    It was a large group from work. We got a reservation for 8 on short notice. The place looked amazing online for ambience and did not disappoint. To be fair it was after dark when we got the and the initial curb impression was a 60s strip mall. But inside it really delivered. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food hot and the drinks cold. The pretzel crusted Cheese curds and the stake frites were the don’t miss appetizers. Everyone enjoyed the food from the Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf, to the chef’s special steak to the Shrimp Diablo. It was an amazing, fun, experience. Would definitely go back again and again.

    The four course date menu or the chef’s 7 course tasting menu are our favorites! Tonight the Korean chicken starter had great flavor with the right amount of heat! The butternut squash soup with homemade roasted marshmallow was our next selections. Terrific! I chose the scallops for my main course while my spouse had the linguini with clams. The pumpkin crème brule dessert and coconut sorbet were a nice ending to our meal! Our friends had a beautifully plated and delicious beet salads and rack of lamb with mango sorbet. We had a relaxing 2 hour dinner with great service and time with Chef Anthony! Our favorite chef-owned restaurant in Omaha!
