I love the Neighborhood feel of this place -- The Biscuits & Gravy was amazing and Breakfast Burrito were on point! Overall an very good gastronomic experience, I definitely would return to try more dishes. Service was well-timed and friendly, I definitely recommend this as a place to eat for any travelers looking for a great dining experience. It’s like traveling back in time to have a great meal.

Brother Sebastian's Steakhouse & Winery

Reviewed By yellowdog51

Hearing that Brother Sebastian's was one of the best steakhouse experiences in Omaha, I made reservations and took my wife here for our anniversary. Overall, we were disappointed.The Good:* The steaks (ribeye and sirloin) were absolutely delicious and prepared perfectly.* The atmosphere is dark and cozy, great for special occasions.* By and large, the prices are not unreasonable for what you get.The Bad:* Our waiter was terrible - constantly forgetting to submit our orders, disappearing for long stretches of time. I had to actually get up and search for her when it was time to pay the bill.* The walls near our table were dirty and smeared with food. In fact, the whole place felt like it needed a good cleaning.* Our waiter-recommended appetizer (shrimp scampi) was tasty but unbelievably overpriced for the 7 butter-drenched, cheese-smothered shrimp you actually receive.* The salad bar had a limited selection and was located in a cramped room, with little space to maneuver if there were others in the room with you. Salad fixings were spilled everywhere.Surely this cannot be one of THE best steakhouses in this entire city. It feels more like a place that *used* to be really special, but has gone downhill and is coasting on reputation alone.For us, this was one-and-done, and we will not be back.

Reviewed By donns305

Proprietary dough and incredible ingredients make this pizza one of the best in the Midwest. Created by Godfathers pizza magnate Willy Theisen, this pie is a masterpiece. Whatever the ingredients, you will have visions of nirvana with every bite. Try Willy’s favorite or for that mater, any of these works of art and you will think you died and went to pizza heaven. Try the artichoke appetizer to round things offAnd the service???? Well, Dean is one of the best restauranteurs in the business. Ask for him at the west O location

Really enjoyed this place. We were able to get a reservation for a business dinner and I couldn’t be happier that we did. I had the Reisling (very tasty), the cheese board as an appetizer, and the wailea stew. Interesting flavors and textures...all very tasty. Expect the atmosphere to be loud because the place fills up fast.

11-Worth Cafe

Reviewed By DianeL133

We were in town for a 1:00pm production at the Orpheum and wanted a good brunch that would hold us until dinnertime. Of course, we had checked TripAdvisor and found this highly rated spot. As we pulled up and saw the throng waiting outside, we wondered if there would be time for us to wait. At the check-in, we were told ~30 minutes. OK...worth a try. There is ample waiting space indoors and coffee and water are furnished. Our wait was closer to 40 minutes, but once seated, the service was extremely prompt and courteous. These servers run their tails off! We each had a pretty basic breakfast but both were perfectly prepared and delicious. Prices were very reasonable. We'll come back to try some "fancier" fare when we have more time to spend. Glad to now know about this place tho, as we are in Omaha fairly frequently.

Dimly lit and darkly finished, it was the perfect setting for an indulgent dine, and the right choice for our anniversary dinner. The server was very knowledgeable, attentive and engaging. Some wine samplings helped us make a good selection, and we were off to the races.The Lobster Corn Chowder is not to be missed! Rich in body and flavor, chunks of lobster, thick in texture ... my wife wanted to take some to go until we realized they have a restaurant in our home town, too! She went with the Lobster Macaroni and Cheese as her meal and was not disappointed. The rich Mornay sauce was filling and sumptuous; the pasta was perfect. The server (and my wife) convinced me to try the off-menu Wagyu beef, the off-shore equivalent of Kobe beef, we were told. The steak was perfectly cooked and appropriately charred. I have no complaints about what I got but buyer beware! If you chose a heavily marbled product, go with a lean cut or you'll get a double-dose of marbling! It was tasty, and I enjoyed every bite, but the fat content made me nervous!We were too full for dessert. But the server celebrated our anniversary anyway, and the complementary Creme Brulee - also exquisitely prepared - was not wasted on either of us. Thank you!Will certainly go again but will need to wait another paycheck.

Reviewed By troy w

There were 3 of us, and the ladies ordered a bottle of wine with help from the staff. After talking to them he suggested a bottle of wine, and it was decently priced and matched their food perfectly. Overall, we were very satisfied and will be going there again. Total for 3 meals, appetizer, my drinks, and a bottle of good wine, was under 150 dollars. Very happy!

The Flatiron Cafe

Reviewed By DanAtlantic

Every course we ordered was delicious and served exactly as requested. And it's obvious the service staff is trained well - friendly, knowledgeable and accessible but not hovering or pretentious. Their wine suggestions were spot-on and we were visited by our servers periodically but were never rushed. Our favorite meal during our recent stay in Omaha. We look forward to returning when we travel to the city in the future.
