Romeo's

So I've never reviewed Romeo's. Well it is an Omaha time tested staple. A flavor so many of us grew up with. I lived near the old Original one on 90th and blondo that opened in 1976. Is it super authentic Mexican no it is not. It's kinda old school gringo with a little flare. But it is GOOD. The sanchos are amazing, the pizza is always good. Every kid loves the chips and cheese. I personally love the meat and jalapeño quesadillas. Which is nacho-typical quesadilla. Their homemade taco sauce on the tables is Delicious.. perfect for families

Food is usually good but the pork tacos were very dry and flavorless. The prices are a bit high but you get a lot of food. I think the man at the cash register is not friendly. I always smile but he always seems to be in a bad mood. Front people should be friendlier I think. I've been going to Romeo's for over thirty years and the wait staff is always very nice and friendly. No ambience just good food most of the time!

Dog food, at best. I ordered their claim to fame item and it was a twilight zone like experience. The brown gravy was insulting, the fried taco had lettuce that tasted like nitrogen fertilizer. The tiny carafe of bean dip was overwhelming with a dried chili flavor that was not pleasant, the same sized cheese sauce was gelatinous and inedible. Every single item was based on boiled low-quality ground beef which lacked seasoning, disgusting. I have no idea how anyone can eat this slop at this price point. Every item ordered was a disaster. Even the margaritas were meticulously watered down with a 2:1 ice ratio. Tap beer was warm despite a frosty mug. Absolutely a pathetic experience in every way. Waitress was a defensive old hag. Completely overpriced. Shut it down

I have a lot of nostalgia for Romeos. Where else can you get nachos and pizza? After a long day out we decided to stop in for a quick meal. Of course, we started off with chips and cheese. The cheese sauce here is super addictive and honestly the reason I stop in a few times a year. It was just as I remember and an excellent start. I wasn't feeling Tex-Mex so I got pizza. While it's not the best pizza in town, it's still respectable The cheese is quality and the pepperoni is served crispy. My fiancé got the fajita taco salad. The steak was in large chunks and hard to eat in the salad. She had to take it out and cut it on the plate. It was more hassle than it was worth. Next time she will get ground beef instead. Overall, while the atmosphere is a bit dated, the food is decent to good and your bill is never high.

For some reason enthuse establishments love seating the folks eating alone in the back corner next to the restroom and this was no acceptation. After looking over the menu I choose the chili rellenos with green chili . I asked for a side of corn tortillas and the gentleman said they don't have corn tortillas! What kind of Mexican restaurant is this??? Already lead to a disappointing start of my lunch. No free chips with your food which is also a let down. The chili relleno itself was ok but it had a cheddar cheese sauce in it instead. Definitely not real Mexican food . Sorry what's wrong I don't know it's not what is it normally like well not cheddar cheese it's Mexican cheese or chili in it well the white queso and a key so I can oh definitely not traditional . Will never be back again

This my favorite Romeos as it's the most updated and largest layout. The service is perfect for quick lunches. I've met many a friend, significant other and dine in with co workers over the lunch hour. The food is always the same, best soft shell taco in town and the cheese is never short of liquid gold. I also really really love their pizza. I encourage at least of one my children to order it when coming in with them so I can have their left overs. Otherwise my husband and I have carried out the meat lovers pizza too. Tacos and tasty pizza? It really is nacho-typical restaurant.

Came in at lunch time. Chips and cheese dip is really good. Could have made the appetizer my meals. Service was friendly and fast. The tables felt a little too close to one another. My taco salad was tasty. All in all a good experience. Will come back for sure

I hadn't been to a Romeo's in probably 20+ years, but I ended up here and have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. For one, my expectations were admittedly pretty low. I still remember 12-year-old me not being impressed by Romeo's. But when you take it for what it is--a family-friendly spot for greasy food--I can see the appeal.I ordered #3 lunch combo with one beef, one carnitas, and one chicken taco. The fried flour shells were pretty excellent. The meat had minimal seasoning and the salsa had very little spice. So everything was, you know, a bit bland, but that's what I was planning on. Honestly, the tacos were pretty good. Also tried the chips and cheese dip. They tasted exactly how they sound.Now I wouldn't go out of my way to return to Romeo's, whether this location or another. But if I had an invite to dine with some friends here, I'd be on board.

I rarely stop in to Romeo's anymore as it seems the quality just isn't what it used to be. I realize this is just a step above fast food, but things just aren't what they use to be.Tacos and chips are okay but what I truly loved years ago was their cheese and onion enchilada. In years past they were gooey and creamy with cheese inside and plenty of onions. Love the salsa they make and i put it on top of the enchilada. Over the past 2 years I've been in twice and the cheese and onion enchilada seems to be made with cheaper cheeese. It's no longer gooey and creamy, but chunky and super chewy. This last order was to go so I even microwaved it to where it was bubbling, but still was hard to cut into it and the cheese just too chewy. I hope I look at this review before I get a hankering to stop into Romeo's again.

Another visit late on a Tuesday night. Not swamped but plenty of customers. We got a quick and friendly greeting. We were seated quickly, and our server was right there. We were asked if we wanted any appetizers, which we declined, but then we placed our order right away. The food came fast. Our orders were correct, and the food tasted great. My wife had the Nacho Typical Nachos, and I had a large pepperoni pizza. This was another great visit, and we will be back.
