Service lacks. If you’re a vegan, they treat you like $h!t. The waitress had to “take a break” when I asked for something meatless. The only reason I give it a 2 is because my husband liked their burgers. But he wasn’t that impressed either.

I am a fan of smoothies for their taste and Scooters makes some good smoothies. I like their strawberry, strawberry-banana, and triple berry smoothies. They are thick and delicious. I get the large with whip or without whip for $5.00. The drive thru usually moves fairly quickly (smoothies are made fresh) and the service has always been pleasant. They are located all over Omaha. I usually hit the one on 180th and Q.

Quaint downtown setting in Olde Town Bellevue. Don't expect fanciness, it's casual down-home dining ~ Do expect great food, wonderful staff and walking away full & satisfied!!
Each trip I take we hunt out the local BBQ joint. I am fortunate enough to have Swine Dining in my 'back yard". Prices are very reasonable for the feast of food placed in front of you. We've tried each of the meats and all are stellar - plan on some burnt ends and apple cobbler.
If you are visiting, don't skip the opportunity to pick up some of the best & quirkiest BBQ T-shirts around! They truly are award winning, the walls prove it - but the experience and food speak for themselves!

There was a table of 5 of us and we all had special requests for our food. My mom and grandma actually split their chicken fried chicken and they even brought it out on 2 different plates, everything split in half on 2 plates so they didn't have up split it themselves. The waitress, Mary Ellen, was top notch, very attentive without being annoying and she was super busy. I had the Turkey bacon melt with onion rings, the Turkey was juicy and flavorful. The food was amazing and I can't wait to go back to try more items on the menu.

I have lived around the corner from the restaurant almost 20 years and never gone in. I have friends that absolutely Rave about it and I have friends that could take it or leave it. Did not have super high expectations when I went with some friends for a quick dinner.
For one thing when we got there we had to wait for a table. Offutt Air Force Base is right down the way and this restaurant is quite popular with the military crowd. I think part of the reason I hadn't been here is because they close so early. They are only open until 8:30 Tuesday through Saturday and closed on Sunday and Monday.
For the most part, the wait staff was quite attentive, Pleasant and happy to explain the menu. My only question was why is everything covered in sauce of one type or another? I know I could have ordered something without, or had it on the side, but it made me wonder are they hiding something? I opted for a couple tacos, and a side of rice and beans. Pretty basic, but tasty all the same. My friends were very happy with their menu choices, as a matter of fact I think my friend's husband who had the tamales was jumping up and down that they were so good. The margaritas were good though quite pricey and the overall cost of eating here, for what you get, was a little high. There seem to be a cost for just about everything if you wanted extra of something plan on paying at least a couple dollars for it.
The atmosphere was loud and by no means somewhere you would want to go on an intimate level. Well suited for families who don't really care if they hear each other, just kidding.
All in all a restaurant gets about a 3 in my book.

Visited on a Wednesday night for a take away, which was lucky as on that day you get a military discount of 15%. Had the devil burger which was quite tasty and we took a selection of barbecue sauces from the dispensers to spice up the food. A god filling burger meal for just over $10.

Omg I think I'm addicted this hummus! lol I've had it everyday for dinner for the past week! We get a large side of hummus with extra pita bread for $7.95 which includes a few cucumbers and a slice of tomatoes. While the "extra" veggies are not worth considering it a platter, the hummus IS delicious!

Fast service, hot coffee, pleasant staff, great biscuits and gravy. For me it does not get much better than that. The food was delicious and good portions. Might not be the best setting in a strip mall but don't let that fool you, it is worth the trip.

Very open floor plan, the ambience isn't wonderful. The service and food though are excellent. We went on a Sunday with a 20+ person group and there were other large groups at the same time. The servers kept up with the normal things like drink refills, got orders quickly and the food came out in a reasonable time. We'll definitely eat there again.
