Vegan/Vegetarian restaurant. Looks like they opened the end of October 2025. They're where Get Real Sandwiches and DarBar Indian Cuisine used to be.

This is from their website: "Fifth House is Omaha’s next staple. Featuring vegan comfort food classics and an esoteric aesthetic, we see good times ahead"

Looks like they have some affiliation or backing from the owners of the defunct Modern Love.

Fifth house has closed permanently.

This is on their Facebook page.

Fifth House is permanently closed as of today.

It's a long story. In short, from the day we opened we have not had enough sales to be sustainable. Also, recently we have had several HVAC and kitchen equipment failures that forced us to close our doors for a few days. Those repairs cost us thousands of dollars and we lost out on revenue because we had to be closed while they were getting repaired. There have been other factors as well.

We enjoyed the time while it lasted and appreciated all the support from our customers.

Our restaurant and bar space is now available. If any investors are interested in the space or continuing Fifth House please contact [email protected]

Thank you

seems that it's clearly not being identified as a need by the community.

Well the consensus seemed to revolve around poor execution, high prices and bad service.

So regardless of the cuisine, those attributes are never in high demand.

I wonder what changed? wasn't this a concept by the people who originally did Modern Love? Or, am I wrong about that?

It seemed to be a spinoff or at least heavily inspired homage with even some of the same dishes, like the way Ooh de Laly took on some of the Mark's classics. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like it was every run well and the execution was poor and very inconsistent. There's a reddit post where someone order the Seitan Ruben that was dry and didn't taste right, only to discover upon asking the staff that they had run out of thousand island dressing and substituted it with a little ketchup!
