I was craving mexican food, to be specific Carnitas. Carnitas are my go to, my favorite. I've…read morebecome an expert (not really). La Casa is in the old part of town and the parking on the street was convienent. It was very clear that this was a family run place, there were a few kids running around. I asked the nice lady who sat me if Carnitas were an option. When she returned she said that Yes, I could order Carnitas. It did not take long at all for my food to arrive. The plate was HOT. The drink selection was slim and I asked for Ice tea. The tea was watered down and didn't taste good at all. The pork was ok, fatty and kind of dry and tough. The rice and beans were hot, but bland. The tortillas were absolutely delicious and the service was good. I really like to support small family run businesses and will continue to do so. I may just skip this one the next time I'm in town.

My friend ordered something she had there before and had them put it in her phone so she remembered what to get the next time. Well, it was completely different this time. We ordered two meals to go. Asked for the chips and salsa for the to go orders and was told we would have to pay extra for it. Why can I get chips and dip at no extra charge eating in but charge extra for my to-go meals????? Will not be back ...

Driving cross country recently, I was made to pitstop in Kearney due to a snowstorm & interstate…read moreclosures. It was already after 9 pm and few food options were available. Searching the web via smartphone, Burgos Queen popped up as an option open late. I'm thankful that this suggestion was recommended over fast food. Driving the roadways, fast food is the most convenient and available option. However, not as tummy friendly as most other foods. Kearney has many options in the FF category and many were still open despite the weather conditions. (By the following morning and with snow, many of the same locations did not open for the day.) While viewing food photos of Burgos on the web, I made a gut choice to try them out based on one specific photo. Their preparation of al pastor (pork) is what caught my eyes. Traditional Mexican street food style on the "trompo." For Americans, this means that the pork is piled onto a "spit" grill. Marinated with a heavy hand and a rind of pineapple sits atop. The sweetness of the fruit blends into the marinade and when meat is sliced, so with it are bits of fruit. Unfortunately due to Covid however, many taquerias (taco joints) have opted to removing the spit/grill and frying the mixture on the grill top. When doing this they often remove the pineapple too. (bah!) Another surprising discovery was their offering of birria! Attention locals.. you are lucky to have a taco joint in town that offers birria. Birria is commonly made from lamb or goat but in the US it is often made with beef, because, Americans..smh. Locals, get you some! Foodies that know about birria are reluctant to find it between our coasts. It was first offered in Chicago but didn't grow in popularity till it hit the food trucks of LA and then NYC. Queen doesn't do the all out preparation/presentation including fried tortillas with cheese, but their consomme that's placed into the taco has an enticing smell followed by flavorful explosion in mouth. It was near closing and I placed a phone order for two birria and two al pastor tacos. Had hoped to try their lengua or shrimp too but they were out or unavailable. For four tacos and a mandarin Jarritos soda, I think I paid about $11 dollars and change before tip. Food was plated onto a styrofoam, rectangular plate and covered with aluminum foil. Once back at the hotel I placed the plate down on the table and got to my wind down routine. Before I could sit down to enjoy my eats, my family had ripped into the carryout. One birria and al pastor was already devoured and red salsa nearly gone! Our room filled with pleasant smells and everyone was asking what, where, why didn't I bring more. I scratched my head about it also.. I cannot believe I found such a tasty taqueria in the middle of Nebraska.. Seriously, stop going to fast food joints and get some tasty tacos! By the next morning we were ready to leave but still wanting a repeat of the tacos so I placed a call to see what time they would open. Unfortunately due to the weather Burgos Queen was closed. However, the nice lady from the night before was there. I complimented them on the delicious food we enjoyed and shared my disappointment not being able to order food for the day. She went on to say, had she more time to prepare, she may have created a carryout for us. If they are still around the next time I'm in these parts, I'm definitely grabbing a bag of tacos! *Details. Despite not having pineapple in the al pastor, the flavors were present and tacos tasty. Many taquerias are careless to overcook pork which in my opinion kills the meat. People are still fearful of undercooking pork. I think they could prepare it low and slow and still turn out a tasty product. If you enjoy beef, the birria is a must. Trying this version first and then having the real deal elsewhere will only expand your enjoyment.

I have been to them all, several times in fact and I am here to tell you that none of them compare to Lo Mejor De Michoacan. None of them come close in fact. Do not let the outside fool you, do not let the tiny awkward parking lot fool you. It is what's inside that sets this small "Mom & Pop shop" apart. The first thing that I notice each time is how good it smells as soon as the door opens. It smells good, it smells like pork, and steak and fresh tortillas too. It is also very clean. It seems to me that this is a small family ran business, the same people greet me each time and are always super warm and welcoming. It is obvious they care and want to give you good service along with delicious food. I have taken my food to go and I have also sat down and I will say that there isn't any difference in the portion or the quality of the food. I have a hard time getting past the Carnitas each time I have been. The pork is tender and it tastes delicious consistently. The beans aren't from a can, I am willing to bet that the food here is all homemade. It tastes far too good to be from a can or a package. The tortillas are not warm, they are HOT when they get to your table, they taste so good. In my opinion they are the very best in town. The service is great too, the folks here keep the food coming and the drinks are always full, they are very polite and make your you want to come back again. If you are on the interstate looking for a place to eat, do yourself a favor, cruise into town go past the fast food and the other restaurants. It will be worth it. I can not wait to eat here again.
