“ Salsas were perfect, tacos were flavorful. Just wish they had tacos de lengua but overall the carnitas and asada were flavorful and the tripas were good, I like mine a bit more on the crispy side though. Would definitely recommend and comeback ”
“ This is a colorful little strip mall spot with a great salsa bar and very friendly counter service. The salsa was fresh and there are several varieties to choose from. The wife got her favorite, Camerones a La diabla and the shrimp were clean, and simmered in a rich , red sauce. The rice and beans are perfect!! I had the shrimp taco fish taco plate. The tacos were loaded with a killer slaw, cilantro and onions, and a killer sauce. I was full off one taco but if you know me, you know I finished both. This place is 10/10 and if we lived closer, would be our go to Mexican spot. ”
“ Their chilaquiles are really really good. I just wanted there to be a little bit more meat so this is why we had an addition of Chorizo. The chilaquiles was the best thing we ordered I think. The chimichanga was yummy, not outstanding though unfortunately. Flan is a bit denser than I expected it to be. Overall pretty dang good food and I would love to see this place stay in business. Must be tough with all the competition in the area ”
“ Really good Mexican food super nice people that run it has TV's and a small bar I love there chicken tacos and there nacho fries ”
“ Solid street tacos. I judge taquerias on the flavor of their asada street tacos and their mild or medium salsa. This place delivers. My (super picky) wife loves their chilaquiles. We've made this part of our regular Mexican joint rotation. ”
“ Popped in this joint for lunch yesterday. Service was beyond friendly. We would come back for the friendly service even if the grub was meh. Good thing that wasn't the case. Let's start with the chips and salsa. You can never go wrong with homemade chips and flavorful salsa. If ya like it hot, they have that too. Everyone loved their meals. Outstanding street tacos, and yummy crispy flautas. Carnitas were great and Chile relleno was amazing. Top it off with ice cold cervesas and you have smiles all the way around. I live in Lincoln but will definitely be back to work my way around the menu !! ”
“ Omg! Very cute place! The food was really good, the service was amazing. Very friendly I would definitely come back. Watch out for the red sauce it's is spicy, I love habaneros I felt it had a good spicy taste. The meat tasted with flavor, would highly recommend ”
“ It may seem like this area doesn't need another Mexican restaurant, but if you enter a saturated market and bring it with good food and nice, personable staff you can stand out. This place stands out to me for fresh authentic flavors and staff that is happy to have you visit. It's on the small side, but not too small. There is a dedicated, quaint bar. I haven't used it, but I'm sure the cerveza drinkers love it. It will take me a while to work my way through the menu. I'm not concerned about that at all. It all sounds great and what I have eaten makes me look forward to it. ”
“ Just discovered this place and I'm so happy we did! The quesabirrias and chicken tacos were so good! Definitely recommend! ”
