What did Bogie say in Casablanca...of all the gin joints in the world, you had to walk into this one, or something along that line?
Well, if you have been in a smokey [the waitress says, it is ALL smoking here, with a smile (as if ALL smoking is a plus)...except and for some bizarre reason, in the room with the pool table...though I assume one is not permitted to drink the table] bar serving cheesey food (not cheese per se but the perjorative is the focus here), you have been here and probably, in better.
Omaha is one of the towns in the Midwest that still believes smoking is ok, and bar owners - despite the evidence - still want it so the ginnies stay at the bar.
Drinks: the usual, no complaints, the beer is cold.
Food: don't bother unless you have had too many drinks, then it doesn't matter. If you want to eat, and are nearby, then go next door (Trovato's, a decent red sauce Italian) or across the street up a block to Marks, a very good bistro and Mirac! smoke free!)
Service: usual chirpy service one encounters anywhere, no complaints
Re the fish and chips: they appear to be fresh, but that said, both fresh fish and good fish and chips are rare in the Midwest. Make your own if you crave it.
