Omaha's Best Hamburgers
Moderators: Coyote, nebugeater, Brad, Omaha Cowboy, BRoss
the1wags and I stopped by Dinker's on Monday. Â Cool Place, Cool Atmosphere.
As far as the burgers. Â Good, Huge, but not quite sure about "best". Â Mine was a bit dry, but I was told that was very unusual. Â I am not saying it was bad, and I will definitely eat there again. Â I had the haystack, 2/3+ lbs meat, Fried Egg, Ham, Cheese! Â I scheduled my angioplasty for Thursday.
Now "best" onion rings in town... that could be! Â Homemade and Delicious!
By the way... I eat a lot and the double burger was too much for me and they have a triple!

The eatery will keep its kitchen open until 10 p.m., an hour later than usual, Monday through Saturday starting on Tuesday. Manager Kerry Mumm said that with bar closing hours pushed to 2 a.m., patrons have been coming in later for food, too. The bar now has free Wi-Fi access and a new website (dinkersbar.com) and is adding a few ongoing nightly specials to go with its new hours: $1.50 tacos and 40-cent wings on Mondays and Wednesdays, $7.95 flatiron steak specials on Tuesdays, $1.75 cheeseburger sliders on Thursdays, and $7 French dips on Fridays.

Smashburger/Fatburger/Five Guys/Local Burgers
So I have now tried smashburger, fat burger and five guys. Â Hold a gun to my head & I'd pick five guys. Â I tried smashburger last week, a burger with pepperjack cheese. Â It had zero taste. Â If I was in Omaha I'd go to Jam's, Louie M's or mu buddy Rick Fox's Julio's well before I'd go to any of the chains. Â I just don't see the attraction and the difference in price. Â Why does a burger & fries at five guys have to cost almost $10? Â Is it the free peanuts?
Give me the above local joints any time. Â I'm already looking forward to the trip to Omaha the first weekend in May. Â Thinking a Julio's Queso Burger. Â Sloppy but tasty!

Burger Star is much better now than when they opened. I have never been impressed with the burgers at Goldbergs, Louie M's or Dinkers to be honest. I still think the best traditional burger in the Metro is Stella's. The best "gourmet" burger is at Spencers - it is awesome and it's only 6 bucks before 6pm (including fries).
And Nebraska's Best Burger is...
The Nebraska Beef Council has unveiled the judge’s selection for this year.
And the winner is...Stella’s Bar & Grill for its cheeseburger
Runner ups:
2. Big Red Restaurant & Sports Bar (Big Red Burger)
3. Tommy Colina’s Kitchen (Tijuana Taxi)
4. Sinful Burger
5. Runza’s legendary hamburger

I've been to both Dinkers and Burger Lust. Â I like them both. Â But I like Stella's better.Brad wrote:I have always heard from EVERYONE that Dinker's has the best burgers. I have never been there but want to! Their sign on the building claims "Omaha's Best Burgers"
Louie M's is good. Not sure about the best.
I had the old stand by today.... The "Double Don" from Don and Millie's
Since I posted that back in 2008, I have been to Dinker's a few times.

That Burger Star has been open for a while now.

Huh? She's owned Stella's for at least 5 years now and I believe she's close to 30. Exactly how OLD are you? ÂCoyote wrote: The owner is now the great grand niece of Stella, who looks like she is 18. All the servers there look like her class mates. I didn't get a glimpse of the cooks but....
Definitely worth a fact-finding a trip though, Linkin5.
