Great variety of things to experience, and I've always been satisfied (and in a good mood) when I have gotten food from here. Right on the corner of 13th and Howard. Outdoor seating only, which is why it is (generally) not done in winter. But there are some surprises so I always keep an eye on their social media!

Omg, it was so good. I went this past Friday for their lobster roll and it did not disappoint…read more I got there right when they opened at 11am. (I would have gotten there earlier but I was busy that morning.) I waited in line for a little over an hour and ordered a lobster roll and a pear tarte. The lobster roll was absolutely amazing. There was SO much flavorful lobster, which I didn't expect. (Look at the pics; it's insane.) The pear tarte was awesome as well. Waiting in line for an hour was well worth it! If I go back again, I'll definitely try to get their earlier. Definitely recommend!

Everyone enjoyed their meal tonight, the boys ate everything! From the snow crab/shrimp to the Pork…read morechop and rice, to the Pho, everything was delicious! The check came for all 7 of us. And I gave $60 tip because of the number of people. Got back home and found that they charged me a "server fee" of $25.64! Wow! Tanya, what a dishonest waitress. I'll never go back and eat there. You should ha e explained to me what the server fee was. I would still have tipped good. It now I'll never go back.

Delicious food and great service!

His extensive menu made sure everyone got what they wanted and everyone raved about the food. 10/10 recommend!

We visited Chef Around the Block for the first time on a Tuesday night for their monthly pop-up…read moredinner and had a great experience. The menu rotates each month--ours was the Hawaiian-themed Hula Around the Block--and the food was excellent overall. The Huli Huli Chicken was the clear standout. The North Shore Garlic Shrimp Plate was solid, and the Asian Cucumber Salad was a nice side. The Spicy Salmon Poke Bowl was good, though I would have preferred the salmon raw and a bit more heat. The atmosphere is very casual and self-service. Chef/owner Dan is a genuinely nice guy and a great chef. If you like rotating themed menus in a relaxed pop-up setting, this is worth checking out. We'll be back.

(my grand daughter) Jams gets pretty good recommendations and has a pretty cool atmosphere and as it turns out, not to mention, good food. Jams is mostly a Mexican flair restaurant, but there are lots of other options... Chicken quesadillas, burgers, fried raviolis, onion rings... Good (patient) service is always appreciated.

Came for a table for one. Despite plenty of seating available, I was told it would be about a 20…read moreminute wait. I added myself to the waiting list and was told I'd receive a text message when my table was ready. I received the original text message, confirming I was successfully added to the waiting list. After an hour wait, I messaged the staff via the waiting list. No response. I observed perhaps 100 people go in and dine, many also leaving. I assumed they had been on the waiting list. After no respond and a total of an hour and a half wait, I walked up the street to M's Pub and was seated immediately. M's is a better restaurant anyway... I'd give this a zero out of five stars if possible. Profiled for being a table of one... Funny, I rang up a $150 bill at M's.

Plank has, unfortunately, announced they will be closing at the end of 2025, and while I did enjoy…read moresome of their food offerings, I can't say I'm super surprised. They definitely have/had some pretty high prices compared to other eateries in the area. I'm not sure if that is caused by cost of goods or location or what, but I think that did come into play when a lot of economic hardship is happening all over. Like I mentioned above, I DID like their food, but it definitely had to be a special occasion type of thing, due to the high prices. When we did go, I LOVED the Maryland Crab Dip. It reminded me of my favorite crab dip in the world, at the SweetWater Brewing Company in Atlanta. We also had the Green Bean Almandine that was on special last time we went and that was pretty good, but you have to be a green bean fan, for sure. I decided to try the sushi as my main dish last time, and had the Everything Crunch Maki, which consisted of cooked salmon, jalapeño, and cream cheese. It was pretty good, and had a little hint of spice to it from the jalapeño, which cut the heavy cream aspect. My husband had the Grilled Atlantic Salmon for his entree, and gave me a few bites. It was cooked well and the mushroom risotto below it was very flavorful and filling. The cute nautical ambiance and excellent service were always appreciated, so no complaints there either. I think if they had been in a different area with less expensive rent and cost of goods, I may have visited more often.

We were traveling to the zoo and this was recommended to us to try. I was scared at first because…read morethere's a lot of seafood places that have scared me off before. Plank provisions did one heck of a job. This oyster bar was phenomenal. The service was great, the food was superb. I will say the Caesar salad with chicken I ordered was probably the best Caesar I've ever had (and I'm a big Caesar fan, so it has to be just right). The mahi mahi tacos were so delicious, the sauce, the flakiness everything about them were devoured. Lastly loved their happy hour options, were tried the calamari and hush puppies(the sauce with these were sooo good and spicy!) The whole place had a welcoming vibe, and made you feel like you were stepping somewhere on the coast side! Which is nice for the Midwest haha. Well done plank provisions!

This chef (Djamil) does rotating pop-ups around O-town in addition to catering and private events…read moreand I was lucky enough to do a 9 course (shared with friends and tried the whole menu) taster at the pop up at the flat iron for only $65 (found out about it on Instagram)! He's also popped up at Dandelion and in the Switch in Blackstone. What I love about him is his efforts to harmonize African flavors with new American cuisine to introduce and make it palatable for newbies to the African scene. We had a chance to talk to the chef and it was really nice seeing his mission to bring more African tastes to Omaha. Currently I have only tried this type of flavor at Okra and Chaima's. I know once more people give it a chance, they will love it. Definitely look for House of Bah around town for pop ups. Updates on Facebook and their website, and Instagram. Consider him for catering and private dining events!

If you're sensitive to spice, just have a glass of mail near by, cause the flavor is worth it. It's a little pricey, but you get what you pay for! I would definitely go back.

Crystal Jade is a solid joint for comfort Chinese cuisine, and I really enjoyed the Kung Pao Tofu…read more-- it had a nice balance of spice, crunch, and umami. It's always a plus when a restaurant offers several palatable veggie options, and this menu definitely delivers on that front. The atmosphere was comfortable, the service was friendly, and the food came out pretty quickly. I'd give it 4 stars because everything was tasty, but there's still a little room for that extra "wow" factor. I've been here many times and I'll definitely return. Pro tip, get the chili oil for added spice!
