Customer Reviews
Well after a day in Bushnell park we decided to stop for an snack and this place was in a walkable distance. My wify and I like to sit on the bar when snacking only, so we walked directly, the bartender was really friendly and welcome us with water and ask us if we want chips and salsa and obviously we say yes. We order guacamole and the street corn dip, both of them were pretty good, the guac combines with the chips and salsa just amazing. Happy hour many is a blast, got some mexican draft beer for few dollars. The bartender keep checking on us really friendly and we have small conversations with him about random things in NE, lol. I do recommend this place 100%.
After seeing "Mark Twain Tonight" at TheaterWorks, a fabulous show with Richard Thomas, we were hungry and found our way to this lovely Mexican Cantina (OK, Grill). The service was swift and friendly, with salsa and chips landing seconds after we were seated. A nice selection of beverages complimented a variety of my favorite Mexican dishes. My son wolfed a Quesadilla, spouse loved the Fish Tacos, and the BBQ Pulled Pork Enchilladas were beyond delicious. The music was great, not too loud, and the decor very Cantinesque. I only wish it was closer to home! Gracias for a great meal!
I gave it 3 stars to be fair. The atmosphere is nice and welcoming. The music was good. The service was great. I had a really nice waiter/bartender. But I wasn’t really satisfied with the food to be honest. I ordered the shrimp enchiladas. The shrimps tasted like frozen shrimp from a bag. The cheese sauce was a bit overwhelming and the dish was bland overall. The red sangria wasn’t that good. It just tasted very sweet and tasted like there was more bar ingredients than red wine. The rice was ok. But the black beans were lacking flavor and sauce. It was like if they drained the can of Beans and just heated it up in the pot. I’ve had really good enchiladas before which usually comes with the option of a red,green, or mole sauce. This wasn’t the greatest Mexican dish. The chips and salsa was
Nice looking restaurant. The food is okay. Very friendly staff but inattentive. We waited quite a while for our food, but they were apologetic at the end of the day and gave us a discount on our food. Plus, the desserts would have been on the house if we had ordered any.
This was a delightful dinner experience and we truly enjoyed our first time here. The restaurant is located in the heart of the downtown neighborhood and is easily accessible to the local event centers. The food was delicious and remarkably flavorful with very good quality and portion sizes that you very much get your money’s worth. The staff was so very friendly and attentive to the table and I could hear our customers saying the same thing. The atmosphere was festive and welcoming too. Parking is limited to the street so be aware of that potential limitation. It is also highly recommended to seek out a reservation for busier nights.
