The shrimp taco from the appetizer area of the menu had fresh avocado and radish and is making me salivate just remembering it, and my husband's big burrito was, as always, super tasty. After all this, we were still out of there in less that 25 bucks including tip. There are no other eats in Hastings that make me feel this happy. The new location looks great and the wait staff's uniforms are clean and professional. Huge improvement in atmosphere.

In my 10 days in town, I tried a few (but probably not all) of the Mexican restaurants, and this place was by far the best. Don't get me wrong, nothing comes close to real mexican bought from a street cart in Mexico, but for Nebraska, this place was top notch. Hastings is lucky to have it and I look forward to my next visit.

Warm and friendly.They have a decent drink selection and that made me happy right away. I ordered a draft beer, an IPA that was local to Nebraska. The menu has something for everyone, I started with the deviled eggs and they were amazing, just like Ma used to make except better they had little pieces of crispy bacon on them. Brilliant. I chose the Ribeye, Rare. I also went with a loaded baked potato. My meal arrived pretty quick and I was glad to see a piece of garlic toast. The steak was perfectly prepared, the potato was indeed loaded. I would recommend the ribeye to everyone. Our server could not have been better, she knew the menu well. Like I mentioned, the drink selection was nice. Settled for the Blanton's and an Eagle Rare to top of the night. Then the server brought up desert, oh Brother. Just what I needed. LOL, I chose the Raspberry Lemon Drop Cake. WOW WOW WOW it was delicious. I look forward to visiting the Barrel Bar again.

Surprising find for a small town in Nebraska. My hotel was just around the corner and after a long…read moreday, I did not want to have to go far. The interior of the restaurant is something you might expect to find in Lincoln or Omaha, not in a strip mall in Hasting. The hostess greeted me pleasantly and sat me promptly. I ordered a side salad and double bacon burger with Brussel sprouts on the side. The salad came out quickly. It was basic garden salad and the blue cheese was good. Shortly after I finished the salad, my burger arrived. It can be disappointing when the meal arrives before you finish your salad or you have to wait forever before your meal after finishing the salad. They were not busy, so I was happy to see they were not rushing and sending the burger out right away. The burger was huge. Two seven once patties with bacon and covered in melted cheese. They use a shredded cheddar, pile it high, and let it melt all over the burger. You can tell from first bite they are not using frozen patties, fresh ground beef here. The only change I would have made, it the burger was cooked medium and l prefer medium rare. The flavor was great. The burger is a little pricy at $21, but for a double burger coming in just under a pound the price is not outrageous. The single was $15, so I guess the pricing is not super high. The waitress was attentive, without being over bearing. She kept my glass filled without me having to ask. After seeing the dessert menu, I wish I would have gone with the single burger instead of the double. In the end I passed on dessert, but if I ever return I will keep that in mind.

Maybe their modus operandi is serve 10 cars in the drive thru then serve 5 in house customers. For whatever the reason, the inside service was abysmal. Car after car was served while the line inside stalled. Bookguy decided to go back to the drive-thru since it appeared now to be moving faster. Not really-- stalled while they helped inside. It was as slow as watching a 2 year-old eat peas. The driver of car behind us got out and asked the car behind her to back up so she could leave. Both cars left. Finally got to the order mic and waited a bit of time before getting our order. The sweet woman at the window presented us with an extra little bowl of chicken for our dogs, such a nice thing to do! Luckily, the usual fare of cantina chicken bowl and soft tacos with hot sauce was just as expected.
