Went to Abelardo's tonight for dinner. The drive through was busy but not busy inside. It was cold inside their heater was struggling to keep the heat inside the restaurant. Ice machine did not work well. I ordered a chicken burrito, my wife and a daughter had combination meals. Overall you get good quantity but not much flavor. Very bland. Overall, for the price it was a disappointing visit. read more

One of the better tasting Abelarado . They don't taste the same even they have the same menu. This one is tiny but still has a few table to dine in . Inside is nicely decorated with Mexican pattern . We order the beef cheek tacos , tongue taco , bean and rice . All the items are delicious ! read more

The food is good, generous portions, fairly priced but the service is just SO bad at this location. You never know when they're actually going to be open or not despite advertised and posted hours, lights will all be on and you pull up and nobody ever takes your order or acknowledges you in any way, well after they're supposed to be open. Other locations aren't as convenient as this one for me and I'm not driving a couple of city miles out of my way for food. Just too many other good options around to have a business clearly not want the money that badly. read more

Great drive through Mexican! Huge servings, reasonably priced. I always get the horchata and carne asada quesadilla. My husband gets the nachos and is always share to get both of the spicy sauces they offer. Also great for late night munchies. read more

Clean restaurant. The employees are really nice and will fixed messed up orders. If you eat in there are free chips. The burritos are giant and they are never bad. They are made fresh in the restaurant and takes long to make. 1 time they forgot extra cheese on my burrito, but I just added it at home. Me and my dad have gone many time and enjoyed it. I love it and they don't make you pay for them. read more

The service is absolutely terrible at this Abelardos location. The food is also disgusting too. The employees are extremely rude. Terrible experience and a waste of time. read more

Best place because they have great churros. Worst place because they stole my card information and bought themselves coffee. Recommend using cash only! Hope the coffee was good! read more

Exactly what authentic Mexican burritos should taste like. I recommend allowing time for a nap after as it's a guaranteed food coma

I love Abelardo's! I've been back six times, and never disappointed! I had one evening, I asked for a burrito with no potatoes, but got extra. No worries, I finished it the next day. These things are huge! Great staff, great food, and I don't mind the wait. Well worth it!! read more

Um, who doesn't love an amazing burrito drove through that is open after hours? Always a late night stop for us. We get the steak burrito, hold the potatoes! So yum!!! read more

Tried this place for the first time and it was just okay. Not a lot of flavor in ground meat. Beans tasted good as well as the rice. read more

Went and ordered a Birriha Queso Tacos, they forgot the consomme. This is the most expensive item on the menu and Ive had it plenty of times before so I know it comes with it. Just really disappointed since I live in the neighborhood and come here often. read more

So I just came from there and ordered some food I like I did like to go there at least once a week but that's changed radically considering the prices of gone up probably about 40% in the past six months and also when I asked to put no pico de gallo in my burrito because I used to just eat they used to put half onion and half Carne Asada in my car outside of Breadeaux so then I request it no more pico and then they removed my guacamole for my burrito I just came from there and I asked no pico in again no guacamole.This place is literally a hit or miss considering how much profit they've made for the month I'm assuming read more

Abelardo's Mexican Fresh - NO GUACAMOLE they charge 8.99 ! And too cheap on guacamole! - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

This was our first visit here. Sampled fish tacos, beef tacos, a beef burrito and a tamale. Best authentic Mexican food since we lived in Marshall, MN 7 years ago. This great little drive through only dive is a bomb!!! read more

I order from here often that will be now changing. Whenever I order online my order is never correct, even though I put no beans in English and Spanish. The order before this I never got reimbursed. When I do call to make sure things are correct I cannot get an answer. I was told when I finally get an answer that the phone is not a priority. I advised the young lady that answered the phone I see that. Phone or in person should be a priority. The customer service at this location is not customer friendly at all. I have put in my last order to this place. read more

The food was amazing! I 100% recommend this! 10/10 would eat again. The best damn food I've ever had, and the service was amazing, the lady that gave me my food was so nice, god bless. read more

The fried taco was the highlight. They have so many options. I ordered the fried beef taco, fish taco and a steak taco. I prefer flour tortillas (I know its not authentic) I tried it anyway. The inside of the tacos were good but again I just prefer flour, I could still tell the quality of corn tortillas was really good though. Nice quick lunch break snack. read more

This small drive thru shack is always satisfying. I honestly haven't ventured into most of the menu, because the items I get are always so good that I stick to them. I always get the Diablo burrito ($6.99), which is steak and shrimp with chipotle sauce and French fries along with the standard fillings. The tortilla is great, way better than store bought, but probably made elsewhere. There's a ton of shrimp, and the flavors meld really well together. The veggie burrito is good too... especially when you add steak to it. It's rice, beans, lettuce, pico and guac. The quesadillas are good, and the churros are also good and well worth the $1.49. However, the tamales are consistently super dry and fairly bland. I don't recommend them. Also, the chile verde burrito is wayyyy too salty. Overall this is a great drive thru place and the food is much much better than the other Abelardo's locations around town that I've been to. The other locations have all been disappointing, but not here. Definitely check this place out. read more

(Three and a half stars) I frequented Abelardo's on the reg back when I worked a few doors down. Faves: Veggie burrito, grilled Veggie quesadilla (not on the menu, but they will make it for you, and it's humongous) Horchata Churro These dudes are super nice and really appreciate it when you tip. There's usually just two or three of them in there, so be patient. I got a breakfast burrito once and it dripped with grease. Not my favorite. Other than that, though, the food is good, fairly inexpensive, and they're open late. What more do you want? P.S. Go with the burrito. P.P.S. If you look closely, it's not a drive-thru...it's a drive-TRU. read more

Abelardo's Mexican Fresh - The burritos are legit, y'all. They even grilled it for me. Bless them. - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Very disappointed with this location. Try a different location! Let me preface this by saying Abelardo's is one of my favorite places to eat in Omaha, hands down. I've gone to other locations too many times to count, and have had nothing short of excellent food and excellent service every time. My boyfriend and I moved to a new apartment and were SO excited to see there was an Abelardo's so close by. The first time I went, I had decided to get up early and go get some breakfast right when they opened to surprise my boyfriend before work. Their hours state that they open at 6, and my boyfriend leaves for work at 6:30 so I thought I'd be just enough time to get him food. I was in the drive-thru by 5:45 and waited patiently until 6:05 before saying "hello?" In the drive thru speaker. Nothing. I tried driving up to see if anyone was in there and I couldn't tell. I called the location, no answer. I knocked on the window, no answer. I waited there until 6:20 and no one was there. Finally I left. I just don't understand why they would say they open at 6am and no one was there. I was very frustrated by this, and didn't return for awhile. In fact I waited almost a year before returning, again for breakfast but this time and a much more reasonable time, around 10am. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese taco and was informed they only had sausage egg and cheese tacos, and bacon egg and cheese burritos (???) so I asked if they could substitute bacon for the sausage and just make me a bacon egg and cheese taco. They agreed and I proceeded to wait ~10/15 minutes to get my taco. I drove away and parked to eat it. When I opened my taco is was only a tortilla and bacon, no egg, no cheese. What the heck?? So I went back through the drive thru (I had to wait another 15 minutes while someone else ordered and got their food. Finally I let them know the problem and waited another 10 minutes while they made an egg and cheese to give me. I don't think I'll be returning to this location. Hopefully they get new management or employees or something because the company itself and other locations are amazing. read more

The sauce is now in packets that taste like plastic. So gross. Used to have actual sauce, now it's clearly commercially made tasteless and lack luster. Very disappointed. I don't enjoy the food the same anymore. Very downhill. Waste of money. read more

This place is the worst. We were stuck in the drive thru for over 15 minutes. No one helped anyone. When we finally got helped, she said oh no. How about sorry...slowest service ever and it was not worth the burrito. Totally stingy on hot sauce. Won't be back read more

Abelardo's Mexican Fresh - Baby hot sauce not enough for anyone - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Prices are INSANE! More than a fine dining Mexican restaurant. Like seriously one burrito is 10-12 dollars. Crazy!

LOVE Abelardo's! I go to the location at 180th and Pacific, and the food is always great! So much better (and 1000% more consistent than Lina's), and open 24 hours is great for this "third shifter"! Their speakers at the drive-thru could use replacement, though. I just try to speak slowly and clearly, then hope they could hear me better than I can hear them... and so far, only one mix-up. But everything on their menu is great, so even the time we got something different than what we ordered, it was delicious! read more

This was one of my favorite places to eat, it still has fair food but pricing is way too high.

I don't know what happened to this location, but the food and service is terrible. I ordered trips tacos and I don't know what I got, they were really greasy fried tacos of some kind. They screwed up my wife's order too. This has happened the last couple of times I've gone there, and when they get the order right, the quality is inconsistent. I won't be going there anymore. read more

This food was absolutely heavenly. Recommend to you, your kids, your grandparent, absolutely anyone you know. Go here right now. Worth every penny. Queso birria tacos. Best tacos I've ever had In my life. read more

I've been going to this restaurant for years. It's great for a quick Mexican fix with great food! The problem is the "quick" part as I often sit in the drive through for up to 30 minutes waiting for food! I think they might need to hire some more employees to help ! My favorite food is the California burrito or the quesadillas! Please get your staff problem fixed and it would run beautifully! read more

I usually have great experience here, but this time was horrible. I accidentally ordered super nachos instead of nachos fries, so when the employee who took my order came to the window I apologized and said I made a mistake with my order. I asked if it was possible to get the nacho fries. Instead of saying yes, she gave me a dirty look and an attitude and told me I would have to pay for fries. They weren't willing to make a new plate for me. If you order?n make sure there's no mistakes. read more

Great carnitas burrito. Fast service and fresh ingredients make this a go to stop for burritos and other fast Mexican options

We went to the location 180th and Pacific, 2 weeks in a row. Last week they remodeled and so they were closed, with no advertising. This week we went back because we got a gift certificate for Christmas. The people who bought it was at the 72nd and Giles location. They were told that you can use it at any location. Now we were told that it can only be used at 72nd and Giles, and that is after waiting for 45 minutes in the drive through. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! I have never been to a chain restaurant that you can only use it at that location. THAT IS REALLY POOR SERVICE!! To say it will never be used because we are located in Elkhorn. Why have other locations when you only honor at one?!?!?!? Makes no sense. Make sure you specify this online and at your locations so no more suckers buy from you! read more

As far as little drive through Mexican huts go this is a great late night spot or easy pick up when you don't feel like making dinner or breakfast. We love their breakfast burrito which you can get any time of day. read more

Been here twice over the past 3 months. Both times I couldn't understand the worker very well. Both times became an argument about what we did or did not order. Pretty sure the customer is supposed to be right in my 25+ years in the business. The Queso we received was cold and lacked cheese flavor. I like Abelardo's cook to order at other locations, not a better tortilla in the area. But this location has major issues. read more

I got so excited when I moved here from the south and saw that this Mexican restaurant had such great reviews. I was looking forward to some authentic food as it is my favorite. I don't even know where to start. First, this place is extremely dirty and could use an entire scrub down. With good food it can be easy to overlook dirty conditions, but there was no good food to mask the visuals. I got a plethora of items to try and sadly didn't finish eating any of them. The nachos were dry as they really skimp on the cheese and other toppings. The fajita meat I added was overcooked and lacked seasoning. The taquitos were burnt and almost as hard as a rock. The tacos and burritos were mostly tortilla with little filling. I didn't expect to find an outstanding Mexican place here in NE, but got excited when I saw the reviews. Sadly, I think some of these reviewers haven't ate good Mexican before. read more

Not horrible, but not great. I'm not sure what my expectations were getting Mexican food out of a little hut, but I had heard good things about Abelardo's so was excited to finally try it. It's an interesting set up--a little shack type building that is two sided for drive-through orders. We had somewhat of a large order for a drive-through with 4 different orders, and unfortunately when we got home (about 10 minutes away) we found that one of the orders wasn't in our bag. Our fault for not checking, but still maddening to have to drive back to get our forgotten order. We had one order of chicken nachos, two burrito combo meals, and a torta. The chicken nachos were piled high--lots of chicken, cheese, salsa, and guac on them. The chips themselves were delicious. I wasn't a huge fan of the chicken. While there was a lot of it, it just wasn't the best chicken. The burrito combo meal is a great deal--for the price of about $7, you get two nice size burritos, rice, and refried beans. The torta was also very good and I enjoyed the bread that it was on. Overall, if you are looking for quick and semi inexpensive Mexican food, go here. However, if you have the time there are a lot of better places to get your Mexican food craving taken care of. read more

When I found out that an Abelardo's had opened up near me, I thought it was a mistake. When I lived in midtown, I'd stop by there all the time as the food was tremendous. I hadn't had a chance to go back...until today. I ordered the burrito and enchilada combo (chicken) which came with rice and beans, a fish taco and a side of three taquitos with guacamole and cheese. Sound like a lot? It was. I hadn't had a fresh meal in a good day and a half, so I was going to take advantage of it. Taquitos were fantastic. Nice and crispy and the guac was perfect. The fish taco was full of flavor and a pleasure to devour. The burrito and enchilada were both huge and the rice and beans both fresh and a lovely end to the meal. Here's the skinny: You want the most authentic Mexican food in Omaha outside of one/a kitchen with abuela's recipes handed down? Not Taco Bell, not Taco John's (this ain't Tex-Mex). Throw them both out the window, drive through 24 hours a day, get breakfast or your standard day fare for a comparable price as either of the above. It's drive-thru only, but trust me, you won't care. read more

This place is highly hit or miss based on the previous reviews and my personal experience. The very first time we went here was roughly 2 years ago and it missed the mark. The second time I went here was last night and it tasted pretty good! So my overall observations are... 1. Greasy 2. Good portions 3. "Pricey"- Given that it's West Omaha with higher rent it's probably more than what people are used to paying for Mexican (ie South O prices). 4. Service can be slow- Maybe it's made-to-order and that's why they're slow. It honestly takes as long as the Runza on W. Center, however, maybe people expect it to be as fast as Taco Bell? 5. Friendly- The girl who took our order was engaging and friendly. I haven't had the breakfast food and we usually only go after 8PM when it's not as busy so that might have something to do with it. All to say, I would rated them 2 stars 2 years ago when we first went here, but on my most recent experience it was pretty good. read more

Let me start off with the good, the gentleman at the window was very, very friendly and that's where the good ends.. So I ordered the #2 which is 2 tacos with a side of beans and rice. The taco were exceptionally dry from the shell to the meat, almost inedible and quite bland as well. I was a little shocked based upon the reviews I had read, perhaps I ordered the wrong thing.. Or maybe it's because I ordered my lunch at 2:00 in the afternoon but nonetheless it shouldn't have been this bad.. read more

Abelardo's Mexican Fresh - Mexican Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Oh Abelardo's.... Though you reside in my home town, I did not know you before I moved away, and now I'm in love. I don't know if I can deal with a long distance relationship. My wife and I were in town for 4 days, we were jet lagged and getting up at 4am each day, and Abelardo's is always open and just around the corner from where we were staying. You would think the menu would be limited at 4am... it's not, you would think the service would suck.. it didn't (usually there were two guys there), well the food must not be as fresh... well it tasted damn amazing. The only thing we didn't try on the menu was Nachos which a friend highly recommended, the normal burritos, tacos, breakfast burritos and tacittos were all great. read more
