About the restaurant
Blue Sushi Sake Grill unites creative ingredients with energetic vibes, premium cold sake with happy moments to give you a fresh and fun new way to experience sushi. Our sushi and grill menus allow you to explore your sushi favorites in new and unexpected ways. We like to say that sushi is for sharing, and our menu encourages it. Order a spread of all your maki, nigiri and sashimi favs from the sushi bar, and throw in a few orders of starters from the grill. We'll stagger your plates so you can savor it all bite-by-bite, and maximize the sushi experience you've been craving all week. If you're not sure where to start, tour the menu during Happy Hour, where all our guest favorites — from our sushi, grill and drink menus — are available at an amazing value. We offer Happy Hour every day of the week at Blue Sushi Sake Grill!

About the restaurant
Time to ditch the ordinary and level up your night. Our duckpin bowling lanes are for those who know how to mix a little play with their cocktails. Sip on our signature drinks, show off your skills (or at least your style), and let the good times roll. Whether it’s date night, squad goals, or just a reason to strut your stuff—reserve your lane now before someone cooler does.

The ambiance is great and I love that we can have a conversation and hear each other. The food was good, the Brussels could have been a little more crispy and not as mushy.. They were also out of all Desserts. The service was good. We had a wait a bit for our reservation, so they brought us each a glass of Prosecco. And wanted everything to be done right. We would go back

Screamers is simply incredible! My wife and I had a "date night" dinner at Screamers last evening. It was our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last. Screamers is a perfect example of how a restaurant can be successful when the owner is fully invested in making it a success. As its owner/entertainer/waiter/"chief cook and bottle washer", Kevin Witcher has given Lincoln a truly unique and enjoyable dining experience. If you haven't already done so, join the fun and give Screamers a try. Be prepared for a great evening!

We come every Friday before Husker games to listen to the Cornhusker Marching Band-Zipline Pep Band play, drink a Dear Old Nebraska beer (in a souvenir Husker glass) and celebrate with family, friends and CMB. Our favorite appetizers include the brussel spouts, egg rolls and charcuterie. My favorite entree is the cedar planked salmon, I'm usually too full for desert. Great food and great atmosphere
