    Refried beans
    Eric O.

    First off, I'd like to mention that I've been going to Abelardo's for years. Abelardo's is a restaurant that's been in Omaha for some time and has grown immensely. In my opinion, this is due to the great value, taste, and service that they provide. This review is similar to review I posted for a different Abelardo's location, but modified as necessary. Abelardo's my family's favorite go-to restaurant on fast food night. Once a week, we order food in and out of the six people in my family, four of them recommend Abelardo's first. Needless to say, we end up eating there quite a bit. I always get the chorizo breakfast burrito. The burrito is massive, very reasonably priced, and comes with chorizo, egg, potatoes, and cheese. It is greasy, massive, and delicious. I will admit, it is somewhat unappetizing to see the amount of grease in it. But I don't order a chorizo burrito at a Mexican restaurant expecting health food. Cost of $7.99, which does not include any sides, But is an insanely good value. My wife and eldest son usually get the combination plate number 18 which comes with two carne asada burritos, rice, and beans. The portion is massive as well. My teenage son eats the whole thing, but my wife routinely saves one of the burritos for leftovers the next day. The meat is well seasoned and overall, it's pretty tasty. Cost for the meal is $12.99. My two younger sons both get hey breakfast burrito, usually sausage and bacon. Again, this is similar sized to the chorizo burrito (HUGE) and it's stuffed full of ingredients. These also cost $7.99, which is pretty affordable given the size. Extra meat is $0.75. My daughter has ordered the soft tacos and the fried taco on different occasions. The fried taco she got last time was crispy and delicious, but not too oily and sits on a bed of lettuce. She, along with my two boys who tried it, all said that the refried beans were delicious. Refried beans are their favorite item at Mexican restaurants, so I will trust their opinion on this one. The refried beans were $2.99 for a portion that looked to be about about a pint. Total bill is usually around $60 for six people, which includes two adults and one teenager. So even though it seems pricey, it's rather affordable for a meal for our family, and the burritos usually provide leftovers for four of the people. Another thing to point out, is that the menu at Abelardo's is huge. There is a ton of different offerings and types of products to order, and surely there is something for everybody. Abelardo's is routinely meeting or exceeding our expectations for taste. I haven't eaten in this particular location, but the drive-thru is always quick and the employees are attentive and friendly. When you're there, it's also worth trying the Mexican drinks, especially the horchata. If you like Mexican food, you must try Abelardo's and likely won't be disappointed!

    Me:  "no pico de gallo, no cilantro" Abelardos:  *just as much pico as meat*

    Disclaimer: we frequent this location once or twice a month and normally do not have any problems. I would typically give it between 4 and 5 stars. This review is based on one bad visit, hence the disclaimer that I normally have no problems here and I keep coming back. And for that reason, even though this is a negative review, I am giving 4 stars. 1. I hate cilantro. I despise it. It should be banned. I can taste even the tiniest bit and it tastes like metallic soap. It's disgusting. It makes me angry. 2. Wherever I am, when I order anything that might potentially have cilantro on it in any form or fashion, I ask about it if I'm not sure, and I clearly state no cilantro. I frequently get the carne asada burrito at this location and I always tell them NO pico de gallo, no cilantro. Today I ordered two carne asada burritos and I clearly said "no pico de gallo, no cilantro". Even translated into Spanish, it's the same: "no pico de gallo, no cilantro". 3. I got home with the burritos, and the spousal unit and I cut them in half to start eating, and what did we see? A butt load of pico de gallo, which contains cilantro. By the time all of the pico de gallo had been scraped out of two halves of our burritos, including a little bit of sacrificial meat, a large ramekin was totally filled up with that garbage. And the volume of the burritos were basically reduced by half. 4. Again, we go to this location once or twice a month and have never before had problems. But it angers me that I very clearly told them no pico de gallo or cilantro and they still put enough in there to ruin the burritos. Yes, I will be back there again, within a week or two, and I'm sure the dining experience will be just fine. But that doesn't change the fact that I feel like good money was wasted today on something that I essentially cannot eat and enjoy. All because someone wasn't listening. To quote President Biden, "C'mon, man!"

    This the third time we've had dinner at this location. Every time we drive-by it always seems to be…read morebusy. The atmosphere inside is always very well decorated for the season/occasion. This last visit they had the entire restaurant decorated for Valentine's Day coming up. But, besides the additional decorations the overall vibe is what you would expect for a Mexican restaurant but more. The service has been friendly and fast! The original Margarita is very good and for the price its about 3 servings. The complementary chips & salsa is great and more of a forgotten service nowadays, but great to see that Alegre is still doing it. The homemade tortilla chips are so good so be careful to not fill up on these before the main entrees. Kendra got the Chile Verde which was massive and was enough food for leftovers the next day. And, I had the Ceviche Sampler which is new and definitely worth every penny! It's hard to find restaurants that have ceviche on the menu, but this has been one of my favorites if you love seafood and a repeater for me! If your looking for more of an upscale $$ Mexican restaurant with great food, service and ambiance it's hard to beat El Muchacho Alegre.

    Super fun restaurant with great food and drinks! I wish I would've tried something else on the menu…read morebecause I wasn't a big fan of the cantarito I ordered, but the margaritas looked fab on the menu! I've had this restaurant recommended by multiple people and I can say it lives up to the hype. I loved the decor and music playing, the atmosphere was casual and fun. We were sat in a little booth but there are high and low tables and a bar area inside and a patio outside. The patio is shaded, which will be nice in the summer. We had chips and salsa brought to the table, and they were the typical restaurant chips and salsa, nothing special but tasty. I ordered the birria tacos and was so glad I did! They were cheesy, greasy, full of meat, and the consommé was rich and flavorful. The rice was really flavorful and the beans were typical. My husband ordered a cantarito and I thought it sounded good so I ordered one too. They were much bigger than we've had before. They were kind of warm, cherries were added, and it was heavy on the orange juice. I wouldn't order one again, but I would definitely order a margarita. They all sounded so good, and I'd love to try the candy shots! They only came as a set of 4, I wish we could get them individually. Overall, a great experience and looking forward to going back to try more.

    I haven't been to Marias in over 10 years so this was really like a new experience for me…read more I stopped in on my birthday with some girlfriends and we sat on the screened in patio. Overall the food was great, i got 1 puffy taco and I like the order of the chips mixed flour/corn. The service was really slow, we were sat and got water but took about 10ish minutes for our server to come back to get our drinks, another 10 for them to be delivered. We were going somewhere by appt later so we just go the check when the food eventually came. TLDR - its good, good pricing, good specials, and would return when not on a time constraint

    My review of Maria's: the food has no life or love. Blander than bland…read more We ordered the cheese nachos as an appetizer, which to my surprise looked exactly like the snack I made myself after school as a kid - a plate of tortilla chips with melted cheese on top with a side of jarred sliced jalapeños. That's it. No salsa or any toppings of any kind. It was Taco Tuesday so we ordered the two taco special. One beef, one chicken puffy taco. Neither looked or tasted like there was even a sprinkling of seasoning. I honestly feel like the recipes I see on TikTok would yield much better food. I know this restaurant is a staple of downtown Ralston and the wait staff is exceptional, but I was extremely disappointed in the menu. I can't recommend this establishment for good Mexican food.
