Mexican Restaurants near La Vista

“El Vallarta is our goto for church meetings and functions. Today we came in after lunch rush and it was noisy plus the music was festively loud. We were having a very difficult time hearing each other... There were 12 adults and 8 kids. We asked if there was anything they could do about the loudness of the music, and they were able to switch it to something calmer. They went above and beyond. The free chips and salsa were wonderful! The chips were warm and not too salty! The food is well portioned and very tasty. It's not overly priced. My husband and I ate for under $30. Highly recommend!“

“I was able to get my Crisp Meat Burrito and Soft Beef Taco fix at 9:30am. It's rare to find anyplace that serves anything but breakfast food before 10:30 am! I read online that the lunch menu was served even in the morning at Amigos, I didn't believe it, so I had to find out for myself, and it's true.

The food tastes just as good as when 14th St Amigos was our late night spot while at UNL in the early 90s.

I was pleased to see ranch and four different flavors of salsa on the salsa bar. Before the salsa bar returned following the pandemic, there was a charge for a small condiment cup of ranch. BiG improvement, there. I don't believe we'll ever see a return to the pre-pandemic salsa bar, with jalapeño slices and the warm queso pump, but the Diablo salsa is plenty spicy so I didn't miss the jalapeño slices (and it's a jalapeño spicy, not over the top habanero or ghost pepper.)

You never know what you'll get for service at a fast food place, but today here in LaVista, the young lady at the counter was helpful, friendly, and smiley.

After several years away, this is just what the doctor ordered.“

“We got burritos to take camping and they were amazing! We heated them up in a pan on low heat with some foil on top and they were perfect.“

“Taco Bell is my new favorite restaurant! I had about 15 tacos, 5 burritos, and 15 quesadillas. I would definitely recommend to come and eat here this might be the best food I have ever had. Which is crazy because of how obese I am and how much food I have ate in the past. When I took my first bites into the food I became filled with glee.“

“My wife and I were in town for the "Beyond Van Gogh" exhibit at the Mid-America Center. Afterward, we looked up restaurants near us and chose La Sierra because several reviews mentioned authentic cuisine. We were not misled. The menu is small and straight forward. Pick your fillings and choose it in either a gordita, burrito, quesadilla or on a plate. We both got selections as gorditas. My wife ordered: Asado De Puerco, Picadillo Verde and Picadillo Rojo. I ordered: Papas Con Carne, Papas Con Chorizo and Deshabrada. I also wound up getting a burrito with Machaca. All the meats were seasoned nicely and delicious. Both the verde and rojo salsas they brought out enhanced the food. The rojo does have a kick (same sauce as in the Desshbrada) but the heat didn't linger so eating it was enjoyable. The margarita I ordered was delicious, made with real lime juice. Some people might complain because it is regular sized, served in a glass roughly the size of a martini glass. It isn't a gigantic gimmick you find in a lot of American-Mexican restaurants. It hit the spot! The fruit empanadas were lovely, the crust similar to a sugar cookie with strawberry or apricot. We tried both and thought the apricot won by a hair. Its sweet flavor was slightly stronger than the strawberry. The service was excellent, both our server and the gentleman from the kitchen (maybe owner) who brought out food to the table were extremely friendly and a pleasure to speak with. We've marked La Sierra in our "must do again" list and when we care back in Omaha, we will be stopping in.“
