    Chicken tacos - on soft shell corn tortillas...spectacular!
    audrey W.

    This is the best Mexican restaurant in Omaha and its in Wahoo! We stumbled upon it, right next to the Runza and went three times in one week. Seriously, the al pastor is phenomenal (we learned about this on Netflix' Taco Chronicles) and everything we've tried is amazing. The family that owns and runs the restaurant are personable and work hard to satisfy customers. We will work our way through this menu, for sure.

    Tamale and enchilada

    Loved the food. The whole family enjoyed their meal. The shrimp cocktail was amazing! We had heard about the breakfast burritos here but was looking for a dinner place. Glad we tried it! The ambiance lacks a bit. Stranger Things was on the TV and loud. We had to keep distracting my 5 year old from seeing the tv. The bathroom was clean and freshly painted with bright colors. There isn't necessarily an ambiance other than horror from the tv. But everyone was friendly. The service was okay. The food was brought out exactly as ordered which was awesome! We will definitely eat here again as the food was great.

    Taco salad and fajitas

    This spot is great! Excellent service and amazing food. Chips and salsa prior to food coming out was yummy and helped curb our appetites. The taco salad came with shredded chicken which was delicious, and the fried shell was made just right. My mom loved her fajitas and all the yummy toppings it was served with. We will definitely be back!

    Carnitas and chorizo tacos! Sooo good! Add the green sauce.

    The best chilaquiles I've ever had bar none. Not much for ambience but great food, great prices, and great people.

    Really good carne asada tacos. I will order extra radish next time. And there will be a next time. That's all I have to say.

    Way too slow, and screwed up my order of literally two items. Disappointing.

    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.
