    Never again! I ordered 3 beef tacos at 4.25 a taco with 20 cents of meat in all three. On a positive note, your shells are great ...

    This place has great chips and their taco shells are amazing. However; I ordered 3 beef tacos at 4.25 a taco. This is what the meat looked like in EVERY taco. There not 50 cents of meat in all 3 tacos. Sorry, but this is the last time I will order from here.

    One of our favorite local spots!!! They have the best crispy beef shredded tacos around! I had one plus a chicken tostada and the hubs had their carne asada street tacos with the BEST rice and beans in the county! If you haven't tried La Villa, go now!!! If you haven't been is awhile, go back! Support a Lincoln local family treasure.

    The Food is AMAZING and the service is even better! The gentleman that works there takes pride in the food and service and it shows! This is a great place and have had a great experience every time I order! Oh and they have the best ice t

    15. Two Enchiladas Dinner

    I moved to the area from the bay area and it's been hard to find a good Mexican restaurant since moving here. I'm Mexican and Guatemalan and I love to cook but some nights I just don't want to and I've been looking for a good restaurant. I Ordered a hard shell beef taco no guac and it was pretty good. (8/10) I also ordered the 2 enchiladas with green sauce and rice and beans. The rice is pretty good (8/10) The beans were a 7/10 good beans. The enchiladas were good but the sauce tasted like it was from a can. It was still good but i like verde sauce from scratch. The enchiladas were also rolled a little sloppy so they u folded but nonetheless I would give them a 7.5/10. Overall, it was a good meal. I wish that I would have gotten just the hardshell tacos with guacamole. I feel like that would've been a great meal.

    A "medium" side of rice and beans

    Was looking for a place to get a side of rice and beans to go with our dinner at home. Picked this place because it was close to our home. We walked in to order. Well, apparently for a medium side of beans and rice it is $20?! At first I was like whatever, but as soon as we got it, I couldn't believe I spent $20 on such a little amount of food. Lastly, it took a good 15 minutes for something as simple as rice and beans. Keep in mind, we were the only ones in the restaurant the entire time... I can't attest for any of their other food; however, I was absolutely caught off guard when I waisted $20 on this....

    Came here with some friends and had the best service ever. They were fast, accommodating, friendly and the food was exceptional. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for something in a smaller scale.

    Refried beans cardboard container split out of container, what a mess!

    Pick ANOTHER Restaurant! Worst ever!! Past experience was great, current experience: 2 large rice=$30.00! 2 large salsa=&28.00! 1 large refried beans =$15.00! 1 chips & sala=$6.00 Just under $85.00! Salsa was put into multiple styrofoam containers, rice was put into cardboard containers (pulled any & all moisture from rice), refried beans beans put into same cardboard containers (as if it were leftover takeout from eating in-house). The refried beans stuck to the cardboard container & imploded! I was able to maybe save 1/4 of beans. The beans were watered down & disgusting. This is not the 1st, but the last time I order from this restaurant. Beware, this restaurant is ONLY taking into consideration their bottom line revenue. I have been a bi-weekly customer for several years, however the quality is severely reduced & pricing severely increased. I'll open a can of refried beans & make my own rice going forward. This establishment is not interested in providing a decent product or service, it's just what's convenient to them. I'm out........

    I tried La Villa for the first time in a long while. I opted for takeout and brought my lunch home. The food was good. Nicely packaged, decent sized portions and tasty. My order included the Two Tacos Dinner, a Tostada along with extra Rice and Beans. The tacos were filled with shredded beef along with extra guacamole in crispy shells. Delicious and filling, particularly with the rice and beans that came with the meal. My Tostada was also very good with large pieces of well-seasoned pork. This was a full meal by itself. As it turns out, I did not need the extra rice and beans I ordered...but I ate them anyway!! Prices were very competitive.

    Great food!!!

    Lol.... Totally running errands this week during holidays and decided to stop in...no time to cook. Well, I guess you can't be happy all the time. Tacos stale, rubbery, and chicken too cold to consume. Had to pop in microwave and try to "save it". :( Didn't help. Oh well, no worries, it's just an indication it's, time to cook at home now :)

    My husband and I were split on the taste of this place. He grew up eating taquitos and loved the taste of the beef ones! I keep comparing each place with my favorite Mexican restaurant in Sacramento and thought this place was middling, therefore 4 stars instead of 3 or 5.

    I had some jokes to make when I drove by and saw the name of this restaurant on my way to Thunder…read moreValley Casino for a concert. But they definitely got the last laugh when I went for a birthday celebration last Thursday. Every one of the six omakase dishes was impeccably executed with the freshest, locally sourced produce and ingredients and chef-y flourishes. I greatly savored everything and ate my words. The interior is moody and elegant, perfect for any occasion, and the service could not have been better. A Lincoln gem!

    Quaint little spot that I was curious about because of the name. Just a bar and a small narrow area…read morefor tables. Service is very attentive & friendly. I didn't know what to expect, but based on the name, I knew I was coming for omakase. Andrew explained what it was, a fusion of Japanese & Mexican cuisine with locally grown ingredients all prepared at the bar. (It appeared that the kitchen was just for dishes & supplies.) He said some things I couldn't translate in my head (not because it wasn't English but because I have trouble hearing), but i knew I wanted Omakase, so confirmed we were going with that. They are very attentive to allergy sensitivity as they asked prior to preparing the meal. Be prepared for the price at 85pp, but it was absolutely delicious. Each 1 of the 6 course meal was a unique blend of the cultural flavors. The staff explains each plate as it comes out in carefully plated presentations. I also had the honey glazed ice cream topped with caviar. Everything was delicious. I was able to walk in but I happen to come in before the dinner rush. I recommend making reservations if you wanted to assure a spot.

There are plenty of delicious options to mix and match, so every visit feels like a mini salsa adventure before the main course. The service is just as impressive. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and more than happy to offer recommendations if you're having a hard time deciding. It's the kind of customer service that makes you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. The spot is clean and friendly! I ordered the carnitas platter, and it did not disappoint. The meat was tender, juicy, and incredibly fresh, making every bite better than the last. If you're looking for flavorful food, excellent service, and a place you'll want to come back to, this is it. I'll definitely be returning for another plate!

Most disappointing is that we ordered delivery, wrote asking for chips and salsas, and got no chips and salsa despite ordering multiple sides of guac and beans and typing it clearly in. My mom called and there were various excuses and they offered credit for the guac, but the truth is that's a big game changer if it's absent when you order Mexican food. We don't live here so a credit isn't super useful. I'd go for the chile relleno and burrito. The rest prob not.
