We have been coming here for years. Lately the quality of the food seems to be declining. Three meals last night and they were marginal at best. Our waitress was very nice but she had too many tables.
Well when I looked at their website I was under the impression that they served brunch every day which was not the case. We specifically went there for brunch. The waitress was very good! The bisque was great! The railcar salad was not what I expected- included cilantro and raw onion, neither of which were listed under the explanation on the menu. Because I don't like either one, I didn't eat the salad.

Serice this night was off. We love Railcar, but this was disappointing. Tables that sat after us received their drinks and appetizers before we even placed our order. Serve seemed distracted. Overall, not in a hurry to return to Railcar, hoping it was just an off night. Never had a Dirty Martini in a short glass before, again not the norm for them.

Came in for solo brunch on a Saturday. It was well-attended but there's plenty of space and plenty of parking. Since I was alone, I opted to sit at the bar, and I'm glad I did because I got incredibly efficient and friendly service from the bartender, Mariah (hope I'm remembering that correctly), who was working their ass off but didn't let it show. I won't mince words- this barbacoa shakshuka was one of the top ten breakfasts I've ever eaten in my life. Just absolutely perfect. I was also perhaps more tickled than I should have been about the little LEDs embedded in the concrete bar top but it's such a fun touch that I've told that detail to about half a dozen people so far. Just one note to the ownership- consider adding a footrest under the bar for the height-disadvantaged like myself, my feet couldn't reach the braces on my bar chair and I felt very silly as I wobbled.
The jambalaya this time was horrible. The shrimp were not peeled . There was no duck as advertised. It was tomato soup over white rice. I've had it here previously and it was great but this was awful

My hubby and I stopped here because we were hungry and looking for a quick dinner nearby. Jessica was our server and she was AMAZING. We had the pretzel appetizer with the beer cheese and I am so sad that they look it off the menu because it was the best thing ever. Next time we came here we brought our friends and had the goat cheese, AMAZING. Helen our server was an absolute gem. Her smile made me feel welcome and she was on top of it. Love it here and always a treat to come in.

A must visit restaurant in Omaha, especially for brunch! They have bottomless brunch cocktails and the best cheese curds I’ve ever had!
I ordered the chicken goat with bacon jam sandwich which I thought would be divine, it wasn't. It was dry and tasteless. Our waitress was very informative and popped with personality. Sorry, won't be going back.

I was in Omaha for business and went to this restaurant with a friend who lives there. Definitely don’t judge the book by its cover… While the outside is unassuming, the inside has a great atmosphere. What was also greatwas the food and service. The pork chop that I had was the best one I’ve ever had in my life. The French onion soup was easily in the top three as well. We also had a Thai chicken flatbread as an appetizer, and it was very good. I wish we had one of these locally!

This place doesn’t get near the recognition it should. Great food!!
Absolutely delicious! We stopped in for a Saturday breakfast before heading to our home in Ohio. Ambiance was good, service quick and efficient - the restaurant sports train theme decor. My husband ordered the salmon hash which came in a bowl - he loved it! Our son ordered the chilaquilles and they were delish too! I ordered one each, a buttermilk and a lemon ricotta pancake - these were not a standard big, dry fluffy pancake, but a lacy (Swedish) style. The lemon ricotta came topped with berry compote - both were soooo good, I would recommend ordering 2 of each! We will def be back!

Food and service were superb. Great atmosphere for a neighborhood style restaurant. They source locally ensuring fresh and healthy items. Would recommend if you are in the area, we will be back soon.
