Is the dining room open yet?
Stopped in while driving across the country. The food was really good! We got beef nachos off the kids menu for the kids and at first I was unhappy to see ground beef but it was seasoned very well! I had the fajita burrito and it was amazing. I have eaten at a lot of similar style Mexican restaurants but the food here was by far the best. This will be a planned stop in the future! Lunch menu has great prices!
MoreDelicious! Fast service. Polite staff. Highly recommend stopping in if you're passing by, right off the highway!
MoreCame in while doing the travel thing. The food was tasty, hot and served quickly. Service was good. It is not a fancy place, but I would rather have a good meal than fancy furnishings and so-so food.
MoreLove their Fajitas ,everyone else seemed please with what they ordered
Good food, decorating makes the atmosphere. Friendly service
The food was great!!! And the service was spot on. I will definitely eat here again!
MoreMy wife and I were in Nebraska City for our honeymoon and decided to stop by El Portal for some food, and we very much enjoyed our experience. My wife is a vegetarian and they had plenty of items for her to choose from and I got a seafood quesadilla. The prices were really good! You can easily find a meal for less than $10. The salsa is amazing and I requested to purchase some but our server (I cannot remember his name) gave us a nice to-go container for the salsa FOR FREE! Even after I insisted I’d pay for it. Our server was incredibly professional, well groomed and even cracked a few unexpected and well timed jokes to make the experience even better. The hospitality was incredible and everyone seemed to be happy to work there.If anyone is in Nebraska city and is looking for a perfectly affordable and delicious culinary experience, I highly recommend El Portal. We will definitely return.
MoreExcellent service and excellent food at a reasonable price
The El Portal margarita was very good. The mango margarita was very good. Chips and salsa just ok, tacos were cold and soggy on one side, the meat was bland. But the service was excellent.
MoreMy family and I enjoy eating at El Portal. The food is delicious and service is really quick! Great family friendly restaurant!
MoreI thought the portions were very small , food was not hot, and it wasn't very good. I ordered a chimichanga witch I always thought was deep fried but the item I received was a dinky little burrito type thing. I would not recommend this place what so ever.
MoreCute decorations. Food was bland. Small side portions of rice and beans. Don't order a beef burrito from here. It's weird and tastes like fajitas.. definitely not what I expected. You can't lift it to eat, it's some odd glop of beef inside covered by a tortilla. The food is not authentic. Salsa is watered down and not spicy. Im sure a lot of it came out of a can. Really surprised at the high rating.
MoreGood quality as with all their other stores. Good price lunch menu. Food served quickly and hot and delicious. I make this one of my primary lunch stops when I'm in town.
MoreGood food, fun environment, friendly folks.
Good place nice service needs to be more authentic
Great food! Service was quick!
Great service excellent food. Best resteraunt in Neb City!
Typical Mexican fare. Nothing stood.out other than the less-than-stellar service. Our waiter didn't bring out chips/salsa until after we ordered. He also forgot to bring out the spicy salsa I requested, and he forgot my side of jalapenos.
MoreGreat food and service nice place to sit down and eat plus great atmosphere!! Should check it out for yourself!
MoreVery good food. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Good experience for the whole family.
MoreExcellent food and drinks with fair prices!
The food was served really fast and was delicious. Service was also very friendly and accommodating.
MorePretty good food... they seemed a little understaffed and there was missing sides a condiments on our order. But over all it was good... I'd go again!
MoreVery good food, fast service, great prices. Waiter was great. Real Mexican food prepared by Hispanics.
MoreNot so sure and the El Portal. Being from El Paso Texas this place doesn't really measure up to the standard that I'm used to. Apparently they're toning down the spice and hot stuff for the locals because in my book the food was a little bland. I'll give them another try and see if they make something that will register on the spicy scale.
MoreHad an amazing dinner with great service. Authentic Mexican food served just the way we like it. Highly recommend this place to anybody who enjoys a great Mexican experience.
MoreYou can tell that they are struggling to get it right after reopening from the pandemic. 2 out 6 orders were wrong but the food is still very good!
MoreHappened to be in Nebraska City around lunch and looked at the reviews for the local restaurants and seen this was highly rated. The review were not wrong. Great food and great service. We would definitely eat there again
MoreStopped in for lunch and the food was great. Locally owned and great service. Get the Churro with Ice Cream for dessert!
MoreGood food and good service. Fun environment.
Great food and service.
Great place to eat. Good food and good service
Good food, clean, friendly people
Great food and margaritas.friendly staff.
We went for dinner and ordered the Ceviche, a medium Guacamole and a single Crab Enchilada, the food was excellent, the service was also excellent, quick and friendly, we had no waiting for a table at 6pm. on a Tuesday.We started out with the housemade chips and salsa, which was unexpectedly tasty and different from most Mexican restaurants! We even ordered Chardonnay (I know, strange while eating Mexican food!) but, it was good and a very generous pour for only $3.50! Overall, the prices are very reasonable and we will definitely return.I don't think reservations are necessary and this would be a great place for family and groups.
MoreBeen eating here for years. Food quality is outstanding. Plenty of parking, quick service.Prices are great. Tremendous value.
MoreI'm not one to leave a bad review but everytime I order/eat at this restaurant.. I request to have no dairy on the vegetarian items. Every single time.... Cheese and sour cream. I understand a mess up here and there...but I won't be coming back. This has now happened 4 times. Very unfortunate.
MoreO. K. Mexican Food. It takes FOREVER to get seated on a Friday evening. This restaurant is decent and have vegetarian options. However, never order fries to go!!! Those things were soggy and nasty! Had to throw them in the trash. Friendly amigos.
MoreMy partner and I regularly make the trip from Omaha to Nebraska City just to visit El Portal. It is definitely Mexican/American overall, as some reviewers have pointed out, but there are plenty of authentic dishes on the menu. The pork chili verde is delicious, the service is impeccable, and the atmosphere is welcoming. ***For folks with celiac: My partner has Celiac. The folks at El Portal are always careful to prevent cross contamination. Since they use a shared fryer, they let us bring our own tortilla chips. It's totally worth the trip from Omaha!
MoreGood eats and easy to get in and out the lot! Right by the N 75 turn to Omaha, Lincoln.
MoreA good choice for Mexican food. More traditional style than tex-mex. Salsa is fresh and the chips are just right.
MoreThis place is ok not the worst food I have had but far from the best. The best thing is their cheese sauce which is a tad runny in my opinion. My partner had the burrito bandera and I had the carne asada. His tortilla was a bit soggy and the meat didn't have a ton of flavor. My meal was ok but it was also missing some flavor. The salsa was like watered down tomatoes with cilantro thrown in. Just overall kind of disappointing.
MoreGreat chips and salsa. Menu items great as well!
Good food. Friendly people.
Great food, portion size, and service.
OK if you're really hungry but the food to include the salsa was pretty bland. Rice seemed flavored with ketchup, beans runny almost watery, cheese dip was lukewarm, chips greasy. The enchiladas were flavorful but my fiance got the burrito and it was bland. Long island ice tea tasted like they used a bottled mixer with minimal spirits added. Staff friendly but I will stick with La Mesa on Ft Crook.
MoreLove their food! The employees are very friendly and helpful.
Wonderful as always, we love stopping in. You receive quick service but not fast food. When you arrive, warm chips along with salsa is serviced. Order the queso dip to go with the chips is great. Now don't fill up on this, because your meal will be coming soon. I always order the tostada from the a-la-cart menu. My husband get a meal, we share the rice and beans. You won't go home hungry, in fact a to-go box may be needed. Stop here to get your Mexican fix, you won't be disappointed.
MoreThe shrimp cocktail was excellent will stop again
Good food, welcoming service!
