Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Council Bluffs

My wife and I wanted to find a good steakhouse walking distance from the concert we attended at the orpheum theater,. We found this restaurant truly amazing! This is the first time my food turned out better than the photos pictured in the menu. My steak was perfectly grilled, the baked potato was moist and perfectly seasoned. The salad was fresh and delightfully tangy. The fresh bread was an incredible cornbread surprise. The coffee and cake at the end topped off a perfect evening to celebrate with my wife our Christmas season in Omaha! Our waiter, Ezekiel was truly attentive to our needs the entire time. We were visited by the head chef to check on our food as well as the restaurant manager. Never have I ever been so completely satisfied with an experience at a restaurant. I would highly recommend to everyone this beautifully designed wood-fired grilled restaurant tucked quietly inside the Farnam Hotel. 10 out of 10 stars easy.

Always consistent with amazing food always amazing service and always amazing cocktail and wine selection. This is by far a stand out restaurant in Omaha and one of my faves.

When we first came in we were greeted and invited to wait and look at the in restaurant garden, the staff was friendly, the food was delicious, and the ambiance was wonderful. Will be telling friends about this place and dreaming of the elk bolognese!!

First time we visited J Gilbert’s. Food was so good. We ordered off the PreFix menu. The amount of food was great for the value. The ambience was warm and comfortable. Our server was very sweet and attentive. We will be back!!

We really enjoyed it! It was my first time there. Their kids meals were better than most! They each came with a general side (fries, veggie options) but then they both came with Yogurt, cutie orange and fruit snacks. The kids loved it! We go to so many places that just do generic tenders and fries so anything beyond that is always great. We both loved the house margs and our meals were delish. My husband’s only complaint was the Shrimp pasta only had 6 shrimp but they were fairly good size. We will be back!
