    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!"

    We had been suggested this place by a friend and it came highly recommended! I enjoyed that…read moreeverything seemed to be made fresh to order and that it came out pretty quickly. The tacos I had were very warm and very filling, I was able to take some home for lunch the next day. The Cantarita was ok, seemed like it wasn't something that is usually made and it seemed more like it came in a bowl than the typical dish ware. The servers were very friendly and was able to help out when we had questions. The place itself was very well decorated and didn't seem cluttered. They have a lot of metallic art so that was pretty cool.

    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.

    Came here on a very busy Saturday night and were still able to get seated without a reservation…read more(though I highly recommend making one ahead of time). This was probably our third visit, and we absolutely love this place. Easily one of our favorite restaurants in Omaha. They had their holiday pop-up theme, Christmas in Cancun, and I loved how the entire place was decorated. It was so festive and fun. Our server was also very kind and attentive, even with how busy it was. I started the night with a drink from their holiday menu, the Passion in Paradise strong but delicious. My husband and I shared the chips & queso, and we always add chorizo because it takes it to the next level. I ordered the Bean and Cheese Rolled Tacos, and they were THE BEST. It was my first time trying them, and I'll definitely be ordering them again. The crema on top was my favorite part, and they were perfectly crispy. My husband ordered the Carne Asada Tacos and also tried the Tequila Lime Chicken Taco, both of which he thought were amazing. Fair warning: everything has a little kick of spice. Can't wait to come back again!

    Excellent food, we each had a couple of tacos and the drinks were great too. Anything from a basic…read morefish taco to vegan tacos on the menu and everything is a la carte so you can mix and match to your heart's desire. The chips and dips flight was a great appetizer with guac, salsa, and queso to satisfy the whole table's cravings! Immaculate vibes in the heart of Blackstone, it looks, feels, and sounds exactly like a place you'd expect to find in the trendy neighborhood. Their service was good, just be prepared to talk a little louder than you're used to during peak hours, it's busy, tight, and loud for the right reasons.
