Samosas and Tea Leaf Salad
Amber N.

This is one of the very best restaurants in Lincoln. The food speaks for itself. It is delicious, fresh. Beautifully presented and full of flavor. For mouthwatering dishes you won't find anywhere else in town, go to High Peak!

Menu 4/25
Katherine A.

We stopped in for lunch because of the great reviews. The restaurant is located in a strip mall. There are about a dozen tables inside with a rather nondescript decor. There was one server who was friendly and attentive. The menu offers a blend of Asian foods with a Burmese twist. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time. We were the only ones dining in. I had the Tom Yum soup with chicken. The soup was warm and flavorful, I could taste the lemon grass. The chicken was really dry, however. I had ordered the Jasmine rice, but he brought out the coconut rice which was too sweet for me. My husband had the Burmese Pad Thai. The Pad Thai was ok with a lot of noodles.

Mango tofu

This can only be defined as a dive. The decor is actually a little off putting. However, the food is very good. We have experienced the mango tofu and the eggplant with garlic. We ordered the coconut rice as the accompaniment. We also tried the samosas. The dishes were quite tasty. They can adjust the degree of spice based on your preference. We hope to explore more of the menu in the future.

Chicken coconut noodle soup

We loved High Peak in Omaha, so when I learned it was closed, I was pretty bummed. All of my family had been able to try it including my mom, uncle, aunt, and grandma, and they all had enjoyed the unique Burmese cuisine that is not commonly found in the midwest. Eric R. and I recently visited my grandma to check on her in the pandemic, and on the way back, we decided to stop for dinner in Lincoln. I did a quick yelp search and realized that High Peak had reopened in Lincoln, and was not a far drive from our stop at Trader Joe's. The menu was comfortably familiar as I recognized all of the dishes we had tried in Omaha. I ordered eggplant, and Eric R. got a chicken curry noodle soup. We enjoyed our dishes, which fueled us for the remainder of the drive back to Kansas. There is an extensive menu, but the one thing I am sad about is that the sizzling shrimp appetizer was sold out/unavailable, which was the same case every time I went here in Omaha. I hope one day I will actually get to try this popular appetizer!

51. Burmese Pad Thai - with Chicken
Chris F.

Had the Burmese Pad Thai with Chicken and it was amazing. Def would have done more spice next time. The 1 was natural but tasty. Tried someone's beef at 5 and it had a nice lingering heat to it. Tried the spring rolls and they were odd without the peanut sauce. Would definitely go back to try the other pad thai meals.

Sesame beef
Eric M.

l've always wanted to try Burmese food and was super excited to find this spot in Lincoln. I've heard Burmese is a combination of Indian & Thai flavors, both of which I love- due to geography. I chose chicken kebat, which is an awesome spin on chicken tikka masala, along with Sesame Beef. Sesame beef seemed more like Mongolian, which makes sense. Both were awesome and unique. Highly recommend this place. great food and value.

Sprig 1. Four Piece Egg Rolls
Solomon H.

An ample portion of entree & good value for the price. Just like anywhere else right now the wait time is awhile since Covid. I like the variety of option on the menu & the level of spiciness. Give this place a try at least a couple times! I have been going there at least every other week to try other dishes. Usually I have a fiery lamb with spicy level of 9 - the right amount of spice for me. Enough lamb morsels with some firm tofu, green beans & bell peppers.

Spicy shrimp
R. S.

Good food, good service and a casual ambiance perfect to eat there or take home. Don't know what to order just pick or use your favorite number and choose that item. Enjoy

They dont have all drinks on the menu and the menu is not updated. They did tell us what was not available but was a generic dont have these and just slid his fingers on the menu. I finally got an iced lemon tea. We initially ordered egg rolls and a hot pot. We ordered spicy soup together with bok choy fungus( wood ear mushrooms) Beef, spam, fishballs and jumbo shrimp and egg noodles with a side of white rice. The soup came with a burner and it wasnt powerful enough to boil the soup on the pot. The pot had no definite style to it. Tasted like soy bean soup with some sichuan peppers. Not excessively spicy and not very flavourful. Our ingredients took a long while to come out- and our egg rolls eventually never came. Practically all the ingredients were frozen with the exception of the fungi and the egg noodles. The sauce station looks thrown together with takeout containers and plenty of sauce. The bbq sauce had part of a spoon which was broken off in the sauce. The sauces are similar to haidilao type just not as fresh. But the chives looked a little greyish. Overall, service is not fantastic. We did remind them multiple times about the egg rolls, but it still didn't ever arrive. They at least took it off the bill. We forgot to check about the missing bakchoy. Not sure we will be back anytime soon. Hubby wasn't quite happy with our dinner last night.

This is a local business with authentic southern (mostly Cajun and maybe some Creole?) food. The…read morefood is absolutely fantastic and has the feel of coming straight out of a relative's kitchen in Louisiana. I've tried the majority of the dishes at this point and loved them all. There are a few things to note, though. This isn't health food, but it's not meant to be! It's comfort food. A number of dishes tend to be on the salty side (and there is some variation), but never too salty for me. For some that have lower salt diets, though, it may be a bit much. The portions are large, and when you factor in that many come with a side and cornbread, it usually means two meals from one order for me. This is a family run restaurant and the atmosphere reflects that - everyone is nice and familiar with each other. Depending on how many people are working and how busy it is, it may take a minute before your order gets taken. And it's not fast food, so plan to spend a little time waiting while your order is cooked. You can alleviate that somewhat by calling in an order or using their website. There's usually a special of the day that knocks a couple bucks off the price of that dish. Everything I've tried has been great and well-cooked. It doesn't seem possible to go wrong with anything on the menu. I will point out that, for me, these are currently the best wings in town (triple heat is my favorite, but they're all worth trying).

I stopped in for dinner about an hour before closing. The owner is a friend of a friend and I…read morepromised to stop in the next time I spent time in Lincoln for work. The food is OUTSTANDING and pretty much made to order. This means you should take your time while you're here. But the food is worth any wait! I ordered Cajun Alfredo with chicken. The owner came back and confirmed I get up to 2 meats so I added sausage as well. The flavor is perfect and not overly spicy. Not only did I get a large portion, but it also came with a side!! He recommended the greens and they did not disappoint. Do be cautious of you order greens though, I did pull out some bones from my portion, which only solidifies to me that they were done right. And the cornbread was also just as flavorful as the rest of the meal. When cornbread is done right, it could be a delicacy. Definitely plan to return and try other items on the menu any time I'm in town. If you like Creole and Cajun cuisine, this is an excellent spot.

We were traveling across the country and stopped in Lincoln for the night…read more Our hotel located off the freeway was surrounded by fast food restaurants and I didn't see any type of sit down restaurants in the area. I checked Yelp and found Villa Amore a little over a mile away and the reviews were great. The pictures looked a little fancy so we were concerned we would be undressed as we were in our travel clothes but we noticed they had a bar so we would be okay. We drove up and saw the restaurant is attached to a small hotel. We walked in and although the restaurant has white table cloths and nicely appointed, everyone was very casual so don't be concerned about being underdressed. It isn't as fancy as the pictures look but it is a nice restaurant. We sat at the bar which was perfect for us. There is plenty of additional seating in the bar area or you can sit in the dining area. The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. Dre took our order and another female bartender attended to us as well. She was professional and nice as well. We sat down and ordered drinks. Dre brought a basket of bread with olive oil dipping sauce and butter. The bread was warm and crispy. We ordered the Chicken & Sausage $18.00/Chicken$18.00/Sausage$20.00/Both. Sautéed in a creamy brandy sauce over penne pasta. The pasta was cooked well. Chicken and sausage were tender and flavorful. The sauce was delicious. It was very rich. The dish also came with a salad which was refreshing. The ranch dressing tasted homemade. Very good. We also ordered a 12" thin crust pizza. Classic Italian, $14.00. Meatballs, pepperoni, sausage, and mozzarella cheese. Although it was thin crust, I wish it would have been more crispy. The sauce a little too sweet but it was tasty. This restaurant is worth a stop if you are traveling through Lincoln and prefer a nice sit down meal.

Every visit seems to create another unforgettable memory. One of my clients' families especially loved kids' night, and it turned into such a fun and memorable experience for them. As for my own family, we've learned to schedule later dinner reservations because once we're there, it's hard to leave! Some of my sweetest memories are from bringing my mother here while she was still with us. We often ended up being the last ones there at closing because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Kevin and his staff were always incredibly gracious, never making us feel rushed, and consistently treating us like family. That kindness leaves a lasting impression. Reading some of the less-than-positive reviews honestly surprises me because our experience over the years has been consistently wonderful. We've always received excellent service, enjoyed the entertainment, appreciated the comfortable atmosphere and beautiful views from every table, and loved the nostalgia throughout the restaurant and memorabilia. And the food? Absolutely enjoyable every time. Considering the unique experience, atmosphere, entertainment, and very reasonable pricing, I think expectations should be balanced accordingly. Personally, I genuinely enjoy the food here -- often more than at many other restaurants in town. This place is special, and we will continue making memories here for years to come.

As an Elite Yelp Reviewer, I seldom, if ever rate something one star. To achieve that low of a…read morerating the establishment has to miss on every category - food, service,, and the theme or mission of their place (when they have one). Screamers Family Restaurant, unfortunately, forced me to rate them a single star for those very reasons. We wanted to try it as we'd heard from a friend or two that it was good. And to be fair, my harsh review is just "my opinion". The establishment was very busy when we entered with mostly families, many of multiple generations. Our table for our party of four was located near the front, by the check-in and the bar, was two nondescript square tables, pushed together and basic metal chairs with a slight pad on the seat and back. Nothing special, just functional. Our server took a while to appear. Maybe she was "performing". Screamers is a "musical performance restaurant" where the servers take turns grabbing the mic and belting out loud (and not always good) show tunes and songs from the theater performances they've done in their "other job". I expected really good vocals. Only one of four had that. And It was very loud. And that's not something I generally note in my reviews. I believe a loud restaurant is one where people are enjoying themselves. In this case the restaurant was loud because the servers made it so by screaming into the mic...hence the name? Once our server arrived, we ordered appetizers. She raved about their wings, so we went for them. I specifically and carefully explained to her that I wanted 12 wings "naked" with two sauces on the side - BBQ and Buffalo. I also asked for both Ranch and Blue Cheese for dipping. In about 15 minutes what arrived was 12 wings - 6 tossed in BBQ and six in Buffalo with two servings of Ranch on the side. A total miss. I mentioned it to her and she said - "Oh, I'm sorry about that." - and then exited. I was dumbfounded. In two minutes she was "screaming" into the mic. I wondered....is she here to serve or sing? She seems unable to do both. With atmosphere, service, and theme covered - let's get to the food. We ordered two grilled salmon, "Prime" rib, and meatloaf. The salmon was overdone, but looked good. The potatoes and fries served with each were acceptable. The "Prime" rib was a tough piece of beef rib that was almost inedible. My order - their "famous" meatloaf was not good at all. First of all, it was sliced into rectangular medallions that were then microwaved and topped with a fairly tasteless tomato sauce. This is the first time I've EVER had meatloaf that was sliced, reheated and then covered to the point of no recognition with sauce...at least place it under the broiler and sear the sauce to the top! Now with all of this said, I'm sure the owners of Screamers are good people with great hopes and intentions. And the reviews we've heard from others were that the place was good. So maybe I experienced the perfect storm...or maybe my expectations are just too high and others have much lower expectations and are happy here. But my belief is that I need to be honest in my opinion. I worked in a steakhouse in my college years. Met my wife there. I'm a foodie and I love trying new restaurants. I tried Screamers Family Restaurant and I don't think I'll try it again. It was a rare "One-Star" for me. You may feel differently if you try it. To each his own.

Just flew home from a trip and didnt feel like cooking…read more Husband brought me there for dinner. We made a reservation at 630 for 7 pm and we made it there in time We were seated promptly after glases were placed at the table we were to be seated at. Ambiance was upscale. Dimmed dining room- suitable for a romantic night. But we also noticed a lot of families as well. In the middle of the dining room I noticed a little tree-like ornament. It looked very pretty and added to the ambiance. Hubby ordered a beer whilst I ordered a rainbow sherbet margarita. Drinks came pretty quickly. My drink looked very pretty- Its more tart than expected and im ok with that. There was also a strong raspberry taste though no raspberries in sight. So if you're not comfortable with tart drinks please avoid this drink. I ordered duck on the specials menu that came with green beans and sweet potato mash and my hubby ordered steak with onion strings and mac and cheese. Food took some time to come. Presentation was beautiful for my duck. Flavour was good for the duck. But even the pictures I attached showed that one part of the duck was undercooked. The other side was a tad overcooked but edible. The undercooked part cannot be cut even with a steak knife. The beans and the sweet potato mash was cooked well. Otherwise. It was good. They took it off our overall bill though. That was really nice of them. We then ordered desserts. I got a berry tiramisu, and hubby got the chocolate cherry manhattan. My tiramisu was good. Could be a little less sweet- as mentioned earlier i like tart-ish stuff. But it was still light and fluffy. Hubby's chocolate cherry manhattan was a little strong. But could be improved with a better balanced taste profile. We had a wonderful experience despite the slightly undercooked duck. Appreciate our young server very much. She was an absolute delight. And apologies to her- we forgot her name. She made a potentially bad experience a good one. We will be back.
