creative menu centered around meatballs. It sounds weird, but, it's really good. They have a vegan meatball that I really like.

Good menu, creative burgers/sandwiches. Their "queso awesome" is pretty awesome. I like their veggie patty too-- they make it in-house (nothing bugs me more than a restaurant serving a boca burger! ;)

possibly best bartenders in Omaha- they know their stuff, and take their craft seriously. Upscale renditions of "bar food" but definitely a laid back scene. They have a projector screen that they often play vintage movies on.
