Showed up on July 3rd in the afternoon and they were the only place open. The food was taking a little long but not enough to worry when the owner came out to tell us that they had some issues in the kitchen they were resolving. It was amazing to see the owner go to every table to let them know what was happening. Food came out not too long after and was honestly delicious. The beef dip was perfect. The only thing better than the food was the sercvice. Our waitress was very responsive and kind. Would highly recommend.

Went for an early lunch to celebrate a birthday. Sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the beautiful day. Art & Soul has great service, even on the patio. Sometime restaurants tend to favor the inside, here the service was just as good outside. Had a light lunch and a bottle of white wine. The wine was brought with a cooler to keep it the proper temperature which was an added service. So in short, food is delicious, service is spot on and the wine list is great! Also important to note, they do offer half portions for those looking to a light lunch. Inside can get a bit loud when very full.

Delicious! So many vegetarian options and a great drinks menu! I had the Ghost of Bene and the Greek nachos. Service could be a bit more attentive and faster, but the food is soooooo good!

Dine in, great service. The salmon was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Delicious! The pear/pecan salad very good, fresh. This was a great find in Lincoln. I’ve definitely got to make time for a return visit.

I really don’t like writing but I’m visiting Lincoln, NE and I have happy tears and want to make sure you all get the opportunity to try this restaurant! Art & Soul is one of my FAVORITE places I’ve ever eaten!!! Unique food, healthy and fresh, decor was clean and modern, but warm and inviting at the same time. It’s family owned - in fact the whole family works there and still enjoys each other’s company outside of work 🙂. They design the decor, menu’s, and strategies as a family and they have definitely succeeded! To top off all the delicious food, my server and everyone who worked there had enthusiasm, smiles, personable, and genuine! In fact, another customer near me just stood up to leave, shook his server’s hand and said “Excellent service sir!”
For the food…..
This French toast is the best and most unique I’ve ever had! It’s covered in corn flakes with a cream cheese, strawberry, jalapeño filling! A little sweetness with a little heat - beautifully balanced flavors, unique, and it’s so perfect!
I also got the Benedict Hammy. Excellent! I’ve been searching for the perfect holladaise sauce for 13 years and I finally found it! The sauce actually has flavor- it has just the right amount of lemon in it but not too much! Also, the consistency wasn’t too thin or too thick - it was perfect! The candied ham added the perfect amount of flavor but didn’t overpower. The egg was cooked perfectly as well - not too runny and not overcooked!
The pita gravy nachos!!!! So unique and delicious! The gravy was loaded with flavor - but didn’t taste like I was eating straight up sausage.
Wow! The latte was delicious! I got the Snickerdoodle Butternut Latte and it was perfect! It didn’t taste burnt or watered down.
The Herbal Infused lemonade was amazing! (Mint, thyme, rosemary, dill, and lavender) I could actually taste the herbs! Also, a lot of time lemonade tastes water down or too sweet - not this one! Perfect in every way!
I would say this place is perfection!
Thank you for this unforgettable experience Art & Soul! I’ll be back!!!!!

I love everything at Art and Soul. My absolute faves are the pear pecan and buffalo chicken flatbread (chefs kiss). They make super delicious fresh cocktails, and to die for carrot cake. Best of Lincoln!

It is rare to find a place with amazing and varied gluten-free options, a conscientious and knowledgeable staff AND a gorgeous atmosphere, but this place was exceptional in all three areas. My granddaughter loved the cauliflower crust flatbread and warmed celiac friendly chocolate chip cookie. Her server cooled her cocoa to a safe temperature for a 9-year-old and made ger feel special. My hint of ghost pepper Mac n cheese with avocado, tomato and sunflower seeds was an unexpected, but delicious combination. My hot tea was wonderful. We are definitely returning with more family members!

Food is always great especially when you have a gluten allergy. But, they lost a customer today they had to upcharge today, I've never been upcharged in the past.
It was a 5⭐ early evening dinner for us at Art & Soul. We shared the pear-pecan salad (we did the balsamic dressing) - best salad ever. For the 1st time, we ordered the Moroccan flatbread. A treat for the taste buds! The owner came by and we talked about the rotating list of soups they served. She brought us samples of the soup du jour - creamy pea-basil - fresh from the harvest. If we weren't so full, we would have ordered that too. Service great!

Recently dined at a nearby favorite Art & Soul. Started with the Greek Nachos, highly recommend! The roasted peppers, pickled onions, artichokes, all are incredibly tasty. Topped with amazing hummus, olive tapenade, balsamic, each delicious in their own right. Rounded out with cukes, pepperoncini, tomatoes, feta. So Freaking Good!
My husband saw the Meatloaf on their specials menu and got super excited. Had a moment when told they were out ☹️. Instead he went with the Bahn Mac. Beef, bbq, pickled veggies, and Sriracha. He loved it, said he'd totally get it again. It was the most complimentary he's ever been about mac & cheese ?. Was also impressed with the Tomato Basil Feta Soup and Yummy Cappuccino ☕️.
I ordered a 1/2 sandwich, the Cheese Toastie, which I've had before. It's supposed to have 3 kinds of cheese and a garlic aioli. Unfortunately the filling was almost nonexistent. At 9 bucks I'm really hoping it was just a fluke. Super bummed . Conversely, the 1/2 Pear Pecan Salad (minus bacon) I also had was overflowing with toppings! Pears, cranberries, pecans, chunks of boursin, and a maple mustard dressing. 10 outta 10!
Lastly I enjoyed an Aloha Margarita. Layers of flavors, citrus and coconut. It was great! This place is a little on the pricey side but seems to prioritize quality ingredients. Service was attentive and collaborative. They also have a Grab & Go Cooler filled with soups, dips, desserts, bread, etc. If so inclined they offer various cooking classes, evenings with live music, and other events. It's a good page to follow for updates!

Art & Soul Cafe and Bar was Nebraska Passport 2024 stop number 23 for us. The Eggs Benedict Hammy was top notch as was the Shrimp Salad. The gift shop did not disappoint, the service was great, and we successfully resisted the temptation of the carrot cake, but it was hard. The shopping center itself is also appealing with a lot of little shops and boutiques. Hopefully some of them will be on the Nebraska Passport 2025 circuit.
