THE BEST VEGAN/VEGETARIAN FOOD IN AMERICA. PERIOD. This famed vegan restaurant was started by famed vegan chef (and my good friend!) Isa Chandra Moskowitz. The food is out of this world. You'll need a reservation in advance, because it books up fast. They have a new brunch menu, too.

My favorite place to relax and catch up with friends. You can't beat the authentic French atmosphere of this gem, or the baguette. Rumor has it that the yeast was smuggled back from Paris, and it is definitely the best baguette you'll find in all of Omaha. Small plates and full entrees plus an extensive wine list and great desserts. You can shop for your own bottle from the shelves on the walls, or pick something from the menu. Truly the best!

Drinks & Nightlife

PTL is walking distance from home and a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a drink after a long day. It's got some great Omaha music scene history in its bones, too. It's co-owned by Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes and features live ragtime on their upright piano every Wednesday evening by Omaha staple musician Dan McCarthy, drink specials named after musician friends, and occasional live music shows. You can have a fancy cocktail, or a cheap beer-and-shot special for only $5. A perfect mix of high and low with friendly servers and classic vibes. Open til 2 am every night
