Mena's Kitchen — Restaurant in Grand Island

I’ve had tacos from here three times now. Always de lengua y de tripa. They definitely are a contender for best tacos I’ve ever had!!! I grew up in Chicago and am a Mexican-American, so I’ve tasted a lot of different tacos from different places and these might be my favorite. The tripa and lengua both have the best texture and are perfectly seasoned. The tripa has the perfect amount of crispiness to it too.

But the guy who works there still gave me the tacos and gave me back the money I paid for the online order fee. In fact, when I got home, it turns out he gave me five extra tacos!! I’m not sure if it was an accident or a nice gesture, but pretty happy bout...

The truth is, you are lucky and fortunate enough to have such good business. I'm done with this place!! I called this evening to place an order and the immature little girl answered the phone screaming again. What planet are you from? te...

Their online menu claims anything you order will come with rice and beans. Online ordering and phone number didn't work to order takeout but "What a great deal" we thought and trekked over to order in person. After an exceptionally LONG wait for our food, we discovered none of our various entrees had rice and beans and got a dismissive shrug from the cashier when we went back to ask about this. :/ Also, don't go for the carne asada option on anything unless you enjoy overcooked gristle getting stuck...
