Review: At Hacienda Real, home cooked Mexican and Tex-Mex hits the spot

By Sarah Baker Hansen

Sometimes when I’m deciding whether or not to review a place, I turn to Google, simply to learn a little bit more. When I googled “Hacienda Real,” the Lincoln-based, locally owned chain of Mexican restaurants that opened its third location in Omaha in August, this line popped up inside the box devoted to recent Google reviews: “Their salsa and even their guacamole was a bit too spicy for this white girl.”

Say no more.

It turns out that local guida Alayna on Google is right: the house-made red salsa at Hacienda Real does have a very pleasant kick, thanks to jalapeno along with plenty of fresh herbs. So does the fresh, chunky guacamole. But I’m counting that as a win instead of a drawback.

In fact, almost all food we tried during two recent visits to the bustling spot was colorful, flavorful and, in some cases, served so searingly hot you had to wait a beat before taking a bite.

Every diner begins their experience with a basket of warm tortilla chips (yes, refills are free) along with a complimentary side of that dark red, thin salsa and a warmed, creamy refried bean dip, which I liked quite a bit, too. Try a dip of both on the same chip.

It’s hard to know where to begin on such an enormous menu. The trio platter seemed a smart choice as it allowed us to try the chile Colorado, chile verde and chile relleno (yes, the portions are also enormous.) We also went for the tacos al carbon, steak tacos dipped in a spicy tomato sauce. I read later that they’re a popular Tex-Mex dish in Houston, in particular.

I liked the tacos a lot. Soft corn tortillas came stuffed with grilled tomatoes, onions and well-seasoned hunks of skirt steak. Saucy and soft, the tacos come topped with cool queso fresco and plenty of chopped fresh cilantro. Generous servings of seasoned Mexican rice and refried beans, the standard sides that come with most dishes, are served here, too.

The trio platter provides a fun exercise in contrast: spicy pork green chili is excellent, this version made with a tomatillo-based green sauce that has a pleasant kick and some smoke from the roasted chile. But the contrasting chile Colorado is also worth trying, with its super tender pieces of beef sirloin that are slow-simmered in a sauce made with dried red chile. Nestled between the two is a chile relleno made with a soft poblano pepper encased in a flavorful batter and tucked beneath a thick layer of red sauce and sour cream. It’s an incredible amount of food; all of it is good.

The restaurant, formerly an Old Chicago off the corner of 78th and Cass Streets, has been remodeled inside, with various types and heights of seating throughout, including booths and bar tables; new modern light fixtures (which I thought could have been dimmed a notch); and a color palette of dark grays and warm oranges. Service is exceptionally friendly. On our second visit, our server told us it was her first night on the job, and even with a few stumbles, which she apologized for though she did not need to, she was incredibly kind and efficient.

The list of margarita selections at Hacienda Real is long and varied, and we tried a few, though my easy favorite is their jalapeno margarita. Instead of being outright spicy, the drink has a pleasant vegetal note from the raw peppers floating in the mix. Matthew tried the Jalisco Patron margarita and added one of the eleven fruit flavors a diner can add into the drink; the mango he decided on was another good choice.

The one dish we tried that didn’t sail through to the finish was the queso fundido, essentially a plate of molten Monterey jack cheese, studded with chorizo, tomatoes and sliced scallion. While the first dip of a chip into the cheese is great, hot and gooey, our plate quickly solidified into a solid mass as it cooled. It would be better if it had a texture closer to fondue or creamier queso, or if it had been served, like some of the other dishes, in a hot receptacle to keep the cheese soft.

Speaking of hot receptacles, the dishes we had another evening both came served, literally, sizzling hot.

The mixed fajita platter is heavy on sauteed peppers and onions but also includes plenty of seasoned chicken, beef and, in our case, shrimp, which we had instead of pork for an additional dollar. If you are a fan of fajitas, this is a great opportunity to stack the small, piping hot tortillas with plenty of meat and vegetables and all the toppings, which across the board at Hacienda Real are fresh and inviting.

I’d spotted the moleajete de mariscos on our first visit to Hacienda Real and, in an adventurous mood, decided to order it. At $24.99, it’s one of the most expensive dishes on the menu, and here’s why: it’s a sizzling pile of shrimp, octopus, crab legs, tilapia and clams along with a variety of vegetables all served in an oversized Mexican mortar made of lava stone.

I had to wait a solid minute before digging into the bubbling hot dish, but once I did I found seafood nicely seasoned and well cooked. One note of caution if you do order this dish: take the seafood out of the moleajete once you start eating, otherwise, it gets overcooked as you get deeper into the bowl. I’d also recommend Hacienda Real add a seafood cracker to the lineup of utensils they provide, as crab legs are a chore to eat without one.

I like Hacienda Real. It’s a place I think could fill the hole left by the recent closing of Rivera’s, another of my Omaha favorite Mexican spots.

There’s plenty of home-cooked, warming food here, plus great margaritas and a few much appreciated adventurous moments, for those who care to take a closer look.

How Does the Mutual of Omaha Tower Stack Up to Other Skyscrapers?

The highly anticipated final plans have been completed, and we now know details about Omaha’s next skyscraper.

Mutual of Omaha’s new corporate headquarters will become Omaha’s tallest building, rising 677 feet to enhance the city’s skyline and add a dynamic element to the urban core.

Construction will begin in January, with completion slated for 2026. It will be located immediately west of the recently reopened Gene Leahy Mall on the site of the former W. Dale Clark Library.

The building will feature 44 floors and approximately 800,000 sq. ft. of office, meeting, collaboration and amenity space. It will include parking for 2,200 vehicles in a garage used by Mutual employees during business hours and the community during evenings and weekends.

At 677 feet, the Mutual of Omaha tower will be 43 feet taller than Omaha’s First National Tower, which is currently the tallest building in a multi-state region including Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Wyoming and the Dakotas.

Here’s how the Mutual tower will stack up against the current list of Nebraska’s tallest buildings:

Mutual of Omaha Tower = 677 feet
First National Tower (Omaha) = 634 feet

State Capitol Building (Lincoln) = 400 feet
Elmwood Tower (Omaha) = 320 feet

First National Center (Omaha) = 295 feet

Here’s how the Mutual Tower will compare to the tallest buildings in other cities in our region:

Mutual of Omaha Tower = 677 feet
Gateway Arch (St. Louis) = 630 feet
801 Grand (Des Moines) = 630 feet
One Kansas City Place (Kansas City) 623 feet

Here’s a list of some other major U.S. cities that have tallest buildings shorter than Mutual of Omaha’s future headquarters (this list does not include buildings that are proposed or under construction):

Mutual Tower = 677 feet
Cincinnati, OH = 665 feet

Leadership & Management

“Great moments are born from great opportunities,” said the late Herb Brooks, one of the world’s most famous hockey coaches. One of the most important things a leader must do is find opportunity.

But the best opportunities are often hidden, that is why we must deliberately search for it. Here’s how:

Open your eyes and ears – we can no longer afford to be indifferent, or even worse, oblivious to the world around us. Be on the lookout for ideas that could lead to new opportunities. Even more important than eyes and ears, keep your mind open too. Many of us miss opportunities, because they don’t fit into our pre-existing paradigms.

Remember that all people count – sometimes we get so obsessed with the “right” people, we miss out on valuable opportunities from people, who on the surface, can do seemingly nothing for us.

Fight through the fear – one of the biggest reasons we miss out on extraordinary opportunities is because we are too afraid to leap.

Take risks – As the old saying goes, “nothing risked, nothing gained.” Unless you take a chance and do something new, you’ll keep running into the same old opportunities.

Work really hard – “Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work,” said the great inventor Thomas Edison.

Set meaningful goals – make those goals specific too. The more you clarify what you really want, the quicker you will recognize it when it shows up.

Find quiet time – many people have found great opportunities, because they prayed or mediated about them. Such activity creates focus in your mind, and a focused mind is a powerful mind.

Believe – visualize success and tell yourself that good things will come. A positive mind is more receptive to hidden opportunity.

Prepare – as the old Boy Scout motto says, “be prepared.” You never know when the perfect opportunity will open up. If you’re not prepared, you might not act on it quickly enough.

Sales

Sales Statistic – 44 percent of sales reps give up after one follow-up call.

What’s the one thing that most sales reps could do to be more successful? Whether it’s a good rep who wants to become great or a poor rep struggling just to make it, the answer is almost always “prospecting.” The ability to manufacture a new client out of thin air is the single most important skill in sales. It’s also the skill that’s most likely to be lacking.

Wisdom

“Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality.” – Warren G. Bennis

“Become the person who would attract the results you seek.” – Jim Cathcart

Views and opinions expressed herein are solely those of the author.

For the past six months, Mr. Market has been in his biggest hissy fit since the one in 2007-2008. Each week I talk to dozens of individual investors who are trying to make sense of what’s going on and trying to develop a strategy for dealing with it. For the majority of these folk the only source of market information they have is the nightly news or the smart-ass stock jockey at the watercooler.

I continually make references to “Cramer,” and my best guess is that many of my brilliant insights are wasted, because many of my readers are unaware of Mr. Cramer.

Jim Cramer is CNBC’s Vito Corleone. Wikipedia describes him as an American television personality. No mention of any financial expertise. He is the host of “Mad Money” and an anchor on “Squawk on the Street.”

The names of his shows are emblematic of his modus operandi. The title “Mad Money” is self-explanatory. He takes random calls with questions about individual stocks. He stands in front of a dozen of knobs that when struck emit sounds ranging from a whoopie cushion to a police siren. The sound of the horn indicates how he feels about the stock in question.

Are you old enough to remember Clarabelle the Clown on the Howdy Doody show??? Same level of sophistication. Only brokers from the glory days of the Wall Street will recognize the term squawk box. Back in the day, brokerage firms had a loud speaker, and before the market opening, some self-appointed stock guru would tout a stock from the firm’s bloated inventory.

Before coming to CNBC, Cramer was a hedge fund manager and senior partner of Cramer Berkowitz. In a December 2006 interview, Cramer described activities used by hedge fund managers to manipulate stock prices—some of debatable legality and others illegal. He described how he could push stocks higher or lower with as little as $5 million in capital when he was running his hedge fund.

Cramer said, “A lot of times when I had sold short at my hedge fund, I would create a level of activity that could drive the futures.” He encouraged hedge funds to engage in this type of activity because it is “a very quick way to make money.”

The Gnomes and I recommend that on an irregular basis you visit CNBC and Yahoo Finance or any other financial media out let of our choice. Your takeaway should be that there are as many predictions as there are pundits. They can’t all be right, but they can all be wrong. In the end, Mr. Market will do what he always does: Swing back and forth between manic depressive and euphoric. He will tell you what mood he is in. So as always, “Forget the needle, buy the haystack.”
