Everything we ate was really good. Probably one of the best restaurants in Omaha area. The restaurant was larger than I expected, it has a nice view of the water and even has some outdoor seating. We went with a group and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. My favorite things were the Mahi Mahi, the bone in ribeye, and the potatoes. I probably would not get the beet salad again, but it was good. Although I didn't try it, the table agreed the potatoes were the best side and they would get 2 of those instead of the lobster Mac next time. We got drinks at the bar when we walked in and the bartender really took his time in making a beautiful and tasty drink. He was very knowledgeable about all the drinks and seemed to be in charge of making a lot of the items that were made in house. I got the Every Second Counts cocktail. It was really good! Would get that on a return trip as well. The only negative thing that happened was that our friends at the table ordered a glass of wine recommended by our waiter and when they got the bill, we were surprised to see it was $70 a glass. After talking with the manager, they were able to get half of the charge removed, but it was a real shock when we hadn't been told the price and the highest priced wine on the menu was around $20 a glass. Hopefully that's not something others are experiencing, but I would recommend asking the price on a special or recommendation if you aren't told up front. read more

On the whole, I had a good experience at Salted Edge. They get an extra star for the location. It wasn't that far outside of Omaha and the restaurant is lovely. It is modern but warm and inviting. Just a beautiful space. Loved the small little lounges outside near the water's edge. I could see coming back in the summer or late fall with the fire places. Our server seemed new. She was trying hard to remember the menu when we asked several detailed questions. She did have to check with the kitchen a number of times but she was friendly and delivered items promptly. There are two mocktails on the beverage menu. It's nice to have nonalcoholic drinks that aren't soda. However, they were out of some of the ingredients for the Free Willy I wanted to try. The other beverage was good, but not what I had my heart set on. The drink I did get had pieces of herb, I think, tarragon, cut finely enough that they came up through the straw. And there were quite a few of them. Cutting them bigger would have been a nicer drinking experience. As others have said, the bread board is the highlight of the menu. Lots of creativity with the different types of bread as well as the spreads. I think my favorite was the orange rosemary biscuit...nice glazed top and fluffy in the middle. If I'm being picky, the "smoked" butter really just tasted salty. I didn't get any smoke. A couple of the flavor combinations of spreads and their intended bread was a little much, so proceed with caution. The one item I really didn't care for was the goat cheese topping along with the lavender and the cornbread. Just too many competing flavors. But on the whole, the baked items were well executed. And what a unique sharing board! A lot of their menu items were good, but not perfect. For example, the lobster bisque was decent, but not great. I enjoyed the tableside soup pour, but the pieces of lobster were small. I also wanted the bisque to be creamier. I expected the frites to be hand-cut but they came out not very warm, and I think they're fried from frozen potatoes. I was disappointed by the short ribs. I thought the meat had good beefy flavor, but the texture was a little stringy, more along the lines of a pot roast than what I would expect from a short rib. Whew! I could say more, but hopefully you get the gist. Some hits and misses, but lots of good things going on here. read more

This is it! There is no reason to look for any other place when it comes to a guaranteed good time, friendly staff and amazing food. My wife and I went there to celebrate our anniversary and let me tell you that we were so impressed not only by the food but the attention to detail. As soon as we walked in and let them know what name of our reservation was they told us happy anniversary. This detail mattered to us not because they probably knew based on the reason we gave for our reservation but because they cared enough to have a signed card from everyone who worked at the restaurant wishing us a happy anniversary. It was a nice touch and a memorable one. The staff were so friendly and cared a lot about our experience. Our waitress was funny, attentive and checked on us frequently. I keep thinking about the food we ordered and how good it was, about amazing service they and how they paid attention to everything. It made me realize how important good customer service and the experience is. It is something that you don't realize until you get a taste of how good it can be. I can't wait to go back and eat there again. read more

Been to Salted Edge quite a few times now, and service is always top tier. Food and drinks were amazing as always. However, this time we were very disappointed. Not only was it very loud where we were seated, but the server was completely attending to another party instead of us. Having been a server for four years, this was incredibly disappointing. She barely made eye contact with us, didn't refill our drinks or offered to until we asked. Left menus on our small table, dropped the check and walked away. Unfortunately, her service was all we could talk about because we were so poorly treated. She was attending to another party of 10 people and it was very clear she was only focused on them. I am never one to write a review but was so disappointed, I felt I had to. I have the name of the waitress but out of respect I have decided to leave that out... read more

The food was absolutely delicious The reservation person was so helpful, and pleasant. We were all impressed with her. The service was so pleasant, and so forgetful. We had to remind her of several part of our order, and never ever got our deviled eggs. The food was worth the drive out of town. The service was subpar. read more

My friend and I finally got to try Salted Edge for her belated birthday dinner. We tried a little bit of everything, and it did not disappoint! The ambiance is quite lovely, right on the water. The highlights for me were the Jam it In Smash cocktail (tequila, berry jam, and lime) and the bread board! We also tried the deviled eggs, bison sliders, and some oysters! Our server was friendly and helpful navigating the menu for the first time. I will definitely return for a special occassion dinner! read more

Drinks were amazing and the food was good. I would recommend this place if you are wanting a place to be seen. You order a main entree and then order separate sides to finish out your meal. The sides are somewhat smaller than other restaurants of this style. I have visited other establishments with food just as good as Salted Edge but was half the price. read more

Service was spectacular, ambiance is fine dining, but not too bourgeoisie, and the dry-aged ribeye was the best steak I have had in some time. That's a high bar because I have worked in and even run several steak restaurants. Can't wait to go again. read more

Great place!! I thought it was just going to be super bougie and maybe a little uptight, but it was great. Waiter gave us a rundown on why it's there and it started as a place for people to be able to be on the lake and come in for a great meal. It was a laidback and relaxing atmosphere. My husband and I went for my birthday and they had a little birthday card for me. So sweet! Food was great and reasonably priced. Not a cheap date but great spot go and enjoy the lake and great food. read more

We enjoyed our visit to this distant restaurant. It's an attractive location. It's waterside at West Shores Lake, with an attractive view facing west. Seating indoors and waterside, weather permitting. The service is plentiful and cheerful. They happily sat us outside due to being already booked indoors. We managed to get back inside due to chill winds. They were very accommodating. The food was delicious. We had a charcuterie plate to start. It was a delicious blend of cheese, meats and fruits. For dinner, we split the chicken dish. It was plentiful and succulent. Overall we would return. read more

Back at Salted edge last night. Friend from England is in town so 5 of us went for dinner. Once again absolutely amazing ! Everything we had was perfectly cooked and prepared. The mushroom + truffle pizza was a huge hit. So delicious ! Ned time I am coming for just pizza I think. I had the steak and frites. Perfectly cooked medium rare. So much flavor. Loved it! We shared the bourbon cake for dessert. Could have crushed that by myself. Love this restaurant! read more

My food was hands down a 5, my fiancée said a four for his-he wasn't blown away. The loudness and lack of cozy getaway tables in the environment doesn't quite suit the food quality. They might benefit by adding some acoustical tiles under the table tops. I've seen this work marvelously. That said, for french onion soup made with braised short ribs that's the second best I've had in my life (and I've eaten a ridiculous amount looking for the best), I'll just have to deal with it. Maybe we'll find out when they are the slowest and plan around that. I also had the scallops, he had the steak frites. Great old fashion. We will be back. read more

This is my second Salted Edge review, because I just got to try their new brunch offerings. As always, the food was impeccable. We got a bread board for the table, which I would absolutely recommend. Our hostess was so helpful in substituting one of the breads for a gluten free donut from Sugared Ledge next door to accommodate one of our group that is gf. The savory was delicious and the sweet melted in my mouth. For my main course I got Amanda's Beni and it was fantastic. The crab cakes were large and delicious, and I love that it was served on pieces of grilled baguette instead of an English muffin. If you're a brunch person you absolutely need to go to Salted Edge! read more

Salted Edge is absolutely wonderful. It was on my Omaha "to try" bucket list and it lived up to my expectations. The Bread Board is a must for all bread lovers. I got the braised short rib and it was the best I've ever had - so tender and flavorful and the potato cake underneath was the best compliment. the other entrees we got were just as good though! The lobster mac ACTUALLY had decent-sized lobster chunks too! score! The drink selection was great and the atmosphere was modern and nice dim lighting for the evening. Our service was nice too! The parking lot is a slight jaunt away from the entrance but still easily accessible. I definitely recommend and will be back to try the whole menu (especially that HUGE chicken entree)! read more

Had a wonderful anniversary dinner, Our server was really nice, I think her name was Sophie or Sophia. We went with the ribeye special and half a dozen oysters. Ribeye was absolutely perfect, we ordered it rare. I felt the pommes aligot was amazing but just slightly too salty but boyfriend thought it was perfect. We also loved the oysters from Massachusetts. Pistachio cheesecake was to die for! Overall I will definitely come back for other special occasions, there are many other items on the menu I'm dying to try. read more

Salted Edge - Dry aged beef - Steakhouses Near Me - Waterloo, Nebraska

We have tried and tried and tried to give this place grace and it just continues to disappoint. They consistently serve luke warm martinis. They do not chill their martini glasses which seems like basic mixology 101. But then don't shake it long enough to make up for a warm glass. This may seem picky but a reasonable expectation for a place of this caliber. I don't see this place surviving and I would love to see it improve but we've tried to give it a chance. We've spent a lot of money here for a less than excellent experience every time. The food is good! I question the leadership. I hope you take this review to heart that you need to take a serious look at excellence and consider if you are really providing that kind of experience. Take the time to hire the best and/or train those who need development. Sadly we will not be back or recommend to others. read more

Went to Salted Edge for our 20th Anniversary. Reservations made 3 weeks in advance and asked for a 'nice table with a view' to celebrate. Called back multiple times during business hours to ask for a corkage fee in order to bring a special wine. No answer and they never returned our call. Showed up and seated at a less than stellar seat in a very busy and loud room on the north side of the restaurant. No view other than the undeveloped lot to the north. Sat near the window and sun glared in my eyes the whole dinner through the break in the blinds. My chosen meal was 'sold out for the season'. Spent $163 on two appetizers, two alcoholic drinks, and two entrees. My plum creek chicken was pretty good but green beans were barely warm and super crisp/under cooked. Would have rather spent the money at another one of the Omaha Metro fine eating establishments instead. Brittnee (server) was delightful. Mixed drinks pretty good. Old fashioned fair/pretty plain Jane. On an upbeat note, they welcomed us with a happy anniversary card and sent us away after complementary prosecco drink. Overall: Ambiance-less than stellar. LOUD Table/chair comfort-less than stellar Mixed Drinks-well done Food-pretty good overall, but maybe not representative of the menu price Service-Brittnee was excellent! Lady that brought the bread - we now refer to her as "grumpy bread girl." I'd spend my money and time elsewhere next time. read more

Such a nice spot with very modern feel, and one of the best lake views around Omaha! The outdoor patio is by far the best vibe I've found in the city, from the modern bar decor to the comfortable lounge chairs, all with an excellent view of the gorgeous lake. The food was amazing--we went during a soft opening and were able to order from 3 different menus which all had a few entree/app options. Short rib was my favorite! I'm not even sure what the sides were but they paired very well flavor and texture-wise--some sort of fried cheese base, and a creamed spinach under the short rib. The pizza was fantastic as well--very thin crust but not crunchy, charred on the bottom, and very fluffy at the top. One of my favorite pizza doughs I've ever had! The shrimp cocktail was great as well, although I didn't feel this was a great value for $22, but the cocktail sauce was great. My favorite taste here was the one night stand espresso martini--so sweet and delicious yet I could feel that it was still a strong drink! Best tasting drink I've had in quite a while Overall I will for sure be back for the drinks and patio view/vibe. The food is pricy, but very good and worth it if you are ready to splurge! read more

We finally made it out to try Salted Edge! I was unsure of what to expect but the food blew me away. The interior is very minimalist and modern looking (we went during the holiday season and I wish it was a bit more decorated). The music was odd for how upscale the restaurant is but overall it was such a great experience with our the food and the service. We ordered a couple of bread boards to start. Each bread was so different and came with the most amazing specialty salt on the side. The Herb Butter Buns were my favorite. For dinner we ordered the classic burger, truffle risotto, another truffle risotto but instead of shrimp she added salmon, pear balsamic pizza, pepperoni pizza, steak and fries, and the surf and turf meal. For sides, brussels sprouts and cauliflower. The drinks were also a 10/10 phenomenal. We ordered an espresso martini, hot toddy, spicy marg (Don't be salty, Chef!), beer, and old fashions. The spicy marg was definitely my favorite. Of course the entire experience wouldn't have been complete without trying the desserts. We ordered two desserts - the butterscotch bourbon creme brulee, and the pistachio cheesecake. Both desserts were truly incredible, if you can only get one, not much can beat butterscotch! If you are looking for an elevated dining experience in the Omaha area, this should be on your list! Hot Tips: - The espresso martini is very espresso forward, not too creamy - The spicy marg (Don't be salty, Chef!) is the perfect summer drink but also just a great drink in general - The steak and fries is worth every penny - Try the butterscotch dessert before anything else read more

We had a yummy & lovely time! But dang was it expensive, and we usually don't care what a meal costs! it was all really good and like nothing I've ever had before, shrimp on a deviled egg, who would have thought, but that was my favorite item we ordered. My husband's favorite item we ordered was the Bread Board, specifically the Corn Bread! My favorite was all the specific butters for each bread, wow they really thought that entire board through with all the little details. Service was top notch. They were always there refilling waters, checking in, and asking if we needed anymore drinks and food orders! Bringing new silverware for each dish, running down the drink & food menu since it was our first time, she explained the restaurant and the chef and his background, which was really cool to get that knowledge! The building is updated, modern, beautiful space, love the indoor and outdoor seating, love that parking is close, and plenty of it! We did have 6:15pm reservations, showed up at 6pm and table wasn't ready, waited about 10 minutes and it was ready for us! HIGHLY recommend reservations for any night! Tables were close to one another, but it wasn't loud enough to hear other conversations, and the place was FULL the entire time we were there! Food was quick, we were in and out in a little over an hour! Everything was played so nicely and looked really thought through! read more

Immaculate is an understatement. From the atmosphere, to the staff, to the food, it was all incredible! Although it was all delicious, the Brown Butter Bourbon Crème Brûlée, Scallops and Risotto from the shrimp dish were true standouts. Chef Joel has curated a menu that encompasses a wide range of options that make it possible for everyone to find something they enjoy! The staff went above and beyond! I prefer a sweet wine (mainly moscato) and our waiter helped to find me a sweet white that was absolutely delightful with my scallops. And to top it all off, after being nervous about an 8:15 seating (a bit late for us) as we walked out we were offered a box of leftover donuts from Sugared Ledge. Absolutely made my husband's night! And with a quick pop in the microwave the next morning they were as good as fresh! read more

50 Went for brunch,, we had 13 people in a reserved room. Our waitress was trying her best but was so busy with other tables ( she should have been assigned to the room only ) Food was cold, were out of steak and eggs, also out of breakfast potatoes because everyone got French fries with their meal. Everyone had their meal and one person was waiting a while for theirs. Couple of people had to send their eggs back. Totally under cooked. Highly disappointed and most everyone said they would not come back ! Food read more

Absolutely terrible. The food has no flavor or is too salty, over cooked, and served the wrong temps. Fruit was warm, eggs cold.

Service was excellent. I had the aged ribeye, which was cooked to perfection (MR). My wife had the salmon which was also prepared excellently. We shared the lobster Mac and cheese which was also very good. Noise level was not too bad, I'd give it a 3 on a scale of 1-5. Only disappointment was the drinks being over priced, short pours. read more

The SiL chose this as her birthday dinner and I was ECSTATIC to try a bison steak so it was full steam ahead to this restaurant after work. We walked into a wonderfully elegant restaurant that felt modern and to air on the side of finer dining. We were greeted by our waitress Brittnee and she knew that menu inside and out, what was hip and how to describe everything as well as give insight to possible tastes. Probably one of the best waitresses I've had the chance to experience so far. We started off with the bread board and all the breads could honestly make you want to make fresh bread every day for the rest of your life and turn your nose up at the bread aisle in any store. The corn bread was extremely moist and had a wonderful frosting on it. Absolutely a must have as an appetizer. The bison steak was tender with a very beautiful earthy flavor and cooked absolutely perfect. However I think the Salmon really shined here because I am still trying to remember what was with that corn because I could eat that with the salmon every single day and not get tired of it. I was barely able to snap the photo before the misses had that plate cleared. I did not taste the lobster bisque but saw that yelp needed photos for many of the items so I snapped the brother in laws. The drinks are something I only wish I could create. In all, I strongly recommend this restaurant. For date night, a business meeting, or a random urge to eat delicious food from a chef that studied in France. You really can't go wrong. read more
