" Birrieria El Chalan absolutely exceeded my expectations! The birria de res was rich and tender, and the tortillas were freshly made, enhancing the experience. The waitstaff was attentive but not overly intrusive, which I appreciated. I tried the menudo too, and it was one of the best I've ever tasted, with deep, complex flavors. The only downside was the need for cash, but that won't stop me from coming back regularly to enjoy their authentic offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" This hidden gem in Omaha serves the best birria! I came here after hearing great things and it did not disappoint. The flavors are on point, and the portions are very generous considering the price. However, be prepared to bring cash since they don’t accept cards. I was a bit disappointed with the seating area though—it could use a little sprucing up. Overall, a fantastic place for authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last week, I enjoyed a fabulous lunch at Birrieria El Chalan. The place may be modest in size, but the flavors are extraordinary! The birria tacos were amazing, especially with the homemade salsa on the side. I felt very welcomed by the staff, who were attentive throughout my visit. While it’s cash only, their prices are very reasonable for the quality! I highly suggest making a trip if you’re in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Birrieria El Chalan was certainly memorable! I had the carne asada burrito along with a side of their homemade salsas. Everything was bursting with flavor! It’s clear they use quality ingredients which really showcases the authenticity of the dishes. Plus, the service was swift even on a busy day. The main drawback—only accepting cash—might deter some, but it won’t keep me from coming back. I’m already looking forward to my next meal here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Birrieria El Chalan is a lovely little restaurant that offers authentic Mexican food! I had the goat birria, and it was absolutely amazing. The sides of fresh cilantro and onions complemented the tacos perfectly. The service was quite good as well, although it does take a little longer during busy hours. Cash only payment is the only small downside. Overall, I can't wait to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally visited Birrieria El Chalan after hearing friends rave about it! The atmosphere was casual and cozy, and the staff welcomed me warmly. The birria tacos were just as good as promised—so flavorful and perfectly spiced! I also indulged in their homemade salsas. My only complaint is that they don’t accept cards, but I can look past that for food this amazing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Birrieria El Chalan and was blown away by the authenticity of the food! The birria tacos were incredibly flavorful and the homemade tortillas simply delicious. The staff was friendly, which made the experience even better. I can't wait to go back and try the goat birria they serve on weekends! Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving real Mexican food.
