Dining out with a 3-month-old and a 2-year-old can be stressful, but Dante made it feel effortless…read more Jen greeted us and quickly got us seated, graciously accommodating our oversized stroller without making us feel like we were in the way. That first impression matters. Our server Paul was a true professional. The best way I can describe him is that he represents what hospitality should be. Attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great experience. His wine recommendation of a Barbera d'Asti with the braised beef completely surprised me in the best way. What really impressed me was Jen checking back in after seating us to help get our toddler's order in quickly. She read the situation perfectly while we were managing both kids. That awareness is what separates good service from great service. Highlights from dinner: Squid ink tagliarini with crab (fantastic depth of flavor) Braised beef (comforting and refined at the same time) Pizza that made our 2-year-old very happy Excellent wine guidance from Paul The service honestly reminded me of Michelin experiences I've had -- not because of formality, but because of how intentional and thoughtful everything felt. This was hands down one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in Omaha.

We've been to Dante a couple of times now. The first time was for a wine tasting event that our…read morefriends invited us to. It was a fun event with good wine and complimentary margherita pizza. Some slices were great, though a few had burnt crust. We came back another time to check out their happy hour. The drinks and food we ordered were fine, nothing special, and it took quite a while for the food to come out. Their happy hour ends at 5, which felt a little early. Overall, the ambiance is nice, and it's a solid spot, but given all the hype we'd heard, we expected to be a little more impressed.

Went here for the first time on my birthday for lunch. We were seated right away, and our waiter…read morecame to the table shortly after. The restaurant has a pleasant ambiance and plenty of seating. We ordered the lobster spinach queso as an appetizer, and it was delicious. For my main course, I chose the wood-grilled salmon with mixed vegetables and mashed potatoes. While the dish wasn't anything particularly unique, it was very well prepared and tasted great. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes.

Bonus - they allow food from Blue or Salween Thai to be brought in and enjoyed with a glass of wine. We came in on a Monday afternoon, it was very quiet, but we enjoyed the time. They had a number of glasses of wine on happy hour, including Prisoner and I was impressed!

I like the atmosphere and they had a great selection, but our wine flights were brought to us in…read morethe wrong order with no labeling of which glass was which. I'd recommend using some sort of labeling system (erasable marker on the glass or paper labels) They need to be labeled *somehow* instantly after they are poured so people know for sure which wine is which and the employee isn't confused. There were multiple customers and I understand it can be confusing to remember which wine is which (especially when they are all red) so labels are 100% necessary and appreciated

I like this place! It has the same ownership as Main Street Cellars in Elkhorn. My sense is that…read morethe inventory at this location is less expensive and not as expansive. But that's okay. I don't regularly spend $300 plus on a bottle from Stagelin Vineyard (The Parent Trap.) He didn't have any Carmenre in stock and I clued him in on the story. It helps to sell the grapes!

I should have known when it was easy to get a reservation the day before Mother's Day what we were…read morein for when there were understandably, no other reservations available for good sushi. The restaurant was pretty empty when we got there. Service was very slow and unknowledgeable. Drinks took way too long. My daughter ordered a Mule but they don't use ginger beer so it was vodka soda with sweet ginger syrup and quite bad. They did take it away and didn't charge for it. The only thing we had I would recommend was the Squid Salad. That is all I would order again if I had to go back. The rest of the food; gyoza, spicy edamame, 2 sushi rolls and the fried tofu were bland and uninteresting. If you can get a table at any other Sushi restaurant near take it And skip the below average. The place is decorated very nicely.

Benihana as a business was bought out by the company who owns Kona Grill. So do we have a Benihana…read morein Omaha? No. It exists as only a "ghost kitchen" (pickup and delivery only) inside Kona Grill. We figured, hey maybe it's as good as the actual Benihana we've had while traveling, so we ordered it via GrubHub. But no - that hope for it to be as good was not the case. Especially for the price, which I'll get into. We ordered the hibachi chicken fried rice, onion soup, and chicken gyoza. It was $52 after tip. When I tell you the chicken fried rice was a child size...you have to see the pic to believe me. It was also dry as all get out. It was literally just like the fried rice you get on the side for free at Chinese restaurants usually, but with some dry bits of flavorless chicken. Luckily I had soy sauce and yum yum sauce at home to partially save it. The onion soup was $8 and it came in what is normally the size of a side of SAUCE anywhere else - super tiny. And it was about 90% onions, not really a "soup" at all. The chicken gyoza was pretty good, but for $14, I expect more than 5 little gyozas. It also didn't come with enough dipping sauce so I also had to use sauce I had at home. The fact that I had to "fix" two of the three items is not a cool look at all. I did like that they had Benihana packaging though, as most ghost kitchen type places just use plain brandless packaging or the brand of the restaurant they reside in. The packaging though did not save this meal, especially because the food wasn't great at all and the price was astronomical - I recommend you skip this one.

Still my favorite sushi in the 402 that doesn't break the bank!…read more Love that they extended their happy hour from 6 to 6:30 PM recently. Their happy hour is usually quite busy, so this helps with that. I love that they have my favorite rolls like crunchy blue or Hawaiian that I can order every time I come in, but it would be nice if they had a rotating specials menu where you could try new different types of rolls to discover new favorites. I just feel like the menu has stayed the same for very long time. On the whole, though, I am a regular here and enjoy a consistently positive experience.

Here's a short, polite, and balanced version you can use:…read more Came in for dinner tonight and had a mixed experience. We started with the Brussels sprouts, lettuce wraps, and calamari. Unfortunately, the calamari was very small and the Brussels sprouts were quite oily. I mentioned this to our server toward the end of the meal. The second course -- sushi and sashimi -- was much better and really enjoyable. I was a bit surprised that after sharing the feedback, no one followed up or checked in with us. Overall, they just missed the mark a little this time, but I appreciate the opportunity to give feedback and hope it helps for future visits.

Hard to believe we've been going to Davlo's for 11 years!…read more Chose Davlo's last night hoping to avoid the Berkshire crowd downtown. Good choice. It was not empty but we were seated right away. Experience is largely the same as always. The deep dish pizzas are unique and delicious, but take time to come out. Be prepared. Cocktail was subpar. Ordered Bombay Sapphire martini, what came out was drinkable but something else. Our server offered to make another one personally, but she described watching the bartender make the first one and I opted not to replace. Next time (and there will be a next time, the pizza is tasty) I will have a beer in a bottle.

I'm going to offer a change of pace from the other reviews and instead contrast this pizza with…read morethat of actual Chicago deep dish. To start, both Davlo's and Chicago deep dish are quite good. On taste, texture, etc. I will say that they're evenly matched. Location: As you know, Chicago pizza restaurants are located in Chicago. This may prove convenient if you already live there. However, where Pizzeria Davlo really wins out in this category is that you're much less likely to be the victim of a crime when dining here. I have been here numerous times and I have never been shot, stabbed, or had my identity stolen. Price: Gas money from Omaha to Chicago is quite expensive. This must be factored in to the cost of each slice, making Pizzeria Davlo the clear winner in this category. Even if you don't live in the Omaha area Pizzeria Davlo still wins on price given the cost of medical bills in our country. The one advantage I would give Chicago pizza joints is that if you're trying to make it big in the drill scene, the options at Pizzeria Davlo are quite lacking in that regard. Oh, and also don't listen to cowards that say that it's not good to-go. They do this half-cut sort of technique to where the sauce doesn't leak out. You're good! They could use better marketing though. My vote for a tagline would be: "Pizza you don't have to die for."
