Dammi Dammi has really good food! We went there for a wine tasting that they featured as a special event on a Wed evening. They served three small tapas - spicy Spanish meatballs (pictured) lamb riblette on toast, and garlic shrimp. They were all excellent! The chef was there and takes pride in his work. It has a nice ambiance and full bar. Prices very reasonable. Great friendly service. Check it out!

I’m im town for a nearby event and needed some caffeine to stay awake for the drive home. Came here because they were open at 8:30pm, which is fantastic in itself, and even better to see what a vibe this place gives. Not to mention the drink I got (salted caramel latte) was very good. I couldn’t stop sipping on it, and I’m not even a huge coffee fan to begin with! Great customer service, too. The gal that took my order said she doesn’t like coffee herself, but she was able to give me a run down on something she’d probably recommend if she did like it, which I thought was very kind of her. Some people would just say “I don’t like coffee, sorry,” and it’s left at that. She even wished me a safe drive home!

My wife and I went here before a show downtown, and it was AWESOME!! For food we got a Tapa of roasted potato with a ‘Bravo’ sauce and the potatoes were cooked perfectly and the sauce on top had a great smoky flavor. My wife had the Shawarma Beef with rice and she enjoyed that a lot. I had the Chicken Harissa with Tabbouleh Salad as the side. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the harissa had such a good flavor! A little spicy, but just enough to cover your pallet.The service was great. You order at the counter and then they bring the food to your table. We spoke with the owners after our meal, while getting gelato for dessert, and they were the nicest people and seemed to genuinely care about what their customers experience was.We will definitely be back! I had their breakfast once before and loved it. Service and food are great! Don’t forget to get that gelato while you are here.(Sorry, picture is only of my food, mostly ?)

Great food and run by great people! We got the beef shwarma and half chicken soup/half salmon salad and everything was fresh and delicious. Owner was very friendly and answered all our questions. Had to get some gelato for dessert. Do yourself a favor and get the brown butter!! So good!!

Great place with excellent food. We had several of the different plates with soup and salad. Owner and staff are very friendly and made a dish different for me due to my gluten sensitivity. Was there for lunch and also got takeout to have for later. The lamb is extremely good.

Casual cafe vibe with interesting art. Does tapas and Mediterranean dishes, as well as gelato and normal coffee shop drinks. All the meats are sous-vide which makes them incredibly tender. We tried nearly everything on the menu and were particularly impressed with a few dishes: bacon-wrapped dates, freshest tasting falafel, lamb with the chickpea salad, and the lemon chicken and rice soup. The service from this family was great. They were so friendly and helpful, and I'm now considering adding a few new spices to my list of staples!

Fantastically satisfying! A lot for the money when it comes to tapas. And all of them were fantastic! Great service too.

The tapas menu has so many yummy items! Garlic shrimp, stuffed artichokes and bacon wrapped dates are some of our favs. And the Gelato, wow. Flavors are always changing and amazing. Smoked sea salt caramel, lavender, browned butter and the Dutch chocolate. Best I've ever had.?

So happy to have stopped by Dammi Dammi the other evening for a gelato. It was a nice opportunity to meet Pat, the owner, and learn a little about the food and theme, plus enjoy the gelato! We went there for Tapas Tuesday for lunch today and we were really delighted. We selected the lamb rillettes and the garlic shrimp to go. Both dishes were generous and amazing! The sauce for the shrimp fish was drinkable!!! The Tapas Tuesday Deal is $1 off tapas if you order two or more. Give it s go! They have recently added a liquor license so if you dine in, you can enjoy a beverage. What a wonderful addition to dining in downtown LNK!
I had a lovely first experience at Dami Dami. Just had the lamb rillette and a macch, and enjoyed it very much. A delightful addition to downtown Lincoln.

Have been here twice now once for breakfast and once for a late lunch. I had the salmon at lunch with the rice. It was wonderful but a bit spicy for my liking. I tend to like foods on the bland side. Today I stopped in to grab breakfast to go and had the best cup of coffee and omelette. It was the tomato basil pesto omelette and even though it had a little unexpected kick it was just the right amount of spice. Pat (owner) always makes you feel so welcome and is genuinely grateful for your business. Thank you for a wonderful start to my day! We will be back

My husband and I tried this tapas restaurant for the first time yesterday evening. The food was incredibly affordable, with high quality, fresh ingredients. Lots of vegetarian options, and the chef was able to accommodate one of the menu items for my dietary needs. The soup of the day was a North African sweet potato soup, and the flavors were amazing. The staff and owner were kind and helpful. I will definitely be back! We ordered the stuffed peppadew, marinated feta, stuffed artichokes with couscous, charred brussel sprouts, as well as two cocktails (Old Fashioned and Manhattan) for $42 total. For as much as we got, the price was great!

They've got the best falafel in town and homemake their own gelato. Their affagato (espresso with a scoop of gelato) is also something I never knew I needed until I order it. Highly recommend coming here! This place is definitely a new favorite for me.
