Wow! Just wow. I had been craving fish and chips for several weeks at this point and heard that Dundee Dell was the place to go to enjoy it. We headed here recently because it happened to be where packet pick up was for the 5K we were participating in the next day. I thought since we'd already be here we could also have a nice delicious dinner of Fish and Chips! I was a little surprised at the price of the meal but after it was served and we started chowing down, I understand!! Our server Chris was great, he answered any questions we had, refilled our waters in a timely manner, brought us more napkins, and even shared about the brown sauce that people in Britain put on everything. The meal itself comes with a large piece of lacey fried Icelandic cod with dipping sauces on the side. You get a mushy peas curry sauce, a yellowish curry sauce, and a tartar like sauce. It's not exactly those things but for the sake of this review and to help you visualize it those are my descriptions of these tasty sauces!! The fish is laid on a bead of crispy fries and honestly served like this it's the perfect proportion of fries to fish ratio. I like my fish and chips with a lot of malt vinegar and the bottle on the table comes in handy to add more when each bite needs a little more zing. I did try that brown sauce and it is certainly worth trying! It's got a flavor I'm unable to completely describe but it's worth having the experience!! I hadn't been in Dundee Dell for several years but when you walk in, it's definitely got that elegant library or lobby feel. Darker painted walls with gold accents throughout and some fun pieces of decor speckled throughout. I'm still a little confused about the giant giraffe but I'm all for it!! I will say, the craving had been successfully satisfied by the fish and chips here. So if you ever had that desire for delicious Fish and Chips head to Dundee and go here. Thank me later! read more

Dundee Dell is a classic Omaha favorite with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. The service was friendly and attentive, and the staff made us feel right at home. The food was excellent, especially the fish and chips, which were perfectly cooked with a crispy, golden batter and flaky fish. Pair it with one of their beers or cocktails, and you've got a great meal. You can tell why this place has been an Omaha staple for so many years. A special thank you for the wonderful service. Great food, great drinks, and a comfortable atmosphere--we'll definitely be back! read more

Ate here for lunch today with some of the family. Been wanting to come back here because I love brussels sprouts so much and the Reuben is typically very good as well. To get to the point, I was very disappointed that the brussels sprouts came out totally different this time. If you look at my photo, you can see the brussels sprouts from my original review a couple months ago. Unfortunately, I don't have a photo of my brussels sprouts today, but they came in a circular bowl with about half of the portion that I received on my first visit. Did they taste good, absolutely. But I definitely got half a portion this time over the last time. My service was good and the Reuben was good today, but the brussels sprouts, a major disappointment. Bummer. read more

I really enjoyed the caprese appetizer. I'm not sure the exact name of it, it was a special that is not on the regular menu - but if it was, I would be back just for that! It was crispy on the outside and the mozzarella was the perfect consistency on the inside. The bangers and mash were okay. I ate half of one and gave the rest to my husband. Service was good. We went with another couple and our four children. It was a kid friendly environment, but if I chose to go again, it would just be with adults. read more

Remodeled and kept the charm. Love the atmosphere and the service was excellent. We shared the brussel sprouts and wow they are good! One of my all time favorites of all I have tried in Omaha. Perfect crispness and the teriyaki sauce was delicious. Both of us got the pesto chicken sandwich. It was good but honestly I could not taste the pesto but I loved the roasted tomatoes and olive tapenade! Too big to eat in one sitting. I will be back! read more

I know I know... I've been before, and I know I know.. we both got the same thing as last time. Can it, Veruca Salt! But if you've ever had their fish and chips, then this will all make sense... 10000% again on their Chicken Fried Chicken delish as usual. The gravy was a little more "floury" tasting this time, and borderline on a little pasty in texture, but let's be honest we're really here for the chicken. Juicy, flavored just right, breading ratio was superb (although I am quick to steal what I call the crunchies, with zero shame). Mashed red potatoes, green-beanies, flavorful juicy chicken screams comfort. Do their fish (icelandic haddock) and chips *really* need an introduction? Does their ridiculously good, easily addictive dippy-dip sauce that is awfully close to tartar sauce (but imagine 100% times better) need ANY formal intro? NOPE... that's damn near drinkable folks.. and whom ever was working the fry drop back in the kitchen... WELL DONE YOU that crispness was on point. Fairly certain their Nitro Cold Brew Martini made me grow hair on my chest, but that's for a completely different group; obvi. Bartender gets mad props for that one though! Did we win their February red envelope Europe trip? Of course not, but we did follow the rules and snagged a 25% off our meal. Looks like their March - June one has some excellent bennies to be used here and their sister restaurant, Barchen Beer Garden in Benson. read more

Had brunch here. So good. Had the egg sandwich, full English breakfast and waffle between my husband and myself. All of it was top notch. Good combination of flavors around traditional offerings make their food better than a standard breakfast place. The waffle comes with a delicious blueberry / raspberry compote and homemade whipped cream. It tasted look like a pastry. I cannot say enough good things here. The manager was very helpful and friendly. It's been decades since I've been here and this is NOT the same dive bar. It's so much better now!! read more

What a great restaurant! I crave their fish and chips all of the time. So light and crispy! The breading is just right. Not too thick but, you can still tell it is there. The tartar sauce and chops are also very good. I love that they also have the "right" kind of vinegar to douse it in. I went during October when they were decorated for Halloween and had a Harry Potter theme as well. Very nice ambiance and service. Only took off a star for price. The food is great but, I wish the entrees were $3-5 cheaper. If so, I would be here weekly instead of on a more special occasion. read more

Dundee Dell - Two piece fish and chips - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Ok, this place has changed in the last year. Last time I was here I got the fish and chips that were wonderful and flaky a bit on the small side with (2) medium strips and fries but delicious and at a fair price. Came here for lunch today 2/15 and the menu had completely changed. No lunch items only full on dinner menu items at a cost (20$ and up, fish was 23$). Needless to say my partner got the Ruben (21$) and I got the chicken fried chicken. Service was slow with only one other couple in the bar as the waitress seemed off? Distracted or dare I say (stoned).Anyhow food was all good but waitress mentioned they made a chicken sandwich not CFC, the breading on the chicken tasted like fish batter and just fell off the chicken probably because this was from the breaded chicken sandwich used instead of the CFC. But for lunch and (2) drinks each with tip 95$? For lunch? While I understand that food costs are high but I also understand why people aren't going out as much. If you're charging premium prices then give me premium service/food. read more

After a quick flight to Omaha, the girls and I ventured out for a bite to eat. Dundee Dell was the place of choice and a good one at that!! ++ The neighborhood is beyond cute, brightly colored and welcoming! So quaint and cute! ++ The unassuming little exterior opens up to a spacious interior - featuring a beautifully restored bar, cozy booths and the perfect color palette! ++ Service is on point - to which our server, Ashley, was amazingly attentive for having the entire dining room to tend to, friendly, made great recommendations and ensured our waters/iced tea were refilled! Thank you! ++ Known for their Fish and Chips and a variety of British eats - the food is fantastic! Being that Mom and I had noshed on a loaded breakfast sandwich preflight, we opted to split a loaded shrimp salad. It was AMAZING - with the best dressing! Perfectly crunchy, tasty and light! YUM! When back in this little quaint part of Omaha, I'll be back to sample one of their signature cocktails! :) read more

We had a great time at the Dundee dell. We went for happy hour, we started with the fried pickles. They were delightful, breading was the perfect amount and the ranch that came with it was rather tasty. My wife got the 3 sliders and said they were really good. I went with the fish and chips the two piece and it was more than enough food. Especially with the appetizer. The fish was fried well and nice flaky fish. The tartar sauce did need stirred on arrival as it was a little watery but once stirred was really good! Definitely will be back. read more

I really wanted to like this place and was most intrigued by their Reuben they say has been around for ages. Unfortunately, besides the really cute interior and vibe, we didn't have a good time. We were the only 2 in the restaurant and it took nearly 30 minutes to get our two meals. The Reuben was good for a sandwich, but I can't say it was a great Reuben. My crab cake had crab shell in it! I wasn't sure when I first crunched on it, but then I pulled out a whole chunk which I posted a picture of. Pricey for no reason. read more

Such a great place...tasty food...unique whisk(e)y selection...nice decor...a winner Food: In my times here, I've tried pretzel app, their slider app, chicken tikka masala, fish n chips, and juicy double cheeseburger. Everything was quite good. Their fish n chips is filling, tasty, and hard to beat this side of the pond. I believe their juicy cheeseburger rivals my favorite burger in town (from The Special in Bellevue). Everything is good about the burger...bun, patty, and add-ons. A Ambiance: Their vibe is a British pub style. It's comfortable. Quite well done. B Service: Attentive, warm, Everything as it should be. A Drinks: They have Belgian beer (DeleriumTremens) and one of the best bourbon & scotch selections in town. I don't do mixed drinks, so I can not comment on those. A Overall, this is a great place for lunch, dinner, or a whiskey. Highly recommended! read more

Came to Dundee Dell yesterday for lunch. Service was good and quick. Had a shrimp Caesar salad. While it was good it still pretty basic. $21 for a basic salad is pretty insane. I mean if you order fish n chips you can get 3 pieces of fish for $19. They need to reevaluate their menu prices. Like I said food was good though. read more

I had the breaded chicken salad last night and it was so underwhelming. The chicken breast was so dry with no flavor and it was difficult to cut even with a steak knife. The lemon olive oil dressing was flat and had no taste at all. I was very disappointed in my meal. I wished I would have sent it back and ordered something else. read more

Located in a super nice little neighborhood, plenty of parking in the street. Nice roomy place with lots of table and booth seating. Heard a lot of reviews on the Fish N Chips, being from England we had to give em a try. Nice surprise they have Harp Larger and Guinness on draft. Ordered Calamari for starter and was pleasantly surprised, good flavor nice and crispy batter with a fantastic dipping sauce. The fried cod was excellent, very fresh and flaky with a light airy beer batter. Chips were ok, not hand cut, nothing close to a real chip shop chip, curry sauce wasn't very good and they also serve the curry sauce at room temp which was very weird. Overall nice little spot. read more

We used to live in Dundee and the Dell was a weekly dinner date. It had been years, we stopped in for a late lunch. Not busy. Staff was friendly and efficient. Of course we ordered fish and chips. It was as good as we remembered! Delicious! We will return soon! read more

The BEST fish and chips in town! Great beer selection! Inviting and cozy pub atmosphere!

I love the Dundee Dell and have tried several items which are all fresh and well balanced! My favorites are the curry and the fish and chips. The grilled cheese unfortunately was not my favorite as I felt it could easily have 2-3 time the amount of cheese to be more flavorful and less dry. The bread was crispy which I loved, but there just wasn't enough cheese although the flavor was great. Fried pickles were amazing even though I don't normally like them! I had the seasonal cranberry hot toddy which was also an incredible drink and something I don't normally go for. Overall it's always a great experience--great vibe. Fish and chips with the homemade tartar sauce is a must have!! read more

I truly wish this were in my restaurant rotation more often! Foolishly, it escapes my thoughts when I think of places to eat. Despite the beautiful and sophisticated renovation, it still offers the best simple fish and chips you can get in Omaha. The chicken fried chicken was MASSIVE! Enough for 2 and more the crab cakes were good, probably not better or worse than you can get in any seafood restaurant. The star of the show is always the fish and chips. Pair them with a lovey Guinness or one of their many, many scotch or bourbon selections and you have a perfect pair. read more

Stopped in for fish and chips, per usual. Sadly, it's just not the same since it reopened after the pandemic. The old classic pub feel is gone, the scotch selection is limited, the drinks are weak, and everything I've tried on the menu is over fried and over salted. On the bright side, service was great. Our server was kind, patient and attentive. I wish the food was better, but not her fault. There are a few restaurants within walking distance that I would recommend much higher than the dell unfortunately. I would only come here in a big pinch...and avoid the cocktails, just get a beer. read more

Popped in for a bite to eat on a Saturday afternoon. Working in Omaha for a couple months, found a place in Dundee, the Dell was highly recommended. Ashley, an outstanding barkeep, suggested the Crispy Chicken Sando, said it's the biggest chicken sando in the city. Challenge accepted. The monster came out and it was spectacular! Massive, lightly breaded, chicken patty. Fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and crispy pickles. At first glance, I was a bit intimidated. But a slow and steady pace, with a properly poured Guinness, the colossal beast was defeated. Do your self a favor and take the Pepsi challenge with the best chicken sando in the city @ Dundee Dell! Five stars!!! read more

100% will be making Dundee Dell a regular restaurant that I visit each month. Their Wagyu burger was the best burger I've ever had locally if not EVER and same goes for their fish and chips. Their service was out of this world when it came to making sure we were taken care of and the atmosphere was super clean friendly and in addition they had the place decked out for Halloween with Harry Potter decor. If I could go higher than 5 stars I would. (Picture would be included if I hadn't completely demolished it) read more

Went with the whole clan to the Dell for an early (5pm) St Patrick's Day dinner. I was psyched for Corned Beef (yeah, yeah, I know it's not really Irish - sue me!), and favorite oldest middle granddaughter was looking forward to her regular pretzel. Bummed out; they ran out of the corned beef dinner (yet still had enough for Reuben's) and took the pretzel off the menu. Settled for the fish and chips which were very good: flakey cod, nicely battered and perfectly fried. So: not quite what we were hoping for, but still a good dinner with the fam. read more

We were staying in the area for a few days, and ate here twice. First visit, we stopped by for happy hour. Ordered the Garden Mule - sickening sweet - sweeter than a soft drink, which is not the nature of a Mule. So, big pass on that. However, The Reuben was amazing! We stopped by again the next day for lunch, and ordered the fish and chips. Two of us ordered a side salad instead of fries/"chips" - the salads were huge and very good! A meal in itself. The fish was hit or miss - my husband received a nice thick fillet, yet mine were very flat, so mostly breading and a bit overcooked. Service was friendly and very attentive. read more

Really enjoyed the eating dinner at Dundee Dell. Lots of English vibes and decor. We had a couple different things to eat with the group I was with, but the winning meal was definitely the fish and chips. The batter was perfectly cooked, and fish was nice and tender.

It had been awhile since I'd been there. It smelled so good as soon as we walked in. The atmosphere is clean and well maintained. The waitress was prompt with the menus and drink orders. I had the grilled cheese and creamy tomato soup. It is listed as an appetizer but is plenty as a meal. My Dad had the fish and "chips " which are actually French fries. The fish is cod. We both were very satisfied with the meals, service and atmosphere. read more

I came here with a lady friend a few weeks ago. The service was a little off as I sat down and waited for a little while to get someone to notice me to put in an order. Even after asking for a whiskey menu, the guy apparently forgot about it and I had to go up to the bar to ask for a menu. After all of that was over, a server finally came over and we put in our drink and food orders. I had a glass of whiskey and a cocktail. Both were good. I also ordered the Cottage Pie and the Fish n' Chips. Both were awesome. The initial service was pretty bad but improved as the night went on. read more

Dundee Dell is a staple in Omaha and I am thankful they found new ownership, instead of closing, in 2021. It has been quite a while since I stopped in, but since the place has been around since the 1930s, I figure time is on my side :-) The menu is nice selection of American and British pub fare as well as some creative cocktails. I knew before stopping in I would be ordering the beeswax Old Fashioned. I prefer bourbon, but the scotch was a nice change of pace. Most of the entrees and apps are on the heavier side, but delicious and satisfying. I loved my Big Easy sandwich and would probably opt for something like that as opposed to fish n'chips, which I know they are known for. There seemed to be one waitress taking care of the entire restaurant, but you can't fault a place for being short-staffed these days. Dundee Dell still had a good crowd on a Tuesday night so happy to see them doing well! read more

In the words of Carol Anne, "They're back"! Nice refresh of the bar and dining area. A lot more open and brighter. Of course the obligatory order of fish is a given.
