The place is interesting and its not entirely clear where the entrance is. Once you find it alongside 22nd St, you go into an entryway and then down a few stairs, passed a trophy case and into the basement bar. It definitely has the feel of being someone's basement because it is. Above the bar sits a house. The place is old and you can tell once you enter it but it's still kind of cool with its dim setting, christmas lights, creepy doll heads and pool table. The wallpaper across from the bar was like an 1890's Parisian style. The tap beer selection was limited to two options from what I could tell. One was Budweiser or something similar and the other was Boulevard Wheat. They also had a full bar so I imagine the bartender, Frank, can make just about whatever you wanted. Speaking about Frank, he's one of the friendliest bartenders I've ever encountered. I learned that he's been there 40 years. I suspect this place used to be a lot busier but on this evening, we were the only one's for a while. Maybe the closure of Malara's across the street hurt their business as I'm sure the prevalance of new bars downtown and midtown. I really hope this place can return to its former glory because its such a unique place in Omaha. In some ways it reminds of Homy Inn. Definitely pay it a visit and have a chat with Frank.

Tight space, but that's part of the charm. The champagne on tap was excellent, and the vibe was relaxed and fun.

Would definitely go back.

My husband and I ended an early evening here mostly for the nostalgia since it had been over four years either one of us had been there. We sat the bar and were helped immediately. I got the sangria on top and honestly it kind of slapped. It was a generous pour, sweet, refreshing. No notes, will be back. Of note and as an fyi - they prefer cash but will accept card (there is a card charge) and you have to tip before the card is run.

I just so happened to see a post on OFL about their upcoming special for roast pork, dumplings, and…read moresauerkraut and made an impulsive decision to have lunch here. Back story...I'm Vietnamese but I have come to LOVE this Czech dish due to my husband's family making it one a year on Thanksgiving instead of the normal line up. I could probably eat this every day...ehh, maybe once a week. And because it's such a niche dish and not commonly available, I will seek it out if it turns up. Such was the case here. I've never heard of Donohue's prior to this nor am I entirely familiar with all the great places in South Omaha. The building was unassuming and a bit darker lit, but you could tell it was a place where "regulars" hang- as evidenced by the waitress asking us if we needed menus (we did). The plate came within 5 minutes of ordering and it took about the same amount of time for me to devour it. The dumplings were delicious and the pork was some of the most tender, flavorful I have ever had. I think the gravy could have use a tad more salt (and I never add extra salt to anything) and I would've like the sauerkraut to be a bit more tart, but I understand that's a personal preference. The price was fair- I think maybe $11.99?, but I wouldn't have minded paying a little more to get a little more. Excited to come back next month when they have this special again!
