Big Apple Bagels
Aug 16, 2009 by Bob from Lincoln

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Fresh Bagels.
• Atmosphere.

“Fresh and delicious Bagels and Muffins. The Coffee is topnotch also. I just wish they had a more inviting atmosphere. The seating is hard and cold. They need some cloth and warmth.”

Farmer Brown's Steak House Inc
Jun 29, 2009 by LostThisCustomerForGood

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[1]

• I can't think of any.
• Long drive, over priced food, poor service and rude management.

“Want to learn how to ruin your business overnight, just act like the rude people I saw here. The food was not that good. Long wait time while there were empty tables. Took forever to get the food. Waitress never would stop and ask how everything was. Saw people complain to the manager. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you are looking for a terrible night out!”

King Fong Restaurant
Jun 28, 2009 by John from Houston

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[10]

• My mouth is watering recalling my meal there.
• The stairs are a little step.

“I have eaten at King Fong's many times and always had the same waitress. She actually remembered what we had ordered the last time we were there. They have tables and also booths for privacy. The Chinese food is the very best in Omaha, that I have had and next time I am in Omaha, King Fong's is a definite stop.”

Howard's Charro Cafe
Jun 5, 2009 by John from Omaha

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[1]

• None.
• Food, service, overall experience.

“One of the worst dining experiences of my life. Any of the rich history this establishment had was long gone. The food was sub par Mexican at best. No big deal. However, the service was what really sent this dinner into a nose dive. I will spare you the details of this utterly dehumanizing experience. Let's just say that no accommodation was too small to be ignored. Needless to say, I will not be going back. There are too many good Mexican restaurants in Omaha to waste your time and money at Howard's.”

Indian Oven
May 30, 2009 by Julia from Creston, IA

Overall Rating: 7
Food:[9] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Good food, decent price and great variety of choices.
• Waitress.

“Waitress was a bit of a dip. We ordered specials, but she returned after a half hour and apologized that the menu was from last week and those specials had expired, so we quickly re-ordered. The appetizer came right away and was delicious, and water was offered frequently.”

Bene Pizza & Pasta
May 17, 2009 by Bart from Omaha

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[3] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Good video games.
• The food.

“This pizza place if you can call it that, in a few short words is just awful. Everything tastes as though it came straight out of the box. The dough is very poor, the rest is just mediocre.”

Gorat's Steak House
May 8, 2009 by William

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[4] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Interesting to see Warren Buffet's favorite restaurant.
• Food, service, decor is lacking.

“We had reservations and Gorat's made us wait over 2 hours, and the Gorat's staff never apologized! (This was for the Berkshire Hathaway shareholders dinner, we had reservation for 6PM and we were seated after 8PM). The food is comparable to the mediocre cafeteria food I ate in high school, but their prices are comparable to what you would pay in a nice restaurant. We ate lunch at Dave's Famous barbecue in downtown Omaha that day which was excellent (both in quality of food and service), we should have gone back there for dinner instead of Gorat's!”

King Fong Restaurant
Apr 19, 2009 by Missy from Kansas City, MO

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[7] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Incredible decor and good food.
• Not fast, neighborhood is shabby, no kids menu.

“The staff at our hotel recommended this restaurant. We finally found it and almost left when we saw the steep stairs and empty businesses surrounding it. We are glad we didn't. The food was reasonable and we had enough to split with our kids-there is no children's menu. The staff isn't particularly warm and friendly, but the restaurant is so charming it almost doesn't matter. Original 1920's decor-silks, chandeliers, golden teak trellises and inlaid mother-of-pearl tables-make you feel like you have stepped back in time. My photographer friend couldn't resist quietly snapping a few pictures. The private booths in the back would be perfect for a romantic dinner for two.”

Gas Light Lounge & Restaurant
Apr 13, 2009 by Pablo from Denver

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Very excellent.

Joe Tess Place Inc
Apr 6, 2009 by KK

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] •

• The food.
• Nothing.

“Food was absolutely outstanding! I ordered the carp dinner. The fish was cooked perfectly - crispy on the outside and moist and meaty on the inside! Very generous servings of fish, rye bread and dill pickles! Tasted just like I remember the carp served in the area I grew up in around Bruno and Abie. Brought back many fond memories! I will definitely be back for more!”

Drover (The)
Mar 26, 2009 by Don from Wichita

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• The whiskey fillet was just outstanding.
• Nothing.

“I just moved here from Wichita and the Drover is without a doubt one of the best steaks that I have had in many years. Fresh salad bar with homemade dressings and all types of toppings. Baked potato like they used to be made, excellent. Very friendly staff and the manager wanted to know if everything was to our satisfaction.”

Daily Denton Double Inc
Mar 22, 2009 by Greg from Lincoln

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[1]

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[9]

“A fantastic, good Ole, family place to eat. Down home food and the pies are the best! This is one of my favorite places to eat in Lincoln.”

King Fong Restaurant
Jan 22, 2009 by Shen Tu Ming from Chicago, IL

Overall Rating: 7
Food:[7] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Atmosphere.
• The ownership could be more friendly.

“King Fong's food is good but I go for the atmosphere. It's like a museum of 1920's Hong Kong furniture and decorative arts.”

The Granary Inc
Jan 16, 2009 by jenny from norfolk,ne.

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[10] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Great food.
• Poor service.

“The wait staff are a bunch of trouble makers, mainly the blond with glasses that wears her hair in the clip. What happened to the saying 'The customer is always right'. I have personally seen customers getting cursed out by the so called head waitress, she's lucky it wasn't me she was talking to in that manner or she would have been picking herself up off the floor. Nice carpet by the way! I will no longer be visiting again.”

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[10] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Good food.
• Poor help.

“One of the waitresses is as two faced as they come and the head waitress accuses people of things they don't do. I also think roxy is so spaced out half the time and doesn't know what is going on that she has to tell her, thoughts and lies needless to say they have lost my business for good!”

King Fong Restaurant
Dec 30, 2008 by Dave from Omaha

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[7] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[9]

• Food, atmosphere and price.
• Service was a little slow (but it was pretty busy).

“The food is great, atmosphere is very cool (retro Chinese). Lunch was very reasonable, plus the portions are so large you get plenty to bring home.”

Depot Grill & Pub
Dec 13, 2008 by Mark from Albuquerque

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Barbeque ribs.
• Hard seats.

“Lots of home made dishes and the piano bar make this a delight. My wife and I prefer local restaurants to chains and this is a find! But I have a bad back and the wood seats are hard - I bring in a pillow from the car.”

Drover (The)
Dec 6, 2008 by jan from omaha

Overall Rating: 4
Food:[5] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Good salad bar.
• Service terrible, freezing cold in restaurant, food not good.

“This local will not be flocking back to this place. Service was terrible. Bar is directly across from your dining area - so if you hope to have a quiet dinner you better ask to be seated in the back. If you are dining in the winter time - make sure you take along a sweater or you will freeze. Waitress was unfamiliar with the items on the menu. If you go don't waste your money getting the shrimp which was overcooked and chewy (4 large shrimp for $20.95) - you decided if this is a good value. In my opinion - don't waste your time or money on this joint; where there are many more restaurants more deserving of your money.”

Billy Frogs Bar & Grill
Nov 8, 2008 by Tom from Burlington, NJ

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Food, service and pricing.
• Nothing.

“Had to travel to Omaha each year for a user conference held by our software vendor. Stayed at the Embassy Suites in Old Market and found BillyFrog's. Always had a steak there and food was delicious. Service was quite attentive but back then and (possibly now), you actually ordered your dinner at the window back by the grill and paid for it. Table service was for drins. Regardless, this place was always enjoyable whether for lunch, dinner or just fun and drinks”

Overall Rating: 2
Food:[5] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[4]

Yia Yia's Pizza Beer & Wine
Sep 19, 2008 by amanda

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[8] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Pizza. Establishment. Music.
• Wait can be long. Wine list could be better.

“The pizza is simply amazing. Really it is just so good and I have had pizza all over the world. I would very highly suggest this establishment to anyone who is looking for east coast style (thin crust) pizza that is sublime. The decor is also very cool (art deco/urbanesque). The beer selection is nice if you enjoy beer and the wine is ok. Go, you'll be happy with your choice.”

Food:[9] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Great food for the price.

“The food is very good and affordable. It's a great place to eat if you live in Northwest Lincoln. Small town atmosphere. It's a good place to stop on the way to or from a NU football game. We like to play KENO so that is just a plus.”

Chances R Restaurant & Lounge
Aug 20, 2008 by Jay from silver spring, md

Overall Rating: 4
Food:[5] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Nice atmosphere.
• Poor service, long wait, food did not come as ordered, not all that great when received either.

“Looked like a good place to eat. It took a lot longer than expected, once we seated ourselves in the bar area, it took at least 10 minutes for anyone to acknowledge we were there. Not a big deal but once our order was placed, it took another half hour to get it. The steak was well done when ordered medium and while it looked like good quality meat, it was not good due to how they cooked it. My friend had the chicken and it was nothing to brag about either. Not sure if it was the waitress but they did not seem that busy but yet we had to flag the waitress down several times just to get the bill. It was not worth the trip off the interstate. Would have had better food at Applebees.”

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• This was quite possibly the best food we've ever had.
• Nothing. It was an incredible experience.

“This might have been the best food I've ever had. We tried the restaurant to try something new and were blown away by the excellent food and service It was so good that after every three bites or so we couldn't help but comment on how good the food is. We are definitely going back and telling all our friends to check it out.”

Food:[4] • Service:[4] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Given a large variety of sauces.
• The help attitude.

“We ordered through the drive-through and it was over an hour before closing but we were told they were out of several items. The cashier was very indifferent. When we got to the motel half of the order was wrong and items were missing and the fries and hush puppies were cold and hard.”

McDonald's
May 22, 2008 by Jane Doe from North Platte

Overall Rating: 1

• A lot of the employees are nice.
• The place. Don't go there unless you are starving! Choose another place instead.

“Um, I've worked at this McD's for a while. The management doesn't manage. The employees don't check the orders before they hand them out the window resulting in I'd say 1 of 3 orders has something wrong in it. If you go to this McD's don't go thru the drive thru - go inside so you can Check your order right away. Oh and when the food expires they keep it, they don't throw it away, sometimes things are kept for up to an hour after they should have been tossed.”

Marz Intergalactic Shrimp & Martini Bar

Overall Rating: 5

• The sauvignon blanc was excellent
• Please see above. Terrible smell

“We just had a drink and were considering having dinner, but when I went into the bathroom on the first floor, the smell of urine was so strong that I felt sick to my stomach and had to leave. All they have to do is scrub the bathroom floor and then it might be a nice place to stay and eat!”

Caniglias Venice Inn
Mar 5, 2008 by JULIANNE from ALLEGANY NY

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[9]

• Great steaks and Italian cuisine.
• Wish we had discovered this restaurant earlier.

“The owner was very gracious and treated our family like we were part of his family. The atmosphere was old world romantic for dining, the food was fabulous (the owner personally cooked our steaks after hearing my dad talk about the beef he raises), and the lounge was a lot of fun after dinner. It was one of the most fun nights we had in Omaha. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you want romance, fun, friendly service, and have the owner treat you like you are part of his family.”

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[8] • Service:[5] • Atmosphere:[5]

• Great chips and dip!

“The food was really good! I enjoyed my meal, but the guy who owns the place is a jerk. He has been known to yell at customers and his employees. His is not the person you want running a business.”

Trovatos Italian Restaurant
Feb 22, 2008 by Jim D from Omaha

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Great food and drink.
• Parking is limited.

“The experience we had was completely different. Since the new owners took over the layers of caked-on tobacco smoke are gone as well as the roaches and dirty sticky dark red plastic tablecloths and cheesy red light bulbs in the dining rooms. The food has changed from marginally edible to authentically Italian and delicious. Now we are actually able to eat there without worrying about food poisoning.”

Drover (The)
Feb 13, 2008 by Mike from Kansas City

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[10] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Large portioned entries and ice cold beer.
• Smoking situation but that is Omaha wide.

“The Drover was recommended to us by a friend here in KC and we were not disappointed. We actually sat in the bar area and the bartender was super friendly and took very good care of us. She actually stayed open a little later than usual so we could finish watching the game (College World Series). The whiskey steak was excellent and cooked to our specifications. The Miller Light bottles were the coldest I'd ever had. The salad bar was small but well stocked and the plates were chilled. The whole place is a little dark and rustic but for me, is part of why I liked it. Prices were a little high but the quality of the steak more than made up for it. If you are ever in Omaha I definitely suggest that you make time to visit The Drover.”
