly management and staff make sure you have a positive and pleasant dining experience well as delicious food at reasonable prices. Stop by and see mi Amigos at Mi Monterrey and tell them "Mayor Jim Tom" sent you. Gracias!

We have stayed at Morehead while passing through a couple of times and have been at Mi Monterrey before. We found it OK to return to. With this visit, I feel the same. It is fine, not exceptional and not bad.This time our chips were not fried in rancid oil, but the salsa leaves a lot to be desired. I feel like it is just some canned tomatoes with a little cilantro, lots of hunks of onion and not much flavor. I jazzed mine up with El Yucateco to make it a little more interesting.Ms T wanted a small meal, so just had a couple of her usual ground beef tacos and declared them fine. They let me order Huevos Rancheros for dinner even though they are listed on the lunch menu. I substituted salsa verde for the usual salsa ranchero. These were fine, the salsa verde is a little bland, needing more tomatillo for backbone and some green chile heat.As with our first experience, this is fairly average but OK Mexican. It keeps us out of the fast food places.

First of all let me start by saying I grew up eating and making authentic Mexican food. I am from Texas and I've had Mexican food in so many different states. I came in to this place because my friend recommended it. First look at the menu and I was skeptical. I order their chile rellenos and taco lunch special. I asked the waiter what kind of taco it was he mention a taco dorado. I asked for a chicken one with my chile rellenos. This food was definitely NOT Mexican at all not even Texmex. The rice was not cooked and lack seasoning, the taco was not nothing more that a Taco Bell taco and their salsa had no flavor, the chiles rellenos was not cover in egg like it supposed to be. I talked to the owner Marcos about what was going on. He was rude, disrespectful and dismissive. He told me that the food was cater to American and was not Mexican but if I was him I would just pay for it eat it and not say anything at all. He then walked off and ignored me without having an adult conversation about it. Few minutes later I called him over again and asked him how could we solve this issue and he told me in a very rude way that for this time only he wouldn't charge me for the food (even tho I didn't eat it) but not to come back and not to go to any other Mexican restaurant in the area to criticize their food and walked away. Not ones did he try to fix the problem or offer a different menu item. I have never been treated to rudely in my life. I am giving them a star for the waiter who were very attentive and nice but the owner is the complete opposite. I have no idea how this place according to the owner has been open for 10 years. If you are looking for good MEXICAN FOOD DONT COME HERE!!! You will be highly disappointed.

My wife and I had lunch at Mi Monterrey today, for the first time, and totally enjoyed the experience. Not a great location, in a small shopping center just off Main Street, but the restaurant was tidy, clean and well appointed, with an excellent attentive staff. The traditional start of chips and salsa was good and chips were warm and salsa pleasantly spicy.Iced tea was good and replenished often and items we ordered off the list of luncheon specials were tasty, hot and competitively priced. I had a luncheon burrito, rice, etc. and my mate had the chili relleno, which was especially spicy and good. She also had a crispy taco, which was served with abundant beef, lettuce, tomato and guacamole. Maybe the best Mexican food in Morehead, Kentucky. Recommended!

Spent $44 on take out and we barely got enough food to feed one person. This was the fist time I've ate here and now will be my last.

Portion sizes are terrible, and the food is lackluster at best. When my party was seated, the service was horrendous. We didn't have silverware or napkins for several minutes after our food was served, and we never got the queso dip we ordered when we put in our drink order. La finca does a much better job with the food AND the service.
