The atmosphere of this restaurant was comforting and very nice. However, my husband went to get food later in the night and ordered the italian chicken sliders. He has an allergy to pine nuts and the only ingredient listed on the menu was “basil”. come to find out, this basil is actually pesto made with pine nuts. He has an allergy to pine nuts and it was not listed as an ingredient on the menu. Even if the wording was pesto instead of basil, he would have been flagged to ask about his allergy. He noticed after paying and taking the food to the room that this sandwich actually contained pine nuts and could have caused a severe allergic reaction if he had not noticed. Once he went down, he was given a subtle sorry and was told the kitchen was closed. There were no efforts to fix the situation or even get a refund for the food we had to throw away. it was overall an extremely disappointing experience and ended with him not being able to eat with no attempt to make things right. The restaurant was beautiful however allergies should be taken as a serious consideration and the menu should reflect the actual ingredients of their items. I was severely disappointed and again, paid a hefty price for food that went straight into the garbage for their miscommunication.

We were staying at the Kindler Hotel and wanted to unwind after a long day on the road. Boitano Lounge is beautiful, so relaxing, and delicious! The hotel offered a discount for guests on their website, which we utilized. We felt pampered and refreshed here!

Very overpriced for very average drinks

Absolutely a must visit if you are looking for top-shelf alcohol, along with someone who knows how to mix it. Great wine selection, the old fashion's and smoked Manhattan are wonderful. Nice little bar with lots of lounge seating.

Boitano's is an upscale, classy bar, and the atmosphere is magical! Service was top-notch and the charcuterie was to die for. The cocktails are amazing! I believe our bartender/server's name was Bobby and he was friendly and very knowledgeable about the drinks and other menu options. The setting is somewhat intimate and definitely comfortable. The decor is a big part of the experience. We happened to be there right after Christmas and the trees were still up. It had a magical feel with all the lights and featured decor. Definitely will go back!

Excellent service and drinks. Our bartender was friendly and courteous. The atmosphere is magical with all of the Christmas trees and the charcuterie was amazing! Definitely hit the spot.

Great find on our visit to Lincoln Neb. We had short rib flat bread (good execution), Brussels sprouts (wonderfully carmalized), and Union Car cocktail and Prosecco. All delish. The restaurant is in a beautiful setting within the Kindler hotel (another great discovery). We’re originally born and raised in Ljncoln but had been away for 45+ years. This place makes us want to come back soon.

Didn't eat... Only drank. Fantastic cocktails, but quite pricey. They're all around the $20 mark per cocktail, and the cocktails aren't large. They are however expertly crafted and very good... Just don't think you'll get out of there cheap.

Inside of a boutique hotel (The Kindler). Upscale, sophisticated, and played back. If you're looking for a quiet place to have some drinks with a friend(s), this is a great place to do it.

2 drinks and 1 flatbread $65. Fine if your on a nice date, but a bit much for a quick bite. Nonetheles, a nice place with limited seating mostly not really comfortable.

An upscale lounge decorated in a fabulously modern style offering unique, quiet, relaxing spaces. Very creative (somewhat pricey) cocktails served by appropriately attentive staff. The charcuterie board was hearty, tasty and just right for four of us to share in an atmosphere perfect for conversation. We'll be back to this intimate downtown lounge.
