    The food was amazing here! The spices and textures were all amazing! Definitely go hungry! The portion sizes were massive! I need to go back and try more dishes! And the margaritas were some of the best I personally have! The only reason I am giving this place a 4 star review overall. Is because the language barrier made things a little difficult to order. But DO NOT let that stop you from enjoying great drinks and fantastic food!

    This place was great! Wound up here accidentally and I'm glad I did. I had the carnitas and everything was incredible. The pork was tender and perfectly cooked, the pico tasted really fresh and the avocados were perfectly ripe, and the beans were amazing! The chips they brought to the table when we sat down tasted like they were freshly fried, and the salsa was wonderful. The tortillas were flavorful and fresh. The place was busy as can be, people were coming in the whole time we were there. The service was great but I did have to wait a very long time to pay my check. Anyway, I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu items. There was so much shown that looked really good.

    Trying all the Mexican restaurants out on 24th street, and happened to come here on a Saturday during lunch when they were having live Mexican music. Such a joy! I love the authentic Mexican atmosphere, authentic Mexican music, and authentic Mexican food. Belkis was my waitress and she was amazing! I ordered a carne asada taco and a carne asada sope. Taco meat was a little bit greasy on the taco, that's just cuz I'm used to Abelardo's dry meat, LOL. Everything tasted great. The salsa that comes with the chips is freaking amazingly delicious! Belkis even gave me extra containers to take all the hot sauce to go! I definitely had an awesome time on a random Saturday.

    I have been here in the past and have had a good experience. This time around I am very unimpressed… Our waiter said we needed to wait for tortillas because “they were in the microwave”, our sopes and tacos dorados are all stale, I assume they were microwaved? Oh and the kids meal of macaroni was $8, with no side. Literally a cup of macaroni. Leaving here… definitely not impressed. Just a small reminder to cook at home, where we aren’t so disappointed for a $200 meal!!

    First time we went here although living in omaha 4 year's not. The food was amazing and served in average time if not for being wall to wall people I'm sure would have been faster. Our waitress was friendly, fast, and she was very attentive to our needs. The food was top notch and portions were huge had no problem paying the prices for the amazing fresh food. They also had mariachi band which consisted of two men ask you to serenade you. I recommend this place for a laid-back romantic time dinner or just a lunch break and beer day.

    First, thanks for bringing your flavors South to Bellevue (Ft Crook) area! The sweltering heat makes a roadside food truck easier to drive by without stopping; your 2-person crew welcomed me, took my order, and waited on me as if I stopped at your brick & mortar place! I appreciate the ice cold Mandarin soda for a noon hour break from a motorcycle ride. The tent shaded my ride while the crew finished my chicken burrito. My apologies for not snapping a picture of the finished dish, but I could taste the fresh ingredients. Your ample serving size can easily make a meal for two adults. Keep sharing your talents throughout Metro Omaha!

    Very good food and service wasn't bad. Went for my birthday and they played happy birthday and brought out flan for free. The fajitas was big enough to share between two for future reference lol. The drinks are in a bottle though so no free refills only on water and tea.

    I was excited to try this establishment. I ordered the Combo Fajita platter. It was sizzling hot but I felt cheated because it had 3 shrimp. The rice and bean puree was cold. I didnt like that at all. I'll give the establishment 1 more try before I say nay

    Extremely pleasant staff, we were greeted from the minute we walked in. Brought a friend with me, she will be a return customer too. She had Shrimp & I had Steak, both were top shelf! Ice cold beers always. Getting hungry writing this review..

So yummy! i wanna go back already. also i love that they give you a huge glass of water with a lime in it.

    Good food and drinks! Some items overpriced for quantity given. Service was okay but not much attention given. The orange juice was $7 which may have just been wrong on the ticket but seemed excessive. The shrimp cocktail was mediocre but tasty nonetheless. Would try again but unfortunately not a top pick for me, much less in the southern Omaha area which has tons of great restaurants featuring foods from Central and Latin America. (This was during lunch time on a weekday so may have a better experience on a weekend or dinner time.)

    Really good food. I’m not a seafood person but my wife is. She loves the fettuccine shrimp huge portions and reasonably priced. Does get packed on the weekends. Atmosphere is authentic Mexican.

    I only gave 1star because I had to. I went to the bathroom first to wash my hands. Employee opens stall door after stinking up the place. Doesn't wash his hands and goes right back to work. Another customer and I told the manager who just shrugged his shoulders. Disgusting.! Have never ate at a McDonald's since.

    El Dorado is delicious! Their soup is perfect for a cold day in Omaha and well priced. This place has it all tacos, soup, and seafood. And I highly recommend their shrimp pasta w/ bread ! It’s delicious

    Best Mexican food in town! Incredible fresh homemade salsa and chips to start off. Fantastic seafood options. Ceviche was amazing! Avocado salsa to top everything off is the best.
