Omaha Forums

Ben Gray later apologized for letting the guy get under his skin.  But I still sympathize with the councilman.  There has been progress made in NE Omaha, but so much more needs to be done.  If it was an easy problem to fix it would have been fixed 50 years ago. Progress has been made in north and e...

I remember that the 76th and the 156th locations used to be Albertsons, they were busy till they sold out then downhill they went. There were a few nice people in the 114th location, I know in the past year the deli manager was persuaded to retire after she fell the new guy that they had in there so...

I have noticed a lot of dirt moving, on the south side of maple @ 150th St, anyone have any idea what's going up there?

These things really bum me out. I help transition businesses for a living (business broker) and I hate seeing when restaurants just close their doors. I have a ton of buyers looking to purchase restaurants. This one and The Smoke Pit would have sold in a second for sure. Maybe so, but some owners d...

A food truck wouldn't be bad at all.

If anyone drinks Bloody Mary's and a fan of bacon try one there, they serve there's with bacon salt on the rim and a thick cut of bacon in the drink! Had one on a Sunday with brunch

Now with the kitchen leaving that area, any idea what restaurant will go in there? It seems like people go to that area to eat.

Someone (who probably doesn't like fireworks) told on him.

Maybe our version of Seattle's Pike Place Market?   First and maybe second floor for produce/perishables, second/third floor for jewelry, candles/incense, restoration bits etc. shops...basement/track level...who knows?  Hope I'm close. That would be nice. This is needed downtown I know I will be do...

Between the Woodhouse auto family or the Baxter/Performance owner they have almost every common line of car out there. I know there are good and bad things about both companies depending on who you talk to, but there a lot better that some of the big out of town companies that take over local car de...

I was just in the Walmart on 72nd and Giles and say the reps from Sams club asking people to sign up so they can go to the new store when its built.



And does anyone know what happened to the plan to have a Sams in NorthWest Omaha?

It looks like a nice addition to downtown(which is needed)

Well turning your Restaurant into what looks like a night club certainly isn't doing it for me haha  :roll: Now if its nightclub by night and Chinese joint during the day it might make some progress for the Gen Xers..  8) They said on their Facebook page that it is under new ownership, so that's pr...

There food is okay not the best well I'll say that from the food I've had at the center street location. Now I will give the new location a try I hope its better than my last time.

It seems like when a Dickey's opens they do the giveaways and the food discounts.

Is everything still the same in there?

Does anyone know about the new place for indoor shooting and gun sales that is supposed to be built in Omaha over by the old chevy dealership?

This is an excellent list.  We can all find fault with one or two (the Drover?  Seriously?), but it is a nice representation of what our city has to offer. Very true, also keep in mind who they asked to help put in votes on this list. Some just wont go anywhere else, and are older so they remember ...

What is going on around here with older restaurants they seem to be closing left and right and these chain places keep popping up. We, the public, need to support the locally-owned independent places. We're the ones who decides who closes and who thrives! Well, I guess they could blame the closure ...

A large grocery store would be nice to see in that location, that bakers on 72nd could be better but it isn't. What ever happened to a chic fil a going in the Sorenson Park Area?

I was looking on FB and came across a post that had a photo of a note on the door saying that Grandmothers have lost there lease and is now closed. Any unused gift cards can be used at any Don and Millie"s  or the Grandmothers in Lincoln What is going on around here with older restaurants they...

Has anyone tried this new BBQ place since Omaha is losing a long time BBQ venue?

Theres a place for the life of me I can not remember the name of it. It is located next door to the former Old Mill Toyota location on 108th and Old mill area. I have seen a lot of old machines go in and out of there. Maybe they can help, When I say next door I mean right next door (older tan buildi...

Isn't that building up for lease, thought there was a sign on the Borders street sign who to contact.

Accoding to Grow Omaha.  The Smoke Pit BBQ will be closing for good on My 25th.  They are open Thursday Through Sunday until then. I can't believe how slim the BBQ Options are in this town. To bad that Smoke Pit is closing, but I went there for one last meal last night around 9pm I park and get out...

Over Easy is a very nice place to go get a good meal. I had a very nice time there

As the Bullet Hole lacks range safety officers, and has at the times I have been there, been a little goofy, I don't want to shoot there.   I was wondering if anyone had been to the range in Bellevue.  Any thoughts? The place in Bellevue is called TakeAim ( look them up on facebook) the place is ve...
