10 Best American Restaurants near Omaha

“Best burgers around! Everything I've had here has always been exceptional. Great beer selection, always ice cold, always got good music on. Well worth taking the Omaha bypass when coming through Harrison and Branson“

“Second time here and was as good if not better than before. Their location has moved in the past year but it's not much further than it was before. We highly recommend the loaded hash browns. Their portions are big so if you aren't starving you could easily share. The service is always top notch too! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED“

“We had a reservation but waited until a table opened downstairs. There was live music which was fun but very loud for such a small area. Food came out quickly and was delicious. The wait staff seamed like they were spread thin. Took awhile for the waitress to come back for drinks.“

“I have eaten at this restaurant quite a few times and I keep going back! A lot of the food is made from scratch and they have large portions! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable! It’s just a great place all around. If you haven’t eaten there yet, I highly recommend it! You won’t be disappointed!“

“The food was decent. Nothing to write home about.\n\nSome in our group enjoyed fish and chips.\nThe pizza was eaten quickly.\nI was told the bison burger had a weird texture and only half was eaten.\nThe nachos consisted of about two bags of chips, 2 cups of congealed nacho cheese, a drizzle of bbq sauce, and maybe 1/2 cup of brisket. The remaining toppings we ordered on the side. Wouldn’t get them again. \n\nHowever, Jeremy, our server, was so polite, kind, understanding, and on top of things. Our entire group couldn’t stop talking about him and we made sure to let him know as well. If only every server could be like him!“

“My daughters and I dined here and I am absolutely stunned by the amazing views from every angle of the restaurant and bar!! Beautiful and the food was absolutely delicious! We will come back every year!“

“Heather was our waitress and she was amazing. The food, the atmosphere was warm, inviting and I honestly cannot remember a dinner the I enjoyed every bite. I had the special with the pork chop, hubby had the butternut squash ravioli. They started us off with a crostini with cream fresh pears and basil pecans, to die for. Then after dessert we had chocolate mint macarons. Highly recommend if you are staying at Big Cedar lodge or just visiting. Thank you Heather for taking your time with us and making it a special anniversary dinner.“

“We sat outside with the beautiful views. I liked that it was screened in to keep any bugs at a minimum. The hamburger was delicious and our waitress was very attentive. My only complaint was the fries were lukewarm and a little blah. A little seasoning salt would have gone a long way. I works definitely go back“

“The serve at the bar was awesome!! The bartender ‘Tim’ was friendly and provided great service! We highly recommend the Buzzard Bar!“

“This place was amazing. Unfortunately we got there just after sunset but the atmosphere and Christmas lights were amazing. We were seated quickly and had an amazing server named Anthony. He was super knowledgeable about the Drinks and walked us through the whole menu and tended to us graciously. The food was absolutely delicious and hate great plate presentation. We will absolutely be coming back hopefully for the sunset next time!“
