    Street tacos-3 extra Hot, 2 mild
    Micki M.

    I've written a review for here before but not sure where it went? This family owned Taqueria is one our favorites in Lincoln. The service is fast and friendly. When dining in, they have their complimentary chips and salsa bar that's unbeatable. Now every Mexican restaurant in town has something that's better than the other. Mi Pueblito has the Best street tacos. We order it Spicy, and their salsa is incredibly tasty! Lately, I've been hooked on their burritos, those too are the best! It gets crowded at lunch but don't be discouraged, their cooks are fast. You won't be late returning to work.

    Chips and salsa
    Tom B.

    There are a number of Mexican food places in Lincoln and surrounding towns and it's nearly impossible to keep track of them all. We came here on the recommendation of a friend. The exterior of the building looks new and fresh, similar to a fast food place. The interior reveals something different. It looks like an old diner that's been converted, just starkly unlike the outside. Exterior facelift? It's also odd that they use a G Street address instead of Lincoln Blvd. Parking is wrapped around the building and somewhat limited. Menus were delivered as soon as we got seated and it's primarily typical US Style Mexican fare, nothing unusually unique. Chips and salsa arrived at the table right away, both good. The salsa has a lot of body to it, which I like. It's not a soupy tomato based sauce. I ordered a "Super Burrito" with Chili Verde and it came with all the expected items including rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, etc. I would have preferred black beans and I should have asked if that's an option. The beans that came with it were fine. Overall the burrito was quite delicious and very filling. I did find, however, that the sour cream seemed different in appearance, almost like it had separated, yet tasted just fine. I suspect mixed with the chili verde it takes on a different consistency. I washed it down with a Guava Mexican soda, a good accompaniment. Service was super friendly and prompt. We came at an off time with few patrons yet I was still amazed how quickly the food came out after ordering. A number of people came for take out orders. I definitely will go back as there are a number of dishes to try.

    Fresh, warm chips

    Nice, quiet, and quaint. My server, Maritza, was very nice and helpful. I did not order off the menu, but asked her to have the chef make whatever he thinks is best. I do wish the chips were hot, but the salsa is great! Ask for warm chips and you will get them. Maritza came out with two soft tacos, and I must say, they were both outstanding! They were just what I needed. Oh, Miritza came out with some nice fresh, warm tips for me, and they were wonderful! I will be back. ;)

    Chicken tacos

    Great spot! Food was excellent- fish tacos hit the spot. Will definitely come back if I'm in the area.

    I loved the asada tacos. The server asked if I wanted regular or spicy--I went with spicy, and they definitely delivered. The salsa had a great kick, just the kind of heat that makes my nose run a little. I'll definitely be coming back.

Dining room is cramped. Furniture is uncomfortable crap. There are telephone, electrical, security camera wires dangling from walls and ceilings. The place looks like it was last painted in the early 1970's. I took a peek into the kitchen and storage area and wished that I didn't. It's awful. Looks like a hoarder's storeroom. I tried to use the restroom. The toilet was clogged, water running over the top of the bowl. I don't know the last health department inspection grade, if an inspection has ever occurred. Really, I've eaten at 100's of sketchy cheap eats dives in dozens of developing countries, this place is worse than most of those. Despite the yummy food I don't think I'd return. My spouse and her sister also loved their food but were disappointed with the room.

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.

It's a very modern, small restaurant, and the bar seating is definitely the focal point of the space, though the overall vibe felt a little cold with minimal decoration. I'd love to come back to try their full omakase experience eventually, but the service was a real letdown. Even though we were the only two people in the restaurant most of the time, we felt like an inconvenience. At one point, I said out loud that we were ready to order; the staff including our waitress stopped for a second, looked at us, and then just went back to what they were doing without acknowledging us. It was as if we were on her time, and she was making it clear that she would get to us when she felt like it, not when we were ready. The wait for food was also way too long. Despite being the only ones there, I waited about 40 minutes for my ceviche mixto bowl ($22). For a raw dish that requires no actual cooking, that kind of delay in such a small space is hard to justify. We also had the broiled oysters ($15) and oyster shooters ($5), which were solid. I noticed the drink menu didn't have many sweet cocktail options, so I asked if they could make me a lemon drop instead; and they granted the request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The food and drinks are great, but the service and kitchen speed really need to be more attentive to match the quality of the menu.
