    Spaghetti Works- chicken alfredo
    Dina V.

    We walked all around looking for something to eat and ended up at Spaghetti Works. It actually reminded me of Spaghetti Factory with the old timey feel and decor. Service was mediocre at best. Our server seemed annoyed to have to serve us but whatever. Maybe she was having a bad day? Food was just okay as well. I think the best part for me was the salad bar. I opted for the eggplant parmesan and spaghetti with meat sauce. I make a better meat sauce TBH and the parmesan felt like it wasn't heated all the way through. Mr had the chicken parmesan and he said he's definitely had better and the spaghetti with red sauce needed something. The only person happy with her food was our daughter who got the chicken Alfredo. Even the complimentary bread was sad, literally looks like the stuff I buy in the frozen section of the grocery store. I'd say the only thing they did right, the cheese curds. We love us some cheese curds, why do they only have them in the middle of the country?

    Clam sauce with spaghetti

    We were walking around downtown looking for a place that we wouldn't have to wait for. We were seated right away and took in all the fun decor around us. I liked the variety in the menu options and the high affordability of items. We ordered the beercheese spaghetti and their pick 3 trio entree (clam sauce, meat sauce, and beer cheese), each entree also gives you unlimited access to their salad bar. I liked the salad bar options, there was so much to choose from. Staff were good about maintaining the salad bar which was nice. The staff that waited on us did have much of a sense of urgency even when they were very full of patrons. We waited for 10 minutes before getting our drinks and having our orders taken, which left us a little unhappy, however, food was served up quickly and quality of food was good.

    2 Slices of Garlic Cheese Bread

    Stopped in on a Friday night at 6pm expecting a wait, we were seated right away and greated promptly and ... because we've been here so many times we ordered immediately! Salad bar was okay.. lettuce seemed a little old and it was quite messy, but I believe they came to tidy it up right after we went through so we may have just come through after a big rush. We both had angel hair pasta, my daughter got beer cheese- I prefer a beer cheese/hot naked melody. Garlic bread was tasty, definitely a different bread than before- but actually really liked it more than any other visit! Our server was so sweet, she made a point to check in often and really gave great service! Restrooms were in need of attention and I really feel like that is one ongoing area this location struggles with. We left full and happy, the positives significantly outweighed the negatives!

    Lobster Sensation

    Indoor and outdoor seating. Huge overall with a salad bar. Loved the garlic bread. Reasonably priced. Italian sodas weren't too bad and had plenty of flavor. I ordered the lobster sensation and it was a bit bland.

    Our first test for here. B says she was here years ago. Have a variety of foods requested now. Pasta both. Family type place. Not our usual choice, but good so far. And all is real good

    Spaghetti Works is located in heart of downtown of Omaha. The woman at the reception was a little arrogant yet the bartender was a very sweet, warm man. I got a takeout of chicken Parmesan spaghetti. The food tasted mediocre. It came with a side of Garlic bread wish was quite nice. There is parking available right outside the restaurant. One can give Spaghetti Works a miss.

    Cute seating area, plenty space! Wait was fair, even thou it was Sat at around 6. Staff was nice and friendly.. The environment was clean, and the food was really good! Highly recommend the eggplant parmesan and clam appetizers

    Salad bar
    Jana J.

    I've been to this place dozens of times in the last decade--it is a staple for my family! The most impressive part is the price--$12.50 for this meal which included unlimited salad bar, and unlimited bowls of pasta (yes you can change your noodle and sauce!!)! The salad bar is much higher quality than you would expect--this is always my favorite part. The pasta is fine, nothing exceptional, but the Cajun with added peppers and parm was great!

    Cozy booth view

    Cozy booth, glass of chianti and warm garlic bread straight from the oven. Mmmm John was an excellent server, knowledgeable, friendly, prompt and accommodating. The atmosphere is classic Italian with fun decor to enjoy as you wait for lunch or dinner. Fettuccine Alfredo was delicious. Clam strip appetizer was good for Midwestern seafood. A very nice Sunday afternoon visit

FOOD : we got a few orders - but i personally ordered the gluten free pizza with cheese, basil, and banana peppers. It wasn't too greasy which i liked and it had just the right amount of flavor in all the places it needed it. I love that it was straight out of the brick oven and cooked to perfection. I got the gluten free crust because it only had olive oil, whereas the other normal gluten pizzas have a mixture of olive oil oil and soy bean oil. The pizza was light because the crust was thin, but I still prefer the double zero Italian flour over the American flour overall it was a good pizza and I enjoyed it, however, still probably not in my top favorites for omaha! The table at large really enjoyed their pizzas, I think if you just want a quick basic pizza that's good and better than going to a fast food spot, this is a good choice, but if you're looking for high quality ingredients with local sourcing, this isn't it. Alas, it was still really good and we enjoyed our food! SERVICE : it definitely gave a mom and pop feel, we had exceptionally kind Service and really enjoyed the people that we met. They were extremely helpful and made it feel homey! ATMOSPHERE : Very much so a hole in the wall - I'm not going to lie, I was a bit turned off by the ceilings and the cleanliness of the place. I get a little bit freaked out when it comes to atmosphere / food so this was a bit of a downfall for me!

The pizza is great good amount of toppings but not too much, flavorful sauce, crust has a nice crisp but still has that chew you want.

    Ordered carry-out from Piezon's this evening…read more You know how pizzarias sometimes give you a bogus 40-minute wait time and then when you show up, your pizza has been in the warming oven forever? Not the case at Piezon's. I arrived five minutes early, waited five minutes, and there it was. That said, my portobello fries were being boxed up when I arrived, so, I feared for the worst. Not a problem. When I got in the car, the starving occupants immediately dove in. The "fries" were hot, they were crunchy, they were delicious! I could eat these all day, but hold that ranch dressing and give me a salt packet or two. I loved these! That well-timed pizza, well, it cooled significantly in a four-mile drive home, and when we opened the box, the pizza was just a little less than inviting. This was a black olive/mushroom pizza. Lots of olives, so thumbs up to that. Razor-thin mushrooms though didn't add much to the experience. And cheese, well, I like a little pull to the bite, and that wasn't happening here. Not enough cheese? Wrong cheese? Not a lot of flavor. Crust? Also not a lot of flavor. Not a lot of crunch or chew, and the sauce is spread pretty thin. I "think" the sauce had good flavor, but if I tried this place again, I might diner in, get extra sauce, extra cheese and extra mushrooms ... that's a lot of extra just to make it basic. I did hear though, that if you dine in, they have a fantastic margarita! (The drink, not the pizza.)

    Mootz isn't just the best pizza place in Omaha, it's in the running for the best Omaha restaurant…read morePERIOD! I was blown away by every aspect of Mootz. Get ready for a novel of a review! I warned you... The exterior of Mootz is basically the same as all of Countryside Village (which is probably a requirement), but the inside is a different story! The interior is all white and bright, and super clean. They really let the food and service do the talking without needing to dress the place up (which I appreciate!) The star of the show is their Acunto brick oven. It's gigantic, with white tile, and their Mootz name at the top. They had it made in Naples and it was definitely worth doing that for this amazing centerpiece of the space. And the oven is not just for looks, it puts out some of the best pizza I have ever had. I am not usually a fan of pizza crust, and only eat the main "body" of each slice, but at Mootz, even the dough and crust is flavorful and tasty! It has a salty and (super) semi-sweet flavor. It makes each slice all the better. That's just an example of how much they obviously care about the product they are producing. We got to chat with many of the staff, including Mootz himself, his dad, and others, who were all extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. My husband and I are doing the ABCs of Omaha restaurants we haven't been to yet, and Mootz was our M pick. We didn't plan to tell them that's what we were doing, but when two people are ordering two whole pizzas, there's a little bit of explanation needed - LOL! Once they knew that was what we were doing, they made sure to help us pick the slices to try that they loved best, and based on what we were craving. What's great about Mootz is that you can order just a single slice of a certain flavor, or get a full pie of different flavored slices. Because of this, we were able to try 8 different flavors of pizza! We ordered slices of the Buffalo Chicken, Cheeseburger, Chicken Alfredo, and Jalapeño Oaxaca for one pizza, and then the second pie we did a lot of the normal pizza flavors, so slices of the Cheese, Pepperoni, Supreme, and Margherita. They were ALL fantastic (and I am not exaggerating), but our favorites were the Cheeseburger, Buffalo Chicken, Margherita, and Jalapeño Oaxaca. I'm a cheeseburger girlie and I achingly missed the Cheeseburger Pizza that Pizza Shoppe (RIP) used to have. But no more missing that flavor - the Mootz version is so great, it has satiated that craving! The Buffalo Chicken was BOMB! Not too spicy of a buffalo at all, and the chicken is juicy and flavorful. They make their own Ranch too, and the Buffalo Chicken dipped in that was perfection. (And in mentioning the house made ranch, we also had a side salad that we shared, with that ranch, and it was awesome - very well dressed and with lots of veggies!) The Jalapeño Oaxaca was a fave because I appreciated the heat that the jalapeño gave, and the crema on top giving it a creaminess that counterbalanced the spiciness. The surprise of the day was the Margherita! I normally don't order Margherita pizza just because it's not too full of toppings or flavor usually - but that's not the case at Mootz. The dough being so flavorful works wonderfully with their delicious pizza sauce, basil, and SO much cheese (parm, Romano, mozzarella). It's a lighter slice if you aren't wanting anything too heavy, but that doesn't mean it's not big on flavor! And to round out the meal, they have some awesome desserts too. We tried the tiramisu and the chocolate chip cookies. Tiramisu is my favorite dessert, but my husband on the other hand does not super enjoy it (since he's not a coffee lover). But we BOTH loved the tiramisu at Mootz! It comes in a little cup and it's almost "crumbled" (vs layered, like a normal tiramisu slice), which gives each bite a little bit of each layered flavor. Yum! The chocolate chip cookies were on point too; chewy, sweet, soft, and definitely homemade. We made a great decision to try Mootz for our M restaurant, because it was so dang amazing. I definitely recommend you go here for your next night out, immediately, right now! Do it!
