Omaha does have some good steak places especially out in the boonies but yea I agree overall that place kinda sucks.

Best thing about Omaha is the zoo

I can't speak to the steak places there. I'm sure they're great, but college kids weren't spending our money at high end steak joints. Now when I go, it's to bring my kid to the zoo, so fine dining isn't on the agenda.

That and the CWS. They used to basically be in the same parking lot, but it seems like I heard they were moving it away from Rosenblatt, so I don't know if it's still the case.

I hear ya. We ate at King Kong their gyros were pretty good.

That is about the only place I can remember.

We did watch an Omaha Royals game which was pretty good.

Gates...if I want to get yelled at black people...

A couple of the local chain Mexican places in the KC area are bloody awful: El Maguey and the Salty Iguana. Perfect examples of Mexican food made terribly bland for the tasteless suburban gringos.

On the good side...801 Chophouse in the P&L was awesome when my wife and I went there. Steak was very good and the salad, appetizers and dessert were top notch. Service was also excellent.

Wife and I kinda decided that it was better to spend $150 for a nice dinner there once every few months....instead of frequently dropping $30-$40 at the local Applebee's, Olive Garden or whatever.

If you're going to spend $30-$40 for dinner in KC, you can do a lot better than Applebee's or Olive Garden. You really don't have to spend $150 to have a nice meal.

Well, you're friends are slightly ****ing reeruned. There are a ton of good mexican joints here if you know where to look. Next time you're here, let me know and I will direct you.
As far as the CWS, (not a fan) they moved to a brand new field, (where Creighton plays) downtown. Rosenblatt was closed down. That's a sore subject for me, I loved that place. It was a great venue to watch the O-Royals.
The royals now play in Papillion-LaVista, outside of Omaha at a pretty nice joint.

All the good steakhouses have been closed down except for two, Anthony's and the Venice Inn. We used to have a pretty good sized organized crime population so in turn, we had a lot of great restaurants. Unfortunately, since the Italians have moved out, so have the good steak houses. All replaced by Applebee's and Chili's.
At least we still have the Spaghetti Works. Their menu has been the same for 30 years and its still decent.

What about Piccolo Pete's and Caniglia's?

Piccolo's is still there, (I think) but Caniglia's, club 89 and Mr. C's are gone.
Anthony's is still around but it's gone from dinner and a show to a steak house/night club type of place.

How many people that think Applebee's, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc. like the McRib?

Their frog legs are :thumb:

You ever go to a place in Waterloo, NE called Farmer Brown's? It's been a long time ago, but I seem to remember it being pretty good.

Yeah but that was back when I was 12-13. I remember a chunk of primerib the sizeof my head.
