“This is one of the best fine dining spots in Omaha! Craig was amazing and my boyfriend and I to each and every dish. We started with a bottle of champs, then some fresh yellowtail, followed with a beet salad which had a slight Smokey flavor, OF COURSE the vodka pasta was a must, and finished with filet mignon. Everything was beyond from the atmosphere to the food! We will definitely be visiting again and bringing our friends and family with!!“

I am a big soup snob I love soup it's one of my favorite things to eat. I got the beef brisket tex mex soup and I WAS BLOWN AWAY! This was the best soup I have ever had!

“Just a quick note to highlight our great dining experience. Last night, we had the pleasure of celebrating my father-in-laws birthday (around 530PM) at Charleston's Restaurant near Boys Town. Just want to brag on our server, Tommy for a bit. His energy, enthusiasm, friendliness, humor, and service was second to none. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious, too.“

“We were going to Jim’s rib haven and they were closed so on our way back we saw this place and stopped in. Amazing food, amazing service. We will back!!“

“Great food and atmosphere but needs work on handling large crowds for events. Tonight my fiance and I had a wild experience lol. Arrived knowing we would wait, was quoted 30 min to 1 hour. Agreed and took a seat at the bar for drinks, table was available within the 30 min time frame which was great. Was seated and didn’t see a server for 35 minutes, we expected a wait and wasn’t too bothered at this point over it. Once the server came over to us he said he thought we were being taken care of already since I had a drink from the bar. We brushed it off and placed our drinks and food order at that time. My food came out within 5 minutes and we were pretty stunned with how quick that came considering how packed it was. Now, after 10 min of him not getting his order and we also didn’t have our drinks we looked around to find someone to ask. I called out to the server and the manager several times, but didn’t succeed in grabbing their attention and fiance didn’t want me to get up and find someone. 40 minutes after my food arrived the server came up to us and I asked about his food and our drinks. I said well just take our bill and a to go box for mine. He did bring out my fiancés order and removed it from the bill. We understand it’s not entirely the servers fault but overall we were pretty bummed since we do enjoy this spot for the atmosphere and the food has always been good. A few other tables also were saying they had similar experiences tonight and also just wanted their bills as well.“

“My husband and myself along with our three young kids just visited for lunch. A waitress saw my kids getting a little un easy and wanting to get up out of their seats and she came over with 3 paw patrol stuffed animals for all of them to keep them occupied. It literally made their day and I was so taken aback by the thoughtfulness. Other than that the facility was clean and food and service was amazing. Excited this is right down the street from us and can’t wait to return.“

“Shoutout to the entire staff at Stella’s today! I called right at 10am to place a pretty large pick up order for our office. The lady that helped me was absolutely AMAZING (sorry I didn’t catch your name)! She confirmed with kitchen staff that they could have it ready by 11:15am and I tell you they had it ready to go and perfect!!! One of you were even sweet enough to leave a note for one of our staff on her bag ❤️ You all went above and beyond for us where most would have been overly annoyed and we appreciate it so very much! #supportsmallbusinesses“

“Amazing Food and such great service!!!“

“I’ve just recently moved to the Omaha area and have been exploring all of the food spots. Dynamite was recommended by a friend, so I took my daughter here for a special evening. Every single part about this place was thoughtful. The staff, the decor, most importantly, the food. It was an experience for us for sure. The chef was engaging and the food he brought us was incredible. Different levels of flavor and much appreciated on a cold day. The two working the grill cooked the best steak I’ve ever had, which is something to me. The individual waiting on our table was amazing as well. Very seriously, everything was perfection for us, so thank you.“

“One of the best meals we have had! And so clean! I cannot stop talking about the salad, beef filet-veggies. The presentation. All of it.“

“Fast, friendly, clean, and GOOD!! 10/10!“

“Located just off downtown Omaha, this restaurant is nice and clean with outdoor seating available. They also have a rooftop bar area. The staff was very helpful and the food came promptly and hot.

“Went to lunch with my family and some friends on a Sunday afternoon. Manager was quick to accommodate our group as there were only smaller tables available at the time. He and his staff were very friendly with us, the food was great, and I would recommend this place to anyone. It's great to have a place with Keno that is stylish, comfortable atmosphere (for all members of the family) with a very friendly staff to visit on a regular basis. We will be regulars here soon.“

“Amazing steaks, seafood, and service!“

“I've been in probably way too many times over the past month or so in an attempt to try everything on the menu. Besides one dish that I won't order out of personal preference, everything has been amazing. Definitely need to swing by for happy hour to try a few things not on the regular menu.“

Excellent service, Thank You Cassy and the cook for a great experience and excellent food!!Go check out the Apple Barrel Scratch Cooking in Sapp Brothers ❤️❤️❤️“

“Delicious food and friendly service! Good happy hour specials. The poblano slaw was the perfect complement to the skyscraper veggie sandwich. Everything had excellent flavor. Would visit again.“

“This place has been great every time we've gone through either drive thru or dine in. The staff are very respectful and polite and patient(with kiddos) when they are having some fun inside. The food has always been hot and fresh, and I think we all know the root beer is some of the best.
Thanks for reading!

Kid-friendliness: There is no play area designated for kiddos, but the atmosphere is comfortable enough to have your kids "play" at the table, and the staff have great patience for it.“

“This is the best thing Omaha has going in food. The owner levels the playing field for all food businesses in Omaha to have a chance to grow. Pay is in line with output. Every ethnicity of food an taste is able to utilize this space and thrive. Kudos Omahas lunches are better because Dandelion is here.“

“Went in for frozen custard. There was a pretty decent line because it was around 6 or 7. It was pretty noisy, but that's par for the course for fast food. Got through the line pretty quick and ordered. I wish they had more flavors of the day, but beggars can't be choosers. Sat down, tables were clean. Custard came out in a timely manner. Pretty decent experience.

Parking: Culver's gets busy at times. Parking can get a little tight. There was plenty of room when we went.“

“July 19. 8 adults and 2 tween girls. 10am ish. Did breakfast items. Lived up to previous reviews! Handled our unexpected largish group. Servings were more than “enough” and satisfying. Will be returning and trying more on the menu!“

“Had the breakfast at Omaha Marriott Regency's Heartwood Restaurant and it was wonderful. Just the right amount of selections, friendly staff watchful of re-filling the selections, and warm attention at our table. Make sure to make this part of your stay at this excellent hotel. Particular thanks to Esty and Maria.“

“Bre was very patient, kind and helpful with us. She heard our grandson repeat crackers when she was talking to another person at the table who need crackers for their crab legs and when she brought those she also brought our grandson some crackers to eat. It was very sweet of her.

Parking: Plenty of parking

Kid-friendliness: Our waitress Bre was very helpful by bringing a bowl of cherries for our grandson. She spent time talking to him. She did a great job.“
