Bright and airy decor in this small space is very inviting. Menus are available, but you can also order using a chalkboard menu or look at specials on a tv. Order at the counter, but they bring out your food. I ordered the loaded mac and cheese which I had before. Bookguy ordered birria ramen and Rangoon fries. The fries were unique, with wonton strips, sweet and sour sauce, some kind of white sauce and green onions. Bookguy loved them, and I liked them too. My mac and cheese was as I remembered with pasta , chicken, bacon and a three cheese sauce-- very flavorful and a generous portion. Bookguy found his burria to be a tad bit spicier than he liked, even after taking out the slices of hot pepper. He liked it overall, but didn't finish the broth due to the spice. I had water, but the cup itself smelled funky to me, like maybe it had been washed in water that had grease in it. Next time I'll try a margarita.

Just went here Sunday for brunch for the first time and I'd say I may pass on the brunch next time and order from the original menu even if it is brunch time. The waffles and huevos rancheros were good, just not mind blowing. Kids loved the French fries of course; I felt they were just good. However, my husband said the surf and turf burrito is the best burrito he's ever had. I actually got the chorizo on the side for my huevos R, but he ate that and said that was pretty good too! we ordered an extra side of bacon and rice, and those were also standard. The inside was pretty chilly in mid-November at the front of the restaurant, but my stubborn family didn't want to move to the back where it was much warmer. Its an interesting set up, like you order from the front counter and then they bring it out to you. Kind of like good lookin if you ever had eaten there. Overall the staff was very friendly and nice. I'd love to come back to try more of the non-brunch items and perhaps update my review!

There's a lot going on at The Corner Kitchen. It starts with a strong Mexican influence. Then you add in some Asian styles, a little surf and turf and even a few All-American recipes. Everything on the menu looked good - burgers and other handhelds, burritos, noodles and snacks. I ended up looking past all of it because I wanted tacos. I went with the Korean Pork Taco, the Chicken Sriracha Taco and the Surf and Turf. They were fantastic - especially the Surf and Turf. Filling, too. They were a little larger than your normal street taco and were filled with ingredients. One quick note - business was steady on a lazy Saturday afternoon, however there might be a wait during peak times.

Grabbed lunch at Corner Kitchen the other day--never disappoints. Elote bites ($5) were a new try. I thought they'd be smaller for the price point but the three smaller baseballs were hot, filled with oozing cheese and corn, and covered in a rich sauce. Crab Rangoon fries were great and a new winning taco was the Korean Pork tacos. Cheap but GREAT ingredients and flavors. Hands down an 'always recommend'.

Delicious! Definitely a hidden gem, thank you yelp for having this on your top 100 restaurants across the US. The shrimp taco and the birria taco were both equally scrumptious, and even better because it was taco Tuesday. The elote tots and the Rangoon fries were also very yummy! Can't go wrong here.

Walked clean, friendly, and nice atmosphere. Menu had all kinds of options, frier was down, but we will be back to try some of those fun options for tots and fries!! The Korean pork taco!!! I think my favorite thing. Delicious flavor. One of the best things was the house made (shells) because I can't think of the word... just the right size & not to thick. What also made these tasty was to sides of sauce! That should be on the menu to buy! Fabulous! I'm ready to go back!! See you soon

I saw The Corner Kitchen on a best of Yelp 2024 list, so we had to try it while we were in town. It's not a huge space, but they have a lot of seating. We went for lunch on Saturday, and it wasn't too busy. We didn't have to wait long for our food. We shared the elote bites, which were AMAZING. And much bigger than I thought they'd be. A must order!! I ordered a surf & turf taco, and a quesa-birria taco. Both were so yummy. My husband had the surf & turf burrito and loved it. I definitely will be coming back here, and I highly recommend it if you're in Omaha!

The Corner Kitchen was such a pleasant surprise for us! We were in Omaha picking my son up from the airport and had no idea where we were going to grab some food...so I consulted the Yelp top 100 restaurants for 2024 and found this gem! There were 4 of us dining so we decided on a fun mi of things to try. Ended up with the quesa-birria taco, brussel sprout taco, al pastor taco, bang bang chicken sando, nashville chicken burrito, elote bites and kimchi brussel sprouts. Everything was delicious! Food came out one or two items at a time which we didn't mind and actually appreciated! Everything was fresh, hot, and very flavorful! The standouts were the kimchi brussel sprouts, bang bang chicken sando and the elote bites. When in Omaha we definitely recommend checking out The Corner Kitchen!

This is a hole in the wall in a part of Omaha I never really visit, and it's really fun as a result. The place is a melting pot, with all kinds of people walking through the doors. The food is really good. I do have some criticism: 1) The portions on the specialty fries are not generous enough for the price. We had chorizo once and elotes another time, and for the price it's small. 2) I find the burrito a bit dry. I do not understand why the sauce is served on the side instead of incorporated. 3) Input a number system for your guests. I have seen in two trips no less than five orders attempted to deliver to the wrong table. This is such an easy fix, why expect the cashier to remember everything everyone ordered? 3b) Related: it seems pretty consistent that the various items ordered come out staggered. This should be an easy fix imo. Other than these items, delicious ingredients with a creative menu that blends Latin America and Asia. Love it!
