My main complaint is Rivera's policy of only one small complimentary serving (bowl/basket) of chips and salsa per table (regardless of the number of diners at the table, whether it's one or six). Requests for additional servings of chips and salsa adds a charge of $1.99 per serving to your bill...I asked to speak with the owner (who was on site) about the policy, however, he neglected to speak to or even acknowledge me...this is extremely rude and tells me the owner is aware this policy is out of touch with other dining establisments throughout the US and Mexico...Other than this inconvience the food is somewhat better than the so-called Mexican chain restaurants, the atmosphere is close-in (strip mall rental) and extremely loud, however, there is at least one competent waitress on site.
If you have never had Alvarados... you are missing out. The tacos are the BEST!! They are also open ALL THE TIME! Get the beef tacos and some extra sauce.. the sauce is hot but not so hot it ruins the meal. Bring a big appetite!
Truly AUTHENTIC Mexican Cuisine! The food was/is wonderful! Not for everyone. Especially, those who's taste buds are adapted to the "Pseudo-Mexican" Food served in your more popular "Chain/Franchise" restaurants. It may not be located in West Omaha,
