Brandeis Restaurant Tenants
Today I heard that Brandeis has letters of understanding for a restaurant and a sports bar for the area right along 16th St. I didn't get a whole lot of other details but I think the sports bar would go on the corner of 16th & Douglas with the restaurant along 16th St., south of the entrance to the food court.

I am confused? Â I thought there was a Paddy O'Quigley's here in Omaha, but when you look at that twitter page there is a link to their website http://oquigleys.com/ which does not show an Omaha location, but it also shows that Paddy O'Quigley's is a Kansas chain?

Their odds will not be any worse downtown, I believe Josh said it best...

It was where the current Oscar's is located. First they try 168th and Center and now the Brandeis building? Evidently, they like taking serious risks.

There is a White Castle down the street from where I live...there is nothing quite so disgusting at that place.

They say that White Castle is an acquired taste -- one I never acquired. Too onion-y for me.guitarguy wrote:White Castle although very tasty was the worst I have ever felt sick after eating at a fast food place. So needless to say I'm glad we don't have them around here. Â :yes:
A blog poster a while ago claimed that Omaha used to have a White Castle. Obviously long before my time.
Coyote wrote:Wasn't there a White Castle on Center and about 35th? I think it is a movie theater or something now.
Here's the blog comment which referred to it, posted by "Nicolas" some time ago, no e-mail or other obvious means of contact:
Thanks for the memories. Sometimes when your mind forgets, your tongue remembers.
The one's I miss are the three Greek-American places used to be downtown. Ambassador, Olympic, and Virginia. Ambassador was at 25 and Farnam and was oonce the only full service 24 hour restaurant in Omaha. Olympic was at 15 and Farnam and was late night but I don't think 24. Virginia was owned by the family of movie director Alexander Payne.
Also Harry's steak house in the Conant Hotel. Sing along in the piano bar, songbooks on the tables.
Omaha used to have a White Castle, 25 and Harney, but the big one downtown was a dozen or so Harkerts Holsum Hamburgers for lunch. Also for lunch you had Bishop's Cafeteria and Northrup Jones. Northrup's had a sister restaurant, the Olde English Inn in Dundee, then moved to Countryside Village. Also the Hilltop House in Dundee. Sorry to ramble on but I did enjoy this and it brought back all kinds of memories.
My extended family in town used to have a Christmas season dinner at the Hilltop House every year... was sorry to see it go.Also the Hilltop House in Dundee.
And my Dad always talked fondly of Tiner's drive-in on Dodge (now where King Kong is)... the 50's street rod crowd used to hang out there... my Dad had a '49 Merc (before they started chopping them).
Sorry, back to regular programming.
Shoot for the Moon... if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
OOOOOh Danny BOOOOOY !!
I hope this is named after someone (I'm Irish) because it sounds like the name was chosen by a really cheesy focus group headed by my grandparents. I winced and did a major eye-roll when I saw the name.

Re: OOOOOh Danny BOOOOOY !!
Most grandparents have better taste. More likely the culprit was driving by a Carlos O'Kellys while talking on the cell phone and suffered a brain fart.ricko wrote:I hope this is named after someone (I'm Irish) because it sounds like the name was chosen by a really cheesy focus group headed by my grandparents.

our management staff here at the brandeis has been told mid june. the framing is almost complete, and ventilation will be done by the beginning of next week. they are planning to bring in additional workers to ensure it will be done by july for sure. they are just trying to be as cost efficient as possible, seeing as they are already close to their anticipated budget for construction. should be awesome once its complete!!

If I just heard someone say the name, I might think it was a place called "Patio Quigley's".

LOL. Are you serious? Of course I saw that, and I know what Paddy O'Quigley's is. That's how I knew to do the play on words of "Patio Quigley's". Give me some credit, Brad. Â :;):Brad wrote:Close....
