“Thanks for a great lunch!! I look forward to seeing y’all again.“

“We stopped in here with a party bus and they did and amazing job serving us all! The two guys they had play outside on the patio was seriously awesome! Their food looks so yummy and they are served out of cute "dog bowls" but didn't get the chance to eat there but we will be returning!“

“We live close to Omaha tap house pepperwood and love love love their food and their service is top notch!!! As with any restaurant sometimes you’ll get something that isn’t quite right and they always seem to take care of their customers 5/5 stars! One of my favorite places in town to eat and the best burgers and wings around! Thank you again for being part of our community!!!“

“Top notch drinks and staff. Highly recommend the espresso martinis and excellent selection of whiskeys and bourbons. Order a pizza!“

“Extensive whiskey and scotch menu.“

“Great hangout! Friendly staff, quiet clean atmosphere!“

“We have eaten here quite a few times. Every single time the burger and wings are 10 out of 10 stars. The service is great and they are very fast. We love looking at the memorabilia and the outside has cornhole. Last night my teenage son went in to get a carryout order and his debit card kept getting declined. He came back with the food and some great stories about talking to the wonderful staff and customers. I love J dubs for the great food the staff the ambience and generosity.“

“Stopped in for a drink on the way back from Lincoln, suggested by a friend. Nice little place, good friendly service. Local patrons were friendly as well actually. I think they have a limited menu, I gave five stars but didn't actually have any food.

Have a pool table, darts. Playing Sunday football games. If in the area will go back.“

“The Q is the best bar in town! Great bartenders! Awesome people! So much fun!����“

“Good food , cold beer and friendly staff Recommended to us by Hitched Up Trailers“

“Stopped into Eclipse on a Saturday. Friendly staff - Ashley & Britney were great, hard working & definitely entertaining! A cozy spot to relax for drinks with friends & had good music variety playing. Also a small patio seating area & plenty of TVs for sports. Will be back!“

“Great prime rib and excellent service“

“This is a great bar. The TVs are huge and the huskers were on. That’s always a win. Liked the friendly bartender and the fast service and good drink prices. But what I especially liked was that the whole bar - including the bathroom- smelled nice. Like, not cheap air freshener, but actually nice fragrance. It did not smell like a typical dive bar. It’s the little things.“

“This place was the best! Patience is a virtue with this place! They have such incredible drinks! When I walked in I felt like it was a place in which these bartenders cared about the drinks they put out. They might take more time, but they sure as hell make the drink accordingly. They have games above the photobooth. Uno, scategories (idk how to spell it), incoherent, phase 10, cards, and etc. If you want this place to be Parliment, it will never be. This place is classy, girlie, and exactly the place I would like to debrief and gossip with the girls weekly. Also, prosecco on tap...how convientnet hehe“

“Excellent service, great food! Would 100% recommend.“

“Sooooo goood!!! Always delicious 😋“

“We saw a review shared on a best eats on Facebook in Omaha and had to check this place out. It was incredible. The food was delicious and the prices were great. We could tell the quality was there and it didn't disappoint. We can't wait to go back and try more again in our next visit.“

“Started coming here about 6mo ago after moving to the area. It has quickly become our regular spot. The team running the place is great, making everyone feel welcome.

They have a broad selection of liquors, beers, and seltzer to choose from. Drinks are made well and priced right.

Multiple dart boards and pool tables to choose from along with beer pong and bar games as well.

Always a good time here at Obar.“

“I have a severe food allergy and they did an amazing job of looking at the menu and letting me Know what was safe to eat.

It was a great taste, full of flavor and our service was personalized and did not make me feel like I was a bother.

We will be back. 😊“

“Always prompt and friendly service. Nice menu variety. Good food! Comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere. Nightly specials are great. A++++“

“Love this place. Great atmosphere, wonderful people. Our bartender Heather is awsome. Definitely a place to try. Glad I did....“

“Hosted a bridal shower there. Natalie was wonderful to work with. The food was very good, and the event room was the perfect size. An overall great experience!“

“Great place to hang out good food, and great bartenders!“

“We were there for a celebration of life. The staff was very accommodating to the very large crowd that arrived after funeral services. We orded the appetizer platter & it was delicious! Can't say enough good things about Outer Limits!“

“Talk about impeccable service dedication to a customer and sincere concern and care that’s what happened to me tonight with Blue Sushi. I was not able to get my food delivered and they completely turned it around 360. They actually WOW 🤩 brought my food to me after I could not get it delivered! I have been a loyal customer to Blue sushi for years and now I will never turn back 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾💞 Thank Youuuuuuu!!!“

“Wonderful prime rib special on Thursday night. Very delicious; melt in your mouth. The desserts are also amazing.“

“I had an event hosted there and the service was incredible, the owner took care of everything I needed and went above and beyond. There were many people coming and going all night and the staff was extremely tentative to our needs. Not to mention they were extremely easy to work with on the setup or the event. Thank you so much for making my night stress free and easy!!“

“Our waitress was very attentive! Vodka basil gimlet for the win 🌿“

“We reserved Jack’s party room for an after-work office social. Great room, food selections were wonderful and server was GREAT!! (Paige). Would absolutely recommend for any party/social for a group!!“

“Quick shoutout to Daisy C., the assistant manager at the funny bone!! She made our experience amazing!! She went above and beyond to make sure we came in with a smile and left with an even bigger one. Top tier customer service, if I could give 10/10 stars, I would do it.“

“5 stars for no other reason than they don’t “surcharge” their customers for paying via CC. They have transparent menu pricing, and if you want to pay with cash they will give you a 4% discount. This is how it should be done. Kudos to you, Hectors!“

“First time attending. Cassie was great! Ordered drinks, and they were perfect! Exactly what we ordered. They tasted fantastic! Mandy is a great bartender! The food was almost exactly what we ordered and served very efficiently. The burger was a little overcooked. Great music, and not too loud. The atmosphere was great! The chairs were comfortable as well. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back!“

“Kim, or "momma Kim" as she is affectionately known by fellow workers and long-time patrons, was our server tonight and could not have been more amazing. She was so kind, patient, and remembered every little request we had -- from how we were splitting the bill to the sides of sauce we ordered. Honestly, she made our night! My extended family is in town because my grandmother is in hospice so we are all sad and overwhelmed, and we also had two rowdy kids we were trying to contain, and she made us feel so at home and was so warm to us. We loved our food, and would come back for that in itself, but because of Kim and the friendly ambiance (all the other patrons were awesome too!) -- we will come back even sooner!“

“Delicious food from a local bar. Didn’t have the best staffing, only 1 waitress servicing the entire spot, but she was working hard and the food was worth the wait. The cauliflower and wings were our favorites. The chicken strips were huge! The chicken sandwich was also huge!“
