    We booked Memoir for our engagement dinner with a private room for 14 guests, confirmed in writing over a month in advance. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the room had been given to another group despite our confirmation, which disrupted our planned celebration. We were relocated to their sister restaurant, Plank, which, while accommodating, was not suitable for a guest with autism and offered limited options for my fiancé due to a seafood allergy. Several guests had to leave early, and the overall experience fell short of the expectations we had based on prior visits to Memoir. While we appreciate the effort to provide an alternative, the situation could have been avoided if the confirmed reservation had been properly honored. I hope Memoir management takes this feedback seriously to ensure that confirmed bookings and milestone events are supported with the care and attention they deserve.

    Just wanted to give Damien and our server (I forgot his name I apologize lol) a huge shout out. They really made my early birthday dinner celebration a great experience. The food was amazing. The service was off the charts and lastly the restaurant is so beautiful. Thank you Memior. I will definitely be back for the bacon kale dip and beef fat fried rice. Those are a must try guys.

    Amazing Omaha Gem: Memoir is a Must-Visit! This was my second visit to Memoir, and I'm simply blown away. This spot is a 10/10—glorious, delicious, and an absolute vibe. The food is incredible, the space is stylish, and the service is top-notch. I brought my mother, partner, and our 8-month-old, and we all had the best time. Appetizer Highlights (Run, Don't Walk!): We started with three appetizers, and all were phenomenal: Potato Pouffs: Seriously one of my favorite appetizers ever. They are creamy and potatoey inside, served with an incredible aioli. Whipped Ricotta: Served atop the lightest, most flavorful focaccia I've ever tasted. Brussels Sprouts: They absolutely rule. Entrees & Drinks: I enjoyed the Herbal Tree drink (light, refreshing, and comes with unlimited refills—bonus!). For the main course, I had the Salmon over Sweet Corn Risotto. It tasted exactly like summer, even on a chilly fall day; I’d 100% get this again. My mother, who had never ordered steak and eggs before, took a gamble on their version and was thrilled. It's possibly the most affordable and elevated version I’ve seen, featuring a beautifully cooked steak with chimichurri and a super elevated potato cake (the hashbrown). Verdict: We are so lucky to have Memoir in Omaha. Go make memories ASAP! Pro Tip: Pair your visit with a round of duckpin bowling at Chapman’s Lane next door, and finish the evening with a cocktail at the Ghost Donkey speakeasy!

    The atmosphere here is so much fun! Fancy feeling but also welcoming. I sat at the bar and they have a good wine selection. I had the kale salad to start and the fish for my entree. Both were really good and a healthy portion as well. Def a spot I’ll be back too!

    Really enjoyed the menu here! The service and overall quality were excellent. The manager stopped by to chat with us, and he seemed great. I also loved the open-concept design where you can see into the kitchen. My breakfast burrito with habanero cream was delicious—not too spicy, just perfectly seasoned. My husband had the pasta, which was very tasty but disappointingly small in portion—he actually left still hungry. Unfortunately, my daughter’s $11 chicken nuggets and fries were pretty bad, which was a letdown considering the price. All in all I would go back to eat here and I would recommend it if you’re in the area Get the frosted flakes ice cream with bananas you will love it!
