The food was delicious and our server was attentive and very friendly! Great first timers and will be back! The lighting for the outside signage could be better. It was hard to notice when looking for it as walking from parking garage.

Neb was incredibly cozy and great for date night. There were quite a few larger groups and so it was a bit noisy, but it made the ambiance festive and lively. The food was quite good and the staff was incredibly charming.
