Pastor was very tasty and moist highly recommend. Pollo was dry and lacked seasoning. Asada was tough and needed salt. Salsa was tasty and not overly spicy. Tortillas were dry and somewhat difficult to bite through. Guests outside looked like they were eating nachos with a salsa Verde and they looked very appealing and delicious. Service was nice and friendly.

Tamalixto's was the prime lunch spot for my husband and I this summer while we were working on our garden. We'd leave with happy tummies, but wouldn't feel too heavy or bloated after, so we could go right back to work lol. I love this place. The staff are so friendly and welcoming (even if your Spanish is terrible 😅) and the food is delicious; my favourite is the carne asada torta. Oh, and their desserts? Top tier (pun intended, because you can order whole cakes from them, too!) Anyway, if you're looking for authentic Mexican food that won't break the bank, go here.

I’m not from around here and wanted the best Mexican food in town. My wife and I were not disappointed. Very authentic food and the mole was especially fantastic.

This is a great place for food. My brother and I were in the neighborhood and looking for a great place and found this spot. Excellent prices, unbeatable food and great customer service. We go there now at least weekly and will continue. I recommend this place to everyone.
Tamalixto has the best Mexican food in Omaha for the price. I'm posting this 2 months after my first post, and I recommend everyone to give them a try....

4.9 Stars!!! Definitely!! Stopped and had tacos, steak and Chicharon. DEEEEE-LICIOUS 😋
I found this little tamale shop a few months ago. I picked up some pork tamales red & green sauce. Wow! They were delicious. I used to go to south Omaha to buy tamales but no more. The dough even has flavor, good amount of meat ratio. The staff is friendly & always smiling. I routinely buy their tamales now. I even had them for Christmas dinner. Excellent food. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.

I've been to tamalixto many times after a recommendation from a friend and it has always hit the spot. One of the only places in town to get mole, their mole tamales are a delight and a must try for any fans of the sauce. I've tried their tacos and different tamales and always had a great meal. Their aguas frescas are fantastic as well and I'm excited to try many more of their desserts.
