I know it's an ice cream place but don't overlook the burgers and homemade fries. Better than Broncos. Best fries around. read more

Dairy Chef - Burger menu. Don't be scared of the Irish burger. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Elkhorn, Nebraska

Best ice cream in all of Omaha. Ice Cream sandwiches are my fave. Food is also very good.

First time there as we are new to area, what a variety of ice cream desserts, my son loved it. I want to try their food next time.

Not a huge fan needs more flavor just kinda plain I remembered it so fondly from being a kid and eating there

Quaint restaurant with great food! I had a roast beef sandwich with fries today. The beef was tender, juicy, and had great flavor. The Dairy Chef is an excellent nostalgic blast to the ice cream/burger stand you visited as a kid! It's just a blast! If you want a really excellent roast beef sandwich or burger, this is the place. My son really liked the ice cream, and we will be back! read more

Dairy Chef is an awesome place to grab an ice cream cone and they have unbelievable food. They make Dairy Queen look terrible. I went with the Big Mo burger today and it was easily one of the best I've had in Omaha. Their ice cream is incredibly fresh and the atmosphere is great. It's more of your typical small town ice cream hut with great food. You can't go wrong here. Brat approved. read more

Dairy Chef - The Double Mo Burger with nacho cheese. Too good - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Elkhorn, Nebraska

Ice cream is off the hook and burgers are great! Had the Big Mike and garbage burger both were very good. Had the cheese burger it too was very good. I'd put them in the top 10. read more

Places like this are very nostalgic for me, as they remind me of the stands I used to visit as a child growing up in a smaller town. This place has probably lost a little bit of its original charm since 204th Street is now a busy 2 Lane Highway, but that isn't dairy chefs fault. There seems to be an overwhelming desire of people in Omaha to continue moving West West West which is something that I don't understand, but I digress. They have a pretty extensive menu of made to order items from specialty grilled cheeses, burgers, roast beef sandwiches and more. Plus they have a phenomenal selection of soft serve ice cream's and malts. Today I tried the jalapeño Poppin burger and It was great - you can't go wrong with cream cheese and jalapeños on the top of a juicy burger and I found the spice was just the right amount. I also couldn't resist sampling one of their chocolate malts which brought back memories of my childhood all over again. The service definitely left a little bit to be desired, as I had to correct my order with the gal who took it and then still ended up with the wrong thing, but overall it seems to be a pretty well ran shop. They have a bunch of picnic tables to enjoy your meal outside and if you are in the area I definitely recommend stopping by. read more

One of the cutest little ice cream shops and their food is so good! I highly recommend their burgers and ice cream. Get it to go or sit outside on their picnic tables. read more

It was a beautiful evening for ice cream. I had pretty high expectations considering the 20 minute wait in line. Wow, did I come crashing down. The turtle sundae I ordered had a nice presentation built very high covered in pecan pieces. There was very little hot fudge and caramel. What there was combined with the rapidly melting soft serve vanilla. It was probably the worst turtle sundae I've ever had. Maybe the food is good, I don't know. Not going to break the rule buying food at an ice cream place. There are much better options for food. read more

Very old fashioned ice cream but very popular would recommend and very good ice cream I don't think their fries are necessarily the best. 85/100 read more

Small town burger joint with ice cream. Americana at its best. Small town feel just outside Omaha, and love bringing my kids here. Make some memories and have a burger ...they are pretty good. The ice cream is much better than a DQ dessert and why not support the local economy?. read more

I love this place! I always enjoy taking my kids there after their sports events. They have gigantic cones almost a foot tall and have other great deserts. The food is pretty good and is at a pretty good price. They have some outdoor tables and a tent over a few of them. Plus, they have a big field out back that my kids like to play on. Overall excellent! read more

Dairy Chef - Giant cone!!! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Elkhorn, Nebraska

Our ice creams were delicious. We are from out of town and yelped this local joint and it did not disappoint. We did not have regular food just the dessert and it was fabulous! read more

This is a small little red and white topped building very basic but the ice cream is cheap and always busy! The portions are huge the medium cone is 10" if Ice cream and the blizzards are huge also. Everything is very good! read more

Super cute little place and everything I've ordered has been good. I'm always recommending it to people who want a small town dinning experience. read more

This place is awesome !! They have great ice cream and burgers and the roast beef is the real deal !! This place is the gem of Elkhorn and West Omaha. I can't say enough good things about this place. read more

Good food, Really Great Service Food is very good and reasonably priced. Great place for kids...and the staff is always very friendly and kind with our children which goes a long way in our book. We will continue coming to Dairy Chef for our celebratory family events. Fun little old school shop. read more

Dairy chef was in a great place to grab some stuff for the night and then I had a great weekend. I love y'all too much and I just don't wanna see ya close. I'm going on a date with my mom tomorrow night and I will have y'all. read more

Has to be the best ice cream shop in town, even though it takes a while if crowded. Definitely get a freeze if you go

Love the really "small" cones (haha) just wished they were open year round, but summer is good!

Gotta love a little Dairy Chef. Whether you are there for a cheeseburger or sweet treat on a hot summer night, you can't go wrong. I'd describe The Dairy Chef as Elkhorn's classier and better version of a Zesto. Order at the walk up window or inside, grab a cherry coke, a seat outside if it's nice, and enjoy. Chances are you'll see plenty of others doing the same. Brat read more

Chocolate shake. It was deeelish. Great place. Love the old school vibe. Takes me back to when I was a kid. Service was also good. Need to come back for a burger, but worth the trip just for the ice cream. read more

Fantastic local ice cream and fast casual feel joint. Known for their ice cream more than food.

Never had a bad experience. Had a great burger and the fries are hand cut and super. Old school root beer is smooth

Great great ice cream. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE service. High school kids who have no work ethic. I know its a minimum wage job but have at least a little pride and work ethic. Hannah H barely said 5 words. None of which were thank you, how are you or have a nice day. Just a blank stare and a here ya go. read more

Tried a $5 combo. Good value. Took longer to get then expected but was fresh and tasted good.

Haven't had the food here yet but the ice cream was yummy. service was quite fast. beware if u go there during sunset in summertime. Hot as Hades! place could use some more shaded seating. read more

Good food and ice cream. Probably time to upgrade the building though. Place has lines out the door every time I want to go.

The hot dog tastes like rubber (do not recommend) but the cheeseburger is pretty tasty.

Great atmosphere but the ice cream really didn't taste like anything. I think Mc Donald's ice cream is tastier than at this place. I think people love it because the portions are huge for the price. read more

Our family of 4 loved it! The kids loved their food. I'm not much of a burger lover normally but I really liked the cheeseburger. The ice cream was really good too. Lots of different options. We will definitely go back in the future. read more

Nasty and Way too expensive and now unreasonable to go to especially considering how close the new Dairy Queen is to it

Poor service and way overpriced. The wait was long and there were hardly any customers.

This place is awesome- your prototypical small town american dairy bar. Old fashioned cheeseburgers, fries and a shake, a great place to hit before the golf course-- very close to Indian Creek. I also like the patio and the fact you can place your order from the outside window. read more

For a reasonably priced burger that's not paper thin you have to try it. Beats 5 guys and about any other burger joint in Omaha. They get they're meat from the meat market down the street and it is lean and tasty. I love the jalapeño burger, it's a great combination. Staff is friendly and they make the most enormous ice cream cones you'll ever see. Dairy Queen eat your heart out, you can't compare the value and amount served compare to Dairy Chef. A favorite spot after a sporting events makes for busy place after the games! Worth the wait tho and lunch time is not super busy. Try it you'll like it! read more

Like many of the small town ice cream joints, Dairy Chef is modeled after Dairy Queen. The menu has your standard treats including storms (their version of the blizzard), sundaes, banana splits, cones, etc. The also had a variety of sandwiches. I can only speak to the peanut butter cup storm that I had and it was tasty. It didn't have the big chunks of peanut butter cup that you can get at Zesto. Having said that, this is a solid little ice cream joint and the price seemed cheaper. read more

One of our favorites! About three blocks from our house and locally owned and operated. Good food and the renovations turned out beautiful. Plus I love that they hire local high school students. The only downside is they are always busy!!! I guess the secret is out. read more

Absolutely LOVE Dairy Chef!! Staff is amazing and love the hometown atmosphere here! The ice cream is in my opinion way better than DQ down the street. Food is good too, but like I said the ice cream is where it is at!!!!!!! Love that our little city Elkhorn has this wonderful establishment! read more
