50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Lincoln

“Eat here often. Food is very good. Service wonderful. We all love the place!“

“Amazing food and the staff is always so friendly and kind. We love Agave and even our kids are always asking to go. The restaurant is really cute on the inside too.“

“We had Super Taco cater my husband‘s Retirement Party & it was a huge success!!! Everyone loved their food & there was definitely plenty for the whole group with even extra for leftovers!!! The planning process was wonderful as they were so helpful with the menu selection, giving us samples to try along the way & assisting us in knowing how much to order. The food pick up went without a hitch & it was so easy to get everything laid out & ready to serve up to our guests. Thank you Super Taco for a wonderful & delicious celebration.“

“Family Dinner Time! Decided to finally check out Los Cabos by the south 84th street Walmart. Directly across from Big Red Keno it's a fairly unassuming location but was pretty packed when we went on a week night. Much bigger than it seems, with tables winding all throughout the space.

We received a Very warm welcome upon entering and were seated immediately. Chips & Salsa and waters were brought out pretty quickly. Drinks arrived not too long after. Our order was taken but then took around 30 minutes to be delivered. Kinda hard with 2 hungry young ones but we made it work.

Medium sized child got a Kids Chicken Enchilada Meal. I seriously blinked and it was gone. Her middle name is Beans and she was in her element! Little one had an *$8* Hot Dog 😐. Every effort to convince him to order something involving a tortilla was futile and ultimately it just wasn't worth the fight. He actually loved it and his fries and cleaned his plate as well!

My husband who is Obsessed with a similar dish from another local fave was excited to try their Pollo Poblano! Chicken topped with poblanos, mushrooms, and a cream sauce it definitely earned a mention. He said the rice had a great flavor!

I have a harder time eating at local Mexican places. Although they have a vegetarian menu, most of it contains rice & beans which is pretty much guaranteed to Not be vegetarian. I got the V-6 Combo which included a Chile Relleno, Spinach Enchilada, and Mushroom Quesadilla. I was More than pleasantly surprised! Chile Relleno was respectable with yummy cheese. The other veggies were seasoned and delicious and just done right!

I think this will be a Great place to return for date night. Margs look yummy, staff was friendly, price point is Excellent!

“I love this place. A hidden gem. Best salsa around. Hands down. I can’t say enough good things about the food and margaritas. Please give it a try, you won’t regret it“

“Super friendly staff and great food!!“

“Rest of the fam had dinner without me so I needed to pick up something yummy on the way home. Cue Taco Inn by 70th & O street.
Veggie Burrito, no tomatoes or onions, extra olives. There's a charge for the addition but when my fatty Burrito weighs 10.2 lbs it's totally cool.
Potato Things with both Ranch and Cheese sauce. Don't ask why, just trust 😆. Alternating or double dipping are both acceptable. I had a bit leftover for a late night snack!!!“

“Went through the drive thru tonight at about 9pm and the lady(wish I would have paid attention to her name tag)who took our order and worked the window had the most amazing customer service and gave the most friendly, genuinely happy smile!!! Too many people are quick to write a negative review and too few don’t take the take out to give a warm fuzzy and comment excellent customer service! This beautiful soul deserves the recognition and a pat on the back for being a ray of sunshine!!!“

“we had a fantastic dinner at La Paz tonight. The black bean soup is so very good!!!“

“I’ve been a loyal customer of Amigos for over 30 years. I grew up enjoying cheesy banditos dipped in spic(e)y cheese sauce and mountain dews on an almost weekly basis. Back when they utilized the 2nd floor of their Lincoln restaurants for parties and had the 2nd drive thru lane serviced with a rickety (albeit forward thinking) tray/delivery track system. Nowadays I eat there once or twice a month or so, and it’s always an enjoyable meal. Everything comes out fresh nearly 95% of the time and always hits the spot.“

“I went inside & ordered to go. With being dead/hearing impaired I struggle to go through the drive through. Someone took my order right away. My order was ready within 4 minutes. The dining room was clean. Our food was hot & very tasty. I would recommend this fast food place to others 😊“

“Tried the street tacos and they are so delicious! Very well cooked and very tasty“

“Great place to take the family!“

“Love the crisp meat burritos! The staff is super nice and helpful here. Price is pretty reasonable! I like how clean the restaurant was! We had a lady come out and check on us when we were eating and she asked us if we wanted any crispitos and we said yes! She brought some fresh ones out to us! Will definitely recommend this place to all my friends and family! Will be returning myself when I come back home to Nebraska to visit!“

“The food is very good. I had the green chilli plate and it was flavorful and the portions plentiful. Service was fast food counter style and it was responsive. They have a drive thru but I dined in. Tastefully decorated and very clean. Friendly staff very helpful.

Parking: Parking in not a concern here. Well lit newly resurfaced.

Kid-friendliness: Certainly family friendly“

“Great time with my daughter and grandchildren.“

“Absolute diamond in the rough. Been there a few times and it's always so good. The people serving are always friendly and have great recommendations. I get their chilaquiles and they are always on par. It's a hidden gem located in the gateway mall“

“Ngl the chicken and steak from the downtown one taste like absolute rubber it dont even taste like real food but the one on o st by the mall kinda good I think it’s because of the old guy in the back that cooks for them in the morning I’d lowkey give him a “

“This Amigos is my neighborhood drive-thru coffee shop. I come here for breakfast and coffee before work. Maria and Abraham are always friendly and they remember their customers. I get a latte that doesn't cost a fortune and a breakfast sandwich that's fresh and cooked perfectly. Five stars for sure.“

“Birria queso tacos were legit! Fast counter service. I’m towing a camper from Illinois to Colorado. Pulled in at 2pm on a Thursday and there is parking plus an event center. This is right of I-80. I was in and out in 15 minutes! Clean bathrooms. Awesome lunch stop!“
