Best restaraunts in Omaha? Particularly best steak house....

[GoodSteak4me]

I'll be heading there in about a month or so. Just looking to get some tips on some of the best places to eat, and where the best steak is at. I prefer the opinion of local and don't like relying on reviews online, because most people just are there to #$#$ about stuff.

Please and thanks! GBR

Good question, I went to Mahogany last year on one of my visits but wasn't impressed, but it could still be a good one for Omaha.

Brother Sebastion's is always a good choice

Thank, what would be considered a can't miss if you're visiting? Best Mexican around that area?

 

[scarletred]

Farmer Brown’s in Waterloo is the best steakhouse around and they give you generous portions and are reasonably priced..

Best Mexican would be Maria’s in Ralston which is a suburb in Omaha..

 

[elkhornthunder]

Drover, unbelievable Whiskey Filet. Not sure if they'll be back open by then due to a Fire before Christmas

Man I could not disagree more. It was about 10 years ago when we ate there and I dubbed their brown sauce butt gravy, and to this day all of us know what I'm referring to when I say butt gravy. None of us cared for it but I know it's an institution and we are in the minority. El Bee's would be my choice between the two.

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

Famous Dave's if you like BBQ, Parkers Smokehouse again if you like BBQ and don't mind a 25min drive outside of Omaha.

Maria’s has better soft taco shells by far if you like taco’s...

 

[huskernaut]

Mahogany for steak, Charleston's for chicken fried steak

 

[DudznSudz]

Brother Sebastian's and The Drover are the excellent "old timey" steakhouses in Omaha. Gorat's is not good.

Downtown has some great ones. Monarch is amazing, and the 401 Chophouse and Spencer's are good, too.

Mexican? Go to South Omaha. Maria's is NOT good. It's...unique, but not good.

What do you think is the best for a date scenario?

 

[GretnaShawn]

Mahogany, The Drover, 801 Chophouse are the big ones for steakhouses.

Farmer Brown's and Around the Bend are great if you aren't looking for a high end steakhouse feel and want more of a small town Nebraska steakhouse feel.

I have never really been impressed with El Bees food. Their margaritas on the other hand are amazing (but be warned, they'll knock you on your ass).

Take her to the 360 harrahs casino.. ask for the omaha side and you want a booth.. its pricey but very cool

Good down to the Old Market

What do you think is the best for a date scenario?

The Zoo is one of the best in the country. After go right down the street to the Old Market area for cocktails.

*801 Chophouse, Monarch, and Spencer's are flashy and neat. Also Sullivan's downtown. So, they are impressive, newer, definitely have more of a big city feel.

The Drover is not open yet, but will be soon, and Brother Sebastian's is great...they are both relics of 60's and 70's "theme" steakhouses; The Drover is western themed, Brother Sebastian's is like a monastery. It's neat, but kinda kitschy.

I'd say go downtown; the Old Market has great bars to go along with the steakhouses/restaurants down there.

Cocktails would be good at: Laka Lono (tiki bar), Wicked Rabbit ( a PDT-style speakeasy), Mercury, and a number of other great bars.

Why do you think I like the food so much!! Couple 3 of them strawberry elixirs and you could feed me Alpo and I'd love it.

Pretty sure "Wicked Rabbit" is a vibrator and you're prolly confused.

 

[Charlie Marlow]

Maria’s is not Mexican. It’s ‘Midwest-Mex’.

Best Mexican place is El Chalan across the street from South High. Bring cash

Wah wahhhhhh...

 

[GoodSteak4me]

Thanks a lot guys, you've been a huge help. We'll be there for a few days, so we are going to try and hit as many places as possible.

 

[tyrusraymondcobb]

Drover and 360. I miss Angie’s still!!!

 

[Tuco Salamanca]

Back in my younger days, we used to go to the GI Forum on 20th and N. That place was pretty authentic for a Midwest Mexican place. If it is still open, I would give it a shot.

 

[Red Steve]

801 Chop House, not sure if it is still there, but Omaha Prime was good and Flemings is a good choice.

801 is still there, Omaha Prime is gone I think. Flemings is good but its not near anything else that is great.

 

[DudznSudz]

I'm not sure why we're talking steakhouses; clearly, the best and most luxurious food available is that chosen by our Dear Leader to reward sports champions. Go get some McDonalds!

 

[vs540husker]

Can’t go wrong with Golden Corral.

 

[TravisWalker]

Taco Johns??

And Chick-Fil-A. You clearly have an agenda if you don't mention the Chick-Fil-A.

In the area of Brother Sebastians would be Rivera’s on 120th and Blondo IMO

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

...and you just know that place was included for a reason, and I love it.

 

[tro80]

Jericho's, IMO. Old school. Still feels like you are walking into the 70's when you step inside. Steaks are fantastic and price isn't bad. I'd pick Hector's for Mexican.

 

[jrhuskerdad]

Good down to the Old Market

The Zoo is one of the best in the country. After go right down the street to the Old Market area for cocktails.

I see a theme here. Go watch animals. Go eat animals. Go $#@% like animals.

[grayhairedfreak]

I've never had a bad meal at Charleston's, and their service is excellent.

 

[JohnRossEwing]

Tiny little place, might be hard to find, Sizzler, not sure if you have heard of it. They do a really nice steak and good prices. Mexican is a bit tougher but I say that for your money it will be tough to pass up a local joint called Taco Bell.

 

[tpmcg]

you'll want no part of 'keto crotch'.
i guess its a restaurant you can eat at...
