This is a great little taco joint I walked by way too many times before I tried. I got a set of 3 street tacos, and they were awesome. Fast service, great food at a good price.It doesn't get any better than that!

No frills but excellent foodAfter a long day of travel! Too hungry to remember to take photos of the food but the food did not stay uneaten for long!I had an order of chips and guacamole! Guacamole tasted fresh and had a great texture with just the right amount T of red onion. My companion and ai ordered one order and the. Quickly got a second order! Only one server who also staffed the counter, but he kept it all moving!I also had three vegetarian tacos. Three soft corn tacos that seemed house made. They were stuffed with freshly grilled zucchini, sweet potato and broccoli. Perfect balance of flavors!

I saw a picture of the chata online and knew I had to check it out. I got a plain chata and some nachos with beans and it was exactly what I needed. I love that their vegetarian offerings have actual vegetables on them

Excellent choice for street tacos! YUM! The corn tortillas tasted just as I remembered a street vendor making them fresh on the sidewalks of Los Angeles more than 50 years ago. Wow! We had tacos, Queso with chips, rice. All were tasty at a decent price for four people. Service was pleasant and fairly fast. Great find in Morgantown!

The food was pretty good....but I was at the mercy of what my husband ordered because there's no printed menu and the menu on the wall is placed high enough (I'm short) with print small enough (not awesome vision With glasses) And with screens that transition so some things you better be able to read fast. It was all around fairly frustrating and to be honest I was fairly crabby but the time the food came. I will probably try it again I guess after studying the menu at home first, but come on man- if you're only going to have a menu on your wall at least make it easy to read!

Holy moly. THIS IS the Mexican mom and pop Morgantown was waiting for. I myself am Cuban/Spanish decent and the flavors bring me back home. They were excellent. Of course they have their variety of tacos and burritos, but they actually have Mexican arepas and true dishes that are made at home by grandma. They truly brought a family recipe to the public. They quality is great. I got an arepa with Al pastor and it even had pineapple like it should! That, along with a street taco made my feel just full enough to be satisfied. Service was quick, ambiance is super relaxed. Great place to get a quick authentic bite. Definitely, 100% will be back.

The food was good but I found it very pricey for how little food I actually received. Also I feel the inside still needs some work to it. It still has the "drunk college kid food stop" feel to it that all the previous restaurants had prior to it. It was good and worth trying.

Easily the best Mexican food in Morgantown! I was so impressed with how many options there were on the menu. There is absolutely something for everyone here. I lived in Mexico City for a few years and the food here took me back to Mexico with how authentic it was! If you're looking for truly authentic, filling and delicious Mexican food for an affordable price, La Monarca is your answer!Favorite appetizer: Asada fries Favorite dishes: Chata with carne asada (it tasted just like a gordita if you've been to Mexico City) AND Laura ACP (arroz con pollo)Favorite dessert: Cheesecake flanI hope you love this place as much as I did!
