If you like Tiny House, you will enjoy it's sister bar The Platypus. We stopped in for a nightcap after dinner, and I really liked the mismatched vintage vibes. I had an espresso martini. While this was very good, it was the tiniest drink I think I've ever gotten for a NOT tiny price. Because of this, I'm not sure I would return.

I always enjoy the drinks at Platypus and I love that they have some thc infused drinks for my friends who have switched away from alcohol a bit. I'm always confused at how empty the bar is though, I don't know if I'm going at the wrong times or what but I have been here on more than one occasion where my group are the only customers there. Great for a quiet night out if you're looking for it!

Such a fun bar with great vibes. Perfect setting for an intimate cocktail night with friends. A good selection of wines, cocktails, beers, snacks, and sweets. Good seating indoors and outdoors on the patio. Staff was very friendly and service was quick. Prices are fair to the area. The cocktails were tasty and strong.

i've always loved Tiny House Bar and i believe this bar is owned by the same people. i looooved the vibes here- so cute, cozy and 70s. They did so good with the decor, it would be a cute place to snap some cute pictures while out with friends! The service was really nice and attentive. I was confused at first- you sit down and they'll come and take your order, no need to order at the bar (at least when we were there). Our drinks were also delish. Overall we had a really great experience and I would 100% be back. I'm really looking forward to trying their paninis!

The sister bar to Tiny House. Retro vibes, a great patio, and all day Sunday happy hour

I have probably been to this bar at least 10 times since they opened in December.Super cute retro vintage vibe/decor. Bartenders are really chill. I love the cocktails/wine and the cozy bar seats. And they have Block 16 paninis and little dessert pastries! Honestly it's my new favorite bar. Favorite cocktail is the tulani!

The vibes in here are fantastic! I love the 70s chill atmosphere, I told my friend it's like going to someone's house for dinner and a drink. Will definitely be back outside of the girl dinner event to try more fun drinks. It's the sister bar to Tiny House, which always has great craft cocktails. I was looking forward to checking Platypus out for the first time for the Girl Dinner they have from 5-8 on Wed, Thurs, and Sunday. For $28, you get focaccia breadsticks with red pepper dipping sauce, Block 16 homemade chicken nuggets with sauce, and your choice of 3 martinis. I opted for the dirty martini, and it was good, I would've preferred a little more dirty but it was nice and crisp! The food wasn't a hit for me. The breadsticks were good, but some came out overdone on the crispiness and a bit thin. The chicken nuggets were tasty on the inside, they tasted homemade. They were frozen and air fried upon order, which makes sense needing a lot for orders, but it made them a bit soggy and hard in different areas of the nugget. For the price, I was disappointed in the meal but I'd definitely be back for the cocktails!

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!

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!!

My go to is the Tart Cherry Old Fashioned with the option to get it smoked. We also had the French…read more75 and the Sticky Mule. The mule is my least favorite, its a little too ginger heavy. 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.

Our second time at Cattle Call, and it was just as good as the first time. I love that their menu…read morechanges so the offerings were different this time around we stopped in before a show at the Steelhouse, it was an easy walk to and from the venue. We ordered several appetizers and had drinks. The servers were friendly and the food was delicious. The Crudo was fresh and bright with a bite of spice. Burrata was soft and creamy with tamarind, orange and mint. Highly recommend the Steak Tartare the meat was velvety and the timmur chips had a great crunch for a contrast in texture. Lastly, you can't go wrong with an order of Momos, we got them steamed pork and I could have had 3 more orders. We'll definitely be back!

We started with the pork momo. We've had these before and they're always a great choice. The filling was rich and flavorful, the dumpling dough was perfectly chewy and the dipping sauces added another level of depth and flavor. For mains we split the duck breast and the tagliatelle. 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!
