    First time at West End Omaha and I'm already plotting my return. Showed up yesterday on a random snowy afternoon while visiting friends in the area--heard nothing but good things, and wow, it delivered. Walked in around 2:30 pm on a total snow day and basically had the place to myself, which was kind of perfect. The vibe inside is exactly what I want in a bar: dark, moody, a little sexy, with dim lighting and rich wood tones. Total escape from the bland strip-mall parking lot outside. Night-and-day difference the second you step through the door. Happy hour runs every day until 6 pm (huge win), so I grabbed the Toasted & Roasted martini for $9--yes, it comes with a toasted marshmallow garnish that actually works--and it was dangerously good. Sweet, smoky, strong... one of those drinks you sip slowly because you don't want it to end. Paired it with the buffalo chicken sliders + fries and demolished everything. Sliders were spicy without being overkill, sauce was on point, and the fries were perfectly crispy. Service was friendly and quick even though it was quiet, and the bartender checked in just the right amount. Prices felt fair (especially with happy hour), and the whole experience just felt... cool. Like the kind of neighborhood spot you brag about finding. Already texted my local friends that they've been sleeping on this place. West End Omaha, I'll be back--hopefully next time with a bigger group so we can try more of the menu. Highly recommend!

    I visited WestEnd with some friends to celebrate a birthday. The space is pretty large, and we had no problem getting a table. I was really impressed with the large cocktail menu, and I was so happy that they had quite a few true mocktails since I'm pregnant. I tried the virgin spicy marg, which was great and definitely spicy! I also had the brisket quesadilla which was very tasty. Thursdays is 25% off if you show your teacher badge :)

    It was packed inside - definitely hopping on a Friday night. But the service was still fast, friendly, and helpful. And the music selection was great, playing old (Take Me Home Country Roads by John Denver) and new (A Bar Song by Shaboozey) hits. I loved my blueberry lemon mule, and my husband enjoyed the watermelon special. The Really, Really Onion dip was phenomenal (the house chips are some of the best I've ever had), and the dumplings were pretty good too. Brussel sprouts were a little crispier than I like, but that's entirely a preference thing.

    Met up with a friend for happy hour on a Thursday and we grabbed a spot on the covered patio! I had a Captain & Coke, and my friend went with the French Blonde. For appetizers, we shared the truffle fries and the crispy roasted Brussels sprouts (hands down the highlight of the night). If I could figure out how to make those at home, they'd be a weekly staple. So flavorful, with a hint of BBQ glaze and crispy bacon bits that added the perfect crunch. Our server was friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back!

    What a cute and cozy atmosphere! You walk in and just seat yourself & the waiter came over with water very quickly upon our arrival. They also had a heated patio area that you can sit at too. The drinks were sweet but not overly sweet and didn't have that strong alcohol taste, which I prefer! I was also glad they had a pick 3 option as well because there were so many things that I wanted to try and I was glad I went with the pick 3 because everything was exceptional. I will definitely be back!

    This is a great spot for drinks and apps. If you're looking for a couples night out, this definitely has a great vibes. It's informal but upscale-ish. Like you could dress up, or dress down and fit right in. We came on a Saturday night. I opted for an espreso martini, it's a little creamier than i care for but it was still good. Like a crazy person I switched to a spicy skinny marg. I liked it. I like that they have an extensive mocktail menu, and 1/2 strength drinks! We also got some apps and some entrees. Very good portions, a little pricey, but not too much else to mention. Service is quick, bathrooms were clean, and the food was great! It's not just bar food, they really put effort into their menu.

    Yummy Gummy Martini

    Came for the yummy gummy martini stayed for a light lunch. We had the chicken quesadilla and meatballs. Would absolutely order both again! The staff were friendly and were quick to serve and help us.

    We came within the first hour of opening today. Service was a friendly smile and attitude. Definitely good service to start. The room is dimly lit for intimate conversations. Plenty of seating and they had patio service as well if we wanted. Neat artwork on the walls and two big screens that were playing music videos throughout our time there. Our drinks came out quickly. We ordered the pick 3: crispy brussel sprouts, truffle fries, grilled wings/west wing style. They came out in decent time but weren't quite hot.. more like they had been left room temp for a lil longer than finish to table. The fries were good despite their temperature. Very crispy and a nice aioli to pair with. The brussels were also delicious despite temperature. Very tasty. The wings were the hottest thing on the tray. So juicy and flavorful. Would definitely get again! So I assume they made the fries and brussels before the wings were done. I didn't find it bothersome enough to speak up. Still don't but can see how others might. Perhaps they need to do a different way of preparing so that everything is hot and fresh not just one of three. Just my take! As for drinks. I got the BestEnd Margarita which was alright in comparison to others. Not the best. I then got the Buchanan's colada off the limited time menu and that was fire! Should be permanently on the menu but that's my taste. My friend got the strawberry martini hold the spice and she enjoyed it. Overall decent first time and will try again if out that way

    Blueberry lemon mule
    Nikki J.

    Visited with a friend for a weeknight happy hour. It's an upscale but comfortable vibe inside, and we grabbed seats at the bar. Nice cocktail and martini menu, I tried a mule and a margarita. Presentation was nice and cocktails were refreshing. We also shared the "pick 3" appetizer. There is plenty of food to share and all very good! The bartender was very friendly and checked on us often. Will definitely keep this spot in the happy hour rotation!

    Hummus

    We went for HH & took advantage of their drinks & appetizers menu. Their cocktails have a flair for sure & what we appreciate is a pour to the top! I have a few favorites, but if you can't choose they have a flight of 4 martinis to sample for $26. Their onion dip with hand cut chips are a must try! I enjoy their chickpea hummus with pita chips, altho I wish they had carrots. They also serve flavorful grilled wings. They have a good selection of bar food/snacks. It's a comfortable setting & we always look forward to going.

    Tried this place for happy hour. There was just a few others in the place when we went. The service was pretty good and the food came out quickly. The cocktail I had was decent. It was sweet but refreshing. The sliders were decent. Overall everything was filling but left me wanting more. The place was quiet and a good place for conversation. May come back for drinks.

    Old fashion
    Lou M.

    Overall a nice place. Went for happy hour and got the old fashion cocktail. That thing was strong. Also tried the brussel sprouts, truffle fries and bacon and all were tasty. Drinks on the more expensive side even at happy hour. Would like to see them about $2 cheaper all around.

    Coming back to social after a couple year hiatus, I felt like I was returning to an old friend. I…read moredon't often get out this west, but I had a blast! As someone who likes to mix and mingle, this is a great social spot, really lives up to the name. Not only did I chat it up with some familiar faces I recognized, my friend and I also ended up sitting with a birthday party. I wouldn't say the service is spectacular, but the environment and the vibes are great. The patio is cool and connects to Four Seasons. IDK if you can actually cross over to it, but we did say hi to folks over there. We had some drinks here after a dinner and it really ended up beig a fun social night. I won't wait as long to come back next time.

    Stopped here for a cocktail around 7:30 PM on Saturday night. About half the tables were taken…read moreinside with three servers. We sat outside on back patio. The bar next-door has a patio that lines the same with Social. We thought it was nice they had a guitarist singing. We waited a few minutes before going inside to get a drink menu and some waters. I feel they had a good selection of mixed drinks on that menu. Still no one came out to take our order so we went inside to get our drinks. I just figured there were no servers for the patio? I enjoyed my drink and at the end of our stay, a server did come out to ask if we needed anything. Overall, good vibe & nice cocktail menu.
