2 Best Restaurants in Omaha, Nebraska

This has been the place in Omaha for mouthwatering steaks, seafood, and Midwestern dishes since it first opened its doors in 1922. At lunchtime it caters to a casual and business crowd, adding a range of sandwiches, salads, chicken, and fish dishes to the steak for which it is known. The selection expands further come evening, with ribs, lobster tail, and more on the menu. All of the beef served here is sourced from the Midwest.

The Midwest is known as America’s farmland, and fortunately for Omahans, the farm-to-table dining concept has started to take off, at least at midtown’s Grey Plume. The menu at this fine-dining restaurant changes based on the seasonal availability of produce, but may include roasted steelhead trout, the house burger, and chicken, rabbit, and pork from named local farms. The international wine list also contains a range of craft beers. Unlike in many similar restaurants, not everything is local, and you may find items from as far away as Oregon or Alaska, but the restaurant has impressive "green" credentials, ranging from choice of ingredients to building materials and energy efficiency.
