    banana bread latte - 10/10!!
    Linden D.

    what an incredible spot!! Not only is it absolutely beautiful but everything they have seems to only get raving reviews! I really hope more and more people find out about this gorgeous little spot and keep it busy! They have a stunning patio with greenery and stringed lights that make it feel like you're hidden in a new york nook. Everyone is so friendly and they really take their time to make your food/drink so that it is just right. My sister got the banana bread latte and it was DELICIOUS! The coffee was pulled perfectly and went down like butter along with the brilliant way they mixed the flavors to absolutely nail the "banana bread" taste. We will most definitely be back!

    SUCH a good spot for Mexican food! The inside is adorable and there's plenty of seating. Staff are super friendly :) The Quesa Birria Tacos were 10/10. I highly suggest trying them. Honestly a lot looked good... I will be back for breakfast soon! The breakfast menu looked amazing!

    Finally tried out this new place for brunch! Got seated right away and service was great. Tried the banana bread latte which was quite good! It has fresh banana chunks in it and lots of cinnamon- yum! It was a tad too sweet for me but otherwise solid. Also tried the breakfast burrito and skillet which were both very flavorful. Is conveniently located downtown so would definitely come back, especially on a nice day!

    There was a clash between food quality and experience at this weekend's lunch, as an unmotivated, unfocused pair of staff members diluted a terrific dining experience. Located at the edge of the Old Market, it's aided by an adjacent paid parking lot and has a nice interior. Specializing in Mexican food, they have a large menu, and the recommendation we received to eat there was spot on. Our server was terrific, kind, and professional. But we witnessed a pair of staff members effectively check out and spend about 20 minutes casually eating their lunch and assembling silverware while the restaurant was crowded. Their lack of contribution bogged down the experience, slowing everything to an inexcusable halt. We did not receive our chips and salsa, and it took a while to get our drink and have our order taken due to the overall energy level. Our entrees were outstanding - that was the only reason I gave this place three stars. I hope their staff takes more pride in their roles, and treats their customers with the level of service and energy deserving of people who visit.

    We really loved coming out here for National Margarita day! We started with a half corn half flour basket of chips and salsa. I loved the flour and my wife loved the corn. The salsa was very flavorful and I wish we had more but the chips were also very filling! I had a giant taco, and I didn't expect it to be so large but it was AMAZING!!! I was able to take half home and I'm usually someone that's able to finish the whole meal. I did have to drop the stars to only four because the service was verrrrry slow for only having a handful of people here. We definitely will be coming back again, because it was delicious!

    Flora Cafe serves delicious authentic Mexican and a cute girly ambience that is perfect for a beautiful brunch vibe! The interior is gorgeous, and every detail adds to the experience, down to the tazas de barro and lush greenery. The restaurant has lots of natural lighting from all angles, and plentiful seating. Every time I am here, there is a wait time, so I would recommend calling ahead for a reservation, especially on weekends. It can be a little uncomfortable waiting as they have no central seating for guests, and you can't necessarily walk outside in the meantime since there isn't a text "waitlist" that I know of. The wait however, is worth it. The food is delicious and servings are large! I love their coffee menu, and their Horchata latte was delicious! I got it iced, and it was the absolute best. I ordered the chilaquiles verdes and the serving was huge, enough that I was able to eat the rest for dinner. The menu is plentiful and full of variety, whether you're leaning towards more of a breakfast or a lunch vibe. I have never been disappointed with the food here, and it always is orchestrated immaculately, providing an experience for all the senses.

    This place is SO lovely!! I highly HIGHLYYYY recommend supporting them during this insane instruction that's happening downtown! The food was SO GREAT!!!!!!!! AMAZING! I got the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso (iced) and the PAN A LAFRANCESA. The blueberry compote was such a great flavor to mix with the cinnamon and ice cream! The service was great, she was very attentive and sweet! Our food was out quick and I am excited to go back!

    Chilaquiles
    Randy C.

    This a good place to go if you are looking for some good Mexican breakfast! The service was ok since the waiter took long to get our order but after it was place the food came out fast. It's a chill place with a very chill atmosphere. I got the chilaquiles which were full of flavor with a coffee. My wife got a breakfast sandwich and she said it taste really good. Overall I would recommend and planning on going back.

    Such a great meal here on a Friday night! Worth making the trek from anywhere in town, and anticipate coming back ASAP because the menu was extensive, the service was friendly and I can't wait to hang out on the patio this spring!

    Cheese enchiladas far - pork tamale, chicken soft taco and barria street taco in for ground.

    Cute newish place that we finally got around to trying. Seated quickly but had to wait about 5 minutes for a server even though it was early dinner. Food was fresh and authentic, although the vegetarian food was a bit on the bland side. Portions were generous. Unsure if I'd do again. Not bad but not fantastic.

    Cantarito
    Michelle M.

    Great food and drinks! We came on Sunday for national margarita day. I saw on their socials they had a special, $8.99 for a margarita flight. It was so worth making the trek downtown! I could choose from any of their margarita flavors, so I chose Jamaica (hibiscus), mango, strawberry, and their house lime all with salt rims and lime wedges. The lime was my fave! I opted to get the birria tacos and was SO glad I did! They're everything I was expecting of birria, plenty of cheese and a great consommé. We also ordered chips and salsa to start, mixed flour and corn chips. I preferred the corn, but they were kind of hard. The salsa was incredible, plenty of chunks of fresh tomatoes and peppers, it was nice and spicy! We also ordered a couple cantaritos, which I can't wait to have again. They were fresh, authentic, and I loved the gorgeous mug gave me concha vibes. The only bummer was the service was pretty slow. They were about half full, so I wasn't sure why it was so slow. It didn't mess up the experience for me, but it did for my husband. We had to wait probably 15 minutes or so for our margaritas, and she forgot to bring our water until after we got our food. It was a little irritating we waited so long, but the drinks were really good in the end.

    Located right next to the Gene Leahy mall this is a popping spot and even have some outdoor seating options. They are still open with all of the construction and not hard to get to! (parking is going to take some patience). First time checking this spot out and the vibes are CUTEEE! I'm excited to try out breakfast here. I couldn't find a menu online but it looked like pumpkin pancakes (at a Mexican joint?! I'm in!). They serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, and have a cafe for all your coffee needs. Most of the entrees are probably 1-2 servings so come hungry or be ready for leftovers. Vegetarians, they have a few options without meat or you can ask for a lot of items without meat. I got the giant burrito minus the meat and it was HUGE! The star of the show was the chips and salsa. You can get corn, flour, or a mix of both. I'm a big fan of their flour tortillas. The salsa was flavorful and the overall it was a great value!

    Don't let the streetcar construction out front keep you from visiting Flora Portions were generous, flavors were luscious and layered, and service was attentive at this new restaurant across the street from Leahy mall. We enjoyed the chips and queso, fundido, chimichanga and barria tacos. The bar is stocked mostly for margaritas, which is not unreasonable. There's plenty of parking as long as long as you are willing to look past the front door.

    I wrote this on my Facebook about my experience while traveling from California:…read more Today I was at a super cute café and ordered breakfast. After a couple of minutes, I went back up to the counter and asked if they had already started making it, because I wanted to change my order. The kitchen was open, so I said to the cook, "Don't worry about it if you've already started. I know my indecision can impact people, and I don't want to be a problem." He looked at me and said, "No, it's totally fine. Would you like some veggies on the side?" "Yes, that would be amazing," I said, and walked back to my table... and burst into tears. It wasn't just what he said. It was the kind energy in his eyes. I felt someone who took pride in what he was making, and who genuinely wanted people to be happy. I found myself asking, why am I crying? Because in a world where so many people in power feel disconnected, where corporations can make us feel like numbers, being genuinely cared for in a small café reminded me how much I love humans. Most people have love in their hearts and are trying to share it in their own small ways. As the world cracks, these simple things are more meaningful than ever.

    I've been here 3 or 4 times and I'm always surprised that it's not more crowded. Always space to…read moresit even though it's not a huge place. They have so many menu options, breakfast, lunch and specials. The Whole Bird is an absolute MUST as well as the breakfast sandwich on the biscuit. Their freshly made bread is perfection. I had the grilled eggplant sandwich which was INCREDIBLE. The hummus was especially pleasing. I do always find the popcorn side a little odd, but there's nothing really wrong with it.

I ordered the Orange Spice Tea Latte, and it was absolutely delicious. I loved the zest the orange added, while being milky and having the perfect amount of spice. It was absolutely delicious, and I would return simply for this. I also tried the Chive Biscuit Sandwich, which was a bit dry but otherwise good. The parking situation was not the most ideal, but to be expected in this part of Omaha. I was able to locate a spot but it was a tight squeeze and across on the bridge, but I would come again.

The natural lightning and river views help to create a nice and relaxing space, while still casual enough that you don't feel bad bringing kids in.

In the earlier days, it seemed like some of the menu items were too salty or whatever. But once they got established I have been happy with the experience every time. This is a restaurant attached to a science museum (but it can be entered separately). I go to a lot of museums and this food is miles better than most food you can get at most museums. I like that they offer items from local businesses such as Lola (for baked goods), Grove (juices) and Fermented Felon kombucha. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Windows are huge with a great view of the river. They serve a good iced tea, which can be not so good at other places. Also a nice hot drink selection. I like to go for a walk across the river, then come here and relax with a brownie or a slice of sweet potato cake. There is an entry fee to the museum if you want to go...or you can just meander over to the gift shop for free. It's a really good gift shop, if you are a nerd like me.

    We swung by River's Edge Café inside Prairie Flower Casino for a quick Saturday night bite, and let…read moreme tell you--it totally hit the spot. We wanted our food to-go, and the staff didn't even blink. Everything came neatly packed with utensils, making it super easy to grab and go. Honestly, whether you dine in or take it out, it's all served the same way--do with that what you will. We kicked things off with the chips and queso. The white queso had green chiles and just the right amount of heat, with a side of salsa that made it even better. Were the chips basically Tostitos? Yes. Did I care? Not one bit--they were still delicious. For $7, the portion was generous and perfect for sharing (or not). My husband ordered the Prairie Flower Burger and fries ($15), a double patty blend of ground beef and brisket topped with caramelized onions and your choice of cheese. He polished it off without a single complaint. It was hot, fresh, and exactly what you want in a burger. And the fries? Crispy, golden, and plentiful. I went with the club sandwich and house chips, and wow--that triple-decker meant business. For $12, the value was fantastic. My only tiny complaint? I wish they'd used full lettuce leaves instead of chopped--it got a little messy. But those house chips? Fresh, crispy, and borderline addictive. I'm officially hooked. Bonus points: you get a front-row seat to the casino floor while you wait. It's like dinner with built-in entertainment. Plus, the staff were all friendly and upbeat, which made the whole experience even better. The best part? We live just five minutes away, so everything was still piping hot by the time we got home. Their All Day Menu runs until 11 PM on weekdays and goes all the way until 2 AM on Fridays and Saturdays--perfect for night owls or anyone needing a late-night bite after hitting the slots. If you are a veteran, don't forget to tell them--you will get an extra 10% discount! I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu--and I've already got my eye on breakfast next time.
