Omaha Driver Entertainment Guide

Located at 2505 S. 90th Street, just North of 90th and Center, is Senor Matias Mexican Restaurant. Senor Matias has been at this location for over 30 years. The restaurant serves “Tex Mex” like food; tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and of course terrific margaritas. My wife enjoys Senor Matias’ super tostadas. The super tostada choices include beef, bean or chicken. It is a plate-full piled high with lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, olives and sour cream. I recommend the chicken enchiladas. Senior Matias is also well known for their terrific fried soft shell tacos. They serve an enormous ”super taco” that is the size of a football!  You’ll never walk out of Senor Matias hungry. The portions are generous and the service is friendly and prompt.  Open daily till midnight (bar until 1:00 a.m.). Sunday hours 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Give it a try and Happy Motoring!

Located at 817 N. 40th Street, just north of St. Cecilia’s Cathedral, is Lisa’s Radial Cafe.  A family owned business, the Radial Cafe, touts itself as “Omaha’s Oldest Cafe.” My friends and I visited for breakfast. We were initially ushered to a small waiting room, but were seated within 5 minutes. The inside of the diner is small and cozy, with an interesting assortment of Omaha photographs and artwork adorning the walls. The diner was packed, but the customers were diverse and friendly, making the experience enjoyable.  I had ”The Works” breakfast that included scrambled eggs, hash browns, toast and bacon. The portion sizes were large and tasty. I had a minor spill, but the wait staff was on-the-spot to clean things up. The Radial Cafe is on the “Omaha’s Best” list, and it easy to understand why. It is an Omaha “must try”. Happy Motoring!
