On the exterior, the town of Monowi, Nebraska, is an unremarkable wide spot in the road along Route 12 just south of the state's border with South Dakota. Only one, single resident remains. Upon my arrival, I met the famous mayor Elsie Eiler on the eve of her 90th birthday. She still makes her way down from her trailer to the restaurant every day, the same establishment she and her late husband Rudy have operated for over half a century. It's incredible she has the energy to keep the place running at her age, a spry woman short in stature who does the cooking and bartending all day every day. Being the only business open in town, excluding the free 5,000-book library around the corner, it's the obvious place to gather amidst the abandoned homes, crumbling vacant post office, and dilapidated church. If you're willing to make this worthwhile drive to remote Nebraska, the biggest surprise is that the food is actually very good! The pizzas are wonderful, defying all logic as to how such a delicious pie could be found so far from civilization. The menu offers a stunning selection of foods, all of which Elsie prepares, including two styles of hamburgers, five other sandwiches, and three different cuts of steak among several other options. They have a plethora of side dishes from tater tots and fries to gizzards and cheese balls, all at very reasonable prices!

    We wanted to order a $25.95 t-bone and share it. My husband had a beer and I had water. When the…read morewaitress said their was a $3.50 shared plate fee, we were like ok, what does that include as most restaurants that charge a shared plate fee give an extra side or salad or something. She said the fee was, "for a plate, silverware, and her." I asked her to give us a minute as I have never paid such a high shared plate fee to receive nothing but a plate and fork. She was going to wait on me whether my husband was there or not. When she came back we asked her to tab out the one beer he had already drank. The manager came back with our debit card in hand and told us that the only way we could eat there was to share the plate and extra $3.50 fee because it cost them money for one of us to sit there and not eat. We were fine to leave without ordering as we were not going to pay the fee for nothing. There was no need for the manager to come to our table and smart off to us about how necessary the fee was to cover the cost of his waitress, the plate, and his table. In fact, at that point there was no need for him to come speak to us at all. He was so rude and so hateful and ended his talk with, "are we finished with this conversation yet? GOOD." The fact is the restaurant had maybe five of its 20 tables full at the time. People weren't lined up to come inside the place. My husband was running a bar tab, which has the highest profit in a restaurant. I was going to buy the most expensive item on the menu. The waitress was going to get a 20% tip because that's how we work. The waitress lost out on at least $6 tip if we had only ordered one beer and food. The restaurant lost out in all the profit from food and beer. And I am writing this review. To the owner, your manager is arrogant, hateful and not very good with people. I know your town is small, I grew up in one of those towns. I also assume you don't like profit walking out the door because if he would treat someone like that, he will treat anyone like that.

    It's a nice place. Not a lot of options in this town, but it's a solid place. Clean. Kinda cool…read morelooking. Has a 'bar' area and a 'dining' area. First off: No pool/darts/shuffle board/stereo during 'dinner hours.' Makes the old people grumpy. Plus, there's a sign. My family of 6 was satisfied. My burger was a little burnt, but the fries were great. The ranch is NOT good. I'm a ranch snob. This made me sad. I think prices are a little high, but they're the ONLY place around here other than the casino. Full bar. A lot of beers on tap. Bathrooms are nice. A neat little photo op area out front. I know I'll be back some day but as earlier stated, it's like, the only place around.

Niobrara Nebraska is a tiny town, but with the rivers and rolling hills it's pretty. The restaurant didn't look promising from the street but when you drive around the back it had a cute entrance. Inside is smallish with a bar on one side of a half divider and tables on the other. The interior decor was definitely sportsman themed with taxidermy animals everywhere and an antler chandelier. But it was clean and cute. Great wooden bar and tin ceiling. There were maybe 10 people in here on a Tuesday night and several looked like regulars watching Wheel of Fortune at the bar. The service was good, one bartender who was also waiting tables but I didn't wait long for anything I ordered a sweet tea which had a weird flavor so I exchanged it for a Coke which was also weird so I didn't drink it. I ordered a bacon burger but since they only had American cheese, I got mine sans cheese. That said, the burger was good. It was big and really juicy and the thick sliced bacon was a nice addition. I ordered cheese curds instead of fries and they were also good. Definitely not a gormet place, but it was solid. And considering it's the only thing in Niobrara Nebraska, it's great compared to the competition! Edited to add that the women's restroom smelled weird, there were two stalls but one was out of order. The stall had two swinging doors with a two inch gap right down the middle. And the doors were so close to the toilet that they literally slapped me on my ass on my way in!
