    Ordered "crispy", they confirmed "regular", then gave us raw corn tortillas.
    Carol E.

    Just a disaster these days. It used to be a 4x weekly drive-thru for us, but we're done. We went for Taco Tuesday on June 18th and ordered two of the specials. I asked for one to be crispy, and one to be fried flour. She repeated back, "So that's 10 total, five regular, 5 fried flour?" Yes. We waited behind one car, but there was nobody behind us. It definitely was not a rush. When we got home and opened the bag, we had five tacos in raw corn tortillas (nothing crispy or regular about that!), and 5 fried flour. But on the fried flour, this (photo) is what Lina's is selling as a $3 taco!! Total spent, more than $19. The raw corn tortillas weren't edible, so we split the four fried flour between us (I'm not counting the nearly empty one as even being a taco). $19+ and we each had two sub-par fried flour tacos. I'm not counting the nearly empty one as a taco. Disgraceful.

    Shredded Beef Taco

    Felt a little snacky in the mid afternoon, stopped in for a couple tacos. I tried a shredded beef taco and a ground beef taco. They were delicious, I easily could of smashed down a few more. I think the shredded beef was a touch better. They had cheese and lettuce for toppings. The price was nice too. Next time I stop in, I'm going to sit down inside and get an actual meal. It was a cool little place, the service was super friendly and quick. Do recommend!

    The burritos, breakfast or otherwise, are heaven. Lina's is the best drive thru Mexican food in Omaha (i.e., *way* better than Abelardo's).

    Torta

    Yup, torta i got speaks itself, plus, the drive through dude who was taking orders had an attitude for some reason. Overall very bad service

    Inside

    Lina's looks like an old bank on the outside and a wannabe diner on the inside. On first glance, Lina's is clean. On further inspection you notice duct tape on the bottom of the bar stools to cover up rust and other various cracks and crevices that need some TLC. The inside seating area was incredibly hot. We really wanted to spend more time talking, but, could not stand the heat anymore. The front counter worker wasn't very talkative, but, answered our questions and took our order without complaint. Outside of the meat on the carnitas plate, which tasted old and over cooked, the food was great. The guacamole was creamier than we like, but, had a great taste with a little kick. The hubs said the Carne Asada Tacos were fantastic. The small bar area with salsa, hot sauces and veggies was a happy bonus. My advice, go inside, order your food to-go, take advantage of the condiment station, then enjoy it in the comfort of your own home. Happy eating Yelpers!

    I hit this place about once a month. Great breakfast burritos. Great tacos. The wife loved the enchiladas. This place never misses. !!

    Love the drive-thru! Must get the nachos and chimichangas. Reminds me a lot of Abelardos. Fast and inexpensive.

Not only is the food incredible, but the staff are the absolute best and the ambiance is very welcoming and comfortable. We started with some chips and dips, and the queso was delicious. It was the perfect amount of spice but still creamy and cheesy. The salsas were also very flavorful and a great start to our meal. I chose to get the carne asada for dinner and it was absolutely AMAZING. The steak was so juicy and tender, and seasoned to perfection. I was so impressed, and it was perfectly paired with some tortillas de maiz, the guacamole, and rice and beans. I would absolutely get this meal again. Not only was the food delicious, but the staff were incredibly sweet, helpful, and provided great recommendations. I will absolutely be returning here again!

The tacos were very good! And the enchiladas were fantastic. We both had margaritas and they were very tasty and the tequila sneaks up on you quick! The place used to be an Old Chicago, so it's a little funny being in there but it was clean and well taken care of.

    Honestly so good, and some of the most unique and authentic options of any place I've been. They…read morehave a cute set up for photos and it's so bright and cheery inside! The service was fantastic, and it felt like a true family restaurant. The chips were so good, and the salsa was spicy but not too much for people with sensitive palates. I love this style of chips, not a thin restaurant style but a thicker, more savory bite. We went through one portion before our food got to us and they brought more out when I asked. I highly recommend the tacos. I made a mistake and asked for birria not quesabirria tacos, so make sure to specify that if you want quesabirria (with cheese). But, the birria was good anyways! I also got the taco macho (see the pic for what's inside), and wish I would've ordered 2 of those! My husband got the huitlacoche and squash blossom tacos and they were both so good. I was so impressed they had huitlacoche as an option, I've never seen that before! The drinks were ordered and delivered from the server, but she said since they're working on a liquor license they have a bar next door that makes them. If you order a drink with your food, they charge for the drinks and food separate for that reason. I liked my jalapeño margarita! My husband got a cantarito and said it's the best one he's had from all the places we've tried to far!

The streetcar boondoggle is not affecting their block so parking is available. Decor is calming. I did not opt for an adult beverage as they were a bit pricey and I needed to retain focus. Settled on chicken enchiladas. Very tasty with some kick. The cheese was drizzled on top rather than baked through. Service was exceptionally friendly, I suspect from the bartender/proprietor. Would definitely return if in the area, but for now I am generally avoiding streetcar construction chaos. If you are downtown anyway, go.
