I'm not from the Omaha area. I found my new favorite burger place, if you can call it that. My lady had the breakfast burrito. It was massive, bursting from the seams with bacon and flavor. The green chili was perfect and the other ingredients are fresh. I had the Italian Burger with a side of fries. Let's start with the deep fried potato sticks first. They were piping hot. For an unsalted French fry, they were tasty. Portion size was good. Now to the main event, the burger. The bun was warm, dense, buttery, and lightly grilled. If they don't bake them I house, then there must be a bakery across the street. The marinara sauce IS made in house. Rich, bold, and overflowing with goodness. This sauce drizzled over there hand-made patty. This was no ordinary beef patty. This was a 1/2 pound of Italian infused beefy goodness. The cheese was gooey, hot, and everywhere! This burger is by no means "beard friendly" but that's what napkins are for. Service was top notch. The staff was super friendly and professional. Everyone was upbeat. They treated me like a regular and after this experience, I will be. This is my destination for all foodstuffs when I'm traveling. I didn't have a chance to talk to the owner, but he seems oldschool and laid back. He was chatting with a group of regulars. The atmosphere was awesome. The prices are great. Same price as a Burger King, but trust me. You won't get the same experience. 10/10 my new favorite burger place.

After placing our order we set a long time waiting on the order to be brought out. When our food finally arrived, the food temperature was warm and not hot like it was freshly prepared. We ordered a burger meal and the chicken fried steak breakfast. There was long straight hair in the white gravy and in the hash browns. After hearing conversation from the kitchen about not being racist and other comments I decided to bring my phone out and record the rest of the conversation and record the hair in my food. I chose to ignore the comments and not let it ruin my day but my dinning companion chose to bring it up to the waitress. The waitress did go back and talk to the kitchen help about their conversations. Sadly the waitress never came to the table and asked if we wanted refills or how was everything. When she brought the check back saying she took it off the bill she asked if we wanted refills but long before that my dining experience was ruined. We choose to still tip being waitress / waiters don't get paid a lot and basic their income off their tips. Nice decor and location but staffs need more training.

The burger patty made the burger. Real meat and obviously hand done. The meat was high quality. Got a chance to talk to the owner and found out the meat is delivered daily from a family owned local meat processor (bonus: you get to support two local businesses at one time when you eat here). The food is simple and real. The flavor feels wholesome. The service is friendly and familiar. I was fortunate enough to watch the restaurant fill up with regulars for lunch and hear them all greeted by name. A restaurant that had that many happy regulars has some magic. I'm pretty sure it is the family that owns and operates it. The neighborhood it is in is on the upswing with so many cool historic building. The restaurant has all the eclectic charm and character that it's years of history would demand. All around a great spot for lunch. I look forward to trying breakfast, here.

We came here after a long day at the zoo. The staff was friendly and we were seated right away. Our food came out quick and did not disappoint. We all ordered burgers except one child ordered a mickey mouse pancake. The pancake was as big as her plate! The burgers don't come with fries so we ordered 2 baskets and a basket of onion rings. The burgers are big and juicy. Everything inside is clean and exactly the type of place we look for when travelling. We like those small restaurants in the towns we are in. It was awesome. There is parking on the street, but also a small lot in the back. We forgot some sunglasses and the waiter ran them out to us before we left.
