Music & Vibe was on point & made my 90’s loving heart so happy! Street tacos were good & the strawberry margarita was perfectly made.
The highlight of our experience was our server Kalyn, who had amazing energy, response time, & will keep customers coming back!

Street tacos were amazing!! Onion rings…. Amazing! Everything gf! I had not had onion rings in 2years. Our waitress was a total delight and very helpful. I can’t wait to go back.
Large dining area with wall to wall TV's. Pleasant server. Game day menu apparently a bit pared down from regular menu. We were excited to see Chicago dogs on the menu. However, a bit disappointed with the less than fresh poppy seed bun. It tended to break apart while eating it. I chose street corn as my side, but it was also disappointing. It was served cold like a salad. Ingredients were stacked in the bowl apparently just prior to serving and with the absence of heat the flavors had no chance to meld. I was getting bites of canned corn, bites of mayo, bites of cotija. My partner had a grilled peach and pineapple chicken sandwich. While the flavors were good, the sandwich was served on a standard sized hamburger bun and the chicken fillet was smaller than the bun. At $17, we were very underwhelmed.
Overall it was ok. I feel like the main dinner item on the menu was chicken Parm and it was unique. The breading wasn't common, maybe purposefully gluten free flour so the texture was different. The noodles were good and sause was pretty spicy for a chicken Parm. Menu said cheese curds which apparently just means melted mozzarella on top. It wasn't easy to eat in a bowl either. Wife orders gluten free burgers regularly and loves them along with their fries.

Game day menu is too small and still took a long time to receive the food.

First of all, I had read all the reviews on line and was amazed at the customer service that was given by the owner to each person who commented! He even looked up a receipt of a person who had a less than positive experience on their first visit. That is a business that I want to support! I did give an overall rating of 5. Having worked in the restaurant business in the Stone Age, I know it takes awhile to get everyone working together like a well oiled machine. Having only been open for two months, I know that this is the time of really figuring out what works and what doesn’t work. I will start with the great: our waitress was great! She was attentive but NOT annoying. I wish I had gotten her name…she had long brown hair, the cutest nails with little bows on them, and was as bubbly as could be. She didn’t mind answering a bazillion questions—-and she didn’t mind running back to the kitchen to ask when she didn’t know. I was with two friends and we all enjoyed the variety of the menu and the price point. One of my party got the chicken Alfredo and loved it, one got the rice bowl and said it was good but was surprised that the rice was crunchy. At first she thought it was overdone but then thought maybe it was crispy rice. She said she would order it again though. I had the hand breaded wings….4 meaty, white meat tenders in a light coating which I assume was a gf coating as that is something that sets this restaurant apart from others. I am not gluten intolerant but have friends who are and I am sure would appreciate having this option! The bacon jam that came with my chicken tenders was THE BEST I have ever had. Wish they could bottle that up and sell it! Now for the two areas that are if mention…I do think my chicken tenders were overcooked because the coating was very dark and the chicken was just a TINY bit dry. However, I am wondering it it is because the coating on the tenders is GF and tends to be darker? The second thing to be aware of is the fact that it is pretty noisy as the ceilings are high and there is a lot of concrete so the noise is not muffled at all. One other reviewer mentioned that the servers/staff were having a good time. I didn’t know what they meant but I am assuming it was similar to what we experienced. There were 3 women at the bar, 2 workers and one patron (I think…because they were eating) and they were talking loudly back and forth as they were on opposite sides of the bar. There voices really carried!! It is a sports bar/restaurant so we weren’t annoyed however, I do think if I had been sitting at the bar, I would have moved😊 Someone posted that the booths were uncomfortable or far from the table. The 3 of us are all of varying sizes and heights and we felt the booths were very comfy and we were there for 4 hours! One last thing that would make us VERY happy is if you could find a way to make half orders of the onion rings…they looked divine but I didn’t order because there is no way I could have eaten an entire basket. I would have paid 6.00 for a half instead of 9 or 10 for a whole so I think you would still make money on the half basket! Also, we weren’t into sports but if we were, I would definitely go there to watch games…the TV’s are well placed, cool little outdoor patio area, etc. I really really hope this restaurant makes it because it is a great location for getting together for people who live in different areas of west Omaha. We will be back for that half order of rings..hint hint!

All good things! The menu has so many amazing gluten free options with a dedicated fryer and knowledgeable staff. And I'm not just talking french fries, I'm talking fried pickles, cheese curds, chicken tenders... All Gluten-Free. Went with a friend one time that absolutely hates Gluten-Free stuff, and even he was impressed with this and couldn't tell the difference. Been there multiple times to sit in and eat as well as to go. Every time it's great.
