Old fashioned comfort food served in an old fashioned atmosphere. Our waitress was very friendly, helpful and patient with us. We started out with a half order of their famous onion rings. The basket they brought us was very large. They were nicely battered large pieces of onion. We both liked them a lot. The only fault I found with them was that they were slightly greasy. My wife ordered the beef taco salad. It was huge. It had beef, lettuce, onion, tomato, black olives and cheddar cheese in a tortilla bowl. Sour cream, salsa and your choice of dressing is served on the side. My wife loved it. I started out with a bowl of beef goulash soup. It was loaded with beef chunks and vegetables. It was absolutely delicious. For my main dish I had the beef stroganoff. The menu says it is served over egg noodles, my noodles were not egg noodles. None the less, it was very good. The gravy was lightly seasoned and there were large chunks of beef in it. I enjoyed it very much. We finished our meal by sharing a piece of chocolate peanut butter pie. It was the perfect end to our meal. We will be back, if not only try some of their famous chicken.
This family run business has the best customer service from one of the owners at the bar to the waiters/waitresses, bus staff, etc. They seem happy to work there and go above and beyond to remember everything ordered, refilling drinks, being upbeat about the restaurant. The food was the most excellent and homemade....bread, onion rings, chicken, steak, shrimp, pie, soup....you name it you won't be disappointed for a good price. Just a wonderful place with kind service and the best food!
Comfort food that I give an A. The chicken is great. Like grandma use to make. Chicken fried steak good too. The brown gravy that comes with the mash potatoes is so good it would even be good on an old shoe. Well not really but, its just that good. The salad bar was not good and the wood floor for some reason was very slippery. I don't know if was from a cleaner they use or if it was grease.

Decent traditional American cuisine like you'd find in a diner (Meatloaf, Fried Chicken, Hot Beef Sandwiches, Chicken Fried Steak, and so forth).
I ordered their Chicken Fried Steak dinner which was not on the menu, but on special. The waitress told us it's available everyday and so they should just put it on the menu already. She asked me if I wanted brown or white gravy. I chose white, but instead of getting a white cream/country/sausage gravy I got a yellow chicken gravy. I hope that was a mistake and not what they typically do. Why would anyone want to dip their steak in chicken gravy? I ordered the gravy on the side as I don't like the gravy making the fried batter on my Chicken Fried Steak soggy. The steak itself was cooked well and they nailed the texture, but it was just kind of bland. It seems they rely entirely on the gravy to provide it with any real flavor.
The onion rings were good. Made in-house, battered not breaded, but lacked seasoning. The batter really needs to be seasoned or they need salted the moment they come out of the fryer. You cannot salt onion rings at your table and expect the salt to stay on them. I applaud them for making their own onion rings and not serving that same old tired Sysco crap that most other restaurants do, but they need to salt them!
Macaroni and Cheese was okay. The waitress said they made it themselves, but it tasted like a hybrid to me. That is, they're taking a mass-market boxed product and then sprinkling some cheese on top, throwing it in the oven, and then calling it their own. It's not my idea of a good homemade oven-baked macaroni and cheese.
This place is very popular with the over-60 crowd (as restaurants of this type tend to be). I think that explains the lack of seasoning. Many over-60 patrons are on low sodium diets and so restaurants they frequent tend to leave the salt off of everything.
Overall, average food. If I lived or worked in the area this place would probably be in my rotation, but I'm not going to drive across town to eat it.
Service was friendly and attentive. Restaurant is clean and well-maintained.
Gustatory. Been around a long time. One of the few Omaha restaurants to offer chicken pate.
Good simple food. As long as you realize what kind of restaurant this is, you won't be disappointed. The food is somewhat bland but that's because their market is the senior/family crowd. Same reason why they cut the chicken into easier to eat shapes. Coating on the fried chicken is excellent - crispy and not too thick or heavy. All in all, this a nice quiet dining experience with simple American food. Similar to a Lum's.
Great comfort food. For lunch, our party had the Chicken Fried Chicken, Hot Beef Sandwich, and Meatloaf. All with mashed potatoes, gravy, vegetables, and bread. All quite good.
A older clientele but definitely not a turnoff for families or couples wanting a good meat and potatoes lunch or dinner..
I had the most delicious piece of coconut cream pie here!
The salmon dish was cooked near perfect, just a little dry to my liking. Served with teriyaki sauce and two side dishes. Recommendable
Great chicken. Very good but basic menu, focusing on chicken. Last time we ate there the lights were up so high it looked like an operating room, which was a big downer. Not sure if that was because half the customers were over 70 and going blind or not.
Had a delicious dinner here tonight. Lexi S, our server, was friendly and attentive. All restaurant staff were quite polite and helpful. Portions were HUGE and the food is very affordable. I had a large bowl of Homemade Chicken Soup, and it was delicious. I can understand why this restaurant has won so many awards!
A few decades ago this place gave me my first job washing dishes. I haven't eaten here since. Our visit home got extended and we were running out of favorite restaurants so we decided to give it a try. 3 out of 3 meals were good, so no complaints on the food. The wait staff was friendly and prompt, they get two thumbs up there. The only reason I didn't go 5 stars was the seating. Maybe it was just our booth, but I'm pretty sure the spring in the seat got to third base with me before the end of the meal. In my opinion spending a few dollars to freshen up the dining room would be money well spent.
This was my first time ever dining here. My immediate thought is that I cant eat another bite. What a smorgasbord this place gives you. The service was friendly and attentive. The salad bar was clean and stocked. I like how I can go and make my own salad. The meals were overwhelming with large portions. My hamburger steak went great with the brown gravy. My GF barely touched her penne pasta due to being stuffed from the appetizers and salad bar. However her grilled shrimp were amazing! My only real complaint was the onion rings were a disappointment. They felt rubbery and tasted reheated. The waitress even offered to put them in the oven on broil to zap some life back into them for us. I will definitely skip those next time. I would recommend this place for anyone searching for a down home dining experience within the Omaha city limits.
Went for dinner for the first time. Ordered the shrimp alfredo. Very rich, a little too much garlic, however was still very delicious. We also ordered the salad bar and it was well stocked. Our meals came with bread. We had so much food.
OMG best food I've had in a restaurant in a long time. Well worth the hour drive from Lincoln. Here's a picture of a chicken dinner and some chicken and noodles. Would have loved to try their desserts but no room after all this food, maybe next time.
Onion rings and ranch are unbelievable! Im normally not even a fan of ranch. I got the small order, see picture, and it's a huge portion.
This place still holds up. Went last night. Started off with delicious onion rings. Perfectly salted. Two of us got fried chicken. Two were overwhelmed with huge portions of chicken and noodles. My son didn't like his salad because it had homemade vinegrette. He wasn't used to it but I loved it. I ordered the half and half gizzards and livers which resembled a mountain. So good. I would highly recommend dining inn as mom and pop restaurant fried foods don't travel well.
Awesome onion rings and chicken strips with fries. Went there to help my Sis celebrate her Birthday. This was our first time there. I was disappointed they didn't have some small dessert to help her celebrate. The only desserts for sale contained milk products, which my Sis is allergic to.☹️ Also, they were out of lemons for my water. The service was good, but I had to flag downe two different people to get me more coffee ☕. There were very few other sit down customers. The waitress never once asked me if I would like some more coffee. We weren't angry, because good and coffee was very good!
This trip we had onion rings to start. Very good. Crispy & not oily. 3 pice chicken was also very good and not oily. Mashed potatoes with white gravy was good. Was not a fan of the baked beans but not because they were bad, they had a lot of BBQ sauce in them and not what I'm used to. Waitress was awesome.
This restaurant is impeccable and has the FRIENDLIEST STAFF. I can't even find enough words to describe the incredible, delicious and tasty food. Equally their service is focused on the customer and there happiness. Everything is reasonably priced and HOT out of the kitchen. If 11 Stars were available I wouldn't hesitate one moment to give them all 11 STARS !!!!!!!! Sandy, you were a delight, Thank you for your care and service you provided our party.
