    This is the dishwasher.

    The Don and Millie's on 56th Street Lincoln, Nebraska has mold growing all over the walls, dishwasher, freezer floor, and underneath the ice maker. There isn't anything blocking the dish area, where all the mold is growing, from where the food is in the kitchen. Meaning that moldy dish water is getting sprayed in the food. Dustin Williams, a manager at the store, drinks the margarita mix on the clock, and other coworkers steal the margarita mix and also drink it on the clock. He's also taking fire ball shooters in his car on his break. Everyone at the store, including all of the managers are smoking weed on the clock, and actively hitting their weed pens in the kitchen. No body cleans anything but the lobby, and bathroom. I've witnessed multiple employees and mangers get in arguments, and employees get kicked off the clock. All in all it's a terrible work place.

    I love this place, and there customer service is great. I am normally not one to write a bad review but what happened today is unacceptable. I order a chicken taco salad(#10) and as soon as I opened it up I was already disappointed. There was way too much tomato. I figured that was not a big deal and I would let that go. Then I came to realize I literally only got 3 pieces (strips) of chicken, and to top it off the lettuce was gross! Not only was it gross they almost threw the whole lettuce in the plate. I'm not sure if they have a new cook or what was going on, since this had never happened before. I really love this place but not sure if I will be going back.

    Soooo goood!!!! We've only been in Nebraska about 2 months. I decided I wanted a burger, so after driving around w/ no luck, I called a friend and she directed me to Don & Millie's! I was not disappointed! I ordered the Double Don combo. Fries were fresh & hot and the burger was DELICIOUS! I will definitely be bringing my hubby to my favorite new burger place!

    Hubby & I tried Don & Millie's today. I got the #2 which was a cheese burger, fries & med drink. We went at a busy time, 12:30 on a weekday, but the food came out in less than 10 minutes. I have learned to dislike the typical hamburgers that are pressed squares of jerky. Overcooked & tastless. D&M's are not! A hand pressed beef burger, cook to just right with, mustard, ketsup, dill pickles and fresh chopped onion. And cheese, which was melted on the pattie and soft, fresh, bun...yum. The FF were good, but not amazing, but the onion rings looked wonderful. I liked that the burger was just the right size. I would rather have a modest portion with quality taste, than a massive portion that tastes so-so. American's are fat b/c we get too much food!! Soapbox off. Hubby got the chicken fingers, which were not the best choice. He ate them, but this is not what you should go to D&M's for. He also got a side of potato soup, which had cheese, real bacon, and chopped green onion. It was good! The place was busy, but clean, including the restrooms, and they bused the tables quickly so people can sit & eat right away. I had been looking for a local homemade burger place, and we will return to D&M's for more. PS no checks taken here.

    Hamburgers were good and juicy. Not the cleanest place to eat at. Service was fast. You can have a cheap margarita there, too.

The one thing that wasn't great is the men's bathroom doesn't have a changing station (or at least it's not marked) so my husband couldn't change our babies diaper I had to since it was in the women's restroom.

Brought water and menus and a short time later took our order. It was right about here our waitress dwindled. Not sure if to many tables, to far apart or what the issue was but it became obvious. I initially had a diet Pepsi, and then switching to a pomegranate lemonade. It was delicious. At one point everyone was out of drink and had been for awhile and no food had arrived so one of my family went looking for help. We saw other servers often. Just not ours. Drinks and food came. First mine and my wife's. Then later the other 2 in our party. First thing I noticed was my burger looked old. I felt the edge and it was cool. Ripped off the bun and so was the center. Now I hate hate sending food back. But I cut my burger and it was not only cold but rock hard. I had no choice. I couldn't eat that. They remade it and brought me a new burger and fries. It was plane but quite good. Normally piedmont is spot on. Just not today.

    Last minute decision to eat out …read more Hubby picked L's kitchen. We were seated almost immediately. ** reservations required thursdays, fridays and saturdays ** We were lucky today. We managed to walk in and get a table. We love the vibe. It's very cozy reminding me of a small french cottage. Clean and cozy. We don't drink but they do have an excellent selection of wines. And they do offer cocktails, soda and iced tea Hubby and I have gone non alcoholic and we chose ice tea. We had salmon cakes for appetisers, it came out quick Delicious crispy. Hubby's salad came out pretty much the same time. It looked delicious and fresh. Combination of vegetables and tomatoes, croutons and dried cranberries and cheese make the salad look delectable and it didnt disappoint. We both took awhile to decide what we wanted. Every dish looked delicious. We finally decided on steak and meatloaf. My meatloaf is to die for. The meatloaf was juicy and had crispy edges with anice tomato sauce on top on a base of mashed potato. The asparagus was perfectly sauteed. Tender not overly done. We then ordered desserts. Hubby ordered the brownie and I got the strawberry mousse. The brownie was light and delicate yet decadent. Let me explain- the brownie is light like a lava cake its a cross between a brownie and a lava cake. Absolutely delish!! It was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My strawberry mousse was delicious - light and tasted of strawberry fields on a cloud Overall, we will definitely be back. Blown away!!!

We pulled up to this quaint little place in a quiet neighborhood and walked in. We noticed the sign outside that said reservations only, but we noticed a couple of empty tables so we went in and asked for a table for 2. The young made a quick check if the dining room and 1 quick check of the reservation book and looked at us to say sure thing, this way please The whole restaurant is quite small, with a nice bar area, and tables that fill it out. I had the beef filet it was served with butter roasted potatoes and asparagus And we started with the salmon cakes. The salmon was flavorful and tasted wonderfully. The beef was cooked nice and cut like cake. It was wonderful. I finished with the house made brownie that was served with ice cream It was an awesome cross between brownie and lava cake. Incredible I can't say enough about L's kitchen. Perfect timing, our anniversary is tomorrow. Hightly recommend but make a reservation

We made a reservation at 630 for 7 pm and we made it there in time We were seated promptly after glases were placed at the table we were to be seated at. Ambiance was upscale. Dimmed dining room- suitable for a romantic night. But we also noticed a lot of families as well. In the middle of the dining room I noticed a little tree-like ornament. It looked very pretty and added to the ambiance. Hubby ordered a beer whilst I ordered a rainbow sherbet margarita. Drinks came pretty quickly. My drink looked very pretty- Its more tart than expected and im ok with that. There was also a strong raspberry taste though no raspberries in sight. So if you're not comfortable with tart drinks please avoid this drink. I ordered duck on the specials menu that came with green beans and sweet potato mash and my hubby ordered steak with onion strings and mac and cheese. Food took some time to come. Presentation was beautiful for my duck. Flavour was good for the duck. But even the pictures I attached showed that one part of the duck was undercooked. The other side was a tad overcooked but edible. The undercooked part cannot be cut even with a steak knife. The beans and the sweet potato mash was cooked well. Otherwise. It was good. They took it off our overall bill though. That was really nice of them. We then ordered desserts. I got a berry tiramisu, and hubby got the chocolate cherry manhattan. My tiramisu was good. Could be a little less sweet- as mentioned earlier i like tart-ish stuff. But it was still light and fluffy. Hubby's chocolate cherry manhattan was a little strong. But could be improved with a better balanced taste profile. We had a wonderful experience despite the slightly undercooked duck. Appreciate our young server very much. She was an absolute delight. And apologies to her- we forgot her name. She made a potentially bad experience a good one. We will be back.
