    two plates of mexican food
    Mari A.

    Super authentic and very tasty! Friendly & amazing customer service and the man that grills outside volunteers to feed the homeless shelter which is such a huge help! Absolutely love this place.. not the nicest interior but the best food and great prices.. you won't be disappointed here :) they also make margaritas and have desserts! Stop by the grocery market next door to be impressed with this plaza and always remember it

    Authentic food. I am a very picky eater and I loved the food. the building wasn't ideal but good quick Mexican food

    I'm a sucker for a big burrito!

    Very solid, authentic Mexican restaurant just over the O St Overpass in west Lincoln. The lunch service was quick, the grande burrito was very big, and there house green and red sauces were great! The decor is simple and low budget, but you don't come here for that. The barbacoa was fantastic. I'll need to come back and try something else before bumping this up to 5 stars, but I'd give it a 4.5 star if that were possible. If I had any sense or self control I would have cut the burrito in half and had it for lunch tomorrow too, but I ate the whole thing.

    Decided to hear about this place from a few co-workers and they said the food is good so I decided to try it. First thing I notice is the airbrushed designs on the wall of the Mexican flag, American flag, the Capitol building, and the stadium. I looked through the menu and they had a great array of tasty food. I ordered enchiladas con mole Poblano and a side of beans and rice and can't forget the Horchata. So as I sit here waiting, a few minutes pass, I'm wondering where my food is. I asked the waitress what the estimated time was to get my food but she didn't know. She comes back and tells me they're making it. As for food wise, it was worth the wait. The enchiladas were delicious :)

    The menu is filled with great items. We especially like the carne asada. The chips and salsa are fresh and spiced just right

    Walked in and were greeted right away by stagf with a great attitude. Seated us in a nice table…read moreand took our drink order. I had a Julian marg (Cadillac marg, different name) yummy. I ordered the carne asada. Had a small fopa on original plate but the staff made an amazing recovery. Needless it was amazing. I ate wayyyyy to much. Overall we parked right in front and the restaurant was warm, clean with a great Hispanic feel. Best mecixan we have had so far in lincoln.

    Parking is shared parking. We were early for Sunday lunch…read more There are a mixture of booths and tables and we were attended to by our server Julio. We were seated immediately. And tended to. We were served chips and salsa. Those were made in the restaurant. Piping hot and delicious salsa. I got a mangonada margarita and a malcojete seafood. Mixture of seafood ( shrimp octopus and scallops in a hot spicy sauce with mixed vegetables- cauliflower, brocoli pepper, onions and mushrooms). My hubby got a margarita that was similar to a cadillac margarita. And carne asada. It was very chill and family friendly ; when we were there, some college kids were there in a group and they basically placed tables together to form a row for them. Highlu adaptable. Our food came delicious and piping hot. I loved my order of malcojete seafood. Flavour was fantastic. Shrimp octopus and scallops were very nicely done- succulent and juicy. Considering we are in the midwest- the seafood they cooked was fantastic. I would urge them to cut the pieces of octopus just a little larger. The scallops were small but delicious. It was a fantastic meal and Julio's service was wonderful. Hubby's carne asada was a little dry initially but Julio took notice and had the kitchen serve up a better piece. Wonderful service recovery. We will be back. This is truly one of the best mexican places we have been to here in Lincoln.
