    Half of the bar
    Will S.

    Another sports bar for Omaha. Seems like a good fit for North Downtown. Almost as if it's catered specifically for the College World Series crowds. And trust me, this relatively small bar will be jam-packed with people during the CWS. The layout is simple. It has a big, wooden bar, 24 taps and a decent selection of locals and domestics. I enjoyed a giant mug of pilsner for less than $5. That's a good deal. The whiskey selection is decent, but I'd like to see a few more higher end Scotches. No idea if they have any signature cocktails. No drink menus either (maybe they have them but we weren't offered one nor were they sitting on the bar). There are giant Guinness and Jameson murals on either side that are less art and more advertisement. I hope they're getting a bunch of free product for that. In all, a decent addition to the neighborhood. Still, there's nothing very unique or special about Lefty's. But maybe it'll grow into a comfy go-to spot in the future. Either way, they're off to a good start.

We had potato skins with cheddar and bacon as an appetizer. It was tasty but not wonderful. Bookguy had fish and chips. The fish was great, very crispy and light. It was a big portion so leftovers provided dinner later. The fries were a generous size and good too. I had a patty melt on rye with a salad. The salad was pretty standard and I really liked the patty melt-- big enough to take half home and not greasy. It was rather noisy while we were there and they probably could have used another server. We enjoyed our lunch and plan to come back again.

I went with the fish and chips and was blown away by this portion size and flavor! Two HUGE cod filets accompanied by a side of fries, but I went with the onion rings as I heard they were delicious. The cod has a thick, crunchy breading around it, making it very very filling. The onion rings were very unique. Not a long onion deep fried, but small onion pieces within the breading. I've never had something like that before, but they were golden brown and amazingly crunchy. Make sure you get extra tartar sauce for this dish because you're going to need it! Service was quick and easy for a take out order. I would come back for another meal to try their other menu options and drinks. Thanks for a great first impression!

The waiters and waitresses always take very good care of us when we go there. They have plenty of great specials of food and drinks, games for the youngins and my all time favorite BINGO on Saturday nights where they give our gift cards for local restaurants. Never a bad idea to support local! There are so many great items on the menu that its hard to have a favorite and I always find myself getting different items everytime I go there.

The food was good, but that's the only redeeming part of this review. Half of my 6 top came in at 7:30. Decently busy, but the dinner rush is just dying down. By 8:00 there were less than 25 people in the entire building. We sat down. Ordered drinks. 3 waters. Had them within 3 minutes. 5 minutes later I ask to order some apps. The table orders 2 different apps. The rest of the 6 top gets there 7:50. They order apps at 7:55 along with their drinks. 8:05 we all order our meals. 8:15 all of our apps come out at once. Even the original orders that were put in 12-15 minutes before the 2nd orders of apps were put in. And from 8:15 until 8:50 we don't see or hear an update on our food. We all ordered 12 wings and one person ordered a pizza. 3 orderes of fries. And a basket of chips. First thing out is the pizza at 8:50. Then a single basket of fries and basket of chips 8:55. Then a half of one persons wing order, then a random basket of fries at 8:58. The other half order of wings at 9 and by 9:05 the rest of the food was there. Not so much as a sorry it's taking so long. Or a can I get you guys anything? (Except for those who had beer, they kept asking if they wanted more beer) every water refill had to be asked for. Mind you. By 8:45 there were 3 tables left in the entire restaurant, 4 including ours. And they all had thier food and finished before we even seen ours. With 4 wait staff, and atleast 4 in the kitchen. 50 minutes for 60 wings 2/3 baskets of fries a basket of chips and a pizza. And not one single acknowledgment of the unacceptable amount of time. I'm not sure I'll ever go back. Or recommend it to anyone. Extremely disappointed.

We were doing a pub crawl and had a drink at each of the Capitol District bars. I think Annie's would rank probably in the middle somewhere of the places we tried. The ambiance is like a "hole in the wall" style pub with concrete floors and booths like you'd find in Dublin. There's an area at the back with leather chairs, dart boards, and a few board games. I'm not sure if it gets pretty busy at times, but we were the only group of people there when we went, and it seemed rather large and empty. The bartender was a little snippety, but I wasn't sure if this was part of the "schtick" or not, because she wasn't mean or rude, just a little short and hurrying us up to order (humming the Jeopardy theme song when someone was looking at the menu to decide). I took it as funny, so not mad about it or anything. I liked the vibe of the place feeling like you're in Ireland almost, but the cost is a bit expensive for the tiny beer sizes you get. Also you would think for trying to be an Irish pub type theme, they'd serve drinks in real pint glasses, but I got a tiny 12oz or so plastic cup of beer for $5. There are some good things about Annie's, but I think I prefer a few other places in The Capitol District, like Let it Fly or Roxxy.

Back story...I'm Vietnamese but I have come to LOVE this Czech dish due to my husband's family making it one a year on Thanksgiving instead of the normal line up. I could probably eat this every day...ehh, maybe once a week. And because it's such a niche dish and not commonly available, I will seek it out if it turns up. Such was the case here. I've never heard of Donohue's prior to this nor am I entirely familiar with all the great places in South Omaha. The building was unassuming and a bit darker lit, but you could tell it was a place where "regulars" hang- as evidenced by the waitress asking us if we needed menus (we did). The plate came within 5 minutes of ordering and it took about the same amount of time for me to devour it. The dumplings were delicious and the pork was some of the most tender, flavorful I have ever had. I think the gravy could have use a tad more salt (and I never add extra salt to anything) and I would've like the sauerkraut to be a bit more tart, but I understand that's a personal preference. The price was fair- I think maybe $11.99?, but I wouldn't have minded paying a little more to get a little more. Excited to come back next month when they have this special again!
