Steak Town USA
A full year of Omaha steakhouse reviews and the first-ever complete map of Nebraska steakhouses, highlighting iconic eateries across the state.
I’m writing a new, yearlong series for the Flatwater Free Press called Steak Town USA. The series will include a year of reviews of Omaha steakhouses, plus four feature stories about steakhouses around the state of Nebraska. It also includes this map, of every steakhouse in the state of Nebraska.
THE MAP
Nebraska’s steakhouses
Before this project, such a comprehensive list and map of the state’s steakhouses has not existed. We scoured the state’s exhaustive list of registered restaurants and eateries to find everything that fit the bill.
We see this map as a work in progress. Know of a steakhouse that isn’t represented? We’ll add it! Email Sarah with the name of the steakhouse and the Nebraska town where it’s located.
THE MENU
What we’re eating
During each Steak Town USA visit, we will try the same selection of dishes at an Omaha steakhouse
- a ribeye, cooked to medium;
- a filet, cooked to medium rare;
- an order of onion rings;
- shrimp cocktail;
- a loaded baked potato;
- a Manhattan;
- and a Negroni.
- We’ll also try one specialty item per stop, identifying one thing the steakhouse is known for and adding it to the list.
