Icing on the cake was when Jordan realized hubs was celebrating his birthday today, she brought him a candle (cake was already half eaten!) We did not have a reservation for lunch but was seated right away in a cozy corner window table. A perfect spot for us! Definitely recommend.”

The food, as always, was outstanding (they by far make the best cheeseburger in Lincoln...hand-formed beef patties with just the right amount of juiciness)....when we left, FOUR different employees acknowledged us. The worker sweeping the floor told us to have a great evening, and he thanked us for coming, the person working in the kitchen thanked us and told us to have a nice evening, the guy wiping tables thanked us and told us to come back, and the person at the order counter said goodbye and thanked us for coming. WOW! Good food and great service! You just don't find that kind of employee kindness and attention anymore, so Don and Millies now has a permanent customer with us!”

The manager overheard that we were out of town and part of a wedding party, and he gave us free ice cream cones. Just overall very kind and generous!”

    “My husband and I came here for our anniversary and we never get to go out to dinner so we were really excited. The service was amazing, our waitress was so nice and it was super cozy and clean. The drinks were the best part, my husband had an old fashioned and I had a martini and some wine. The escargot is also really good. The reason why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because my husband’s king cut prime rib was supposed to be medium rare and it was more like medium well… which is basically a crime against humanity lol. Also my lobster Mac and cheese had a couple really chewy pieces of lobster meat, like so chewy I had to spit them out. Other than that the food was wonderful, just make sure they cook your steak to your liking and maybe don’t bother with the lobster Mac and cheese! Someday when we can afford to go out again we will likely go back.”

On the day we were there there weren't a ton of people there but we enjoyed half-price appetizers and 40% off of wings. We ordered the wings and while I've had better wings, these were still very good. I ordered the smoked variety with blue cheese dipping sauce. I'll go back again to enjoy the half-price appetizers. I can't say enough good things about this venue's cleanliness and the friendly prompt service.”
