    a coffee cup with a quote on it

    There are only 2 Dennys in the Omaha vicinity, and this site is also a major truck stop off the 80 east at Gretna. Unlike the West Omaha location, customers are in transition, while locals tend to patronize the other Denny's. The quality of food is good at both, but the service is better at this location. Parking is easier, and you have an adjoining gas convenience store connected to this Dennys. Coffee is premium here, and the pies are freshly baked. I still prefer a Grand Slam over newer varieties of dishes at any time of the day.

    Sadly, this place is dirty. The staff are loud and chatty with one another. The food is meh. Country fried steak was only so-so. The club sandwich oddly dry with sparse mayo, a thin tomato sliver,and one small leaf of lettuce. The wavy fries are just bad and exceedingly dry. The stainless countertop is dirty. The stainless countertop in the kitchen is dirty, as can be viewed through the pass-through window. Dirty dishes are not removed when refills are brought, and they are allowed to languish for 10 minutes or more as staff convenes at the end of the counter, one of them eating. Please do not use the restaurant dining room as the employee lounge. Please do not let the Hispanic cooks talk and laugh so loudly as to be heard by customers. The sink by the coffee makers drips water loudly and continuously. The salad bar is uncovered. The place is near empty and we know why. Please fix this place. It doesn't properly represent the brand.

    Actually, we didn't eat here because when I looked at the menu, prices were outrageously high. 4.25 for coffee.

    If someone were to tell me we were going to breakfast, this is the kind of spot I'd hope to visit…read more The menu had several different options, enough for everyone in your party to be happy. The food itself was delicious, I ordered biscuits and gravy with a side of hashbrowns. I haven't been able to stop thinking about the salty sausage gravy pairing with the hash browns. The service was also wonderful! We were able to pick our own seating and the food arrived soon after, showing speedy, quality service. I highly recommend this place!

    My husband has fond memories of the Hi-Way Diner, as he went to school at UNL and visited on many a…read moremorning after late nights "studying" in college. We happened to be in the Lincoln area for an event, and he begged to visit the Hi-Way Diner again to relive those memories he cherishes. It was pretty early in the morning, so a breakfast stop did sound pretty appealing to me. We popped in and the interior is pretty cute, with vintage signs and items scattered throughout. The look of the building is a little worse for wear, I will say, with musty carpets, fluorescent lighting, and a faded smell of a building that has been standing a while (which this has) along with the delicious smells of the food cooking. Ignoring the smells and sights, we stood in line to get a table. It was a Sunday when we were there, so very busy obviously. We were seated at a booth, and perused the menu. Let me tell you right now now, you do NOT come here for health food. It's either very heavy meaty options, or sweet pancakes and waffles. Because of the aforementioned heaviness of the fare, my husband and I decided to split two entrees and share the sides. I chose the South Street Meatloaf, and it tasted just like my mom used to make, with a ketchupy brown sugar glaze. My better half chose the Chicken Fried Chicken, and it was ENORMOUS. For our sides, we had mashed potatoes and corn, and those were pretty standard - nothing to write home about. We packed most of our entrees and sides away to take home, because my husband said we had to try the pancakes too! He got the standard pancakes and doused them in butter and blueberry syrup. Can't go wrong there. I got the Magic Toast and chose the French Toast flavor. It was very well battered and came with some delicious syrup to top it with. Highly recommend trying anything from the Magic Toast menu. Hi-Way Diner is definitely a hole in the wall style eatery, but it's worth a stop in Lincoln if you're looking for a tasty breakfast at a pretty affordable price!
