    I really enjoy my time here. Amazing food, friendly service, well decorated and cozy place. It was worth coming here. They grow their own herbs 🌿 and prepare delicious food. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend this place.

    Fantastic service and the food was amazing! The daily soup which was a creamy tomato and it was by far the best tomato soup we've ever had! Also the small charcuterie board was amazing! Loved how abstract the boars looked. Wife had the truffle pasta and I had the vegan noodles. They were both amazing but for the vegan noodles it seemed like it was drowning in sauce. But had left overs and threw it in the pan reduced the sauce and it was amazing the second day. Highly highly recommend this place and to check out the basement!

    Wonderful food in a large, gorgeous brick space. Don’t forget to check out their indoor greenhouse down in the basement. Got the elk bolognese and the sprouts. Both are large dishes that could easily be shared - should be, even! If you arrive before 6 PM on a Tuesday, it seems easy to get a spot at the bar for one or two, where the full menu is still available. Very friendly servers, and everyone who works here goes out of their way to be extra kind. Extensive drink and food menus, I know you’ll find something to enjoy - definitely more expensive than other restaurants nearby, but they deliver on the quality of the food. And such wonderfully cooked veggies, wow!

    One of the newest businesses in the Old Market. Gather it’s a chic most-try restaurant if you call yourself an adventurer. It’s pretty busy on the weekends, but we lucked out with immediate bar seating that was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and conversational. Drinks were crafted with precision. The food is a little pricier but the portions are big. Be prepared to spend some money when you come here, but do know you’re getting a nice culinary experience. Bonus: Go check out the grow in the basement. Bring your drink.

    Pretty impressed by my Valentine's Day meal. Smoked tomato bisque was incredible, as was the blueberry cheesecake. The pichana on the Valentine's special was great, but the lobster pasta was pretty weird, won't lie about that. Overall I loved it! Will definitely return.

    Our first visit to Gather did not disappoint! The staff, food, drinks, and atmosphere were phenomenal. You must try this place if you're in the Old Market area in downtown Omaha, NE. We had the Pork Buns and Crispy Brussels for appetizers with a Guf Basil Smash with gin (best drink I've had in awhile). I had the Truffle Pasta for dinner with a Watermelon 🍉 Margarita. Then we decided to grab some Jackson Donut Holes In Omaha to go. Lots of leftovers for tomorrow 😋

    The service at Gather was excellent -- very attentive and informative. We were part of a large chatty group, but the servers were very professional about coaxing us along and keeping us on track for the evening. The cocktails were very good and the service was quick and attentive. Everyone was pleased with their meals and it was great to have the entire group served within seconds of one another. The basement grow house was a hit with the out-of-towners too.

    8 of us went here for dinner. BLUF: The place hands down had the best food I've had in Omaha (visiting from Atlanta). Drinks: They have an impressive wine list with a good selection of mixed drinks and whiskey. The do a killer mule and old fashion. Food: the food was the best part of the experience. Elk, bison, and other more exotic meats rule here. The flavor balance in the food is great. Not a single person out of the 8 had any problems ( not to salty, or food over cooked, or any other imperfections). The food was delicious. I recommend the Wagyu, elk bolognese, or the Cobia. Service: Everyone was friendly extremely helpful when it came to ordering and did great with the bill. They were able to split the appetizers among everyone while still charging correctly for the main meal without fuss or hesitation. They make it clear when the tip is added and they bring your bill out in a book. Over all this was a great experience.

    We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Glad we went to Gather. The server was phenomenal. She made outstanding recommendations based on what we liked. We enjoyed the Pork Shank and Bison Steak. We also indulged in their bread pudding dessert. The main dishes were prepared perfectly and flavorful. The sides and sauces enhanced the dishes. The mixed drinks were wonderful too. Highly recommend Gather to everyone. Do expect to spend more than usual but it is worth it. Also take the time to check out their farm in the basement. Very cool to see.

    I really wanted to like this place. I've read so many great reviews from happy customers. We went with high expectations in the hopes of a memorable meal. Instead I spent $200 on a bad dream I wish I could forget. The front hosts were extremely pleasant and made a great representation which led us to believe we were in for an amazing dinner. The waitress was nice but ended up being extremely inattentive. We asked her for a minute to check out the menu and she didn't come back to check on us for about 15 minutes. We ordered a charcuterie board appetizer to start. My daughter ordered the pork buns and a salad, My wife had the Wagyu steak, and I had the fish and pasta. less than 2 minutes after she walked away with our orders, the server came back with the charcuterie board and the pork buns, they must have had them pre-staged because the charcuterie board was stale. It can hardly be described as a charcuterie board, more like a condiment tray. Literally 3 slices of what the server described as "smoked sausage of some sort", a couple pieces of cheese, and I kid you not, mustard, coleslaw, cranberry marmalade, capers, hummus, fig jam, and some slices of almond and a couple slices of burnt ciabatta. so basically $20 dollars for three slices of salami and some condiments... It would have been much better if it tasted like it was fresh, and not like it had been sitting out for hours. At the same time they brought out my daughters pork buns, and an extra order of pork buns that we didn't order but paid for. Luckily they brought out the mistake or I wouldn't have had anything to eat. The pork buns were the only thing decent we were served, the bun was perfect and the pork belly was well cooked. about 15 minutes later we received our entrees, my Truffle Pasta with Grilled white fish, and my wife's wagyu steak. My fish was inedible. The fish itself actually had incredible flavor and would have been amazing if it hadn't been so over cooked as to be dry and tough to eat. The pasta was not good. The sauce itself had incredible truffle/mushroom flavor, however the "hand-made/house-made" pasta was awful. It was far past stale before it was cooked and came out rubbery and inedible. Imagine eating a slimy wet pencil eraser, that's the texture pasta we paid nearly $40 for. My wife's dinner was the most disappointing. The kitchen ruined what should have been a delicious cut of wagyu beef. It came out not as a steak as described, but as playing-card sized slices of over cooked, leathery, dry, bad tasting ... stuff.... One or two of the playing-card slices had some pink in it, but it was a far cry from the medium rare that my wife aske for. The duration of our meal, about an hour and 15 minutes, the waitress didn't visit our table once to check on us. Finally we flagged her down and asked her for the check. She said sure and didn't even ask how any of the food was. She came back with the check and some boxes wondering if we wanted them. We politely told her that we wouldn't need them because the food was not good and not edible. She apologized, dropped off the check and quickly left without saying anything else, no offer to assist, or bring the manager, or anything. It makes me wonder if it's not a common thing for their customers to leave the restaurant with plates full of uneaten food left on the table and complaints to the waitress. At that point we paid cash for the meal, leaving enough to cover and included an undeserved 15% tip in the paperback book that served as the guest check folder. We left in utter shock at how bad this experience was. It was literally the most we've ever spent on a meal, and quite possibly the worst meal we've ever had. Top it all off, we never received the salad my daughter ordered... Unreal...

    Red beet & citrus salad with wagyu strip loin steak. I stumbled into a very new restaurant in the Old Market in Downtown Omaha today. What a pleasant undiscovered surprise. This is my first time trying wagyu beef, and to be honest it's kind of hard to explain it, other than, an explosion of flavor with every bite. The chocolate mousse torte was nothing short of a crescendo. My bartender / server Grace was awesome! Gather in Omaha opened in September 2021 and grows their own greens in the basement. Locally-sourced, with great service, great cocktails, amazing desserts at reasonable prices. Check it out!

    My first time there. I had the Wagu burger. It was good but I couldn't tell the difference from a regular good burger. Those that were with me really enjoyed their food. I'd recommend the place. Nice atmosphere and good service. I'll go back and try something else on the menu.

    Absolutely delicious. We were visiting from out of town and picked this restaurant that seemed to have good reviews and it didn’t disappoint. It has a cozy, romantic atmosphere with great service. It wasn’t at all busy during our visit but given how good the food is I’m surprised. I very much enjoyed the flavors of each of the dishes we had. The truffle pasta noodles were on the al dente side just FYI but I loved it. Would definitely return here.

    The restaurant is a large open space with plenty of seating inside and out. The service was exceptional and comfortable. The food was delicious and the meal timed well. This was our second time at Gather. It is quite a hike from our West Omaha home. I was thinking they may consider adding a couple more items to the dinner menu for diversification.

    An upscale restaurant in Old market. We did the reservation before coming in and when we arrived we got seated immediately. Service was very fast and our server was amazing. We scanned the Qar code for menu and the menu has amazing options to select drinks, appetizers and main course options. We ordered old market fashioned, calinete way, gather mule and lemonade for kids. In appetizers Mediterranean Burrata cheese, mushroom toast with melted brie. For main course pan seared meso salmon is amazing choice. We also ordered truffle pasta and fried chicken. Everything thing turned out amazing and we had an amazing time. I recommend this place, it's a must try if you have not been here before. Little pricey but worth every penny.

    First time going. Had a wonderful date night! I'm glad we were able to sit outside. Only thing would be is a little bit of a wait if you plan to sit outside for service. But it was worth it and staff was amazing to!

    The happy hour from 5-6 Sunday-Thursday is an excellent value (huge bowl of Brussels for $6.50 and $4 wine of the day). The wagyu, salmon, and Brussels sprouts were all outstanding. The bone marrow fried rice was pretty bland. For me, the atmosphere didn't quite match the price - sports playing on the TVs, having to read the menu on your phone via a QR code, and having to box up your own food were a couple things that I didn’t expect at an upscale place like this where you're spending $75+/person.

  • 5/5 Doug L. 8 months ago on Google
    Very flavorful and tasty food. We had dessert first because the bread pudding-of-the-day sounded so good. The food all tasted great and every one of the wait staff I saw was smiling and focused on helping customers. Worthy.

    Great food! Charcuterie plate was awesome!!! I had the Elk Bolognese and it was fantastic! They grow their own greens as well. Return trip is guaranteed!

  • 5/5 Chris G. 8 months ago on Google
    Absolutely wonderful experience. The Brussel sprouts were a great starter. The house salad was creatively put together and the honey balsamic was delicious. The wagyu burger was easily a top -ten-of my-life burger. Great service too.

    We have been dying to try Gather since they opened. I had very high expectations going in. Those expectations were exceeded. Our server tonight was Sam, they were a lovely human who seemed to be doing a great job training a new hire without being obtrusive to our experience. I started with a basil smash (with whiskey), delightful and refreshing. I am hoping they add a berry mod to that later in the summer, blackberry would be divine. We both had the Gather House salad which was perfectly balanced and the greens (grown downstairs in their incredible hydroponics systems) was tender and perfectly sweet. Props to your hydroponics person, because done incorrectly they can become quite bitter. I would love and involved tour someday. I had the truffle pasta, my husband had the Cobia. While I did not taste his, he was blown away. The sear was perfect, the flavors on point. My pasta set a new standard for me in Omaha. That was the best meal I have had yet in the Greater Omaha area. Mushrooms were tender and happily seasoned. Pasta was cooked to perfection. Runny egg balanced everything out perfectly. I am not familiar with how their menu is done, I do hope to see a seasonal menu change, and look forward to trying new things every time. Using old books for check time is a cute and quirky touch. Keep up the great work Gather.

    Great space good food and good service. Nothing that wowed me. We didn't order an entree but a couple of appetizers, salads and soups. The charcuterie was beautiful but nothing on it including the cheese impressed me taste-wise. Tables and chairs felt cheap to me. Maybe a tablecloth would be a good idea.

  • 5/5 Chuck H. 1 year ago on Google
    Well, I’m not sure this gets five stars, I didn’t want to lower their average. This place is really good, a creative menu for both cocktails and food. I had a burger and fries, sound simple, but it was fantastic. Don’t mess with it don’t change it don’t trick it up the way it comes out is just perfect. Draft beer selection is simple but complementary and in fact everything you need. Next time I’m in town. I’ll certainly come here again.

    Gather Omaha was delicious. The service here was really great ! I loved their display of the vertical garden downstairs. I got the truffle pasta which I enjoyed. Their in house grown arugula was a fresh touch added to the dish. I would highly recommend their chocolate mousse torte. This is a great place to meet up with friends over good food! I would recommend making a reservation ahead of time especially on the weekends because it does get busy here.
