Nice new clean fun bar with a great cocktail menu of items to choose from. Our bartender was very knowledgeable about all the different ingredients that combined the concoction to make these drinks sensational!! I believe there's something here for everyone to enjoy. They were fully decorated for Saint Pats Day and are going on one year planning a party to celebrate in May. I believe the summertime will be a lot of fun in their back patio, seating and platform for entertainment! Only downfall is street parking. Good luck on Leavenworth Street. read more

I initially went to True American after seeing the location had a photo booth (which I am a sucker for), and was welcomed by the cutest, 70s inspired bar with colorful lighting, fun groovy wallpaper, and a variety of seating to catch up with friends. It was the perfect setting for my bestie and I to take cute photos together, sip pretty drinks, and chat. The bartenders were helpful and attentive, but we opted for mocktails which were not very impressive. They seemed to be pineapple juice and maybe water, so we did not finish them. Next time I would like to try one of their cocktails instead. Overall, we still had a great time and I would like to try some more options on the menu. read more

Chill cocktail bar with a lively crowd. They have a decent amount of seating with tables and room at the bar. The Damien cocktail was sweet and creamy. The Dude was almost like a White Russian. The espresso martini was large but tastes heavily of black licorice. Service was decent and prices are a little high read more

Husband and I decided to stop in a whim last night. First impression is that the place is spacious with a chill vibe. We liked that the music wasn't playing super loud and you could talk to each other easily. I like the wallpapers 70's Vibe. Their drink menu is really expansive I think anyway could find something they like. The bartender was the nonchalant type but you could tell he was experienced. I asked what their sweetest drink was and he asked did I want him to make him something. I took him up on his offer and was glad I did. The drink had a subtle sweetness and freshness to it. One of the best drinks I've had in a bar. My husband ordered the bragging rights drink and loved his selection as well. I think we will definitely be back! read more

Stopped by around 8:30 on Saturday and the place quickly filled up. The crowd was a huge variety of all different types of people, so I really feel that most everyone would feel comfortable and welcome here. Drinks are a little pricey, but I was grateful they had some NA options and I had a few Athletic brewing NA IPAs. Bartenders were fine, no complaints there. I didn't interact with them much. We sat at a table at the booths by the window, and didn't have any service to our seat. We ordered at the bar each time. The place got pretty packed pretty quickly. My chair was hit by people lots of times as they tried to squeeze by. There is a weird flow of high tops and the booths and the bar, and it seemed like there wasn't a great path or way to get past the crowds. Nothing they can really do to solve this, just an observation. Decor and vibe were laid back and fun, not a dance party, but lively. read more

True American is a fun addition to Leavenworth. The decor is very mid century, and we were there around Christmas, where they had the placed decked out in decor. Add in the moody lighting, and it really sets the vibes. Prices are a little high at $14/cocktail , so to me, this is a "one drink stop" unless I'm ready to splurge a bit. All the drink options are interesting, so you're definitely paying for quality and creativity. We had a server take our orders at the table. He was kind and helpful in navigating the menu. One small thing, the women's restroom was a mess and only 1 of the stalls had toilet paper. A worker had come in to also use the restroom, and she seemed aware of the issue but didn't appear to address it. read more

I stopped in around 4pm on a Saturday, as I was next door for a reception. It was quiet, with a few patrons in house. This was nice because it allowed me to chat with the bartender, who took a generous amount of time explaining some of the cocktails to me. I started with opted for a spicier margarita, but then I look to my left, and I see what looks like the most delectable espresso martini. they shared that they back wash the vodka, and while I still don't know what that means, it did ensure that it was absolutely fabulous. I enjoyed and savored every sip. They are pricier, to me, an older millenial, but it was worth every penny. Everything about this bar is inviting, the huge windows, the cool decor, the retro wall paper, and the staff. They made me feel welcome as a solo patron. Will definitely be back hopefully with group! read more

There isn't a parking lot so you're stuck parking in the neighborhood which is a little chaotic. There's a few sharable snack options. We tried the Good Ass Popcorn (Chicago mix) and Chips & Salsa. They hit the spot for a little happy hour snack. The cocktail menu is super fun. A little pricey but it's part of the experience. They had Tank 7 on tap which is also a green flag for me at a bar . Great spot to happy hour with friends!!! read more

What a cute bar! This bar has small town feel meets liberal energy meets celebratory aesthetic :) the service was quick, kind, and helpful! There is a small outdoor area and a photo booth to take cute pics (wasn't working when we went but tons on the wall). The drinks aren't too strong but have a nice little kick to them while tasting amazing. ~$14 for a cocktail which is a little bit more than I typically like to pay but their drinks are on the more unique side so I found it well worth the money! read more

The only "negative " I have is the parking. Solve that by using side streets or braving Leavenworth after 6 and it's all good. The place is great. The drinks are clever. The bartenders are good cheer and good conversation. The room is cheery and well-lit. Seating is plentiful. All in all pleasurable. I recommend them! read more

They charged me 3 times on my card last night. I only had two drinks and one of them was alcohol so being under the influence and making a mistake would not have been a contributor. I had ordered one drink which I started a tab with. Second guy comes around to help, I get another drink and he asked if I got a tab open, I said yes and he gave me the drink. However, when I closed my tab, all of sudden he told me I wasn't being charged or the tab never was opened by the other guy (which weird bc he took my card). So he ended up charging me only for my last drink, I of course did not get receipt because I usually never do. However, seeing my bank account this morning, I see two other charges of $30 and $36??? This is ridiculous. I get bar life is busy but communicate with eachother to ensure no one is getting charged 2-3 times or losing track on a tab. I will be getting a hold of them but I for sure will not be back. Don't play with people's money. read more

Ginger bar maid did me a solid charges the wife's rose toy for me. Smelled weird after. Great service, passionate eye contact. I love him but I hate him so much also he had good breath read more

We stopped in right at open for a drink before an event we were attending. My wife wanted the espresso martini, she said it was great maybe the best in town especially if you're looking for that coffee kick and flavor. I had an old fashioned which was made properly and had the big single ice cube which always is a plus. Bartenders were friendly. Definitely will be back with friends in the evenings. read more

Nice bar. Great atmosphere. Nice people. Ordered 2 mixed drinks and a tall boy $27.00. Can't afford to come here too often. ​​ read more

Pricey, but definitely a vibe. Cocktails run around $14. The food was $6 for a hotdog (I did not order any food). They do have your regular beers, but they their thing is their craft drinks. There was a very rowdy crowd there on Saturday night. The bartenders took care of it immediately. Shout out to them for de escalating that situation. Overall, decent but if you are waiting on Payday you might need to find a dive til read more

Great place to meet near downtown with a beautiful patio setting. Excellent drinks and alcohol forward. Friendly wait staff and premium cocktails!! The only drawback is no private parking lot, street parking only. read more

True American Bar And Spirits - Velvet Itch, bourbon, peychauds bitters, falernum, fig, rosemary, simple, cranberry, lime - Bars Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

True American is the best bar on Leavenworth. Really. Are you looking for Nite Owl vibes with a golden disco ball? This is the place for you. In addition to being one of the few bars in Omaha that has Old Style, there's a big focus on craft cocktails. If you're into wine, they have a red, a white, and something sparkly. No champagne on tap, but not necessary with the kind of menu you're getting. Good mix of classics and interesting takes with the cocktails. The decor is vegan leather and gold, with enough glitz and glamour to take it to classy level. They're not afraid to get weird, though, because there was a Nick Cage movie playing on the TV tucked in the corner. The photo booth is a big draw, with different printouts plastered through the bar to showcase the cream of the crop. The clientelle is chatty and polite, but is split into the usual groups of couples at the bar, groups at the large tables, and foursomes at the hightops. There's a patio with ashtrays at every table and umbrellas at half of the them, so it's definitely a great place to take a breather. Music choice is top notch. Fits the atmosphere with a bass-heavy focus but not thumping in your chest. Ranges between alt, indie, funk, and a few other genres. Groovy, not dancey. Snacks are good but minimal since there's no kitchen. They have food trucks come by often, and even some events with house food on the grill. I've been on Leavenworth. I've crawled up and down Leavenworth. I've stumbled back from Leavenworth. True American is worth a visit, again and again and again. read more

True American is a fun bar off Leavenworth that is definitely worth checking out! I love the decor, from the warm wood to the fun, 70's wallpaper and disco ball. The patio is a great spot for a nice night out, and is perfect for a fun night with friends! The photo booth is a lot of fun as well, though a little expensive to use. The drinks are good, and they have some great specialty cocktails on the menu. Both times I've visited, the waitresses were super nice and had great suggestions. I enjoyed the spicy margarita I ordered one visit because it was refreshing, though it wasn't very spicy at all. True American always has a fun feel, and I've always visited earlier in the night, but is a nice relaxing environment. This is a great spot to get together with friends, because of lots of comfortable seating and it not being too loud to have a conversation. There are games available too, which is fun! They have special events with food trucks, comedians, and more, so definitely check those out! read more

Checked out this bar on a Saturday evening. Crowd picked up around 9:45. The Christmas lights, skeletons and Photo Booth were big hits with my group. The espresso martinis were delicious! read more

Is this bar named after the True American episode of New girl? I'm not sure, but I'd like to think so! My friend and I went out for drinks after work and decided to give it a try. The inside was nicely decorated, the bathrooms were very clean, and there is also an outdoor patio. This bar had only been open about 9 days so service was a little slow. The drinks were fairly pricey. I ordered a dirty martini that was just okay. The olive seemed to be infused with something, maybe garlic? I feel this drink needs some work as it left me wanting more of a classic dirty martini. The bar is located right off Leavenworth Street, so be prepared to park in the neighborhood. read more

The Bartender that served us was very unfriendly . Didn't want to make any suggestions and seemed very disinterested in us. No eye contact

Some of the most creative cocktails goin in town. Good vibe, nice patio, great service! Keep it up!

THIEVES! WAITRESS TIPED HERSELF 30$. I payed my tab and was leaving a cash tip on the table. Only for her to scream across the bar " hey asshole I don't work for free". I left money on the table and tried telling her that but she was to busy screaming. Two days later I got the charge and she added her own 30$ tip. Went back and tried talking with the owner/manager but he was drunk and started calling me names, and I thought they weren't suppose to drink on the job but oh well. In the end I got my 30$, but if you want want to avoid all this avoid this place read more
