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

“Great place to eat! Great prices!!“

“9-2-2025 PM; check#39; Super great service; Only two employees on duty. The cook was very focused on service, getting the special order exactly right the first time with no additional questions with a very helpful attitude. Thank You“

“Stopped in after a long day of shopping so that we could catch the last half of the Chiefs game and grab some grub. We were (surprisingly) able to find a table pretty quickly. We were so indecisive while ordering, which is weird because it's one of our favorite places, but our server, Collin, was super patient and gave an excellent recommendation of the garlic buffalo sauce for my wife's chicken sandwich.
Our food was excellent, as always. There was a slight goof on the number of wings I ordered/received, not a big deal at all. Collin and the staff handled it like pros and went above and beyond to make it right. We were so excited to eat we forgot to get pics of our food and cold leftovers in a styrofoam box won't do it justice 😆
We love this place and will continue to come back.“

“Perfect in every way!“

“Thank you Todd for fantastic drive thru service. My food was hot and fast. He suggested some kind of French onion or something sauce for my onion rings when I requested something to dip them in. I wish we had Runza in Minnesota. I hopped off the freeway when I saw the sign. San Diego here I come! But first, we Runza! My brother is so jealous right now.“

“Very friendly staff, pancakes were amazing and the freshly baked biscuits were over the top!!!!“

“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.“

“always skim your milk when you're having a latte“

“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.“

“The best food, cocktails, and staff 🤩“

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

“always skim your milk when you're having a latte“

“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.“

“always skim your milk when you're having a latte“

“Street tacos were amazing!! Onion rings…. Amazing! Everything gf! I had not had onion rings in 2years. Our waitress was a total delight and very helpful. I can’t wait to go back.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Our party of six had great service and everyone enjoyed their food: beef tips, ribs, Monte Christo sandwich, baked potato soup, wrap, and Grilled Chicken pecan salad. Would definitely eat here again! The complimentary croissants with honey butter were great, too!“

“Sapp Bros truck stop near I-80 and 144th street in Omaha, Ne at the Coffee Kettle Cafe with my server Kelly.

I had an enjoyable meal of a Home style cafe feel, and warm friendly service. I am loving the new ways that Sapp Bros is having restaurants nowadays!! Check out the fresh made food. I had chicken strips with Real mashed potatos, small side salad, and a slice of lemon meringue pie with sweet tea to drink.

Though next time i will be having the hand-breaded chicken friend steak with real mashed potatoes...😋 Yum!

Large enough room from 2 to 6 people at tables and booths, as well as a party room for a bit of privacy for meetings and/or get togethers, too.“

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

“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!!!“

“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.“

“We had a large party dining together, and our server, Vickie M., absolutely knocked it out of the park. From the moment we sat down, she was friendly, organized, and incredibly attentive. Managing a big group is never easy, but she handled every order perfectly—no missed items, no delays, and always with a warm smile.

She checked on us often without ever feeling intrusive, kept drinks filled, accommodated special requests, and made sure everyone at the table felt taken care of. Her professionalism and positive attitude truly elevated our experience.

Thank you, Vickie, for helping make our gathering so enjoyable. Outstanding service—we’d be happy to have you as our server again!“

“Amazing food, good service and comfortable atmosphere“

“The place is spotless. The foods delicious. The bathrooms are beautifully decorated, and modern. It's obvious the owners care about their customers comfort, and enjoyment. I also noticed they have many events. I went to their benefit poker tournament to play. I had the most fun I'd had in years.“

“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. 😊“

“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.“

“Excellent Reuben, Pork Tenderloin sandwich with fries and slaw!!! Great service, clean restaurant rooms, clean dining room, close parking. First time there, duly impressed will be back!“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“A new place for my spouse and me. A cut above Texas Roadhouse and Outback, which we also enjoy. Nice decor: comfortable and relaxing. Roomy and clean. I had a burger, done exactly how I like it (rare). Fries were good, too. Onion rings appetizer was very good. My wife had a grilled chicken strawberry salad which she enjoyed.\nThe service was outstanding! Our server Yolanda was friendly, capable and attentive. Their new manager also introduced himself to us and made sure we were satisfied. Very much! We were given complimentary ice cream for dessert, it being my birthday.\nA very enjoyable time to briefly get away.“

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

“I spent a special birthday at this friendly firecracker and had the best time!! Atmosphere was perfect and comfortable and the staff felt like family. I was especially impressed with the one of a kind 🍹 drinks. I had the pleasure of sitting next to the owners that night, what an amazing couple! It was Saturday night and I experienced karaoke on a whole new level and the DJ was the best ever! Do yourself a favor and go check out this spot, I know I will back! ♥️“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“What a fun night out to eat at Cheddar's. We opted to belly up to the bar for their famous drink called a pain killer. It's a beautiful drink with a coconut 🥥 rim and cherries. The service from the bartenders was fantastic, so we decided to eat at the bar. The bar is fully stocked and the experienced bar tenders work their magic with their delicious cocktails served strong and tasty. The appetizers were onion rings piled high with 2 different dipping sauces. We also tried the delicious fried cheese curds. The salads were crisp and wonderful. The menu boasts many items for lots of tastes, but we chose the ribeye and chicken fried chicken . We were not disappointed. Everything came out on time, hot, fresh and filling. The presentation was nice, too. The tvs were hosting the football games and the crowd was happy. Very friendly and accommodating staff. They knew how to work as a team to handle the crowd. It was packed but enjoyable. We had leftovers.“

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

“Stopped in with a friend to grab a quick meal on a Tuesday night. I ordered the BLT and was super surprised that it was an amazing triple-decker!! So good!! My friend ordered the tacos that were on special, and she said that they were great. Service was wonderful. Of course, we'll be back!“

“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.“

“We reserved Jack’s party room for an after-work office social. Great room, food selections were wonderful and server was GREAT!! (Paige). Would absolutely recommend for any party/social for a group!!“
