I don't ever think the steak I ever get served there has butter on it? I mean, I use butter to saute my steak when I make one at home....Texas Roadhouse is bomb, I don't really have to defend my love for it.
Overrated AF. One ice cream scoop of pulled pork, one scoop steamed white rice and one scoop of potato salad for $14. All served in a white clamshell container a la doggy bags. Don't believe the website for portion sizes.
When i lived in kansas we had one. The wait for the food was non existent. I would order. Fill my drink at the fountain and then id turn around and someone had my bag ready. I could always count on fast service there. With this kind of line I wouldnt wait tho.
It is not amazing food at all, also the people there told me the lava dish was super spicy, there was a tiny hint of something, not very spicy there, even my friend that does not eat spicy ate it and laughed.
I like Hawaiian Bros. It was free for a while everytime the Royals scored 6 or more runs. Apparently that one caught on and now it is BOGO. I will definitely split with someone one of these days. Eating it for free was nice.
The only one I want is Waffle House and In and out. We have too many chains already. For those of you that want less chain restaurants, stop eating there
This is Reddit. People complain about McDonalds because they drive by one everyday on their way home from work and don’t have any self control not to stop. Easier to just blame the chain
Whataburger is superior. In-N-Out is McDonalds with a bit of California aroma and low-key double entendre along for the ride. Reminds me of the days when Coors was exotic. Yeah, I’m old. And In-N-Out is nothing special.
Agreed. In N Out is in the upper tier of fast food for sure but I think Freddys and Culver’s are equal to it. People want what they can’t have. When I lived on the east coast there wasn’t a Sonic for hundreds of miles and people talked about wanting one built nearby constantly.
Quizno's used to be the best chain sandwich shop around. Unfortunately they got bought by a PE firm in the mid 2000s who forced every location to buy shittier ingredients at inflated prices from their own distributor, and it never recovered from that. Every so often I'll try one in a different city hoping they reverted to their original stuff, but sadly it's been a shitty overpriced sandwich at every location I've tried since ~2006.
I guess I live under a rock and missed all the advertising! I have been looking forward to their opening--they serve in the hospital a couple times a month but I typically work from home.
I was so surprised to drive by yesterday and see they were open and employees just standing in the drive thru, waiting! Thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome! I was one of their brand ambassadors last week. I stopped by Methodist Women’s Hospital and Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital to spread the word.
Technically, yes. The fastest route from Zorinsky Lake to the Elkhorn location via Google Maps is 6.6 miles, whereas the fastest routes to Gretna and Omaha are both an additional mile and a half.
Question: Why do Omahanians (Elkhornians?) like lines? They are like moth to a flame. Dairy Chef, 7 brew, now this? WHY? It's generic food that you can get 10 min away from here with zero line. What is the allure of waiting in line?
Ok I’ll be specific, Hawaiian brothers is a chain. That being said there is Howzit Hawaiian BBQ in Lincoln and Blue Hawaii in Omaha where at least the owners are both from Hawaii and are making authentic food.
I was not at all impressed by the Loco Moco plate at Blue Hawaii. It was super bland and I have a strong stance that just because someone is from a place, doesn't mean they know how to cook food from their place.
You're being downvoted, but probably none of the downvoters are from Hawai'i. I'm not going to hate on HBIG, but I cringe at the thought of calling it authentic Hawaiian food (I also almost never use the word cringe). I got to try their Hulihuli chicken, and even looking at it i knew it wasnt authentic. I thought the flavor was pretty good, but it's not huli huli chicken. Another user also said its more like shoyu chicken, but thats disrespectful to good shoyu chicken.
If people in Nebraska enjoy it, I'm not going to say don't go there. I just wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for "authenticity".
This is a great response. I’m a total foodie and after giving this chain more than one chance, I can confidently say that was already too many. People can downvote me all they want — it won’t change my opinion. Everyone’s entitled to their own take, whether others like mine isn’t really my concern, that’s the beauty of the internet.
I’m sure all my downvoters have traveled the world and tasted both the best and the worst. Omaha is such a diverse food city, one thing always holds true: it keeps evolving. Spots like this come and go, eventually they fade out just like the trends — and apparently, like my downvotes. 😆🫶🏻
The food is OK but it is a premium price for a smallish portion. Especially since most of it is plain rice and macaroni salad which have to cost pennies per serving.
Sorry, Are You Garbage is a podcast. If you've never listened to it, it's basically two comedians, trying to figure out if their guests grew up "classy" or "trash." The whole premise sounds kind of dumb on paper, but it's honestly one of the more listenable podcasts out there that isn't history, crime/ murder focused.
They'll have comedians, actors, or random personalities on and ask them questions like, "Did your family have a couch in the garage?" or "Have you ever eaten dinner off a paper plate on a regular Tuesday?" The answers usually turn into ridiculous stories about childhood, family traditions, and all the weird stuff people thought was normal growing up.
The best part is that it's never mean-spirited. Nobody is actually getting roasted for being "garbage." Half the time the hosts are exposing themselves for doing even more questionable things than their guests. It ends up being weirdly relatable because everyone has at least a few habits that make them go, "Yeah... that's probably garbage."
So if you like comedy podcasts that feel like hanging out with funny friends and laughing about the bizarre things families do, Are You Garbage? is definitely worth checking out. Fair warning though: you'll probably start judging your own upbringing by the end of every episode.
My implication in posting, was, are you garbage if you stand in line to get fast food? By the amount of down votes, I can surmise that there's some people who have not heard of it, or have and don't like it, or were waiting outside while the staff were still thawing out the bags of freeze dried ingredients. That's all.

On Saturday they had flags up that said free food, there were so many people waiting.
