    This place is great really good breakfast great customer service and good vibes all around. I went to get take out cause nothing feels as good as eating at home. So I had to try all 3 breakfast foods. The customer service was on point. Very welcoming even tho it was very busy overall best experience I've had.

    I was excited to get here this morning with my daughter. Parking was easy and not a long wait even though they're always busy. Staff is so pleasant here and the manager works hard and loves his store! This location is smaller and the tables are so close to each other, but we had a beautiful Traditional breakfast and Purple Haze. We definitely started with the blueberry cornbread. Do not leave without trying this. We had a really nice breakfast! Thank you First Watch! The stickers and additional $5 off for future visits was a surprising treat!

    First Watch is a staple for us because it's so reliable. The service is always good, food is consistently delicious, and I appreciate the "Get in Line" option on their app. Because of these reasons, First Watch has been a spot we have regularly visited over the years.

    First Watch is my favorite national breakfast chain. I'm personally obsessed with their egg white omelettes and the thick, hearty toast they serve. The potatoes are also delicious and hearty. I like how many healthier options they have. They leave me feeling fresh and energized rather than bogged down like some more greasy breakfast places can do. My mom loved her pumpkin pancakes, which were a seasonal fall option. She said they were fluffy and delicious. I have special memories at First Watch through the years and this location was excellent like the others. I find service and taste really consistent between locations of this chain. The decor is warm and calming with blues and browns in the palette. Note- it can get super crowded around lunch time on the weekends, so factor that in!

    Overall decent breakfast place! They have a variety of options of the menu. I had the cinnamon chip pancake breakfast, which also came with 2 eggs any style and meat option of bacon or sausage. I was happy that they had both turkey and chicken sausage available as I do not eat red meat. Scrambled eggs were creamy and delicious. The pancake was very large. Although, I liked the crunch of the cinnamon chip, I felt like it was too sweet in general - even without adding any syrup on top.

    We had a great experience on Mother's Day. Service was great and we enjoyed what we ordered. Our server was really kind and pretty attentive. This location of first watch is always great.

    We were looking for a new breakfast place to try and First Watch was the closest. We were greeted with a smile when we walked in and were seated right away. It was busy today but it wasn't overly noisy and there were plenty of places to sit. Our waitress was super nice and gave us some great recommendations from the menu. We started with the Salted Caramel Donut Holes. Holy cow, they were delicious!! Needless to say there weren't any left . I had the Bacado omelette with the Million Dollar seasoned potatoes. It was all really good! We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

    Original Pancakes, scrambled eggs and chicken sausage
    Denise W.

    One of my favorite breakfast spots. The customer service is top tier every time I go no matter the location they all give you a good experience. Normally there is plenty of parking. The food is pretty good and the servers are really good with sending things you don't like back. I ordered the pancakes and chicken sausage with eggs I wanted a simple breakfast this particular day. I won't suggest you buy any alcoholic drinks here they don't seem to have good alcohol but the juice drinks are very good.

    million dollar potatoes
    Ciera B.

    we joined the waitlist online and our party of 4 got seated in under 10 mins during the busy hour. we ordered two trifectas and two BLTEs with different sides. someone tried the new million dollar potatoes and they were so yummy! i wish the BLTE would've came with avocado and probably an unpopular opinion but the waffle was much better than the pancake. lots of seating variety, good food, and great service!

    Mint mocha

    Great mint mocha coffee as usual! Love the food - always to crave for! Ordered the usual farmhouse skillet - parm this time, I believe? Service is always really nice, and the ambiance is usually positive, and calls for reunions, family gatherings, and birthday celebrations!

    Everett's - Medium Hot Wings

    $$

    Everett's is a solid ten! At least that's what I would give them if I could. We had heard about…read morethem and were very excited to try. I'm sure everything on the menu is good, but we came here for wings and boy did they deliver. The house brined wings are Fantastic. We did the extra hot bubba, which is their extra hot sauce fried then grilled In garlic Parmesan, which was so juicy and flavorful and kicked the heat to a perfect amount where it was flavorful but not overbearing. We also did the cactus ranch, which is the medium hot sauce tossed with cactus ranch seasoning, also tried it grilled. Another solid selection that provided a nice amount of heat and flavor. Both were so amazing I can't even say which one I liked more or which one was hotter. The wings are huge, juicy, and came out well-sauced. I filled up after five of mine (my husband tackled them all) and took the rest home. I don't know how to say best wings in Omaha, since I don't live there and haven't tried enough places, but these were some of the best wings we have EVER had, period. And we get wings almost everywhere we go. Also---the hand-cut (you heard me) fries aren't to be passed up on. We tried with the garlic aoili, so good, and a huge basket for $6. Our server was great. They are always busy, so give them some grace. We came during late lunch, got lucky and got seated right away, and it was still a revolving door of people, tables don't sit empty for long. They don't take reservations, and I understand why. They have limited space and when full, you sign up on the Board, there is a bar next door you can also receive a buzzer and go have a few drinks while you wait. This place is definitely worth the wait and we will repeatedly be back when we make it up to Omaha.

In addition, our server Laura was great -- friendly, efficient, came back to check on us, refilled water glasses, prompt with the food and with our bill. The atmosphere was just ok. Some eclectic posters adorned the walls. There were a couple of large tv screens tuned to a sports channel. Interior seemed a bit dark for a sunny mid-afternoon. But the food! My wife & I shared a BBQ Pulled Pork and Bacon Burger with a side of Branding Potatoes plus a Fry Basket option #3 (asian). Each item was totally delicious -- amazing blends of flavors! I cannot give enough praise. Some creative genius (maybe several of them) was involved in cooking up this kind of flavorful delight! Highly recommend!!

You will want to bring your camera with…read moreyou, even if you're not normally a food photog, because the ambiance and food are made for the perfect pics! My husband and I first visited Memoir for our anniversary, and it was such an awesome experience, especially for a special occasion like that. After we were done doing all of our (admittedly annoying) photography of the awesome ambiance, we finally sat down to order and eat - and the original amazingness didn't stop there! The menu is not gigantic, which I always appreciate - because I get overwhelmed by too many choices. We picked a few things to share, at the recommendation of our server (who was also amazing and made sure we had a great anniversary dinner). They even gave us a card signed by the staff wishing us a great anniversary! Those little extra touches are what really make a dining experience special. We had the Kale and Bacon Dip for an appetizer, which was DECADENTLY delicious. The dip was smooth and silky with a toasty focaccia which went really well together with the two different textures. And we also grabbed the Pork Potstickers, and my oh my, were those fantastic. Delicate potsticker wrapper, with tons of filling, resting in a carrot-ginger dressing that complemented the potsticker fantastically. We were already so pleased, and didn't believe the entrees could top the starters, but they were just as awesome, which should be no surprise. It was easier to share two entrees, because we couldn't decide between two. Our first entree was the Faroe Island Salmon, and it was cooked to perfection, and served atop an indulgent bed of sweet corn risotto that I still dreeeeam about. And our second entree was the Rigatoni Alla Vodka, which was a little lighter of a meal, so was great paired with the salmon dish which was a tad heavier. I would recommend either of these dishes! We were SO full at this point but we knew we had to get a dessert since this was a special occasion. We shared the chocolate torte and devoured it, even with our extreme fullness. It was so fluffy and chocolatey and DELISH. From start to finish, this was one of the best meals I've had in Omaha. The service was on point, the eats were out of this world, and the vibe of the interior is something to behold. If you're looking for an awesome place to have a special occasion meal or just a nice dinner on a date night, look no further than Memoir for all of the above!

Seated within 15 minutes so not bad at all. Place is packed. Tables that were seated after us have a server. Hmmm. About 10 minutes after being seated our server shows up. Very nice but hurried. The other tables were asked if it was their first time; talked about the menu for the evening etc. again, not a huge deal. Drinks were great..an old fashioned and a black Manhattan. I'm assuming it was a manager who came over and apologized for the delay in getting our dinners. Again, we let them know we were not in a hurry. We get the craziness of Valentine's Day. But let's get to the food...did they remove all the seasoning from the kitchen??? Our Brussels sprouts were undercooked and little to no flavor. The steaks had absolutely no seasoning and the mashed were like paste. We had to ask for salt and pepper. Why can't they just put it on the table? My prime rib was blood rare which I talked to the server about before I ordered and said I would like medium and he said they could. Oh and no horseradish sauce like it said on the menu. The saving grace was I had the French onion soup which was terrific. Like I said, knowing how crazy it is on Valentine's Day, we expected a wait. But after waiting quite a long time for our food, I think they could've made sure it was cooked and seasoned properly.

I got the crisp martini and my husband got the old fashioned. Both were good but the old fashioned was a little too sweet. For our appetizer we got the shrimp carrot which was super buttery and cheesy. We also split the flat iron steak special. We ordered it medium rare and it was more of a medium well. It was on the salty side and the steak had the same texture as ham or like a school lunch meat....something about it reminded me of a jerky too. It was interesting and didnt taste bad but unlike any steak texture I've ever had. It cost $29 so wasn't expensive for a steak but I guess we should've gone next door to Mahogany Prime if we wanted good steak or even Texas Roadhouse up the way. Even though we were disappointed with the steak we still had a great time. Will def come back and try a salad or the chicken piccata. Based on the steak, I would give the review a 3 but bc everything else was great, leaving it at a 4 bc I think we just ordered the wrong thing.

    I had a very disappointing and concerning experience at this restaurant. I ordered a margarita with…read moreno salt, but it was brought out with a salted rim, and I can see that salt dripped into the drink. I asked for it to be remade. What happened next was unacceptable. I watched the waitress take the drink back to the bar, where the bartender (with his hair parted in the middle) poured the margarita out of and over the salted rim, into a different glass instead of making a new one. That same drink was then brought back to me. This isn't just poor service, it's a serious health and safety concern for me. There is a reason I asked for no salt. Rather than admitting a mistake and correcting it properly, they chose to cut corners and hope I wouldn't notice. If I hadn't seen it happen, I would have unknowingly consumed something I specifically asked to avoid. There were other issues during the visit, but this alone is enough to ensure I won't be returning. Trust is critical when dining out, and unfortunately, this experience showed that it's lacking here.

My wife had the Açaí Cosmo and said it was her favorite cocktail of the last year at least. Fav cosmo ever also. Starters: Dundee Dip which is just cheesy goodness the bread soaks up the oils and was very tasty. The sausage had a really strong flavor which I enjoyed fennel in it I think. The banana peppers gave it a perfect hint of kick/crunch. Mains: Marks signature Mac and cheese which was great and had a really unique flavor this was ordered first and came out quick for the baby which was super nice they accommodated our request. We all loved it. I had the short rib grilled cheese and upgraded to the broccolini. It also came with an amazing herbed horseradish dip that was to die for. Perfect blend with the sandwich. Only ate half and had the other half for lunch the next day and was still very tasty. My wife had the smoked chicken lasagna which she really enjoyed it also had a super unique flavor that was great. They ended up giving us a free dessert for her birthday which we had to take to go as our daughter was acting up and we didn't want to ruin other guests experience. She went with the peach cobbler cheesecake I believe it was called and it was also delicious. They take and box up all the leftovers in the back which I always enjoy and use nice microwave safe containers which makes taking it to work or warming up a breeze. 10/10 all around for service, food quality, and atmosphere. Pricing is fair for the quality and service. Very cute place and the patio looks amazing for the warmer weather on the horizon. We will be back.

The poutine had a lot of beef gravy and cheese curds, which made the dish a comprehensive experience to consume, rather than just fries. The duck duck goose fries were amazing! The duck confit, cheese curds, mayo, gravy, and gooseberry gastrique combination worked super well on top of the fries, because they altogether basically made it a gourmet dish that I had to eat with a fork. Finally, the sloppy nick was seasoned very well, even if we got the vegan version, which used impossible meat instead of ground beef. It was still really great!
