I love coming home and visiting the Keystone Kafe. They have good service and great food with even better prices. I was torn on breakfast or lunch and stumbled on the rooster burger. Hamburger topped with bacon, eggs, and hash browns! I'm never gonna beat the big back allegations. My nephew had pancakes, bacon, and an order of fries. It was all filling and delicious. The restaurant was clean and inviting feeling like a piece of home. We love Keystone Kafe. read more

Very simple and good breakfast. Staff was very nice and attentive. The food also came out very quickly. I would come back again for sure!

Quaint, standard diner fare. Service was friendly and consistent. Food was okay - as others stated the biscuits and gravy were unique- I did not enjoy them - otherwise solid. read more

Keystone Kafe - Breakfast #1 - scrambled hard! - Cafes Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Simple, classic diner food. You may wait for a table but once seated they have a fast turnaround in the kitchen. The bacon did have an unusual off taste on my most recent visit but everything else was the no frills, greasy spoon yumminess we were looking for. read more

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. read more

This place is simple--no frills, straight to the point. I walked in and was seated within seconds. Just as quickly, I had a menu in front of me. Probably the longest time anything took was deciding what to eat (with some help from the lovely staff). After ordering, my food was out almost immediately! The food was good. It's nothing special but it gets the job done. I'd consider a repeat performance if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Great little local diner always great service and always good food. We have been here multiple times and have never had a bad meal or service read more

I haven't been here in almost 5 years, and it was a much better experience! Quick and efficient service. I met my husband for a quick breakfast as we were both in the same area of town between meetings. It was fun, and the traditional breakfast was perfect. Coffee was always full, and I think we'll be back sooner! read more

Gravy for biscuits tasted exactly how it smelled like the sausage was rotten. So my breakfast partner she had gotten a patty melt n fry's and so we split each entree up and she too had the same look on her when she tasted my 1/2 of food so when the waitress came over we both told her something was not rite that it smelled n tasted bad so she said what would u like to replace it I told her a patty melt since that's what my friend ordered n we shared the first one but the 2nd one we asked for a to go box n they brought us one! So that is false info from your waitress! So now I know I won't be coming bk cuz they r lieing on there part! Do what you gotta do to keep your job but with less customers means less money so someone will get cut along the way! read more

Great food and great service. We enjoyed it. Coffee was good also! Food came out quickly

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. read more

Keystone Kafe - Eggs over easy and hash browns - Cafes Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Placed was packed about 8:45am. Found one table in the back. Despite being packed, food came out fast. My husband thought the Salted caramel French toast was fantastic! I had the build a breakfast with eggs over medium (cooked perfect), Turkey sausage (good), and biscuits and gravy. Biscuits and gravy looked spectacular, but the gravy was tasteless. It looks like they grill the biscuit, but imo that step is not needed if you have a good tasting gravy. We will be back. Great, fast,service, hot food, all hard to find these days. read more

Although we've only been there for breakfast, we've tried the sea salt caramel and pecan french toast, the 2 egg and bacon meal, and the breakfast burrito with avacado and jalapeno cream cheese. We've been here many more times, but we've always ordered the same 3 things because they are so wonderfully great! This place has great service, never had to look for a coffee refill and has the ambience of an oldtime diner! Love it and will certainly return many more times in the future!! We certainly should try lunch! read more

Great place! Food is fantastic and the service is fast Really nice and cozy, we recommend this place for sure! read more

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

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. :-) read more

Keystone Kafe - Apologies, but the food was great!!! - Cafes Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

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. read more

My wife and like to try new places, found this place on Yelp. This place is bad. We went there on a Saturday morning, got the menu our drinks, then sat there for over 10 minutes without any service. The table behind us got coffee twice. We got up and left. They were not very friendly at all. I would not recommend the place to anyone. We'll never try it again. This weekend we will try another place. read more

Love the food. Always great to support neighborhood business. 10 others here for breakfast. NO MASKS except Staff! Booths not distanced . Mandate sign on door ... Food NOT worth DYING FOR! See ya after COVID !!!! read more

First time realizing it was there and walking over to this spot for breakfast. Will definitely be our regular spot now. Fantastic breakfast burritos! read more

Great breakfast for reasonable cost. When I went on a Saturday morning at about 7:30, there was a table of 10 in progress and a few other patrons dining. I took the only booth available that had been cleared of dishes but unfortunately, the table wasn't very clean (no food pictures this time around). The waitress immediately announced that she was the only one working, but she was quick to get my order in (delivered by the cook) and got my cup of coffee poured. Another waitress didn't come in until shortly before I left about 1 hour later. All in all, the food was as expected, and while I wished I could've gotten a refill on my coffee, I cannot blame this as a service deficit given the fact only one person was working to take the orders, serve, and process checks on a busy Saturday. read more

Excellent as always.food came out fast and hot! Service was great too considering she was manning all tables by herself. #supportlocal read more

Keystone Kafe - Keystone Combo - Cafes Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I don't really know how to describe this place. It seems awkwardly located in a strip mall so unless you know about the place you wouldn't expect it to be where it is. I just had pancakes, hash browns bacon and coffee. It wasn't really anything i couldn't do at home. If you're in he mood to get out and let someone else cook breakfast, this is a good place to go. Decent food, cheap prices and it smells like a grandmas kitchen....vinyl and moth balls. Yum. read more

Super friendly approached and helped quickly

We found this Kafe a while back, and have been telling our friends about it ever since. Not only are the prices "reasonable", but the food is "Awesome", always hot, tasty and a generous amount. If the entrance room looks full, go on in anyway, as they have another room to the right. They are "family" owned, and I don't know about you, but those are the kind "I prefer" to support!!!!! read more

Service was good; very nice and responsive waitress. Breakfast and coffee with good taste. However, their "World's Best Waffle" is better described as "Plain Jane" waffle. read more

What can I say? I'm blessed to have this gem just a few blocks away. We come here frequently, sometimes it's a table for 2, sometimes it's a table of 10. They are always friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. The hardest part is deciding which of their entrees to choose. I think I've probably tried them all! read more

My favorite breakfast spot of all time. They have the best chicken fried steak and biscuits and gravy to date. My fiancé says their caramel pecan rolls are the best he has had as well. I have tried several things and enjoyed them all. Service is excellent and they are super friendly and enjoyable to chat with. Love this place! read more

Excellent food and good quality and great pricing!!! First timer will return for sure!!!!

Amazing bacon, perfectly cooked golden brown, perfectly to my taste and generous slices to boot! My friend and I could not stop marveling at our servings of bacon. Honestly, I've never had better bacon anywhere! They either overcook tiny wimpy pieces or partly cooked them at other restaurants. The hash browns were cooked crispy on the outside and buttery soft on the inside, I crave them as I speak. Next time I go back I want to try their omelettes. The wait staff was and attentive in spite of the place being crowded. Servings were perfect and it's a neighborhood treasure. Can't wait to go back. read more

Really enjoyed the French Toast this morning. Our server Kali was a delight. A nice, comfortable, homey place. The food was good and the atmosphere was pleasant. We'll be back! read more

Great breakfast and friendly and accommodating staff! Smothered hash browns and pecan rolls are some highlights!

Amazinggggggg. Such a hole in the wall spot-my favorite kinds of places. Everything was super cheap and seriously so tasty. We usually eat at AJ's but I think Keystone just beat's it a tiny bit. Try the daily specials!! read more

While I understand and respect that Shayne Fili and Mark Beacom are really trying to breathe life into the Keystone area, this café just fell short for us. My husband and I also wondered if they are owners/co-owners of this café, as they run the auctions and flea market venue. The interior is everything that you would expect in a small café. The problem for us, essentially, was the price and the portions. I got some hash brown concoction that was not sized proportionally for it being over $8.00. I don't think that the cinnamon rolls are made on-site, as they looked pre-made. My husband was disappointed that the potato casserole was not listed as being sliced potato's, not that it is a big deal, as I pointed out: there really was no description at all. Our bill was around $30 for breakfast, which seemed unreasonable for a breakfast joint. After we got done eating, our server was sitting at a table by the kitchen and, while she was sweet and nice, didn't pre-bus until I was already up at the register paying. I kind of hoped that she would've pre-bussed earlier than that. That is kind of the standard server procedure, but I also have to remember that she may have gotten there early that morning and was simply tired. This is what gives the low start rating. After we left, just getting into the car, I notice a real funky taste left in my mouth. Like a cleaning chemical taste. I wondered if there was some residue left in my coffee cup. It was definitely the deal breaker. I have continued to wonder all week what the hell was in the cup. I love small businesses, and I love a good breakfast joint, but this one is more for the Keystone area people. I will not be back. read more

Walked in and were immediately greeted by Mary and felt like I was walking into the kitchen at home. Clean place, comfortable, and good crowd. Food: We had the veggie omelet special, and a breakfast burrito. Both were served hot, not too large of a portion, just right. Presentation was excellent, and the omelet was homemade. Veggies were tasty and still had a bit of raw left in them, which I like. Burrito was great, and the salsa seemed homemade as well. Price: $20 for two people including coffee...oh yeah, and a complimentary taste of cake for everyone in the cafe. Which by the way was also delicious. Service: Perfect. read more

Great local diner. Staff is THE BEST. Personal favorites: smothered hash browns, BLT salad, French fries, World's Best Waffle.

This was a perfect little breakfast diner. We had delicious food for a good price and will definitely be back. I highly recommend making the drive and getting a good old fashioned diner feel. read more

Atmosphere was great like a home kitchen. Food was ok like a home kitchen. The place was dirtier than my kitchen and I'm not the cleanest of folks! The wait was terribly long and we never even got one of the items we ordered. Frankly I was quite disappointed after having read the good reviews to find this place was not worth the money. :( read more
