“That looks delicious ? I was in on saturday the 21st 2023 my son kept telling my mom you have to try this place so him and I did on sat. 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! I wish i could order it by the gallon. I also had the bang bang chicken sandwich The very first thing I noticed is that the sandwich looked exactly like it does in the picture...absolutely beautiful the presentation was so impressive. I have never ever been anywhere where the food comes out looking the way it is advertised. This sandwich was amazing! The fries were perfectly done and everything was hot. I cannot rave enough on how delish this meal was it is now my go to place .The service was great very friendly people I can honestly say that this is the best resteraunt I have ever been to and I cannot wait to go back“

“I found Jesus at this dive bar. Jessica served me well. (Not over served me just right, you know what I mean.) I can't say enough good about Jessica. Papalllions #1 dive bar. No religion discussed; but Jessica showed me true satisfaction.“

“We did the Star Wars trivia night and had a blast! Abby was an excellent server! Everything was great!“

“I am very familiar with Culver's and have eaten there in a few states. The food was consistent with what you'd expect at any Culvers. My only issue was, it did take quite a bit of time to get the food. I almost thought they forgot about me.

Also the ketchup dispensers were not really working all that well. It took a look of action to get some ketchup.“

“My husband and I came in for breakfast. It was our first time eating here. The staff were really nice. The food was so good. I haven't had crispy hash brown like theirs in a long time. Everything was delicious. Very affordable. Definitely will be returning!“

“Sapp Bros truck stop near I-80 and 144th street in Omaha, Ne at the Coffee Kettle Cafe with my server Kelly.

I had an enjoyable meal of a Home style cafe feel, and warm friendly service. I am loving the new ways that Sapp Bros is having restaurants nowadays!! Check out the fresh made food. I had chicken strips with Real mashed potatos, small side salad, and a slice of lemon meringue pie with sweet tea to drink.

Though next time i will be having the hand-breaded chicken friend steak with real mashed potatoes...😋 Yum!

Large enough room from 2 to 6 people at tables and booths, as well as a party room for a bit of privacy for meetings and/or get togethers, too.“

“The buffalo ribeye medium rare was crazy good. One of the top 5 steaks I’ve had anywhere. The homemade salads on the salad bar were delicious and even the mixed vegetable side was way beyond what one typically associates with mixed vegetables.

Oh and beautiful sunset views of the Platte River.“

“Great people very laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back“

“This Culver’s is what it is because of Earnestine she is the sunshine as soon as you walk in. She is kind and helpful, she jumps in to help in the dining room when busy to clear tables: Seriously, she deserves a raise. I always leave a lil more joyful because of our interaction. Thank you!“

“The wait staff is horribly slow, 10 minutes from when we were seated till a waiter showed up to greet us and get a drink order. they were too busy talking in the back. sat night 6pm and only at maybe 25% capacity so it was not busy, they had enough staff. The staff just doesn't care. I had to go to the bar repeatedly to get my coke refilled. The empty tables near us went unbussed for an hour. The waitstaff have no personality, no energy. it's depressing to go here. The foods fine, nothing memorable. it's just a waste of time. Management need to fire the waitstaff and start over. The only positive is a full glass of wine“

“Very friendly staff and AMAZINGGGGGGGG food of whatever you are craving. We ABSOLUTELY will be a regular customer!“

“Food and service have always been great!! Friendly, fast and delish!“

“excellent food & awesome gift ideas. wish you would open Cracker Barrel OLD Country Store in Kearney, Nebraska. I have to drive over an hour for your store. Thank you.“

“This place tops one of my favorite pizza places to go is there is so much to do at most of the locations, including gaming areas for the kids and a wide variety of options on their menu. The service can sometimes be a little gruff with the personnel, but by and large they are very friendly and helpful depending on how busy they are. It does get quite busy at some locations and loud with all the TVs and variety of sporting and other events on TV. But that's one of the things I love about it! Fantastic food, great pizza and other dishes!“

“Great food and amazing hambugers! The staff is great. we love to come here for lunch as a treat.“

“What a fun night out to eat at Cheddar's. We opted to belly up to the bar for their famous drink called a pain killer. It's a beautiful drink with a coconut 🥥 rim and cherries. The service from the bartenders was fantastic, so we decided to eat at the bar. The bar is fully stocked and the experienced bar tenders work their magic with their delicious cocktails served strong and tasty. The appetizers were onion rings piled high with 2 different dipping sauces. We also tried the delicious fried cheese curds. The salads were crisp and wonderful. The menu boasts many items for lots of tastes, but we chose the ribeye and chicken fried chicken . We were not disappointed. Everything came out on time, hot, fresh and filling. The presentation was nice, too. The tvs were hosting the football games and the crowd was happy. Very friendly and accommodating staff. They knew how to work as a team to handle the crowd. It was packed but enjoyable. We had leftovers.“

The other manager, bartender, also came to our table and his margarita was soooo good, his own recipe he said. We were celebrating 3 birthdays, the brownie sundae was excellent. I would recommend this restaurant with good prices! THANKS!“

“Place is amazing. You gotta try the apricot and jalapeño jam. Food was amazing. Our waitress was great can't complain about her at all. I asked the manager if he knew about another tap house in Omaha he said yes. I told him your burgers are better that theirs. He said thank you. 5 five tap house.“

“If you’re looking for a family friendly Sunday brunch spot in West Omaha this is it! There’s a wide variety of yummy menu items or you can pick from a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes on the brunch buffet. The omelet station is where it’s at! Their chorizo will not disappoint. Most importantly the experience from the moment you step in the door is unlike most restaurants. The staff treats you like family and goes above and beyond! They even have a magician/balloon artist that stops by to entertain. To top it all off having an arcade and movie theatre all in one. For those on a budget it’s very inexpensive for what you get and they have a Loyalty program to save on your next visit. My girls and I look forward to our Sunday funday coming to this magical gem after church!“

“I miss the 1/2 price 1/2 pound burgers on Mondays but everything is always delicious! I’ve been going there for 34 years!“

“Lighthouse has some of the best food I've ever had at a bar & grill. The El Diablo pizza is by far my favorite item on the menu although over the numerous times me and my friends have come here we have yet to find anything that wasn't positively delicious. The servers are all friendly and care about making sure you have a good time and experience while you're here and the atmosphere, at least around dinner and lunch time is always lively and great. I can't recommend them enough!“

“Hosted a surprise birthday party for my parents here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The atmosphere was great, there was plenty of parking, and the food was good. But the real stars were the staff—so friendly, attentive, and truly went above and beyond. The bartenders and waitstaff made everything run smoothly and made us feel completely taken care of. Highly recommend for any event!“

“I Went To Finnegan's To Watch History Being Made ... The Crawford VS Canelo Fight. There Were About 20 Patrons There. Everyone Was Friendly. Great Social Atmosphere. The Staff Was My Favorite Part. Very Attentive And Oh So Hilarious. The Establishment Was Very Clean And Well Organized. I Rated The Food 4 Stars Cause All I Had Was Chips And Salsa. Left A Lot To Be Desired, But Chips And Salsa Was Not Their Specialty. Now The Other Patrons Were Raving About The Wings, Which I Will Try When I Visit Again. I Just Randomly Stopped In On A Whim And Was Pleasantly Surprised At How Much Fun I Had. I Would Definitely Recom.end Finnegan's If You're Looking For A Cozy, Warm And Friendly Atmosphere!“
