Great food! Great service!!! We sat at the bar and had margaritas, tacos, and chips. Habanero mango salsa was fire, but delicious!!! Barbacoa tacos were tasty! Will be coming back again. If you can, make sure you're early to reserve your spots, it gets busy fast!

Ordered chips n salsa-beware salsa is Spicy!! We switched to guacamole that's Amazing, creamy & flavorful! The chicken fiesta salad is really good with black beans, corn mix, tomatoes, cheese, and tortilla strips. It is light, healthy, and refreshing! We sat belly up at the bar during a home NE Husker game. The bar is fully stocked and has lots of tequila options! Service was quick. Restaurant is clean.

Huge plus is that this place is open late with food. When you travel for work and you work evenings it's great to have a place to have late night dinner. Many places around the country are now closing by 9/10pm. Kitchen here is open weeknights til at least 11pm. Menu is limited as the focus is street tacos. They have12 or so options for that and about 7 or so app choices like dips and chip choices. Everything we've eaten has been tasty and balanced flavor wise. Quac comes with warm (when they aren't busy) chips that I assume are made on site or heated for better enjoyment. Just enough salt to add flavor. There is a vast tequila menu for those folks that know the difference between a mass market store brand and more limited runs. The list includes pours that reach triple digits and are known to be high quality tequilas. Their prices for things (ranging from about $8-$250) are competitive with other high end tequila bars. Their buyer has done a good job curating the list. When it's calm the place runs well and the service is great. When it's at least half full or more, expect to wait for your food and drinks. Though the wait staff is very nice and doing the best they can with the volume. Place has sports on all the TVs. Bar seating, a few high top longer tables, and a handful of booths. It also has outside seating when the weather allows it. Oh, and they are on Toast. So if you come in often use the same credit card to pay and earn points towards discounts on your bill.
