This modern bistro in the Old Market puts its own spin on tacos, and it’s a winner.

This one breaks the rules a little: It’s 2.9 miles from the stadium (a 10-minute drive or a long-ish walk). But its customized version of the birria taco is a must-try.
Omaha food blogger Dan Hoppen says the taco, called the fuego, comes on a crispy grilled handmade corn tortilla, the stew meat is rich and the melty cheese “oozes out the sides.”
Sounds like it’s worth the trip.
It’s only available on weekdays.
