I don't know about you, but when I go to a gas station, I expect to get pickled mushrooms, Eastern…read moreEuropean delicacies, and Russian beer. What... Is it just me? If you never went in, you'd never think it was anything more than a gas station. Beer at gas stations isn't anything new. But, beer that you could only get at a specialty market? That's pretty cool. Conversely, if you weren't paying attention and you missed the gas pumps, it looks like a specialty market, with a wide selection of things you could never think of buying. Pickled mushrooms? Interesting. Five different kinds of pickled mushrooms? Wow. It IS a specialty market, with a wide selection of things you could never think of buying. Why are there gourmet cookies with a label I can't read? I don't know, but they look delicious. Why is there kratom at the gas station? No idea, but it's pretty cool. Oh...and the gas prices are reasonable, and there is plenty of distancing going on here. I wish I lived here. No, not at the gas station/specialty shop, although that is an idea.

This may seem like a super random and weird place to review, but it needs doing. We were driving by…read morethis gas station and saw "gyros" on the sign. What? What the heck is a gas station doing selling gyros? Obviously we needed to try it, or at the very least look at it. Upon entering the store and looking to the left, there's an entire section for Russian food. We were befuddled, as there's no signage advertising eastern European groceries outside at all. What's more, the entire wall is eastern European food. Seems like an oversight not to advertise, so I felt I had to post. There's freezers full of pierogies, ice creams, cakes, sausages, caviar, and more. There's entire food stands full of Russian chocolates, tea cookies, and desserts. On top of that, they have made to order gyros and Philly cheese steaks. Got the gyro with fries for $6.49 and was astounded by how good it was. The pita was nice and soft, and the meat was plentiful and seasoned well. The veggies and sauce weren't my favorite, but I can overlook those. Turns out the owner of this place also owns the gyro shop in The Food Court on 42nd St, and they know what they are doing. I'll be coming back, but may bring my own homemade sauce. You definitely need to check this place out. Plus, think how hilarious it will be to tell someone you are taking them out to gyros, only to pull up to a gas station.

I've been back for a few wine tastings here & we really enjoyed our last sit down wine tasting on…read more9/26/25. They had wine from Napa Valley, France, Italy: reds & whites. It was a lovely experience, learning about where the wines came from, their history & the tastings paired well with a charcuterie board! You really have to buy tickets as soon as you can because seating is limited. They also have free pop-up tastings if you are on their mailing list! It really is a lovely place, you feel comfortable, and the ladies know what they talking about. They're helpful finding what you were looking for.

Went here for a wine tasting in the evening and had such a great time! We sampled six different…read morewines while enjoying charcuterie and company. There appears to be a loose theme for tastings as this one mostly revolved around Spanish region wines. The only improvement I would suggest is new glasses with each wine. Or the ability to rinse out the glass. Thought it was a bit odd they just sampled the next wine on top of the last wine in the same glass - not the biggest deal but that would never fly in Napa. Those leading the tasting were passionate, interactive and knowledgeable. I've attended quite a few wine tastings in the past and I still walked away with gained knowledge. The set up is charming and makes you forget you're in a wine shop. The featured wines were available for purchase and no matter what you like, you will find it here!

Bonus - they allow food from Blue or Salween Thai to be brought in and enjoyed with a glass of wine. We came in on a Monday afternoon, it was very quiet, but we enjoyed the time. They had a number of glasses of wine on happy hour, including Prisoner and I was impressed!

I like the atmosphere and they had a great selection, but our wine flights were brought to us in…read morethe wrong order with no labeling of which glass was which. I'd recommend using some sort of labeling system (erasable marker on the glass or paper labels) They need to be labeled *somehow* instantly after they are poured so people know for sure which wine is which and the employee isn't confused. There were multiple customers and I understand it can be confusing to remember which wine is which (especially when they are all red) so labels are 100% necessary and appreciated

The owner does an excellent job selling the grapes. She hand sells the inventory. She said she has…read moretasted *all* the wines in the shop. Even if not completely true, still an impressive claim. The former owner introduced her to the Napa winemakers. She knows them now. John, the former owner, got me a reservation to The French Laundry back in the last century and before it was famous. I really like the Napa map on the wall. Helpful. If you want a special wine or something that you can't get elsewhere, this is the place. But I pulled one over on her; much to my surprise. She didn't know that the Staglin Family Vineyard was a location in "The Parent Trap." Staglin is a beautiful property with some impressive art work. I didn't think Staglin wines were sold in Omaha. Next time in, I will get a bottle of The Special Reserve from Parker Knoll.

Derek pretty much nailed the atmosphere of the place, as well as John. I would encourage people to…read moretake advantage of John, as he certainly knows his stuff. OWC focuses on California wines, and they have probably 2-3 times the number of CA (as well as russian river valley, etc.) wines as those from overseas. However, I disagree that OWC is always more expensive. I have found several wines there at lower prices than I was able to buy direct from the winery when in Napa. Further, while the stock there tends toward the $25-60 dollar range, every time I have been there I have picked up a couple $15 "everyday" wines that have been really good. This place is easily the best wine store in the Metro.

Well I was embarrassingly surprised at the quality of bourbons that they had behind the counter. Let's face it, If you're looking for anything Buffaloe Trace, or Heaven Hill etc... They have it! You may ask then why the low rating score?... Well, If you're into paying 200% and upwards over msrp for a bottle of liquor, then this is the place for you. I am not sure how this place survives with competing grocers and other well established sprit shops within 15-20 minutes of each other that carry the same brands. In some instances you may have to enter a raffle for the Wellers, Pappy's etc. But you would never pay 200% over msrp, which let's be honest - this is probably the worst price gouging in the state! Before someone states "that's business 101" I understand that they are in business to make a buck! But charging over $300 for a $35-50 bottle of bourbon? This is some type of slum-lord ownership that I personally would not mind seeing close its doors - which probaby will not happen bc everyone needs their hooch!

They have tons of different types of fish (obviously), as well a lot of accouterment to pair with the fish, like breads, deli salads, spices and sauces, and liquors that pair well with certain fish. There are attendants behind the deli counter, if you have any questions or want recommendations. Is it the cheapest option for fish purchasing that you can get? Absolutely not, but it's one of the freshest and highest quality l have seen. It definitely has to be a once in a while thing, due to the cost, but if you're wanting to make a nice seafood meal at home, then shopping at Absolutely Fresh would be one of the top choices to check out.

GREAT pizza (meat lovers is my fav) burgers (Try the Roethlisberger) and wings. The owner Renee is super friendly and attentive, often tending the bar herself. Solid selection of liquor at the bar which is a nice place to sit. Plenty of TVs. The restaurant/bar is set in an L-shaped configuration with low and high-top tables spread out so you don't feel on top of each other but retains a cozy feel. For football fans, there are autographed jerseys of Pittsburgh Steeler greats, but Renee will put on whatever event you want to watch. Highly recommended.
