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.

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.

Recently I did the fajitas again (so good) and tried the shredded beef chimichanga. The queso sauce is good, I even saw fresh jalepenos in the pico served alongside it. I love the traditional salsa, but I always get the hot verde as well, and additionally can never pass on their signature watermelon jalepeno margarita. Service is spectacular, efficient and quick. Last time we ordered food was out in under ten minutes. This is an old converted Pizza Hut, and they have put their own style on it. What a great spot in Lincoln!

The owner greeted us shortly after we arrived and welcomed us to the restaurant. Our server appeared quickly and from placing our order to receiving our drinks and food, I think this is an all time record of the quickest turn around I have ever experienced! . Wow! They are efficient here. We ordered a Negro Modelo and classic margarita. One of the top margaritas I've had (and I've had a lot). I got it on the rocks with a salt rim. Not sure blended is an option but on the rocks is We ordered carne asada (steak) burrito and quesadilla al pastor. Both were delicious. The marinated steak was so flavorful. Yum! We were passing through on our way to the Grand Tetons so it's unlikely we'll be back, which is a shame. This restaurant was a hit for us. Oh, we also got these lollipops which were mango with chile flavoring. Love the chicken shape.

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.
