50 Best American Restaurants near Elkhorn

“First time trying Jukes and we will be back! We started with the Brewpub Pretzel, warm crispy exterior, soft insides. Our main dishes were Bacon Jam Melt (they need to jar and sell the jam), and Fish and Chips, it came with three large pieces of fish. I believe the best part were the tatortots. I could not get enough of them. I'll probably be back tomorrow and you should too.“

“Friendly staff, fun environment.“

“If you’re looking for a family friendly Sunday brunch spot in West Omaha this is it! There’s a wide variety of yummy menu items or you can pick from a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes on the brunch buffet. The omelet station is where it’s at! Their chorizo will not disappoint. Most importantly the experience from the moment you step in the door is unlike most restaurants. The staff treats you like family and goes above and beyond! They even have a magician/balloon artist that stops by to entertain. To top it all off having an arcade and movie theatre all in one. For those on a budget it’s very inexpensive for what you get and they have a Loyalty program to save on your next visit. My girls and I look forward to our Sunday funday coming to this magical gem after church!“

“My husband was skeptical when I said I wanted to go into a car dealership for lunch after doing my research- Truly a hidden gem! These guys were so friendly and accommodating, and it was obvious without saying that they love what they do. The food was fantastic (especially the traditional enchiladas with chili con queso added). The kids love cars so this was such a cool treat for them to gawk at all the indoor vehicles while we were waiting. 10/10 recommend!“

“Just a quick note to highlight our great dining experience. Last night, we had the pleasure of celebrating my father-in-laws birthday (around 530PM) at Charleston's Restaurant near Boys Town. Just want to brag on our server, Tommy for a bit. His energy, enthusiasm, friendliness, humor, and service was second to none. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious, too.“

“Everything was delicious from our drinks to our steaks! Great service too!“

“I am very familiar with Culver's and have eaten there in a few states. The food was consistent with what you'd expect at any Culvers. My only issue was, it did take quite a bit of time to get the food. I almost thought they forgot about me.

Also the ketchup dispensers were not really working all that well. It took a look of action to get some ketchup.“

“We stop as often as we can when we’re driving from Kansas City to northern Nebraska. From our first visit, we’ve been impressed with everything from the pleasant service to the creative menu and dishes. My husband’s favorite is the VooDoo Chicken, but warns that it’s not for the ‘faint of mouth’. It’s delightfully spicy and goes beautifully with the accompanying cooked apples and al dente green beans.“

“I can’t get over how great our server was. The red beard guy. And this is the best food I’ve ever had in my life. Wow. Speechless. Coming back next week.“

“We did the Star Wars trivia night and had a blast! Abby was an excellent server! Everything was great!“

“This has become our go-to local coffeehouse for afternoon dates and brunches. The coffee, food, and sweets are fantastic and the service is so consistently cheerful and relaxed that you can tell the staff truly love working at SKC.“

“the atmosphere is nice and quiet. very little chatter and wasn’t overwhelming. my experience at cheddars is always brilliant. servers and staff are consistently great and marvelous. been here several times. we always come back for more. i don’t mean to glaze over this location, but this has gotta be the best chain ever! food is always fabulous and comes out in less than 10 minutes. food tastes fresh and warm. even if you’re hesitant about coming here, you’ll be greeted with a smile.“

“We just ate there for our 6th wedding anniversary last night and it was an amazing experience!! Ally and the staff went above and beyond and made our night so wonderful and memorable 🥰 The food was outstanding and the Billionaire cocktail she recommended was delish! She made the dessert special and everyone even signed a card. She was so personable and genuinely nice, I can't sing Ally's praises enough, thank you again!!!“

“Great people very laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back“

“Wow! This is the first time we have ever been to this Culver’s location. The staff were exceptional- especially Mr Les. We left feeling totally loved and blessed. It was a blessing to go to Culver’s today. While I don’t live close to this location, I’ll be sure to return whenever I’m in the area!“

“Fast, friendly, clean, and GOOD!! 10/10!“

“Delicious! Love the Veal dish that you kept from Brushi menu.“

“Friendly staff, delicious food, wonderful party room, custom to food allergies, thank you for serving our community!

I get their breakfast burrito has spicy cheese curds and they're kind to let me have corn beef as a substitute!“

“James looked after us and was very courteous, professional and a delight to deal with. Excellent venue with a good mix of clientele, without having to go into city centre. Good background music. Food was served very quickly and was absolutely delicious. Great portion sizes. Can't recommend enough.“

“Always awesome. Coffee always filled!“

“45 minutes in the drive thru. Your food is good but really? Staff is short everywhere but never this bad.“

“My singular experience was pleasant. I sat at the bar, and even though there were many small groups around it me, it was still a quiet environment. The music volume was very low, I can't tell you how much I loved that aspect. The bartender was a total pro. My food was delivered quickly and was excellent. I had the goat cheese balls. They were so amazing I pretty much inhaled them. Then I ordered the grilled salmon salad and oh my stars and garters, it was exquisite. I have attached a photo of said salad.“

“Head Chef/Owner Anthony Kueper has set the bar high for other Omaha restaurants. His food is flavorful and unique. Chef Anthony has clearly honed his craft and deserves all the praise that can be mustered. Prices are excellent considering the quality of food and service. The unimposing facade of the building doesn't prepare you for the quaint elegance inside. You will not be disappointed with your experience here, regardless of which menu item you select. You really can't go wrong letting Chef surprise you with his tasting menu, either.“

“5 stars to our server Lindsey! She was fast and so friendly! The food was amazing and came out quick. (we love the lobsterchops! Which was a recommendation.) Also shout out to the manager Chelsea who came out and check on us to make sure everything was perfect. This was a 5 star experience and i can't wait to repeat it very soon!“

“Delicious food from a local bar. Didn’t have the best staffing, only 1 waitress servicing the entire spot, but she was working hard and the food was worth the wait. The cauliflower and wings were our favorites. The chicken strips were huge! The chicken sandwich was also huge!“

“Amazing food, good service and comfortable atmosphere“

“I think its safe to say. Best breakfast I've had in Omaha. Coffee cake is amazing“

“I love first watch! They have so many options for my GF diet and everything is so healthy, delicious, and fresh! Rest assured, they also have the indulgent options for those with a sweet tooth and kids (choc chip pancakes!). My only regret is that I haven’t tried one of their fresh juiced concoctions during one of my visits. Definitely going to make that a priority next time. 😊“

“Great food and service. Very clean atmosphere. Love the tap handles displayed around the room up by the ceiling. Notice next you’re there for dinner or a drink.“

“Always prompt and friendly service. Nice menu variety. Good food! Comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere. Nightly specials are great. A++++“

“Excellent service, great food! Would 100% recommend.“

“I like First Watch bc I can enjoy many things and still stay on track with my eating plan. I would’ve appreciated the option of whole wheat English muffins, but that issue is the same across the entire chain. The server was very solicitous of my daughter’s specific requests for my grandkids’ menu choices (extra plate to share one adult meal, subbing fruit for their potatoes, extra straws and napkins, etc.).“

“I absolutely love this place, I order something different every time and I'm never disappointed.“

“This is definitely by far my go-to place for wings! I like them nice and hot and char-buffed and they never disappoint!“

“excellent food & awesome gift ideas. wish you would open Cracker Barrel OLD Country Store in Kearney, Nebraska. I have to drive over an hour for your store. Thank you.“

“Hosted a bridal shower there. Natalie was wonderful to work with. The food was very good, and the event room was the perfect size. An overall great experience!“

“I was really craving a steak for dinner so we decided to come here. I have eaten at several Longhorn locations and am rarely disappointed. The service is always great and the food is delicious and the steaks are prepared correctly. The Parmesan crusted chicken is always a tasty choice and I really like the fire cracker chicken wraps as a an appetizer. The ranch dressing is very good and the warm brown bread they serve is a great addition to the meal.“

“Great place to eat! Great prices!!“

“Was there on Friday.Great atmosphere Had a good time. Bar tenders were friendly. Drinks are a little high.“

“My server, Velvet, provided EXCELLENT service! I could see she was busy with other guests, but she still attended to me, a solo diner. She was friendly and attentive. My steak was prepared perfectly. I drove out of my way to have lunch here, and I'm glad I did.“

“Had our dinner experience a bit later than hoped for, sorry for the close to closing arrival. Food was great and the guy that brought us our food was awesome! Always had a smile on his face and left a lasting impression of wonderful service! Give him more money! Thanks Culver’s!“

“I reserved the back room and Josh was so easy to work with. The staff is so amazing and attentive. The food is great and the back room was exactly what I needed for my party!“

“If I can describe the atmosphere I would say very positive, family oriented and fun. Shevys is an awesome bar that I get to DJ at and I enjoy the crowd getting down. It’s one of the best bars I’ve played so far and the owner Shevy is awesome I’m glad I was able to meet her, very humble, great owner she takes care of her clients. I look forward doing more business here. Thank you and God bless.“

“Great Fall Special with million dollar bacon, sweet potatoes, and regular potatoes, mushrooms, eggs, kale, cheese, and Mike’s hot honey drizzled over top!“

“Friendly service and great food! my husband and I had the Gizzards. They were hot and crispy. We can also highly recommend the Smoked Thighs with homemade kettle chips. Loved my Hot Tuna Sandwich. I'm a sucker for Sweet Potato Fries and I was not disappointed! Hubby had an Old-fashioned. Done exactly right! We will definitely be back!“
