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.

All of our food orders came out hot, fresh, and just like we requested. The fajita trio is loaded with meat, peppers, and onions. My burrito was filled with meat, and the queso was hot. Plus, the bowls of salsa add even more flavor. Our server was hit or miss on his English, but he did not hesitate to go get his manager to assist as needed. The restaurant has been revamped with paint that gave it a fresh look. Overall, probably some of the best Mexican in the local area, I highly recommend it.

Don't sleep on this place, right off the interstate.

I walk in and the dining area is an empty floor. A bunch of tables are now in the old pool table location, lit by 4 4' fluorescent lights. Got the new "improved menu" that is now one page and get this everything is $9.95. Meal came and both of us were unimpressed. I'm going to pass on this place. There are other places that are much better for Mexican food. Stopped in here tonight for dinner. Saw the promoted ad on Yelp and said "that's where the pool hall was" Pulled into parking lot and the parking lot and exterior lights were off. The only sign on was an LED open sign behind one of the doors. I pulled the door, and right in my face was the open sign. Gee, should have opened the other door. Walk inside and this is a big place, tables for 20-30 groups. 3 tables were taken and I decided to have dinner and sit at the bar. Definitely a Mexican flare to this place. The monstrous beer coolers were 80% filled with Mexican Beers and Sodas. The menu took me 20 minutes to review and so many choices. I settled on the #33 combo and a house margarita. After about 20 Minutes my 4 item combo came out. 1) Relleno - outstanding and done correctly 2) enchilada- surprisingly good. Real beef not ground 3) soft taco - I would have been content with 2 4) Bean Tostada - last to eat, a little soggy, but good. A 6 page menu. A bit overwhelming. So many things to try. I'll definitely be back to try more. In my opinion, they just need some signage outside and a bit more promotions

I don't know but service was horrible. Sat for 10+ minutes before the gal took our drink order. By then, we just ordered our food. Didn't want to wait that long to order food. Food came timely and it was excellent. Waitress never did check back or she would have seen my soda was empty. I ran out of my Diet Pepsi and was never given a refill. I had my glass sitting on the edge of the table and several waiters walked by it. Our waitress finally came by with the bill and took my glass to refill - I never did get a Diet Pepsi refill. This is the smallest tip I've given in a long time but it was more than she deserved! Don't know if we'll be back or not. Lincoln has several good Mexican restaurants. Dine at your risk.
