Some else had catfish and ribs and said they were both great. After you order they give you "pager" the lights up when your food is ready. That was great as I was able to walk around and enjoy the event while waiting.“

“We stayed at The Farnam and decided to have dinner at Dynamite Woodfire Grill during Omaha Restaurant Week. This ended up being one of my favorite meals of our entire weekend!
The restaurant has an upscale atmosphere without feeling stuffy, and I loved the focus on wood-fired cooking. You can see the flames at your table from the oven! Everything felt elevated from the presentation to the overall experience, and it was so convenient having such a great restaurant right inside our hotel. From the corn bread, to the gazpacho, to steak, and dessert...this spot is INCREDIBLE.
I’d definitely come back to try more of the regular menu next time we’re in Omaha—even if we weren’t staying at The Farnam!“

“Came to Omaha for a conference and it was within walking distance to my hotel. The bartender recommended a good beer 🍺 and the Tipsy Cuban sandwich 🥪 which were both good. Nice local pub to get a burger and a beer.“

“Can’t say enough good things about The Boiler Room! Such a beautiful, intimate environment with the friendliest servers and unbelievably talented staff. The presentation of each plate is like a piece of art. The chef and team’s food is some of the most mouthwatering, flavorful food you will ever eat!! Definitely a hidden gem in downtown Omaha. Can’t wait to go back again!!“

“I would like to get busy a thumbs up 110% went there on Valentine's Day night they texted me I came back after I was there and couldn't get in I sat next to a wonderful absolutely wonderful girl named Allie we talked for hours and give me a ride home and I just had the most wonderful time for being a Valentine's Day and not having a boyfriend I didn't need one I don't need one but I made a new friend named Allie from Beatrice and I am so pleased and happy for that and hopefully things will pan out as friendship can subside and thank you busy for everything you have done and do for me when I do come there I really appreciate it and I tried to put good reviews for you guys anything I could do for you you tell me and vice versa thank you again“

“Noah was amazing, amazing food and drinks“

“We had our rehearsal dinner at Jams Old Market in downtown Omaha. We were able to rent the Loft 204 upstairs for our event. My husband and I loved the venue from the very beginning! The exposed brick walls, the privacy for our event, and the ability to see where we got engaged were all big aspects we were looking for! The bartender was amazing. The food was even better! It truly felt like a dream come true from the moment we walked through the door. Jams was accommodating for our littles and provide our family with a delicious meal the night before our wedding day. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who is looking for a private and intimate venue and wants their loved ones to feel like royalty!“

“Very good service the are very nice people and kindly“

“Jace, close to his name. He was awesome. He provided great service. Very personable, told the manager how much we enjoyed him. We were there Wednesday afternoon. Council Bluffs location.“

“Always great food, one of the best places downtown!“

“Stir was a great time. Had been awhile since I had been there but great time with great weather. Being able to bring in chairs and blankets is great to relax before the show and in between sets. You do have to remove your chair from the bag during security which is a little annoying but not bad. Really enjoyed the drink station where you tap your card grab your drinks and it auto bills you. Definitely will be back for another show when someone I’m interested in comes.“

“Very nice restaurant in a truck stop. I had a good burger and a salad. The signature burger sauce I had on the side and it tasted tangy and very yum. Service is great. I had delicious banana cream pie for dessert. This is a great stop on our last travel day of vacation.“

“I have had the opportunity to have Kristin’s amazing cookies at two of my events this year! Both times the cookies were absolutely gorgeous and tasted amazing! I got so many compliments from guests and cannot wait to order more in the future! She is amazing so work with!!“

“Burgers were amazing! cool.place“

“Nothing but good things to say! Always stop by whenever I’m downtown. Deviled eggs are unique, unlike any I’ve ever tried but a most favorite of mine from the menu“

“Excellent food, service, price, and selection!! One of my new favorites; local, quaint, delicious.“

“Visiting from Vegas and found this gem thanks to my cousin! I can see why their burgers are award winning! Vanessa was our server and she was great too! The only disappointment I had was they had no magnets to buy 😔 just T-shirts for souvenirs. We will definitely be back again!“

“Delicious food. Great atmosphere. One of Omaha's hidden gems.“

“I love Block16. One of my first times eating here I ended up eating lunch right next to Chris Stapleton when he was touring in town, so you know if famous folks are TOLD to go here, you know it's good.

We ordered a pretty large / catering-sized order for our office of about 30 people ahead of time and they made it really easy for us. I'm not sure if it's something they would always do, but their attention to detail, organization, and overall customer service in addition to just HOW GOOD THE FOOD IS -- it's worth navigating all the construction downtown right now.

DO IT! Also ate too quickly to take any photos. Just eat here, please.“

“Today was our 4th trip to Culvers. The meal we had was delicious. They have the softest pretzels and hot cheese I have ever had. I was really disappointed though with the raspberry malt. it looked like a chocolate malt instead of a raspberry one. I took a swallow and got a big mouth full of malt flavor. topped off with big chunks of raspberry. it might have been good if it was one of the cement drinks. I called back and told the worker what had happened, he said bring it back and we'll make a new one. Thank you for your kindness sir. I would definitely recommend Culvers to anyone“

“Great food and atmosphere but needs work on handling large crowds for events. Tonight my fiance and I had a wild experience lol. Arrived knowing we would wait, was quoted 30 min to 1 hour. Agreed and took a seat at the bar for drinks, table was available within the 30 min time frame which was great. Was seated and didn’t see a server for 35 minutes, we expected a wait and wasn’t too bothered at this point over it. Once the server came over to us he said he thought we were being taken care of already since I had a drink from the bar. We brushed it off and placed our drinks and food order at that time. My food came out within 5 minutes and we were pretty stunned with how quick that came considering how packed it was. Now, after 10 min of him not getting his order and we also didn’t have our drinks we looked around to find someone to ask. I called out to the server and the manager several times, but didn’t succeed in grabbing their attention and fiance didn’t want me to get up and find someone. 40 minutes after my food arrived the server came up to us and I asked about his food and our drinks. I said well just take our bill and a to go box for mine. He did bring out my fiancés order and removed it from the bill. We understand it’s not entirely the servers fault but overall we were pretty bummed since we do enjoy this spot for the atmosphere and the food has always been good. A few other tables also were saying they had similar experiences tonight and also just wanted their bills as well.“

“A very relaxing Saturday morning breakfast at this small neighborhood cafe. The staff was polite and efficient, the menu selection stuck to the basics and the portions are plentiful. Would definitely recommend a breakfast or lunch at this establishment.“

“This is the best thing Omaha has going in food. The owner levels the playing field for all food businesses in Omaha to have a chance to grow. Pay is in line with output. Every ethnicity of food an taste is able to utilize this space and thrive. Kudos Omahas lunches are better because Dandelion is here.“

“great menu but Maddy is the one that rocks the bar and gives the experience! in town for the college world series and our first time. she answered all the questions and did it with a warming attitude. we couldn't have asked for more during our meal. she also crushed the service bar and I hope her tip out reflects the effort she puts in. from one bartender to another great job“

“The daily specials are always good and a great value.“

“Best food in Council Bluffs!!“

“Best pizza in Omaha doesn’t matter the location for MaMa’s. Best cheese, best toppings and is always consistent every single time. Started (and still go to) visiting Saddle Creek 20 years ago and now we order more often from 156th and Pacific location closer to home. Both excellent!“

“Our group of sports enthusiast have been spending a lot of time at 3rd Base lately, especially during March Madness. Tonight was great, Hailey stayed open for us so that we could stay and watch Iowa State Play. The outcome wan't the best but, once a fan, always a fan. Love the new remodel, the food is always hot and really good. They never miss a beat when it comes to taking care of us. Mary P, thank you for always helping to get us set up. Hailey, you were fantastic tonight THANK YOU! I would highly recommend this business.“

“My husband and I were there the 23rd. Very welcoming greeting got a table immediately. The server(she) was delightful and promoted. The decor is outstanding. We loved it!“

“I don’t know how I went 26 years living in Omaha and only now did I make my way to Harold’s. I have been majorly missing out. Everything on the menu is amazing, especially the chorizo, pancakes and eggs. I have to go back for a donut very soon. The price is also totally affordable! Highly recommend to everyone who likes a solid comfort breakfast.“

“Came into town for the Omaha Zoo and looked up places with karaoke and Kikkers popped up! Darts boards, Touchtunes (before karaoke), pool tables and cheap drinks and slot machines! What more do you need? Definitely will be back! Oh and we had the chicken tenders and house made chips and both were SO good!“
