    Fried pickles
    Cassidy J.

    A solid sports bar and grill! Service has always been quick and polite and they have some great food! Their boneless wings are super meaty and huge -- a really big fan of them. Probably my favorite boneless wings in town. The fried pickles and onion rings are so good! You can tell they're made in house. The breading is just delicious. The ranch here is also pretty solid which makes everything that much better. Wish we would have stumbled into this place sooner! They have NFL Sunday ticket so a great place to watch a game. Lots of TVs throughout the bar.

    Husker game day at Rookies; awesome. Cold Coors Light with great service. Best fried pickles in Omaha. Had the Philly Fries for the first time today; new favorite menu item. Was going to post a photo but they looked too good to remember to get the camera out.

    Onion Rings and Philly sammich

    First time visitor. These were the best onion rings I've ever eaten. So good. And the Philly was delish as well. But, the Onion rings...omg

    Came here on a Friday night with a group of 4 for a fun double-date! We've been here multiple…read moretimes, and the food always hits the spot. Weekends can get busy, so we made a reservation and were seated right away. Our server was great, and our food and drinks came out quickly. I ordered the Crispy Shrimp Bowl for the first time and loved it! The shrimp were perfectly crispy, the sauce was delicious, and the bowl was so colorful with all the veggies. My husband tried the Chicken Tacos for the first time and the portion was way bigger than he expected! They also came with a side of chips and salsa. Can't wait to come back. Highly recommend for date night or a night out with friends!

    It's clean and modern looking, the green tiles are very nice. The beer menu is not very up to date,…read moreand the "8 oz" drinks are surely not 8 oz (you cannot tell me I could pour a full beer can into this glass, as cute as they are). I had the burger with bacon and bleu cheese, and the waitress was nice enough to note my request for lighter amounts of bleu cheese - it goes exceptionally well with bacon but has a strong enough flavor to not need an excessive amount. It seemed like there was none at all on there, so perhaps that was my mistake for asking. I feel like it is normally piled on there but I did still want *some.* The Nashville sandwich was nothing special, but the coleslaw was good. 6/10. The new honey chicken sandwich was good, 8.5/10. The truffle cheesesteak had noticeable truffle, even a little much, which you don't always get, and maybe not enough cheese, but was overall good. 7/10. The fries and sweet potato fries were both very good, well seasoned fries. I would come back - I would bring my parents here. I hope to sit outside at some point to see how nice that can be. There was a good amount of people here for a Wednesday, I know on the weekends it can be fairly packed, so a weekday was a good time to go.

I came for the Detroit-style pizza, easily the most underrated pizza style there is. If you know, you know. I ordered The Cadillac: cream cheese, cherry peppers, hot honey. On paper, it's chaos. In practice? A beautifully thought-out balance of sweet and spicy. Rich without being heavy, heat without going overboard. Someone in that kitchen gets it. And for a moment, it's flirting with greatness. Almost a perfectly executed Detroit pie... until the crust. That signature Detroit crisp--the caramelized, fried-edge crunch--is just a little undercooked. Not bad, but quickly soggy. Just missing that final snap that makes this style elite. Still, credit where it's due. This is a valiant effort, and not an easy style to pull off outside its home turf. I see you, Omaha. You're closer than you think!
