This spot is amazing from food to cocktails!! Best homemade spicy salsa I've ever had... Definitely a must try

The chips and salsa were decent. The patio style dining area is beautiful. The food however for me was inedible. I ordered a chimichanga and as soon as I opened it up it was a water fall of hot grease. I know ground beef can be greasy but this was way extra. I tried one bite and spit it back out. Tasted like old oil. Husband ate the rice and beans but a two bites into his The Juan burrito he also decided it was way to greasy. The waiter was pleasant , he got the manager when I told him it was not edible. She offered to have them make a new one. I said no thank you. She didn't charge us for the food because we didn't eat. Did offer to pay for hubbys but she declined. Great customer service. Bad food. Wished I had my phone along to snap a photo.

My husband and I had dinner here and it was fabulous!! I had the special grilled salmon (WOW, loved it ) and my husband had blackened chicken ? tacos. We're starting and very happy ?

The food and drinks are an 8/10 the service is about a 2/10 the waitress was very attentive to other tables then snapped at us saying it was just her when there were at least 2 other people working. The male server that took over was attentive and very polite! Would've been nice if he took over sooner by the time we got our sauces we asked for multiple times our food was cold. When we asked for extra napkins we were given two by the waitress as well "gee thanks". Hoping for better next visit.

Giving four stars for the atmosphere, because it is amazing! Not a bad seat in the place. You can sit inside or in a patio area within the “passageway” for people watching fun times! The food was okay. I wouldn’t say authentic, but decent. We had the Cheese Crisp which was basically melted cheese on a flour tortilla. I tried the deep fried puffy taco and that was a different experience, but pretty tasty. I did LOVE the hot sauce! Margaritas were average, very sweet tasting. I’d recommend a visit to this place for the ambiance alone, a nice date spot for sure! They are very friendly as well!

Delicious food! While not the “fault” of the restaurant, be aware that this location can be extremely loud. My husband and I stopped in for lunch, and while the restaurant wasn’t full, a table of women who appeared to have been overserved and several margaritas deep were pretty noisy, and with the small location and all the brick, the noise was hard to handle.While we couldn’t make conversation over the loudness, once the food came all was forgotten - the fajitas were delicious; and I highly recommend the salsa!

We walked in on a busy Friday, right in the nick of time as it filled up in a matter of minutes.I ordered one of the top chicken fajitas I've have ever ordered from a restaurant. I was perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection with a good balance of meat to veggies.The staff were wonderful. Loved this place and will come back next time we are in Omaha.

Very bland food. The presentation looked nice but we all left disappointed. The queso and salsa were average. I would not consider this authentic. Sadly we wouldn't return.

Trinis is pretty good!I like that they are very minimal on their menu, pricing, decent service. The atmosphere down there is amazing. The wait staff is cool. Drink types are minimal. They have had generally the same everything over the 50 years they’ve been open. That speaks volumes as are country has been through a lot over 50 years. Keep up the good work Trini’s. We will be back!I would love to know more info on the 3 big paintings on the wall.I also would like to see the restaurant itself more clean (fixtures, paintings, lights not crooked and all working over the paintings). Etc! The dining area and above the dining areas where people eat need to be cleaned.Dining presentation needs to be a bit better. Plate presentation needs to be a bit better.Staff was great!

Loved Trinis for years!!! Despite being very busy, our waiter Michael was fantastic! Very welcoming and attentive. Only critique i would have is they charge for the salsa and chips. Enchiladas/Rice&Beans flavor was great!
