    I am always looking for a new breakfast place in Omaha. Checked out Olive and Iris, which is the restaurant embedded in the boutique Magnolia Hotel. The Magnolia has a dedicated parking lot that charges a fee. However, there is also street parking and Sundays there is no charge if you're stopping in for brunch. Being located a bit away from downtown and midtown this area tends to be quiet so you typically won't find a wait here. The restaurant itself is really nicely appointed, offering an elevated upscale feel. Easy access for folks that may have mobility challenges. We were pleasantly greeted and noticed that our server was also working as maître D which seemed to be a little distracting for them. The hours at this restaurant is abbreviated for the different meals, breakfast/brunch/lunch is served until 2 PM. The restaurant reopens at 4 o'clock for dinner. The menu is somewhat limited, however, all the basics are there and looked very inviting. It became clear that there may be some service challenges at this restaurant as wait times for refills, food (which came out a little on the cool side), and just general interested at our table was not as focused as it could've been. The fruit bowl was very generous and fresh, presentation of hot dishes was your standard breakfast fare. I might try this location again just to see if I was here on an off day.

    Located inside the historic Magnolia hotel. The interior dining area is nice, modern, folksy with the upholstered pleather chairs at the table. Small and rather limited menu. We ordered the yogurt parfait, avocado toast on sour dough bread and steel cut oats and a plain black coffee. The steel cut coats is good, the oats are smaller cut, which I like. The blackberry compote is good on top of it. The yogurt, granola and blueberry parfait is good. Think it would be even better with a berry compote for added flavor to it. The avocado toast looks decent, but there is barely any avocado smashed onto the sour dough at all. It's quite skimpy. The coffee is average, so was our service, better with another staffer that had noticed our food order was not actually put in by our first waitress.

    Adorable spot for breakfast!!

    It's really nice in a new town to find a place and be taken care of by the Chef/server. Missy took such great care of us and the food was outstanding everything fresh everything made to order. Come here again anytime highly recommended.

    I went to Memoir for my birthday and cannot say enough good things! Staff were super friendly and…read moreaccommodating, even presented a happy birthday sign with drinks. We had drinks and light bites, which was the perfect way to start a birthday evening in an elevated environment. Adrianna, the general manager, was especially gracious. Will keep coming back, especially for special occasions!

    Amazing Omaha Gem: Memoir is a Must-Visit!…read more This was my second visit to Memoir, and I'm simply blown away. This spot is a 10/10--glorious, delicious, and an absolute vibe. The food is incredible, the space is stylish, and the service is top-notch. I brought my mother, partner, and our 8-month-old, and we all had the best time. Appetizer Highlights (Run, Don't Walk!): We started with three appetizers, and all were phenomenal: Potato Pouffs: Seriously one of my favorite appetizers ever. They are creamy and potatoey inside, served with an incredible aioli. Whipped Ricotta: Served atop the lightest, most flavorful focaccia I've ever tasted. Brussels Sprouts: They absolutely rule. Entrees & Drinks: I enjoyed the Herbal Tree drink (light, refreshing, and comes with unlimited refills--bonus!). For the main course, I had the Salmon over Sweet Corn Risotto. It tasted exactly like summer, even on a chilly fall day; I'd 100% get this again. My mother, who had never ordered steak and eggs before, took a gamble on their version and was thrilled. It's possibly the most affordable and elevated version I've seen, featuring a beautifully cooked steak with chimichurri and a super elevated potato cake (the hashbrown). Verdict: We are so lucky to have Memoir in Omaha. Go make memories ASAP!
