Love this burger & breakfast hole in the wall on Vinton street! They do have a parking lot & street parking! Their prices are super fair, staff was great, and the ambiance is your typical diner where everyone knows each other and the foods so good you keep going back! We enjoyed it a lot! read more

Louie M's was top of the list when I searched for burgers near downtown Omaha and I can see why. This is an old school, classic downtown diner with a ton of character. The first thing I noticed is that it's in kind of an unassuming part of Downtown Omaha. I'd call it off the beaten path for sure, and after chatting with some folks I know in Omaha I got the vibe that it maybe isn't in the most common part of town to explore as a tourist BUT I kind of loved that. This part of town feels lived in, authentic, and maybe a bit up and coming, like it's going through it's own sort of revitalization. All of that being said, I felt safe, and I knew I'd love dining here when I approached the building and there was a group of regulars gathered outside soaking up the sun that greeted us. One of them said "those are the days" to his buddies, upon seeing us with two little kids in tow and I honestly enjoyed hearing that little reminder to try and soak up these long but important days with our girls. Once inside I had some of the best hospitality I've had ever at a restaurant. The server was top notch - so friendly, answered all questions, and really made us feel at home. I'd return just for the vibes and service alone. We ordered burgers as it's in the name! They were good - I was I think expecting to be blown away given the reviews and blown away I was not, BUT I was really impressed with the onion rings, the burger was solid, and I'd not hesitate to return. The cherry on top? The owner was making the rounds - Louie himself! - and he was so kind, and thoughtful. There is something to be said about someone taking pride in what they do and I think that really came through here. Overall you can't go wrong stopping in here for a meal - I promise you'll enjoy it! read more

Fantastic Spot! When I first walked in I was taken back to the 60's because of the decor, not bad just pleasantly surprised. I also knew when I saw the USMC decor on the "I Love Me" wall that I was in the right spot. HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Omaha Reuben sandwich that was an outstanding choice. Thick cut corned beef with molten cheese and the dressing also accompanied by thin cut fries that were served hot! Perfect! The biscuits and gravy with eggs were perfectly prepared and also served hot. Wifey said probably the best B&G w/eggs she's had. If you are flying in to Omaha or your local and looking for a good meal, this is the place. This is a must-return if I'm ever back in the area. read more

Living in this neighborhood I come here often. I love a good breakfast and Louie M's has the best. Corned beef hash is homemade and delicious, and the biscuits and gravy are yummy too. Burgers and lunch foods are top notch as well. Need a Ruben? Try this one. The owner and the servers are all super friendly and welcoming, and I'm so glad this restaurant is still here after all these years!!! read more

We have had a highly satisfying breakfast at Burger Lust many times and today was no exception. A few things have changed since we were last here, but the most important things stayed the same. The inside still has that homey, diner vibe with a pay phone on the wall in the next room, brick walls and interesting antiques on display. One change is the paper menus the size of placemats. I much prefer those to the plastic ones that to me felt syrup sticky. Also the same is the array of condiments on the table-- you don't have to ask for it, it's already there. The service and food were excellent as usual. Bookguy had overeasy eggs, English muffin, ham steak, and a sheaf of perfect hashbrowns. My breakfast consisted of a veggie omelette, the same generous hashbrowns, and a biscuit. I love the biscuits with strawberry jam. The only thing that marred our visit was the strong cigarette odor that came in with a customer. We thought he must be one of those heavy smokers who always wear that scent like cologne. Later we decided it was coming from outside because there's outdoor seating, where smokers sit. It was of short duration, so not a big issue and didn't keep us from enjoying our meal. read more

Great local spot for a good diner style meal! Came here with coworkers this morning for breakfast and had a great time. Didn't feel rushed, had a table to accommodate us and always were refilling waters. Meal was good, the selection of toast was great! I got raisin toast! Overall it is pricey but the breakfast comes with a lot! The ham and cheese omelette is very good and you can tell the ham is good quality. Expensive but worth it imo. read more

The hype for this place was anticipated however it did not come close to a "5", more like a "3". Nothing special - burger no better than any other burger place in town. I would not go back. read more

Louie M's Burger Lust - Great Indoor dining area! - Burgers Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

First time visiting. As soon as we walked in there was a strong odor of something like chemicals or cleaner. It didn't bother us too much though. The waiter greeted us and sat us down immediately. Husband ordered a cheeseburger with a fried egg and I ordered the guacamole bacon burger. It only took about 10 mins for the food to come out. They forgot the fried egg for my husbands burger but the waiter had them add it. I was slightly disappointed with the guacamole on the guacamole burger. It looked like it came out of a store bought tube. I was expecting home made guacamole and it just didn't taste or look like it. The burger itself was big and juicy but the guac threw it all off. Overall, I was not impressed with my food but the place was nice and the waiter was attentive and friendly so I will be giving them a second chance and returning to try out the breakfast. read more

My family and I love eating here, the environment is very friendly, staff is also sweet and helpful. Everything on their menu is a 10/10.

We ate Saturday brunch at Louie M's today! All the food was excellent and the service and ambiance were both great! We loved the decor as well. Thanks for a great meal! read more

Louie M's is a great breakfast and lunch spot. It's 2 small spaces, one a small diner and the other an older brick building. You can customize almost everything on the menu, and you'll find something you'll love. I usually go for breakfast, but the burgers are great too. The owners are attentive and hardworking. Highly recommend. read more

I don't mean any disrespect to the burgers or the lunch menu, but I think this semi old school diner-influenced restaurant should be called Louie M's Breakfast Lust. You've got breakfast sandwiches, eggs and omelets, breakfast breads and more. I especially like the "Ole" portion of the menu, which features your favorite South-of-the-border-themed dishes. All served in heaping portions. I highly recommend the Huevos Rancheros. It's a busy and popular place. A wait will form during peak times. read more

Local. Breakfast. This is a place that once you have tried it, it will be on the list to come to each time your in Omaha or on your routine if you live here. The service is hands down awesome. The servers were nice, engaging and really seem to care about what they are doing. Great group of people. They will tell you all about the specials which all sound amazing. The food, that is what you want to read about. Now this is a "burger" shop nestled in a neighborhood but really it's THE BREAKFAST PLACE. Slider - ok this isn't just a sausage, egg and cheese on a dinner roll (yes it is) but it's a huge piece of sausage and absolutely wonderful. Ordering one you will be disappointed because you will want another. Trust me on this...lather this up with strawberry or grape jelly and you have a sweet and savory breakfast sandwich. Pancake - THE CAKE - holy moly talk about plate size with some depth. check out the picture, you aren't leaving hungry. Breakfast burrito - ok when I read the menu I honestly thought about asking for the green chili pork sauce on the side - but this stuff makes the plate. A hint of spice is just perfect add to the bacon sausage Hashbrown burrito mix. Absolutely enjoyed it....don't let the size deceive you it's a lot of food. Definitely enjoyed our experience. read more

Very good diner; burgers are tasty and gigantic. The verde pork stew is the gem of the menu IMO, rich with layers of flavor. Service was friendly and we had a good time. Check out the old timey stove on the right hand side, it fits right in with the decor. read more

Edit I just realized I've left two reviews lol oops Our new favorite breakfast spot. Each servers are so nice so are the ones that clean the tables. Food is good. Atmosphere is good and the prices are decent coffee comes with your breakfast I guess depending on what you're ordering and if you don't get hashbrowns and toast, they take a couple dollars off. read more

The food was delicious and it tasted like a real treat. I had a real coke in a bottle, old school. I will always remember this moment as a time of great joy. Thank you for a wonderful time at your restaurant. I will come back to enjoy your food again. An A+ experience! read more

The food is really good. Service great. BUT...WHY IN THE WORLD DONT RESTAURANT OWNERS EVER LOOK UP????? Everything above eye level is gross and filthy. Especially in the older side. I would be afraid to eat under those fans if they were running! Clean above eye level for gods sake. read more

Great burger, old school diner vibe with great service. Burger was awesome, as well as the giant portion of a chorizo breakfast.

Great service and great food. Would highly recommend this place for anybody looking for a good bite to eat

Very warm atmosphere- personal touch! Service outstanding and some great breakfast grubs

Louie M's never disappoints. They have something for everyone. Breakfast, brunch, & lunch! The staff is incredibly welcoming and you always get checked on to make sure you have everything you need. They provide an assortment of hot sauces on the table to spice up your meal. The Bloody Mary is perfect. read more

We grabbed some take out on the way home from the zoo for lunch. I decided to try their Italian Burger based on their recommendation and I definitely see why. It was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time! Perfect combination of parmesan and mozzarella cheeses with their marinara sauce on the side - yum! You have a variety of side options to choose from as well. I saw pictures of their onion rings so I went with those. Highly recommend them. Flakey and crunchy, but not overly greasy, just the way I like my onion rings. My wife had their chicken Philly. Their chicken was tender and seasoned well (I tried a bite so I could comment) but I still preferred my burger ;) I'd love to come back to try their breakfast options because they looked just as good as my lunch when I went inside to pick it up! read more

Louie M's Burger Lust - Italian Burger Onion Rings - Burgers Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Found out about this place from a friend recently after years of living in the area. Some of the best breakfast food we've ever had here in Omaha. Still have yet to try a burger (was going to try one for dinner only to see they are only a brunch place and close at 3 all week), but all the breakfast dishes have been phenomenal. The green chili in particular is something special not seen in other Midwestern joints east of Colorado. I like to smother everything with it. The ambiance is a diner classic--we only have a few of these left in the US, so we need to keep them alive. The service is great, they keep a keen eye on your coffee, filling it up very frequently. Truly a great restaurant. The only downside are it's hours, but beggars can't be choosers. read more

is a very bad service, bad quality in products and very expensive. They hay a worst Italian food in town!

Well I went to Burger Lust for the first time. Was really craving a buyer today. Now I must admit I am the type that like thin, crispy charred burgers. Burger lust are good size burger but it had a good char on it. Great flavor too. I ordered the Swiss mushroom burger and added sautéed jalapeños to it. It was very delicious! Bun was toasted nicely as well. Now anyone that knows me knows I love corned beef hash. I noticed on their menu they have homemade corned beef hash! So I'm Look forward to my next visit to burger lust read more

Service is awesome! Food is great too but everyone here is concerned with you having a great meal. We came here for breakfast. I didn't feel like eggs so I opted for a Rueben. The corned beef was tender, bread toasted just right and sauce to the right amount. The bite of cinnamon roll I was able to steal from my son was fluffy with a sweet frosting. My husband had the 'Three Pigs' (bacon, sausage and ham) that he was very happy to finish. Refills on pop on point, alcohol available if you want to start Saturday off with a bang...or just help with Friday night recovery, and numerous hot sauces on the table to add a little spice to your meal. read more

I've been going to this place for 35 years and never had one bad meal. It's very nostalgic for me.

First things first, the Bloody Mary here is one of the very best I have ever had. Worth a trip here for one of those alone. It seems like this joint is always busy, but they have the room for everyone in there. The burgers as the name suggests are amazing and the fries compliment them very well. They have large selection of burgers, sandwiches, soups and Great Breakfast choices. The service was super to say the least. It is obvious to me that Louie M's has been around for awhile and for good reason. I really love a place where the owners greet you and make sure you have what you need. Sadly, places like this are few and far between. I sure am glad Louis M's is not that far away from me, because I will be going back sooner rather than later. Do not hesitate to get the Clam Chowder it is delicious read more

Food incredible Staff friendly but overworked. Really loved the breakfast offerings here. Had the egg sandwich and hashbrowns. One of those places you could return multiple times in order to try everything on the menu. Casual dining room. Street parking, but oddly plentiful. Lots of group tables and individual tables as well. Menu oddity: Pepsi fountain products, but real cane sugar Coca-Cola bottled in Mexico. read more
