Double Cheeseburger Combo with fries and a nice cold Pibb!

Oh. My. Gosh! This is by FAR the most classic, good-ole boy, make-you-wanna-order-another burger I've had in years! It came out quick and took me straight back to when I was a boy eating a burger with my momma at the local "Georgia's Drive-In" that we had back home when I was a kid. The woman, who I assume was the manager, that took my order was so sweet! When I came in she was sweeping, and I accidentally sat right in her way after I ordered! Instead of being rude about it like most would nowadays, we had a nice laugh and conversation. I always appreciate someone giving a smile instead of a scowl in response to an honest mistake! It goes a million miles further and, believe it or not, makes the food taste better! The atmosphere isn't going to be your Michelin style, clean cut and polished restaurant, and THANK GOODNESS! Being in Omaha for business seems to take the human out of you sometimes, but this place took me right back to the diners of my childhood. I'm not typically one to order a second go around, but boy it was tempting... I may have to go back tonight to try it again... just to make sure I really liked it! Overall 10/10. Try this place, it was enough to make me call home! (No joke!)

Classic!

I feel like I use the phrase "an Omaha classic" a lot. But I'm never lying about it. Bronco's chicken is awesome! That being said, I almost always get the patty melt here because it's the best one I have ever found! Just the best. Sometimes I don't see it on the menu board and have a moment of panic. The fries are like from another era. Kinda limp and greasy but I mean that in the best way! I usually don't get my own order, I prefer to steal them from my husband's meal. Somehow that makes them even better. He loves the chocolate shake...it's not really a favorite of mine; the soft-serve ice cream makes it kind of foamy. Nonetheless I have to have a taste or two of his. Service here is usually great - fast and friendly. The unique (anymore anyway) building and the neon sign...I hope these things never go away. Seating inside is limited; there are some picnic tables outside as well. But like it says, you might have to drive thru. Let's not let these classic places just slip away!

Sweet little old school burger joint Great fries, had a regular cheese burger and even though it was a tad on the tigon side it tasted like a burger old fashion burger. Next time I'm trying the onion rings and fried chicken

Is this some type of joke?

It's not often I hand out a 1 star review, but Bronco's is well deserving. They've definitely earned this one. From the terrible customer service, to the pathetic excuse for a cheeseburger... Oh, did I forget the unseasoned, lukewarm, soggy fries? How are places like this still in business? This place is absolutely awful.

Receipt clearly shows plain

The clerk taking our order avoided eye contact and we could barely hear what they were saying. Hubs Ordered a plain burger with lettuce and onion and got it with mustard and bronco sauce along with sloppy sautéed onions. The fries were greasy. I ordered a patty melt that was barely toasted . I brought my patty melt home to hopefully give it a second chance. Hubs left his meal for the trash. Not willing to say anything for fear of spit in our food. They have 3 booths for dine in . Employees lack any welcoming efforts. It's too bad a log standing establishment was so disappointing for our first time.

I love being able to customize with veggies instead of carbs on carbs on carbs. I got the Huli Huli chicken with macaroni salad and seasoned veggies. I would get this over and over again! The portions were so big, I was able to have dinner and for lunch the next day! I loved the macaroni salad, it was a pleasant surprise that it's warm since I don't like cold macaroni salad. The veggies had a great seasoning on them and were steamed perfectly. The chicken was so good! Lots of real chicken pieces in a sweet-savory sauce over rice. I died a little inside seeing the classic plate have meat on top of rice with a side of rice and a side of macaroni but thankfully I didn't have to get it that way! Almost forgot we tried the Spam musubi too and OMG I'll be back for that! Warm, seasoned sticky rice with a big chunk of grilled Spam wrapped in seaweed. Ugh, so good.

It's a little spicy without being unpleasant. The Kilauea was a bit too spicy for me, and I couldn't really taste any flavor beyond the spice. Sometimes the chicken is hot and fresh, sometimes it's luke warm. A few times we've got small bones in the chicken which is a bit of a turn off when you're not expecting it. The kids like the dole whip. A little taste of Disney right in our own backyard. Overall, fun to try. If we end up back in the area playing the 'what do you want to eat' game, this would be a top contender.

I ordered the Hummus Stacked Bowl with Lamb. As soon as you're seated, you're served warm pita bread to start. Each table has olive oil, salt, and pepper available for dipping, which made for a simple but delicious beginning to the meal. The pita was warm, fluffy, and had outstanding texture and flavor. Despite the restaurant being busy during its first few hours of opening, the food arrived surprisingly quickly. The presentation alone was enough to make me hungry, but the aroma of the lamb had me ready to dig in immediately. The hummus, which serves as the foundation of the dish, was silky smooth and velvety when paired with the olive oil. The grilled squash and onions added a wonderful contrast of textures, blending perfectly with the warm ingredients while still maintaining a satisfying bite. Their seasoning was spot on. Bright red cherry tomatoes brought a fresh, vibrant element that tied everything together beautifully. The bowl also came with additional pita and seasoned pita chips, adding even more variety to the meal. Overall, Meddys absolutely exceeded my expectations. For a restaurant that had only been open a few hours, the food, service, and execution were impressive across the board. I was blown away and can't wait to return and work my way through the rest of their beautiful menu.

The potatoes paired with it, worked in harmony. The chicken was cooked perfectly with my only qualm being the pickled radish and pickles, which were delicious. But I wish we're in a separate container since it made the potatoes slightly soggy. The baklava tray is worth it if you're looking for a family size dessert with a delightful dough variety that highlights pistachios and a slightly sweetened syrup. It came plastic wrap tight in a nice Meddy's box which could make from a nice gift. I will say the baklava tray was $9 more on DoorDash vs the 29.99 price stated in their website. With each meal have an additional ~$2 up charge on each item. Was it worth it? Oh yes! Would I do it again, likely not.

They argued with a doordash guy about how they packaged the desserts. They didn't man the contour or even know what was on there menu. It took three of the four employees to deliver us a mediocre customer service experience. I had to ask several time to get my drinks for my order. The kid who just took my order shrugged his shoulders when I asked for my drinks and walked away towards the back. I had to get one of the young ladies to help me but she stared as if she couldn't understand the words coming out of my mouth. She did one drink at a time and then would ask me again for the next one. The kid who took my order just hung out by the heat lamps talking to the cook. Preparation of the hotdogs isn't rocket science but neither of the two males was capable of putting the hot dogs together. In addition they had prepared desserts that where hard when my daughter's tried to eat her strawberry funnel cake. This wasn't just some kids being silly, what this was is poor supervision and education. I will go back but I will leave if the staff behaved the way they did this day.

What should have been a simple online order turned into an unnecessarily frustrating experience. I entered the entire order, but when I got to checkout, the purchase button was grayed out and would not allow me to complete the transaction. Thinking the issue might be that I had not entered my credit card information, I tried to add it separately, only to be told that payment information could only be added when making a purchase. When I returned to checkout, my entire order had disappeared from my cart. I entered everything a second time and had the exact same problem. I then called the store hoping I could simply place the order over the phone. I was told I would need to come into the store to place it. That was incredibly inconvenient, but I drove to the restaurant with my laptop and order information anyway. The night manager was very nice and genuinely tried to help. She looked over the order on my laptop and could not identify any reason the website wouldn't allow me to complete the purchase. Unfortunately, she then told me the store could only enter orders for the same day and could not place my order for the following morning. She called the GM for assistance and was told that I would need to order through Grubhub, DoorDash, or another third-party service. That solution made absolutely no sense. Why should a customer have to pay additional third-party fees to order Dave's Hot Chicken because Dave's own website isn't functioning properly--especially after that customer has already attempted to order online, called the restaurant, AND driven to the store at the restaurant's direction? The only other option offered was for me to return when the restaurant opened at 10:30 the next morning and place the order then. My meeting began at 11:00, which was the entire reason I was trying to place a scheduled order in advance. After everything I had already experienced, there was no way I could reasonably trust that I would be able to place a group order, have it prepared, leave the restaurant, get to my meeting, and set up on time. Again, the night manager was polite and apologetic, and I don't fault her for the limitations of the system. But ultimately, no one was able to offer a reasonable solution. I made multiple attempts to give this restaurant my business--twice through their website, by phone, and finally by physically driving to the store--and still could not place an order for the following morning. This was an incredibly poor customer experience caused by a combination of a malfunctioning ordering system, policies that prevent employees from helping customers work around that system, and a complete lack of a reasonable alternative when something goes wrong. Ordering chicken should simply not be this difficult.

I noticed a lot of newer eateries and businesses in Aksarben since the last time I was there, so hopefully some of them stick around a while. Anyhoo, on to Crispy Burger! First off, the interior is bright and colorful, with a lot of orange, red, and then an accent wall of black and white geometric shapes. It's a super welcoming vibe! One thing that's kind of weird is that the building (and Yelp and Google) says Crispy Chicken, but all the wrappers and signs say "Crispy Burger" which was confusing. The smells inside when you walk in make your mouth water, so get ready to over order if it's your first time here (we definitely did!) They have a LOT of fried things, like fried chicken, mozzarella sticks, popcorn chicken, etc. So this definitely is not an every day place if you are looking for health food. We ordered the cheese sticks to start and they were enormous. Definitely shareable between a few people, as each cheese stick is like an appetizer in itself! I ordered the nuggets and fries, and they were really well breaded and pretty large. You can choose from about 1500 sauces for dipping (ok, maybe more like ten, but that's still a lot!) The fries were great too, that come as a side in your box. My husband had the bone in chicken wings combo, and he was very pleased with his choice. Gigantic wings, with fries, a biscuit, and mashed potatoes and gravy on the side. Now is Crispy Burger fine dining or somewhere you'd go on a date night? Definitely not. But it's nice, tasty food, for a pretty inexpensive price. So I would definitely recommend trying it out next time you're in the Aksarben area!

I'd have to say the fan favorite of the night was the skewers. The flavor was so tasty and light. I believe it was chicken thighs, there were some fatty pieces but I honestly didn't mind. The nuggets reminded me of a similar fast food location with the Golden Arches logo. I honestly didn't mind because these had more flavor and seasonings within; same consistency of chicken within though. I can see myself coming back here to try some of their boba and rolled ice cream!
