Los Tres Hermanos — Restaurant in Elkhorn

Los Tres Hermanos: where the chips are bottomless, the cheese is melty, and the vibe is somewhere between “authentic Mexican joint” and “Midwestern fever dream featuring a mariachi soundtrack and unlimited Horcata.”

Let’s start with the good: The food? Solid. Not “call your abuela and cancel dinner” good, but solid. The enchiladas were tasty, the tacos were flavorful, and the rice didn’t taste like it came from a box labeled “bland side dish #4,” which is a win in my book. Plus, everything came out hot, fresh, and faster than a Midwest thunderstorm.

The service was friendly, though a little… scattered. Think: your charming but slightly distracted cousin who promises to bring you extra salsa and then disappears into the ether. But hey, they meant well, and they smiled a lot—so who can stay mad?

The atmosphere? It’s giving “small town fiesta meets Chili’s second cousin.” Bright colors, wall décor that’s trying really hard, and a soundtrack that makes you want to sip a margarita even if it’s noon on a Tuesday (no judgment).

All in all, Los Tres Hermanos is a perfectly good place to scratch that Mexican food itch when you’re in Elkhorn. Just don’t expect to be spiritually transformed by the guac. It’s good. Not great. But definitely worth coming back for when you need tacos and a little personality with your beans and rice.

Quiet Fajitas? This was a recommended spot to visit and it seemed to have solid reviews so we tried it. From the moment we sat down things felt very rushed. We hadn't even had a chance to look at the menu before the server was there asking for drink orders. We stumbled through the menu to try to decipher what they even had. Once drinks were ordered we pretty much had our decided entrees down to a few and finally settled on Fajitas Jalisco for 2. Our server brought our drinks promptly and got our food order in. Our food came out in record time and I had a hint of concern when the fajitas came out and they were markedly silent, like nothing, not even a hint of a sizzle. It made me go hmmm, and as we started dishing it onto plates and taking our first bites, we realized this had to have been reheated. The meat was dry and there were very few onions in it. I don't think I've ever been served such a disappointing dish at a Mexican restaurant. The rest of our food was pretty standard and I had a pretty good margarita, but I just can't get over the rush the server was in and the quiet, stale fajitas, so we probably won't...

Stopped in on Tuesday evening for dinner they were pretty busy. We were sat right away and chips and salsa were bright immediately, followed by our drinks. Salsa is amazing. They have a huge menu so it took a bit to decide what we were having. We started with the cheese dip, it was delicious. I had the Fajitas Jalisco they had steak, shrimp and chicken, lots of veggies. They did not come out sizzling hot, but they were still warm. They came with rice and beans, both were excellent. My friend had the Elian Special with green sauce. It came out on 3 plates! It comes with one flauta, one enchilada, one burrito, one tamale, one taco & one Chile relleno. The tamale was good, the flauta and burrito were pretty boring, but good. The taco was delicious and the Chile relleno was absolutely amazing! The restaurant was clean, cute and much bigger inside than you think. Our server did not have much of a personality, but he was mostly efficient! We look forward to trying...
