Anthem - DJ JAK_E doing her thang - American Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

We had brunch with the family here on Father's Day, our server was top notch and the food did not disappoint. We have two little kids and we had no issues, they have a kids menu and our server was on top of their drinks even. I personally loved their orange spritz, and the appetizers and main entrees at our table were all fantastic. The portions are hearty so don't do what we did and order too many appetizers so you're too full to enjoy the actual meal lol. It wasn't too loud or too crowded and the place was busy but our wait times for food and the check were minimal. The dj kept the mood light and enjoyable, I'd definitely recommend this place to a friend! read more

Anthem is so fun! The Food. The Music. The Vibes. Love the late night happy hour and DJ set! Had the queso, popcorn chicken and Smash burger. The curry seasoning on the chips and fries take the flavors to the next level and the blood orange margarita is a must. read more

Dined here for a late lunch on a Thursday and glad we did. The place is located in the market area of downtown Omaha and was a real find. We started with the grilled salted edamame (probably the best I have ever had in my life) and the crab rangoons (meh) and some unsweetened tea. Those items filled use up but we did order an entree each, me the nam nom salad and my sister the grilled shrimp tacos. Both wonderful! My salad was a mixture of spices, cabbage, noodles, and green onions with a slight kick. Eat bite was unique. I ate a lot of the dish but the quantity of it never dissipated. I couldn't finish it. We were celebrating a birthday and shared the Chinese five spice dusted donuts- not what I expected... they were slightly savory and slightly sweet without tasting like anise and fish sauce. read more

This place is pretty good! They have a wide selection of drinks on the wire menu. All of the ones that I've ordered were so good. Our server seated our group quickly despite being a busy day for a Saturday. For entrees, we got the breakfast noodles and quesabirria tacos. Good portions, good times, I'll be back for sure. read more

I've been wanting to check out this new Flagship restaurant since it opened, and finally did for happy hour! It's a fun Asian-fusion inspired, super aesthetically pleasing spot. I came with a friend and we were seated right away, and were able to make reservations ahead of time to ensure we got a spot. It wasn't very busy when we went, but you never know! We sat inside because of the heat, but the patio was a gorgeous spot that would be perfect to sit and enjoy some nicer weather. We came specifically for the happy hour, and I was very impressed at the selection of happy hour items on the menu. I wanted to try more of the drinks, but ended up getting two of the frozen blood orange margaritas with a Tajin rim. SO good for the summer!!! I ordered the curry fries which came with a spicy mayo and ketchup, and the popcorn chicken which had a sweet-spicy glaze and cilantro-jalapeño mix. My friend ordered the taquitos (soon to be removed from the menu we were told) and yummy fries. Those were both so good too! I love the option to the pu pu platters for multiple options, and only $35 during happy hour. The wait staff and hosts were all incredible, no notes!! read more

I've wanted to check out Anthem for a while now - they took over the old Plank Provisions on 12th and Howard so they are in a prime spot downtown. My main reason for 4 stars were the drinks...maybe it was what I ordered, but tried the Thai Tea Old Fashioned and it was heavy and thick tasting, ended up watering it down a bit with my water. The bangkok pork was phenomenal, would absolutely go back for this meal. Also tried the nam nom noodle salad and that was good, but very spicy. The menu is unique and I appreciate the new spot downtown. read more

Went for happy hour (3:00-6:30 on Saturday) Got seated quick and ordered some happy hour margs, the house marg was good, nothing super fancy but it wasn't a big marg and it was $8.. there's a spot in benson with the same size margs for $3 every day. I would have liked a larger glass for $8. We got the Cheat Code PuPu Platter, it said it fed 4-6 people but two ladies smashed ALL of it. The tuna tacos were good, nothing crazy about them, just good. The jalapeno Mac poppers were the best on the plate I think, fun taste and good bite. The crab Rangoons were honestly sad, they weren't stuffed with anything really, all wonton and no crab. The Thai curry fries were good, but they're just fries with curry seasoning on them. The flautas were ok, didn't taste like anything. It was a bland platter, not a whole lot of food ($35 during HH and $40 during reg hours). The service was good, the tables are a little crowded but if you ask for a booth there is more room. I might go back to try a different plate but the drinks are super expensive even during HH and the platters are not worth the money. read more

Anthem was amazing! The atmosphere is so fun, with great lighting and a trendy Asian fusion aesthetic. It truly feels like a hidden gem--we don't have many places like this in Omaha. Our waiter was incredibly kind, gave excellent recommendations, and you could tell he genuinely loved the food and wanted us to have a great experience. We ordered the flautas, queso, edamame, shrimp tacos, and the house margarita, and every single thing was spot on. The flavors were incredible, and the service was just as impressive. There was plenty of seating, the overall vibe was fantastic, and we'll absolutely be back. Don't miss out on this place! read more

I always look forward to checking out a new Flagship concept, and walking into this one definitely lived up to my expectations. The atmosphere and decor were exactly the kind of vibe I was hoping for. We started with the Ube Espresso Martini and the tuna tacos, and without spoiling the rest of the meal, these ended up being our favorites. The martini was sweet with the perfect hint of coconut, while the tacos were buttery with just the right amount of spice, balanced by the refreshing slaw. For my entrée, I ordered the shrimp tacos. They were good, but nothing about them really stood out. My husband ordered the Rice Rice Baby, which was a generous portion and surprisingly unique thanks to the popcorn chicken. The service was excellent. Several team members checked on us throughout the meal, and we felt genuinely well taken care of. Overall, the quality of the food was good, but the menu wasn't quite for us. Many of the dishes leaned heavily into curry flavors, which limited the options that appealed to our tastes. I'd absolutely come back for the drinks, appetizers, and atmosphere, but the entrées didn't leave the same impression. read more

This place replaced the restaurant Planks, busy area! This place had outdoor seating as well, but mainly if you want to snack or grab a drink. We got the sticky ribs and it was good, but it was a little salty in my opinion. We also got the cheat code as well, very filling and a great choice to get if you want to try multiple things on the menu and share. The crispy wonton tuna tacos were probably my least favorite - I think it had sprinkles on them? Which isn't what I'd prefer and tuna didn't taste as fresh. Next time I think I'd get the cure shareable platter! read more

Anthem - Tiger Style Sticky Ribs and the cheat code shareable platter - American Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Anthem is a wonderful addition to the downtown Old Market area. The outdoor seating areas offer both sit down tables for a bite to eat and relaxing benches for a glass of wine to chat with friends. All nestled in beautiful flowers and greenery that separate you from the hustle and bustle. The service is excellent. Friendly, informative and helpful staff make your visit so pleasant. The food was great! Adding a bit of Asian fusion to many American fare favs. Smash burger was tasty and I was happy to see that one of the side choices was a nice salad with delicious Ponzu vinaigrette dressing. A refreshing change from the classic burger n fries combo! The indoor decor and seating was tasteful and varied. Bar top, booths and cozy comfy chatting areas. Definitely add this restaurant to your next lunch or dinner list read more

I really love flagship restaurants but the experience I had here severely missed the high quality service and food mark that the affiliated restaurants so easily exceed. It was a Friday night and I popped in to see if I could snag a spot for a quick drink before meeting my friend for dinner. The bar is open seating but the host kinda snubbed me for thinking I could get a seat. So off the bat, the whole "we're so exclusive" was a reason to turn away. Although I understood it was a busy night and I really didn't let that get to me and bounced out the door thinking that was expected but he didn't have to be so mean. Well, the other time came later that evening. While walking back to the hotel I noticed that Anthem had cleared out quite a bit and The Ube Espresso Martini was really calling my name. We decided to go in and found a spot at the bar. One bartender was absolutely wonderful, but any other time someone else helped us it felt as though we were an inconvenience. Are Millenials too old for this place?! If that's the environment this place is providing, I'll pass. I don't need to be treated poorly to feel cool in a new hip spot - this is Omaha not New York ya'll. The largest issue I had, is I found out on an Instagram post the next day that they have late night happy hour. Well that was news to me considering they did not inform us of this or give us a happy hour menu while sitting at the bar during that time frame. We were completely unaware of this and ordered full menu items when we would have had an array of smaller plates. Don't get played like we did and make sure you ask for a happy hour menu! The food and drink offerings are a bit all over the place. I think this restaurant is a little confused on what culture or region of food they want to serve, but I can say that everything we ate was tasty. Prices were decent for an Old Market location. I did not love the Ube Martini like I thought because there are high notes of coconut in it. I think I would visit again, but if the next experience is anything like the first it'll be a no thank you from then on. read more

I visited Anthem twice on my last visit to Omaha - what a great addition in the old Plank space. They have made it quite beautiful inside! Typical street parking or there is a parking garage about a block either way. Reservations recommended, and they have indoor, bar, and outdoor patio seating available. The first visit, I came for the Ube Espresso martini I had been seeing all over social media, which did not disappoint if you are a coconut fan! I also tried the crab rangoon which were served with a gochujang sauce and Chinese mustard aioli, different and yummy! The second visit was for brunch. We did the mimosa service (bottle of champagne, two juices, 3 flavor droppers, great deal for 2+ people!), the queso with curry dusted chips (YUM), and I had the chicken biscuit (the combo of the kewpie mayo + hot honey was awesome) with potatoes (more like flat tator tot rounds). This is a cool addition to the Omaha food scene. Something a little different than the usual with a little Asian fusion! read more

We tried out Anthem this weekend and had a wonderful evening! The restaurant is truly gorgeous- Flagship always has amazing interiors! We made a reservation and were at the restaurant during happy hour. A delicious mojito and chips and guac started off the meal! For mains, we ordered the Smash Burger and Birria Tacos with fries and a house salad. The tacos were flavorful and the fries were addictive! The Smash Burger was rich and indulgent. The only item I would not order again was the house salad- get the fries or chips as your side instead! Our server showed us the menu and pointed out her favorites, we got our food quickly and spend about 45 minutes in the restaurant! We will be back to test out additional menu items- totally recommend trying! read more

First time I went here & it was delicious! My friend & I split a platter called "The Cure." It had popcorn chicken, yummy fries, crab rangoon, edamame & queso with chips. It was $35 on happy hour. I really enjoyed the meal. Everything was super tasty and different. The vibe was so cute & I loved the lighting in there. It was perfect. I'll definitely be coming back here to try something different read more

Fun fusion concept we sat at the bar for Early dinner - they were so so busy - however Staff was busy, not friendly or helpful. The Yummy Fries - were yummy crispy sweat potato fries with fun sauces and Bonita fish flakes. Then we had ponzu salmon noodles - the salmon was good- however it had sat under heat toooo long and the noodles were dry - no sauce, cabbage or cashews, was topped with cilantro . I might go for the fries..... Otherwise I would not read more

Finally got some free time to check this place out, and I wasn't disappointed!! Went on a weekend, and it was super busy. Didn't have a reservation but was able to get a table pretty quick. They have both indoor and outdoor seating if you have preference. The menu has a little bit of everything for anyone. Started off with crab rangoons, edamame hummus, and tuna wonton tacos. Everything came fresh and super quick. The crab rangoons were my favorite. They were crunchy and the sauce paired really well with them. For my entree I got chicken fried rice. The waitress recommended to add shrimp to spice it up a bit and she wasn't wrong! Great recommendation, and I definitely would come back just for that. The drink menu also has a pretty extensive cocktail list. The espresso martini had to have been one of the best drinks I ever had. Downtown Omaha has a ton of good spots but this is definitely one of my new favorites down here. Really cute spot that has something for anyone. Will be back soon! read more

Anthem was such a lovely experience and brought a new taste to Omaha that the Old Market absolutely needed. The food, staff, and overall aesthetics of Anthem are amazing and such a perfect place for a nice spring lunch date. The patio is the cutest, and the inside of the restaurant truly transports you. The ambiance was very light, dreamy, and full of life and greens. I especially loved the projector showing moving boats down the wall while we enjoyed our meal. We started with the flautas de sol, which were absolutely delicious. They were the perfect mix of crunch and creamy filling, and the presentation was beautiful. Next we split the nam nom noodle salad and bangkok pork, both of which were flavorful and delicious. The eggs in the salad were particularly yummy, and I was pleasantly surprised. Our server, Yadhira, was also the absolute sweetest and most helpful guide to Anthem. She had great recommendations and was very nice, making this experience one of the best. read more

Adventuring through Old Market here in Omaha and stopped in for a little snack. The happy hour prices are great. The platters are only $35 and a good portion for 2. The service is very prompt.

This place is a whole vibe. I went for brunch last weekend and they did not come to play. The moment I walked in and saw a DJ spinning at 10:45am, I knew exactly what kind of day it was about to be. Brunch? No. Brunch with intention. Our server Justin was incredible...fun, full of life, and every recommendation he made was spot‑on like he had a direct line to my taste buds. I started with the Ube Espresso Martini (because why wouldn't I). Then we ordered the donuts, the French toast, and the chicken biscuit. Everything was so filling we only made it halfway through... which is honestly my favorite kind of problem. But the best part? I love restaurants that make you feel like you've been transported somewhere else. And this one had me feeling like I was brunching in LA, not Omaha. I will absolutely be back and I'm so glad this spot decided to bless our city. read more

Anthem is the place I wanna take all my friends from out of town. It's the ultimate drinks and apps restaurant where you can stay for hours and enjoy every second. The energy is great, the service is always very accommodating. I would always recommend a reservation as they are super popular! I've been twice and both times I got the frozen blood orange margarita- it is my favorite! The cheat code was a great starter since you get to try all the things as well! Highly recommend putting this place on your list. read more

Drinks were 10/10 and I'd come back for drinks and apps. I haven't met a flagship concept I haven't liked, but I wasn't in love with this one. We went opening day and started with drinks and an app, both were yummy and you can tell the rangoons are a version of Blue's. I got the chicken sandwich and my partner got the tuna tacos as they weren't as hungry. Neither left us planning to come back for the entree. The chicken was good and nothing to complain about, but not wow. The tacos were about the same but salty? The updated interior was adorable and the service was great! We both decided we'd like to come back and share a pupu platter over drinks with more folks before truly passing judgement as we're big flagship fans, so we'll be back!! read more

Stopped in for dinner before a show. Great experience! Love the new vibe. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were very attentive. Started off with the EXSW (East by Southwest) Margarita. It had tequila, sake, yuzi and mango. Delicious! Also got the Hugo Ranch Water. It was good, but a little too sweet from the Saint Germain. For food we got the Cheat Code pupu platter. It was really good and perfect for 2 to split for a meal. We really liked the wonton tuna tacos and jalapeño mac poppers. A great way to try a variety of their appetizers. We'll be back to try more of the menu! read more

Fantastic from start to finish. I was busy taking in the incredible decor and atomosphere to notice how quickly the restaurant was filling up at 11am. Our server Yadia -- a true gem! A warm and personable cutesy gal who took care of us. From perfect recommendations, to putting up with our endless photo and video shots, she was a huge reason we had such a stellar first experience at Anthem. On to the food. We started witht Fluata de sol, perfect crips and flavorful at first bite. The dipping sauce and guac were perfect complements. The rolled wrap is stuffed generously with meat as well. Then on to the nam nom salad. Similar to Blatts noodle salad, it was a heaping pile of noodles, like you'd get in Blues bento box, with a great dressing and its huge! Definitely could be a shareable. We also split the braised pork dish with the crisp egg. My first go at this type of dish but I'll definitely try again. The 3 dishes came in right under $50, which I think is fair especially given the portion sizes. Anthem is very similar to other Flagship restaurants while still boasting it's own personality. I definitely don't rave about all my experiences, but this one was top notch. highly recommend. read more

We had a lovely Saturday brunch here. The burger was a five, the omelette was delicious and the breakfast noodles are tasty if not spicy. Guac and chips were also nice-the curry chip was special! But....tables are too close together and the restaurant is loud and on the day we went they had a dj which was extra loud. Restrooms seemed like you were at a club. Stick to the food-the menu is inventive and tasty! Service was also great. Food came out promptly. We will doubtless be back. read more

4 of us had brunch today at Anthem. Loved it!!! Service was great and the food was amazing! My uncle had the Asian Mary with the added snacks and love love loved it!

Our server was incredible. He was so friendly and checked in on us and gave his recommendations! I was only truly disappointed with the anthem hash browns.

So beautiful!! What a great experience in downtown Omaha. They have a beautiful entrance with an outdoor patio. They have plenty of seating indoors, also very pretty looking. We started with some house shots- they definetly pack a punch. The mandarin sangria was sweet, and the Hugo ranch water was refreshing. Starting the meal with the loaded Hatch Chili Queso was so worth it. It was truly loaded with meat, veggies, guac, and cheese. The chips are also very sturdy and crispy. My queso birria beef tacos were huge and rich with flavor. Prices are pretty decent and the Asian Mexican American fusion menu was really fun too.

Walked in to sit at the nearly half-empty bar with no line waiting. The host said it would be a 45-minute wait.

Anthem had a fun atmosphere located in the old market of Omaha. Service was quick, attentive and overall great. Good, upbeat music playing just loud enough to be heard but not overbearing or interrupting conversation. Outdoor seating was clean and well kept. Food was good, but nothing overly magical. Ordered "The Cure" platter that came with 5 different appetizers. Additionally ordered an Ube Espresso Martini. The appetizers were good, but some over worked with far to much added, making them not as appealing. The chips and dip was very good, but cheese cooled quickly, becoming thick and paste-like, making it not as enjoyable later. Charred edamame was extremely good, favorite in the table. Salted perfectly, good char flavor and not bitter at all. Popcorn chicken was good, second favorite, with a fun sauce and decent spice added. The crab Rangoon was decent, but the sweet and sour sauce had a strange tang, similar to siracha sauce, that was not my favorite but some could like. The sweet potato fries were not good. They were slightly under cooked, slightly tough to bite through and had a horrible covering/ sauce that was not enjoyable to eat at all. Overall great atmosphere, fun time, decent food and could be better if we had ordered something else next time! read more
