I have been wanting to try this place for a while now and it definitely disappointed me. It’s definitely overpriced for what you get. Chicken was okay. Rice was mushy way to much water. You also get beans with it and it’s mostly all juice only a few beans with a couple of bacon pieces. Not sure what’s up with the tortillas also they are paper thing. I really wish this place would have been better.

This is my weekly hangout for tacos with the co-workers. Their tacos are "street" style with your choice of meat along with cilantro and onion. You can order more toppings for additional charge. The tortillas are well oiled and prepped, and their steak is great. You will usually get two salsas with your tacos, a mild green and a medium red. The flavor on their medium red is fantastic and really elevates the spice and punch of the tacos. Oh yes, and they're very affordable. Tacos run just $1.75 and are only $1.25 Monday-Wednesday, so you can get a plate full for less than eight bucks. It's not a busy place on weekday afternoons, but the the food is worth it!

We are not from Lincoln but did a quick search on Siri for Mexican restaurants. La Cabaña came up with good reviews on Yelp, 4 star average. After going there for dinner, I checked the reviews to understand why our meal pretty much sucked. Most of the good reviews were from 2017. It has a huge bar area and equally huge dining area. At 5 pm on a Sat. night we were the only customers. The service was terrible. It took forever for the girl to take our drink orders and even longer to take our food order. She did not appear to want to be a server tonight. My husband had to get up and go to the bar to order a second beer. I was never offered a soda refill or water. She forgot the guacamole dip until my husband again got up and went to the bar to ask about it. He ordered a chicken fajita burrito. He said it was just a plain boiled chicken burrito, wrapped in foil, no rice or beans with no flavor at all. I ordered chicken enchilada suizas. The chicken was flavorable, the green peppers raw. Rice was dry and refried beans not tasty. I left those. Th complimentary chips and salsa, chips were good, salsa was merely tomato sauce with chopped onions and cilantro in it. However, the guacamole dip was delicious. Would we go back? Not a chance.

While visiting Lincoln, we opted to give the local Mexican cuisine (not a chain). Having passed La Cabana on Cornhisker, we thought we'd give it a try. We found it odd that at 5:30 on Saturday, the place would be empty. When we left, we understood why. First, the server acted she didn't even want to be there, much less serve us. The dip for the chips was watered-down tomato sauce. I had to seek out the server to remind her we ordered guacamole for the chips. I ordered a fajita chicken burrito. When it came, it was biled chicken inside a tortilla without any spices or other ingredients. Can we spell bland? After waiting for the bill, I had to again seek out the server. We will never be back and will never recommend this establishment.

The Guadalajara Style Tacos may well be the best Mexican food in Lincoln.
You can buy Eli's green salsa to-go! That way you can drink it at home.
when I worked 2nd shift they did give me the daily sp @ my lunch time
I agree..the Horchata is too expensive and too sweet. Could also do with a kid's menu.
