I came here with team mates after a three-day meeting. We ended the day early, as we were exhausted and wanting to share some drinks together. It was too cold to walk far (18 degrees) and Uber was backed up (a 20+ minute wait). So we headed to a bar we found on Yelp that was within easy walking distance. We never found that bar, lol. But we found Let It Fly, and one of my team mates said, "Oh! I've always wanted to try this!" So we headed in. We were so tired when we arrived. We were pretty much brain dead. We couldn't decide if we wanted to sit at the bar or at a booth or a table. It could have been really awkward. But our host (who was brilliant), said, "Let me take you to our favorite booth." That was a classy move. Of course, this meant that we, who had no interest in ordering dinner, were seated in a waitresses section. She was visibly irritated with us at first. But we eventually won her over and she took good care of us. We ordered a variety of drinks and appetizers and hung out for two hours. But they were having a slow night (they weren't needing to turn tables), and we constantly added to our order. So it all worked out for everyone. I'm from Texas and I married a hot Latina, and honestly, I did not expect to like anything "Mexican" in Omaha... much less anything labeled "tin can nachos." (Are you serious right now?) But... wow! They were really good. I was really surprised. They brought it out in a 5-lb-sized tin can with the bottom removed. They lift up the can and the content drops down onto the plate. And boy was it yummy - and appropriately spicy. I loved it! We also had mozzarella cheese sticks. I'm not into deep fried mozzerella, actually. But I thought this was pretty good, and one of my coworkers said it was the best cheese stick dish she's ever had. The bar is midway between the Downtown Marriott Capital and the Marriott Courtyard - an easy walk from both. And it's also next to J Gilbert's and a number of other great establishments. Plenty to do here, and this place is certainly worth a visit. And I bet they pack the place when there's a good game on. Oh... and the table next to us was ordering three foot high drinks (some kind of vodka-fruit punch drink that is like a modernized version of a pitcher that looked really cool). Fun place!
Our group stopped by here before a concert to grab drinks and food. We were seated immediately, and our server was super friendly. I went with the margarita, and my husband went with a beer. We started with chips and salsa that tasted great. My friend and I split the veggie pizza, and the thin crust was crisp and delicious. My husband went with the Cobb salad and enjoyed it as well. There were a few other food options I want to try, but it's gonna be hard to not order the pizza next time honestly.
Was visiting a friend in Omaha, NE and we stopped by this place to watch a college football game. Had the pretzel to start. Huge, and you get two! I had the smash burger which was great (and messy) and they had beer specials during the game as well HUGE big screen TVs over the bar. The vibe and atmosphere was industrial meets sports bar meets man cave. Two floors with tvs all over the place. Bar on second floor as well. Full food menu and brunch! Great for groups too
Went here with a group of 4 before a concert and I was impressed! The place was crowded and the atmosphere was just lively to be in. Everything we got tasted amazing, but my favorite would probably be the pizza. They burnt our pizza & kindly made us a new one AND they took it off our tab! I would also recommend the garlic teriyaki for the wings over the chipotle honey. Our food came out in a decent manner, however our waitress would forget about our drinks/condiments when asked, but it was probably because of how busy the place was. The crispy mozzarella had a nice cheese pull after taking the first bite and the onion rings came out crispy too. My least favorite was the onion rings, but it was still good!!
We made reservations for a Friday night, but there must not have been any big events going on because it was pretty slow. The space was nice, plenty of TVs and tables for large groups. The drink menu looked promising,but friends that tried their cocktails said they were just okay. I settled on a beer. Lots of domestics, which is to be expected, would have liked to see some more local options available. We ordered mozzarella sticks for an appetizers they were fantastic! I could probably eat a whole order to myself. Will definitely get these again. For dinner, I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with fries. The pork was tasty and I liked the addition of a slightly sweet coleslaw on top. The fries were fantastic! Perfectly cooked and not too salty. Overall, our service was mediocre. Our server was not overly friendly, stopped by a lot as we were reviewing the menu options, then kind of disappeared after our food came. It was a slow night, so I can't imagine it would be any better on a busy event night! Might give it another go if I'm in the area for an event, but wouldn't be a destination dinner spot for me. Paid street parking available all around the Capitol District, or park in the garage attached to the Marriott.
Tried out the Let It Fly downtown location after the UNL baseball game. Had a pretty minimal wait for how busy it was. We ordered the Go Big Red tower. This really only one glass for three people. Definitely had a big fruit punch flavor with minimal alcohol. I also tried the canned nachos. I remember hearing about these when they first opened. This was a fun presentation, lots of gooey cheese, and a large portion. Overall, this was a good experience, nice to see elevated sports bar options, however, was slightly overpriced.
Really cool place to watch sports, get drinks and food. The service was alright l, we waited for a while before the waitress took our order after initially greeting us. Food did come out quickly after ordering. Pizza was a huge surprise because I was not expecting to be as good as it is here but it is really good.
