“I love this place! So inviting and comfortable“

“I love Martini's & this place was on my list for my bday on 12/15 - yes I know its not open on Sun, so my plan was to go on Sat the 14th. Weather interfered w ice storm on Fri 13th, so Sat night was super packed & i wasn't able to even get in....no biggie, went to Roxxy n had a blast! Fast forward to my bff coming out from NY n here for Christmas n we decided to go out on 12/28 n try again & yay we were able to finally get in! The place is so elegant n beautiful & has a very classy comfortable feeling to it - I knew I would 💜 it! At the bar talking about my quest n fail of trying to come here for my bday a few weeks ago, sitting next to me was the bar manager Carmen - she said she'd buy me a shot n I was like "oh cool", I never saw it so thought she was just being nice n a totally forgot n I thought 'its ok, no biggie"....then I go to pay my bill & turns out she picked up my 1st round of drinks - so extremely super sweet of her & I appreciated that n her so much. Huge THANK YOU to her & bartender Sophia for making my visit w my bff rock & an awesome experience!“

“I love all of the speakeasy establishments that this company has to offer....Alice is The Wicked Rabbit but larger. Staff is more than willing to make you feel welcome. Mixologist bartenders that are younger. Get ready to be transported into a rabbit hole of an adventure. Had my Tarrot read last week. Drinks are well made. Nice place to escape this from world for awhile.“

“I would like to get busy a thumbs up 110% went there on Valentine's Day night they texted me I came back after I was there and couldn't get in I sat next to a wonderful absolutely wonderful girl named Allie we talked for hours and give me a ride home and I just had the most wonderful time for being a Valentine's Day and not having a boyfriend I didn't need one I don't need one but I made a new friend named Allie from Beatrice and I am so pleased and happy for that and hopefully things will pan out as friendship can subside and thank you busy for everything you have done and do for me when I do come there I really appreciate it and I tried to put good reviews for you guys anything I could do for you you tell me and vice versa thank you again“

“Such a vibe inside! The drinks are well crafted and taste delicious. The food menu was hard to choose from so we went with almost one of everything and you honestly can’t go wrong with any of it. My favorite drink was Head Games. The staff was welcoming and very kind.“

“Me and the boys absolutely love this place. 10/10“

“If you are looking for a good cocktail... Come on over!! Super cute spacious comfy vibe all.. extremely knowledgeable bartender and also if you don't like your drink, they toss it away and they get your new one with no charge. I mean that's the confidence that they have here so you know you're gonna get a good drink either way!!! all the locals will also recommend this place so you know you have to try it out! Luke Luke was spectacular. He was serving the drinks. He even could tell me that my cup would get frosty and a certain spot and would be slick.. He asked me what kind of drinks I like and he knew a cocktail I would order before I even ordered it so he's a master at what he does!“

“10/10 recommend having dinner here. The atmosphere, the service, the food - all on point! Our server Ashlynn was phenomenal and made our dinner so special! The food was absolutely amazing. Everyone should save room for the Baked Alaska!“

“What a hidden gem. We’ve had the best time every time we’ve visited. The staff and food are amazing and we love sitting at the bar on Rat Pack jazz nights. Zach behind the bar is such a sweetheart and we request to sit there every time. I can’t say enough great things about the food, atmosphere and staff.“

“Love this place! Truly is cozy and laid back. An Omaha hidden gem 🤘🏾“

“Been in the VIP 1/2 dz times in past 6 mos, very nice ppl in a nice cocktail lounge. No loudmouth's, no vulgar language, mature crowd.Tonight was a fish fry comped by a customer who obviously is a great fisherman! Had such a nice time, plan to go back more often. Friendly bartenders.“

“Great bar. I popped in while walking around my hotel and the vibe was good. Pool table, big bar, tables, and booths. Ambiance is solid and people come through and it's all relaxed. Easy to chat with strangers. Drinks are great too, shouts out Trinity!“

“Great service! The bartender (from Puerto Rico) was super sweet! She was able to accommodate nonalcoholic options. She was able to make a few drinks from their menu without alcohol. And they were delicious! This one is a the pineapple/coconut flavor mocktail. I cannot remember the official name of it on the menu.“

“Love the Turf. Love the bartenders, love the owner. Love the pool table. Hate some of the regulars 😅 just kidding!!!“

“Best Bread Pudding Ever!!! OMG as a Travel Agent local to Omaha, NE I can tell you that I have enjoyed bread pudding all over the world and sea...and this is simply the most exquisite! So much so that if you mention Herbe Saint in your quote request, I will waive your booking fee! #hailherbesainte #bestbreadpuddingever #yumyum“

“My friend and I stopped in for dinner last night before a show at The Orpheum. We ordered based on our server Noah’s recommendations, and everything was incredible!! (Thanks, Noah!) Great food, friendly service, and delicious cocktails! Can’t wait to go back!!“

“Super neat cocktail lounge, atmosphere, service and drinks. Really unique place!!“

“We absolutely love coming here! Deb and Dave are wonderful people who genuinely enjoy playing pool, and their son and his friends are regulars who come to have a good time. Apparently, being a regular customer and enjoying the same hobby as your family is now considered “cheating.” 🫣

Deanna has always been friendly, professional, and fair. She handles regulars, customers, and Karens with impressive patience. It’s interesting how someone can watch other people patiently wait their turn all night, say nothing, and then suddenly discover a massive conspiracy involving Deb, Dave, their son, his friends, Deanna, quarters, and pool tables. 😭

Putting quarters down for the next game is standard pool hall etiquette. If waiting your turn feels like being “isolated,” there are always other bars with pool tables. 💗

We’ll definitely keep coming back. Maybe spend less time counting other people’s quarters and more time enjoying the night. 😊“

“Went here with a couple friends on a Friday night and had a pretty good time. The cocktail menu had a nice mix of classics and some creative drinks I hadn't seen before. Our bartender was friendly and took time to answer a few questions without making us feel rushed. The atmosphere was lively but not overly loud, which made it easy to actually have a conversation. Prices were about what I'd expect for a cocktail bar. One drink wasn't exactly my favorite, but the others were really solid. Overall, a nice spot to relax and enjoy an evening out.“

“Great place, atmosphere, bartenders and patrons“

“Threw my wife’s 40th here. Eric and staff were great. Helped with getting food truck and DJ lined up. Very accommodating with decorations and setup. Service was on point, the cocktails were solid, and communication was easy. Also being accessible for wheel chairs was a bonus.“

“Went in on a Friday evening and the place had a really nice vibe. The bartenders were friendly and took time to explain a couple of the cocktails on the menu. I tried two drinks and both were well made without being overly sweet. The music was at a good level where you could still have a conversation, which I appreciated. It did get a little busy later in the night, but service never felt rushed. Overall, it's a pretty solid cocktail bar and I'd definitely come back to try some of their seasonal drinks.“

“My husband and I were there the 23rd. Very welcoming greeting got a table immediately. The server(she) was delightful and promoted. The decor is outstanding. We loved it!“

“Always a fantastic experience! The staff here are so friendly and attentive, and the service is consistently top-notch. I love how the seasonal drink menus always bring something fresh and creative to try. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect for relaxing with friends or enjoying a night out. Truly a gem!“

“Amy is an amazing woman. She single handidly tended to 30 people at the same time and made sure that everybody was taken care of and seen. She was non stop on the go to make sure she provided excellent service, no matter the environment. I will be back. Thank you for hiring this amazing woman! And thank you Amy for your service to myself father and my myself!“

“So much fun- Every time I go in they are so friendly and always are willing to help me however I need! They are all about customer service and I would recommend this bar to all of my friends ♥️“

“Gotta give a shout out to the crew last night. This restaurant was amazing. 1st time trying it. They were so accommodating. We had a group of 16 people for graduation dinner. They worked so hard to seat us all together. They were such a friendly group. They let us all sit at the bar while we waited on our table. It was a wonderful experience dining here. We will be back.“

“We have been customers of Maplewood Lanes over 40 years. We love this place. Very clean, friendly employees, great food. You can accumulate points for free food. Would not want to go any where else.“

“Great place to go chill. So happy Bri is back! Definitely go there when she’s there! She’s always friendly and gives great customer service!“

“One of my top restaurants in Omaha! I love the atmosphere. Service is always great. The menu seems to rotate regularly to keep it interesting. Fabulous food. Wonderful cocktails. And, of course, MOMOS!! 🙌“

“This place is awesome! Great atmosphere, lovely patio, great food and drinks! Just a cool, welcoming place with a great staff!“

“We had the most fantastic experience hosting our baby shower here! The price point for the venue, bartender, and drink options were all extremely fair and made it affordable for us to have an intimate event in a beautiful space. I’m so glad I got an excuse to host an event there so I could see it, it was just absolutely stunning inside. All of the cider we tried were delicious - a lot of flavor but not too sweet. Brooklyn was the event manager who I spoke with throughout the process of booking the venue and also ended up being our bartender (who made great cocktails), busser, and got everything set up and helped us clean up after. This was the perfect event space!“

“My husband and I have been super impressed by the Dell since it reopened last year—amazing craft cocktails, solid beer options, and very elevated pub food that you can tell is made with high quality ingredients. We were last there on NYE for an early dinner and the service and food were top notch. Honestly would choose this over other $100 places, so good! They went above and beyond for us. Hope they can continue to build back up demand—as it is such an incredible atmosphere since the remodel!“

“Noah was amazing, amazing food and drinks“

“It’s a great after work stop for cheap mini pitchers of domestic beer and pool. Parking is plentiful and a great location if you live in North Omaha where there aren’t many bars. It’s a bit of a dive bar, but that’s also its charm. I attended a live music happy there recently and had a great time. They also have a pretty lively karaoke night.“

“Cute place with plenty of seating. We were able to make a reservation online and get right in with two adults and a high chair. The waitress we had was very friendly and did a great job answering any questions and explaining the menu. We had the crab rangoons, everything smoked salmon, and 3 sushi rolls…all were delicious. We both really enjoyed our drinks as well. I would return!“

“We showed up a little after midnight, so we got there a little late for the live music & the crowd had died down; there were only 5 other people there. The atmosphere and pricing seem fine, but the bartender used cranberry juice in my tequila sunrise instead of grenadine, so my drink was way funky..I probably won’t make it a point to come back.“

“Extensive whiskey and scotch menu.“

“My husband and I were recommended by our car salesman and he was Right! This place was a great experience. Everyone was nice and friendly! Even the guy at the bar was nice and talked highly of this place. We ordered the burgers and onion rings plus the most amazing ranch sauce. Absolutely love the atmosphere and 👍👍 on the best burgers! We will definitely be back!“

“cool place!!! nice atmosphere!“

“Probably the most authentic ramen spot in omaha. I ate countless shop around here most have horrible broth .“

“Josh my girl missed you tonight. We were well taken care of as always but she likes to see you as do we Lol. Masha takes good care of us as always ❤️“

“Darts, pool, drinks, cold beer but most importantly friendliest people and best staff!“

“absolutely amazing in every way possible. cocktails were delicious, pizza more than amazing, service... more than you could ask for! and the pot was just so darn cute! we will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely phenomenal food here at early bird at first I never had the time to go due to work and school but I finally was able to go in and see what’s up to which I was greeted warmly and served by Paulina who did amazing and I ate some great food so contrary to my lack of time if anyone does have some time to eat out and leave with a full happy stomach check it out sometime overall great experience and I hope to go again sometime soon.“

“The customer service…outstanding! From the host that greeted us and ushered us in, to the cocktail waitress we had the pleasure of being served by, AMAZING. I cannot recommend a better drink atmosphere.“

“Sky and Cody made my birthday feel so special. I had a personalized birthday card at my lane when we arrived! Everyone was extremely attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is beautiful which adds to photo opportunities. 10/10 can’t wait to go back!“
