- HHeatherLas Vegas •4 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoReservation via open table for 7:00 for our group of 3. Arrived at 7:00 and were told it would be 20-30 min wait. So we went to the bar downstairs, ordered a bottle of wine, he gives us our empty glasses and then disappeared for 30 minutes. I asked a girl where he went and she gave a snooty response “well he probably has to open 6 other bottles for the other tables”. Hmm ok. 30 min later at 8:00 we were finally sat at our table upstairs. “Anyone can take a reservation but it’s the holding of the reservation that’s important”. Lol…. Besides all of that bs, the food was very good. Spinach naan, soup and lamb vindaloo. Our waitress was great, but you could tell she was overwhelmed. Just be prepared to wait on weekends even while having a reservation…More infoThe Oven - DowntownPrice: Moderate• Indian• Lincoln•4.8

- RRosanneNebraska •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoThis is a restaurant that knows how to cook salmon! I usually never order that in restaurants because they overcook it. It was served with seasonal veggies and a beet risotto that blew me away! I hate beets normally, but this was excellent. My boyfriend got the seafood risotto which was also excellent (I stole a taste). We were sad that they were all out of bread pudding for dessert, but it must be excellent if it was sold out by 7pm! Can't wait to try it next time. Got a blackened crab on cucumber planks as an appetizer and it was just meh. This is my third time at this restaurant and I haven't gotten a bad meal yet.More infoTalus Spirits & SustenancePrice: Moderate• American• Papillion•4.8
