Epoca Cantina

Very busy night due to Creighton game tonight. Service was not very good (seems like they were not ready for the Creighton fans to want to eat before the game). At one point I had to go to the bar to order my drinks. I waited about 20 minutes for a server before going up there. Our food was excellent though. I had blackened fish tacos which were wonderful. Margaritas were probably some of the best I have ever had since they tasted homemade. Price a little high for Mexican food but assumed it would be due to the location and I am sure lease payment is outrageous. Would definitely eat here again but not before a Creighton game.

We visited this establishment on recommendation from many people that my wife knows, but all things considered will likely not be going back.

Nothing bad really, but nothing special either. The inside was too industrial for my wife, though I found it nice. Our server was doing double duty as a bartender (it was late afternoon when there) and we had to wait a little too long for our drinks (as he served four others at the bar that came in after us).

The trio appetizer was very good as were the chips, but the much heralded street tacos were not worth driving from Elkhorn.

Authentic food. Great margaritas even if you don't typically like tequila like me. I tried 2, the mint Jamaica and the black agave. I would order them again. Love that a person can sit outside and order from the window. Great atmosphere inside and out and the staff is very friendly.

Disappointing. Nice looking place but the food wasn't for me. The $11 house salad is all iceberg lettuce and cucumbers with a teeny bit of cheese and 3 skinny slices of avocado. The barbacoa taco didn't have much flavor and the carnitas taco was so salty I could barely stand it. Since it's in the Capitol District I'm guessing their goal is to be more of an alcohol than a food establishment.
