Lincoln Restaurants
This website is mainly dedicated to Omaha restaurants. That’s where I live and what I know best. However, I did live in Lincoln for 10 years, and developed a good feel for its cuisine. And I know Omaha diners frequently spend time in Lincoln around Husker games, concerts, or random days trips. So I thought I’d include some of my favorite spots from the capitol city as well.
All items are rated on a scale of 1-10. This is not a complete list—if your favorite restaurant isn’t listed here, I’m working on it. As much as I’ve eaten out in Lincoln, I haven’t been everywhere (yet) and will constantly be updating and adding to these lists. If a restaurant isn’t listed, it’s probably on my seemingly never-ending list of awesome Omaha joints I want to try. I ask for your patience. In the meantime, enjoy one man’s opinion of the best restaurants in Lincoln.
