    Had a nice time at the Porch. Staff was very friendly and efficient everyone checked on our table…read moreand refilled drinks and the such. I had the hot pastrami sandwich which was very good love the horseradish sauce that comes on it. My wife got the steak and Mac. She said it was phenomenal. Buddy had the Philly cheesesteak Mac and likes it. Our other friend had the mini corn dogs with onion petals from the all ages kids menu which is so nice when you aren't that hungry to be able to order from. She said they were good as well. I had a mango cart on tap and my wife had an angry orchard bottle as it was the only cider option. Vibes are unique kinda a sports bar but not fully bought into it nicer tables/hightops. Allegedly a cool mirror in the women's restroom our friend said as well. Reasonable prices for great food and staff. Definitely will be back.

    Was visiting Council Bluffs when we came across this place. It's a bar and grill type restaurant…read more It was a little bit busy for being a weekday. The server came right away to give us menus. They have pizza, burgers, sandwiches, and gourmet style Mac & cheese. I ordered pickle fries for the table. Came with ranch dressing. They were tasty with a nice outer crunch. I also got the Smash burger mac & cheese. It was like a big Mac exploded on my mac & cheese minus the bun. It was very good with beef, pickles, onions, and thousand Island dressing. The mac & cheese was nice and creamy. Excellent comfort food. If I'm ever in the area, I would want to try one of the burgers. They looked excellent.

    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!!

    Cute cocktail lounge tucked away in the old market!! I love the patio outside with tables and a…read moreview to people watch. They have a great selection of cocktails, beers, wines, liquor, and some happy hour deals. My mimosas were sweet and fruity. I love the idea of pairing sweet cocktails with a salty snack to have while hanging out. They have tables for large groups or for two, and plenty of seating at the bar. You can also buy popcorn to go if wanted. Prices are a little high, but it does come with a snack, so take that into consideration

    We took the family to 712 Eat + Drink for lunch and overall had a good experience. The food had a…read morelot of promise, though a few dishes felt like they were just slightly off from being great. I had the Cubano sandwich, which was good overall, especially the smoky meat, but I think the coarse-ground mustard overpowered the flavours a bit and dulled the smokiness a bit. A plain yellow mustard might balance the sandwich better and let the smokiness shine through more. The sweet potato fries, however, were excellent. My wife Laura ordered Emily's Salad, which was pleasant and fresh, though we both thought it could have benefited from a little crunch--maybe some seeds or nuts added in. Our daughter Alex had the birria tacos and carne asada fries. The tacos were tasty, though a little on the small side, but the carne asada fries were fantastic. Umai! (I am a Rengoku fan; if you know, you know.) I highly recommend it. Our other daughter, Sam, ordered the birria grilled cheese and elote fries, and both were really good. Her cherryade was especially refreshing. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, though the dining area and patio felt a bit bare. A few plants outside and inside would really warm the place up and give it more character. The music was pretty good with indie hits in there. I also tried the Old Fashioned. It was definitely strong, which I appreciated, but it felt like it was missing a touch of sweetness or something to round it out. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, and I'd absolutely go back and try more on the menu. Their waitstaff was top-notch and really were on their game. The restaurant has good ingredients and solid ideas--it just feels like a few flavour balances could be dialed in a little more.
