Pomegranate Lemon Drop
Nicole O.

Had a large work group go to dinner here on a Thursday night. I could not say more nice things about the staff - they cared so much and didn't allow the big group to seem intimidating! All of the drinks and food were brought out super quick! I got the steak rice bowl and it was AMAZING. I also can speak on the Pomegranate Lemon Drop - 10/10. I would love to come back here and try more food and drinks! Also, the cheese curd sampling is a must!

Banana Bread Beer + Fair Wisconsin Cheese Curds
Anna R.

Loved the banana bread beer and fair cheese curds. Thanks for putting the NHL games on by request and the quick service A bit of a quiet atmosphere (aside from standard music) perhaps due to the storm and grey cold weather. Construction was like a safari to get through, had to be very cautious.

Jalepeno popper burger, Melvin beer, chicken teriyaki rice bowl
Shauna T.

Came here for valentines lunch! They were very busy and were out of some beer options. We ordered the jalepeno popper burger and the chicken teriyaki rice bowl, with the Melvin and a dirty martini to drink. My husband enjoyed his burger and beer! I liked the flavor of the chicken teriyaki and my only qualm was that the egg was a bit runny. The dirty martini wasn't very good. Overall pretty good food and nice sports bar vibe!

Omaha Tap House is one of my go-to places for a great burger, and their menu has something to accommodate for any taste. I personally always opt for the brown sugar burger, and it has never disappointed me! The cheese curds are delicious, and I always recommend the sweet potato fries here! It is laid back and perfect for a meal with friends or family, but my boyfriend and I consistently eat here for date nights! Our service has varied, but it is normally great and our last waitress here was very attentive!

Fried Pickles Side
Sam M.

Starting off with my biggest complaint for any place is the added charge (3% here) for paying with a card instead of cash. It's a crappy thing to do so we probably won't be back just because of that which is unfortunate because we like the place for noon NFL games. Otherwise, the burgers were pretty good and my jalapeño burger went well with the fruity beer. Pickles were overly salted and thin, so they weren't too great.

I was in Omaha for work and ended up at Omaha Tap House Downtown for dinner right after landing. A good burger and a cold beer were exactly what I needed, and this place nailed both. The burger was juicy, the beer selection was solid, and it all just hit the spot after a long travel day. If I'm ever back in the area, I could definitely see myself stopping by again to see what else they've got going on. It's got that laid-back vibe that makes you want to hang out for a bit.

What a nice little spot in downtown Omaha. We got in last night about an hour before a concert and needed a quick bite. Omaha Tap House was a few minutes walk from our hotel so that's what we did. Cute little restaurant with nice staff. I had a bison burger and a drink I can't remember the name of. The drink was okay but nothing spectacular. The burger was very good. My friend enjoyed hers too. Service was good but not amazing. I'd try again.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for a super late lunch around three! The food came out really fast after we ordered. My boyfriend got the Hickory burger and said that it was pretty tasty. I got the garlic parmesan boneless wings which was good too- it came out with a lot of sauce as you can see in the picture! The fries were definitely my favorite part of the meal, idk what kind of seasoning they use but it was really good! It was a nice casual dining experience.

I've been here a few times and the food is always great. The cheese curds (any kind) are a must have, and the burgers and fries never disappoint. This time the host tried to seat us at a small two-person table that was way too close to another group, so we asked to sit at the bar instead. It didn't seem super busy with tables open, maybe just short on servers, but the bar worked out. The bartender was friendly, attentive without overdoing it, and gave us great service. Overall, the food is excellent and the service is decent. Definitely worth coming for the cheese curds alone.

boneless wings
Katie P.

I will rave about these cheese curds until the day i die. They have 4 (i think?) different styles of cheese curds and you cannot go wrong with any of them. The burgers are pretty good too. Not my absolute favorite in Omaha, but good. My friend got their wings, which were pretty good too. Nothing special about them, but good. They do get really busy, especially on weekends, so definitely join the waitlist if you can!! Their waiting area is also TINY, so the wait isn't great with its busy.

A good burger with some crispy onion rings! I loved the flavor of the cheese and ranch but they were a little too runny. Hard to keep it on the tray or food and not on me! The service was good and i enjoyed the hospitality from our server!

Bison Burger
Joshua H.

Best cheese curds that I have ever had. This is something that is thrown around a lot "best I have had". But truly mean it. Curds are probably my most go to app at a restaurant and these never disappoint. Burger was okay though.

Sweet Potato Fries

Stopped into Omaha Tap House and ordered the rotisserie chicken salad and sweet potato fries - both were excellent. The salad came loaded with tender rotisserie chicken, crisp lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, and these amazing candied pecans that made every bite a mix of savory and sweet. The sweet potato fries were the real show-stealer though - perfectly crisp with a brown sugar coating that basically turned them into dessert in disguise. Definitely ordering both again.

We used to go to Laka Lono a few times a month when we lived downtown and always loved the drinks…read moreand ambience. We recently took friends there and were wowed! They have stepped up their game for sure! New menu, new food options, and more drink options. They take reservations for tables now which was a nice surprise as well. The puke punch says it's strong on the menu and I wasn't ready for it- I was feeling good after that one drink! It's very sweet which makes it the best on the menu for my sweet tooth. Most bang for your buck too! My friend said the zombie was delicious! I can't remember what the frozen drink was but my other friend said it was very good! My husband loved the Mai Tai. The volcano bowl (3-4 people shared drink) was fantastic ! For the food, we were pleasantly surprised with how tasty the spam fries were! The dip was excellent as well! The edamame was good as well! As always, the vibes were immaculate and the staff was super friendly! We loved having our own waitress and table reserved. Overall a wonderful experience!

They have great group drinks, shots, snacks, and food options too. I was absolutly obsessed with my Cats Pajamas Clarified Punch. I've never had anything like it. A perfect mixture of coconut, brown sugar, pineapple, and tequila. They do have plenty of seating but it was hard to find a spot. It can get pretty busy. The line moves pretty fast for getting long. The servers were always friendly and helpful, and made each drink a show.

Popcorn and Cocktails (PaC) is such a cool idea for a business…read more The interior is so cute and almost a 20s vintage vibe with a cool Omaha mural. We first visited PaC at a Yelp event, but now we are hooked on their popcorn! The cocktails portion of Popcorn and Cocktails is nothing to sneeze at either. They are super smooth and flavorful, and the perfect pairing with a little side of popcorn. They even have pairings on their menu that show you which popcorns go best with each cocktail (and each cocktail actually comes with a side of that popcorn). If you like your side of popcorn that came with your cocktail, you can also purchase a large bag of it to take home! Our favorite popcorns have been the French Toast, Bourbon Bacon Cheddar, and Peanut Butter. They have popcorns for every craving - savory or sweet. And the cocktail we've liked the best was the Summer Peach - which literally came with a peach candy on the rim! So easy to drink and a little sweet. Popcorn with cocktails might sound like an odd combination, but PaC does it perfectly and will convert you to a fan of this combo!!

It was actually better once it was a bit melted so the peanut butter can come through. The Old Fashioned and French 75 were excellent. Love the the cup of popcorn and the the flavors! What a great hook. Perfect bar for "grownups" who want a nice drink in a chill setting. It's women owned, always a plus.

The duck was cooked perfectly and the bok choy that came with it added a perfect amount of crunch and mustard flavor. The tagliatelle was rich and the variety of mushrooms in the sauce added so much umami. We look forward to returning!
