Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Who would have expected a stellar authentic Mexican restaurant deep in the heart of Nebraska? Hands? Not me, that is until I had occasion to spend a bit of time there and discover the strong Mexican (and Salvadoran as well) population in this burg. How and why, I have no idea and it's not my main concern. What is of interest, then, is how this place stands and delivers. In a word (or so), exceedingly well. This place cares about getting it right, which is frankly rarer than it should be in any given city and this place is the real deal all the way right down to their respective knucklebones. They take pains to mention it and make it so and service is stellar, easily the best I've had on my annual trip this year. Drink selection is also fantastic, which is rare, but most welcome. I had 6 of the tacos. Of those, the carnitas was the best, followed by the al pastor (not the best I've had but very interesting) and then the asada. The hot sauce was also fabulous. Wife had a carnitas platter, which she enjoyed a lot. Here's a measure of how authentic it was: no silverware. Nope. You eat that thing up with tortillas and your hands, baby and that's it. Very nice. No super convenient, but that's how they roll. I'm down. No one got any and it was straight with me. My kid had the chicken nugget and fry plate. Fries were again excellent and the nuggets...well, let's just say it was very nice of them to have it as an offering. Is this worth jumping off I-80 for? If you're a fan of this food or staying in town anyway, absolutely. If you're not so into the actual Mexican part in your Mexican food, you may reconsider, but I encourage you to jump out of your comfort zone, if that's true for you. They do this right and they do it well and it serves as a great introduction into what this culture can offer cuisine-wise. Needless to say, far and away the best we had not only this trip, but perhaps at any time of the course of any of these annual trips.

Worth a stop if you find yourself in Lexington, NE. For the money, this is a great find. The restaurant is large and clean. And yes, the bathroom is very clean. Tacos are $1.25 each. Plates are about $7.50. I think that was the most expensive item.

Mind blowingly good. If anyone runs into Rick Bayless or Anthony Bourdain tell them to come here. Totally unexpected. Not far from I80. Family owned with a really sweet and genuine husband and wife team in the kitchen.

Holy WOW get the pollo (chicken) taco- best taco I've had in a long time and I'm blown away that I found it in the middle of nowhere Nebraska. Clean, very friendly service, and AMAZING pollo tacos. If I'm ever in Nebraska again I'm definitely coming back.

Lexington, NE has a wide variety of Mexican restaurants which all claim to be "authentic", so I asked the desk clerk at my hotel for a recommendation, & fortunately for me she recommended this place. I was greeted at the door by an employee who was carrying my free chips and salsa. Then he seated me took my order for the enchilada plate. While I waited for my dinner I munched on the chips and the salsa and it was good, but certainly not spicy. When the food came, it looked so good I couldn't wait to try it. The enchilada plate had refried beans and rice and there was more than enough. It was all fresh and hot and I enjoyed every bite. Total for the platter was $8 and another $2 for a bottle of pop. I'll definitely be back to this place.

This restaurant embodies everything that is typical about great food in Nebraska. The decour is unpretentious and makes little to no sense, with a mishmash of western and wood paneling and concrete floors. The exterior gives you no indication that there is good food inside - in fact you might think it looks a bit like the front of a truck stop. It's next to a tiny Pentecostal church with a pastor who will come outside and yell at you if you park in front of his establishment. But once you get your plate of food, you will be glad that you came here. This restaurant is truly authentic Mexican for the Mexican palate. It is frequented by Mexicans and you get the impression that is their target demographic; you can get brains, tongue, or intestines if you want - or, if like me, you are less adventurous, you can order a plate of tacos or a burrito or tamales. If it's Mexican food, you can probably get it here. This is a hidden gem.
