Saturday night was a night for adventure. Mostly everyone was out of town, the big game came on at 6:30 and we were looking for somewhere new to eat.It also happens to be restaurant week in Omaha so menus are posted and unusual spots are featured like this one in North Omaha just west of the Mormon Bridge. It feels like a highway cafe, very casual and the prices were moderate.
We both had the Restaurant week special which included choices from the appetizer, entree and dessert menu. Normally we are not big dessert fans but the price was right so...
We both ordered the same thing, a Black and Bleu flatiron steak with different sides. Mine, grilled veggies and hers, garlic mashed potatoes. Opposite night! For the appetizer we had Short Rib Flatbread and Artichoke dip with crostini. Both were delicious but the dip was under seasoned.
The steaks were cooked perfectly and generous portions. Then came dessert, we chose the Churros and the Bread Pudding in Whiskey sauce. That was a hit. The Churros and chocolate sauce were room temp but would have been better hot. All in all the wait staff was attentive and pleasant.
Nice place, far away for us, at a decent price. Very casual, truck stop kind of feel.
