    Breakfast Menu - Menu board at Keystone Kafe in Omaha, NE, featuring breakfast combos, sandwiches, bakery items, and sides with prices and descriptions.

    This may be my favorite breakfast place in Omaha. I am in love with the pork belly hash. Seems to always be busy. Service is top notch. Never had to ask for a refill on coffee. Fook came out quickly and hot. One of these days I'll have to try this place for lunch.

    Very good breakfast food. Eggs and hash browns were cooked perfectly! And the blueberry pancakes were also delicious! The meal I ordered came with meat and I asked if I could substitute it for a cup of fruit which they did no problem! Service was pretty good considering they were swamped for a Sunday morning. It did take awhile to be acknowledged when we sat a "we'll be with you shortly" would have been nice just because we felt out of place -- we weren't sure if we were supposed to seat ourselves (you are). Nice place overall.

    Apologies, but the food was great!!!

    You've gotta like a little place (actually not so little) tucked into a strip mall that knows who it is and creates good food delivered with a smile. We tried Keystone Kafe out on a weekend morning, and clearly others thought about coming as well. It was PACKED. Their menu wasn't messy and showy but a straightforward and thorough presentation of what you might be hungering for at breakfast or lunch. Nothing foo-foo, basic American breakfast and several choices from burgers to burritos for lunch. You know what really made us smile? The old-fashioned coffee mugs! LOVED THEM. Thick mugs that warm your hands and keep your coffee/tea hot. It said, "home," to us. Old School, indeed! Eggs were perfect, bacon was meaty and crispy yet tender, hash browns had a nice crunch, no complaints whatsoever (except that there was no orange marmalade) from our table. We've already made plans to return and prices were reasonable to boot. :-)

    The front entrance and main sign

    We have been to the Keystone Kafe three times on the Fox42 Breakfast Tour, with our first visit being in July and our last visit today. The restaurant is located in a small non-descript strip mall in the Keystone area of Omaha off Military Ave. The mall has a large parking lot and there is no signage on Military Ave., so it is relatively easy to miss if you didn't know that it was in a strip mall. Making things more interesting is the fact that if you are westbound on Military, there is a divider that requires you to enter the shopping center from Templeton Dr. on the east side of the strip mall. There is no way that you can see any indication of the Keystone Kafe before you have to turn on to Templeton Dr. We have found it to be a small and very friendly restaurant, where many customers are repeat customers and know the staff. When you walk in, you choose your own seating, no formal "Wait To Be Seated" here, the waitress will find you very quickly with a welcoming "Good Morning, would you like some coffee?" The Fox42 Breakfast Tour has a Prix Fixe Menu, in the case of the Keystone Kafe, it was either their Potato Casseroles or Omelets: Ham/Broccoli/Onion, 3 meat-Ham/Bacon/Sausage, Mexican-Chorizo/Chili/Cheese. During our visits we had the 3 meat-Ham/Bacon/Sausage, Mexican-Chorizo/Chili/Cheese Omelets. During all visits the food was prepared consistently, as shown by the associated pictures. Come hungry, because you get your money's worth in food and it tastes good too. I think this is a restaurant that we will be returning to, even without the tour card.

    Beware of the biscuits and gravy. The pale lumps in the gravy are roux, not sausage, with entirely too much pepper. Friendly staff.

We said first available seats, which ended up being at the end of the bar. More about that later... I ordered the vegan standard and hubs ordered the banana bread French toast. The server was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner, considering the place was packed. Regarding the vegan standard, it seems they have cut back on the amount of tofu scramble and increased the amount of hashbrowns, which was a little bit disappointing. As usual it was very tasty though! I tried a bite of the hubs French toast and it was VERY unique and tasty! II will be getting that next time. I was disappointed to hear that they haven't brought back the vegan biscuits and gravy, but maybe once again they will! So the food was great but our experience, not so much, based on where we were sitting. I feel like they should not even use the last spot at the bar to seat a patron. Right next to where I was sitting is the place they bring the clean silverware to dry it off, then they would toss it into the silverware holder. The noise was very annoying and they did nothing to try to even be quiet about it. The other thing about that location is the register is pretty much right in your face, like 15 inches directly in front of me and someone was pretty much there the whole time. Other areas of the bar wouldn't be quite so bad, but next time we will wait longer to get a table or sit at the bar top that looks outside instead of at all the workers doing their thing and talking to each other. Other than the location of where we sat this visit, this is still one of our top spots for a yummy vegan breakfast, and we will be back!

Our waitress was polite but mostly absent, no energy and was sitting chatting with coworkers for an extended period of time without checking on us. She didn't come to refill our drinks until all of us had finished eating and we were waiting on our check, so at that point refill wasn't really needed because we were leaving. The food was all clean ingredients but with an unfortunately serious lack of any flavor. I ordered the Avocado Toast which was supposed to have a Chipotle Mayo, couldn't taste it or find it, bread was cold and didn't taste like it was remotely toasted. No seasoning on any part of the dish which was underwhelming. Definitely not worth buying this when this could be made easily at home and taste the exact same, if not better. There are other things on the menu I'd be interested in trying so if I do have a chance to try this place again and have a different experience I will absolutely update my review. This isn't a bad establishment by any means but definitely room for improvement.

We ordered the fried green tomatoes as well which were tasty and crunchy, they came with tasty goat cheese and some sauce, while I do wish there was a bit more sauce it was still a great choice.

The vanilla latte was made iced with oat milk and it was just sweet enough, something about the espresso beans just made it all blend together so well!! The chai was house made and it was SO great, like Christmas in a mug, just phenomenal. The food is different from other breakfast spots around Omaha. The croque miss was the breakfast sandwich special and it blew all other sandwiches out of the water. Thick bread, Dijon mustard, ham, and topped with 2 eggs! WOWOWOWOWOOWOW!! It was so complex and the flavors blended so well together! The only thing I wish there was more of was ham, just one more slice would have been great! The brioche French toast was thick, fluffy, and sweet. I loved the cranberries on top, another dish with great complementing flavors.

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.
