It was comfort food tonight ...We tried their meatloaf topped with a generous amount of brown gravy... accompanied by mashed potatoes, green beens and a dinner roll ..for under $10 ...can't beat that with a stick! Dean had a delicious chicken fried steak that did not disappoint either! Free drinks and great service! read more

This is my first time in, and I came for the weeknight steak deal. It was about what I expected -- Worth the low cost for a budget steak. Nothing fancy, but the sides tasted good too, and it was plenty of food for $11. I don't go into Kino spots, so the atmosphere was a little surprising, but probably nothing out of the ordinary. Much more casual than I expected, not knowing what I was in for. Overall, I would come back again for a deal like this, if it was a very casual meal. My friend got the quesadillas and those were absolutely fantastic! read more

I've been going to ralston keno for years on and off. For the past year going fairly frequently. I have found that cashing in tickets have gone way down! Last eight times we went there and not cash one I repeat ONE ticket is ridiculous. I don't doubt that Ralston keno is controlling the numbers called based on tickets put in. Not fair and so sad. We will not go back. Your welcome for our generous contribution to your establishment. We will miss some of the nice employees who work there. I only hope you are more fair in their salaries. read more

I use to brag about their food. Stopped there today and the burger was so terrible. I don't know where they are buying their meat now but it tasted horrible. Disappointed for sure read more

So my "to go" place for nice hot comforting Chicken fried steak, served with creamy fluffy mashed potatoes and topped with white gravy , and a dinner roll ...WARNING ..they serve large portions ....I did get my wife to go at least once a week as long as I give her $20 bucks to play KENO...well worth it! Self serve drinks for FREE99...staff is always very welcoming and pleasant.They have tables and booths ..the only downside is you must be 18yrs old...My wife has tried many things on the menu and they are all great...but I remain loyal to my favorite..Check it out you will be hooked too! read more

Ralston Keno - Meal-devoured after this pic - Casinos Near Me - Ralston, Nebraska

Slow as a snail. Thats my write-up in a nutshell. It was obvious that they were understaffed all afternoon and all evening. It took so long to get drinks that we ordered the next round when the previous round came and we still waited! It wasn't the bartender or wait staffs fault, it was the business for not having adequate staff. My fries were ice cold. How damn long did they have to be sitting out to be this cold!? A long ass time. Saw several tables just leave because everything was so slow. This may be acceptable to the Boomers in wheelchairs and walkers, but not your average patron. Get it together. read more

My wife and I had dinner here last night. Our waitress was Jade. She was so sweet and personable as she always is. The food was good and we had a great time. read more

My parents and I went here for lunch today. Super busy and wait staff was overwhelmed!!! It took over an hour to receive our food as my sandwich order got "lost", when food finally arrived the waitress practically threw it on the table and ran off. My parents ordered the daily specials which were flavor lacking in all parts and all of the food was refrigerator cold. At one point the waitress grabbed our ketchup and said "I'm going to borrow this" and gave it to the next table who at no point even used it!! I asked for a box and the waitress just huffed at me like I was putting her out. I had to rush out to get to work so as my parents were finishing up some rude person hovered over their table after asking when they were going to be leaving so they could have it, dirty and all. Needless to say we won't be back and be wary to all others who might wanna try this place? read more

Just left.. My sister and I had a wonderful interaction with all the keno writers and a lovely exchange with Heidi the bartender... However, the server who was an older lady with a short haircut, was super rude... She asked me for my ID but I left it in the car... When I returned with it, she was nowhere to be found so I got my drink at the bar, showing my ID... When I returned to the table with it, she demanded my ID with an attitude and said you may have shown that bartender She hadn't seen it... I'll put it on the table so she can look at it... And my sister began to order her drink Now, since my sister have been sitting there, she could've gotten my sister a drink or the menus prior to me returning but she had not when my sister went to place her order the server left before My sister finished her sentence, when I asked her for menus... She had even more of an attitude So finally, I let her know that we would be moving up to the bar and she charged back to the table saying that " You guys need to be patient, I was going to bring you menus, but you guys been rude, the whole time, And you guys should go to the bar but know that the prices are different at the bar" We really didn't care what she was saying she just made us so uncomfortable that we no longer wanted her to be our server... But then we noticed that she went over to several other servers and two of the other bartenders to talk trash about us... We even overheard Her talking trash about us... If I Hadn't already purchased 15 games we would've left right then... And the food is usually good, but it was bland... After the server told the Closing bartender in a white T-shirt, she seemed kind of Icy... My sister and I have just decided we won't be returning... And also it took them forever to call the Keno numbers... I think we'll stick with Big Red ‍ read more

This is first and foremost a Keno place. The food will surprise you in both the variety and quality. They have some pretty good specials and everything is pretty good. Service is a little slow so entertain yourself by playing Keno. Lots of windows and very little waiting. TV's are placed throughout but are high and a little hard to see. read more

Went to meet my family for dinner and Keno just like we do every Thursday and Saturday. there are at least 6 of us and sometimes 8 of us so we need to put 2 four tops together to sit comfortably. Tonight I asked a waitress named Theresa if the 2 tables were in her section and if I could put them together. She at first said yes they were and walked away. I started to put the tables together and she came up and said I'm not doing this you guys take up to much of a block of time. I was shocked and asked "we cannot put these together?" and she said no... And started putting the tables back where they were. I called my family and told them how rude this women was and told them to meet me at Jimbo's. We have been going to Ralston for 6 years, twice a week and have never been treated so poorly. Theresa has a group of people she caters to and apparently she needed the space for them. We've watched her put tables together for them with a reserve sign on the table for an hour before they come in. Keeping other customers from sitting in the space. When we play Keno we usually do spend a couple hours there at least and spend a lot of money between 8 people for dinner and Keno. We aren't loud or annoying, we just spend lots of money and we don't need to be treated like that. This was unacceptable! There are other places to go where the people treat you with respect. So disappointed with this waitress and Ralston Keno! read more

The food is ok, but RK has the nastiest manager under the general manager. Lori has a terrible demeanor, very rude, temperamental and undiplomatic. Plus she threw an F bomb at me. Because I told her to get out of my face, she banned me from coming back. Frankly I wouldn't want to come back anyway. And one of the owners was notified of this but doesn't seem to care. That tells me he is ok with the manager yelling at customers and throwing F bombs. I would not go there. I want to add, Lori dates the general manager and part owner, Keith Lewis. (He is not the owner I am talking about in my review.) That is clearly a serious conflict of interest. Mr. Lewis' decision making and judgment has to be badly compromised concerning Lori's inexcusable behavior. 90 percent of all other restaurants would not tolerate this kind of conduct. The two other owners, including the one that was notified of my bad experience, need to address this. Why would they want to employ a manager who drives customers away? To conclude, I'm sorry to say this person is not fit to be a manager. She just doesn't have the right personality with customers. It's a shame that the owner who is supposed to be a really nice guy feels he can't second guess that manager when she was clearly out of line and threw an F bomb. read more

Always great food and great service. Clean place to eat. I love the onion rings. I play a few games while I eat. Keep up the good work!

This is a pretty good place to go if Keno is your thing and if you are a smoker, you will be double happy, because they have a smokers room that is not outside and it's heated. The food is actually pretty decent and the woman that waited on us, was on top of it and super nice. My BF ordered the NY Strip steak, came with a decent sized side salad and a another side for $8.99 and for $2 more bucks he got 4 big shrimp. I ordered onion rings which were huge and crunchy and the horseradish dipping sauce was excellent. The drinks in the other hand left a lot to be desired. My BF ordered a margarita and it was totally clear, there was no seed and sour I think it was just triple sec, tequila and soda water, it was ok, but it was not a margarita. I ordered a Long Island ice tea and I could taste nothing but tequila, what little of it there was and cola. My final assessment is if you love keno and decent reasonably price food and prefer beer over mixed drinks, this is your place and if you smoke, it's a no brainer. For what it is, a Keno Sports bar, it one of the best ones I've been to so far, which really hasn't been many. Oh, and don't let the parking lot full of cars scare you away, the place is ginormous inside. read more

Came in to grab lunch. Sat down at the bar. The lady walked around and did everything but come over to help me. I waved, I said excuse me, and nothing.. I then whistled and she responded dont whistle at me cause I'll never come over. I said sorry but I tried to get your attention ask the 4 guys next to me. She looks at them and they dont say nothing.. then one of them says ohh it wasn't that long. . Dam shame people are still like this in 2019.. will it ever change.. read more

Ralston Keno - Casinos Near Me - Ralston, Nebraska

They have great specials every day. Their 99,cent tacos are great! Their cheddar cheese soup is the bomb. I love theri Roast Beef Mashed potatoes gravy entree. It's a little crowded some days due to their specials being cheap and delicious! Staff seems friendly enough. I would recommend. read more

we came in to eat which was okay they went to play darts and listen to music and i lost 4 bucks in a slot machine and had to call number then played music that never played when i compline the manager played the last song played which was mine. the waitress was awesome the management was terrible they offered noting for our issues even though we were here for hours and ate drank and played keno. they try and blame it in outside facts which they should take accountability for read more

This place is awful. I ordered an appetizer that came out with our meal. I ordered a chicken club sandwich which was supposed to have chicken, bacon, cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato and onion. When it came out it was literally a piece of chicken on a bun. I told the waitress and she brought me a plate with a piece of lettuce and onions. Seriously? She did nothing to attempt to make the mistake right, including asking if I wanted it remade. I sent the whole thing back and didn't eat. She also got my drink wrong but I chose not to say anything. Will not be returning that's for sure. read more

Keno writers are very friendly but the waitress was another thing all together. We had only been here twice and when I asked the staff person how to order some food here, he kindly said he would send a waitress over to us so we could place an order for some food. The waitress came over to our table pissed off at the world and told us she couldn't see us where we were sitting and thats why she didn't come take our order... Geez woman slow your roll! UPDATE: 40 minutes later and miss waitress w/ an attitude still has not come back to take our order. Some people just DO NOT belong in a job dealing with customers! I ended up grabbing a different waitress and she was actually very nice and gave us great service. Other than the older and seriously crusty waitress who treated us bad, everyone has been kind, and friendly. I ordered a Patty Melt and Nicole ordered the Chicken Strips and both were very good and were brought out quickly. I would have rated this place 4 - if the waitress hadn't been so nasty but that brought it down to 3 . read more

Ralston Keno - Casinos Near Me - Ralston, Nebraska

This is a small keno parlor just south of Omaha. It is made up of three main rooms. When you first enter, you are in the main keno room. To the left is an enclosed smoking room and to the right is a dining room. You can play Keno in any room. They also have pickle cards for $0.25 to $2.00 each. I never win at pickles. This was my second visit to the Ralston Keno Parlor, both times with family and friends for breakfast. Their menu is not large, but the portions are enormous and the prices low. The first time I was there I had 2 eggs with hash browns, bacon and toast. Honestly, this was probably enough for the hole table of us (and there were six of us). This time, I opted for the single egg breakfast, also with hash browns, patty sausage and toast. I still could not finish it. The quality seems good - an egg is an egg. The hash browns were buttery and crisp. The sausage was well cooked and moist, but a little flavorless. I had wheat toast, but didn't have any of it before they had to roll me out. The food is remarkably good. To give you an idea of cost, I think my breakfast was about $5.00. All drinks are free - they serve Pepsi products, coffee, etc. Also on the menu aside from eggs are traditional items like french toast, biscuits and gravy. They also offer steak and eggs and chicken fried steak and eggs. All in all, not a fancy place, but fun all the same. Not really a place to bring your kids, though. read more

Love walking into a business that has a note to be patient. Our restaurant has no servers but our KENO has a lot of workers. Shitty food and shitty service. ONE AND DONE read more

This place needs to reconsider Lori the bartender. She is the most rudest person I have ever seen working in a position that deals with the public. If you are that insecure because you are called out and feel the need to take it out on your customers, you should look for a different line of work. This is not out first run in with this bartender and will not return on a day/night she is working. I know she is the girlfriend of one of the owners, but they need to wake up and stop letting her run off business. read more

I came here recently after a beerfest and spent over 100$ with our group eating and drinking. This was the night that a large blizzard rolled through Omaha. My group and I left to go karaoke at a nearby bar, but it was closed. On the way back, we grabbed some tallcans from a gas station. We took them into the Keno place and sat patiently while we waited for our Lyft to arrive. We weren't being loud or obnoxious in any way. About ten minutes after we came back ( this was 10 pm, place states hours until 2 am), the lady manager came back and took out beers and tossed them in a nasty manner. I understand that we had outside drinks but she was super aggressive about it. I guess it was nice of her to then toss us into the "smoking room". The temperature was about 30 degrees cooler than the main restaurant. While there, we saw several other patrons literally getting shoved into the smoking area. One guy asked why this was happening, could he use a bathroom, and this same managerial woman actually put hands on him, shoving him into the smoking area saying, " wait in here, or outside". I get that the weather was bad but this was ridiculous. These were paying customers being shoved like cattle into a holding area, and being told good luck while you wait for your ride. I will not go back there, the food was mediocre, drinks were okay prices, the service was slow for us as paying customers, but it's clear they don't give a shit about the human experience. No stars! read more

4 stars for service 1 star for food 0 stars for the smell :( Unfortunately, Ralston Keno is a favorite amongst my coworkers, so we come here fairly frequently. The servers are all pretty nice, but the food is very lack-luster. What the food lacks in quality, they make up for in quantity. Ex: salads are obscenely huge, but made with watery, flavorless iceberg lettuce. Even simple things like burgers aren't worth while. The burgers are the frozen, out of the box kind and desperately need seasoning. Even though there is a room for smoking, the dining area reeks of stale cigarette smoke. RK might be okay just for drinks, but I can't get over the stale cigarette smoke smell. It just hangs in the air and seeps into your soul, as well as your clothes. read more

Got here and seated at 1030 so we could have breakfast, our waitress didn't bring menus until 1045 asked if we were ordering breakfast then walked away. Walked past our table 4 times dropped lunch menus off and proceeded to walk away. She came back at 1110 then proceeded to tell us unfortunately breakfast ended at 11. It's ridiculous as we were seated by 1030. Horrible service with even worse attitudes. read more

I've been here several times since I started going about a month ago. Yes, the service in the dining area is kind of slow, but they only have one or two servers working. In spite of this, the food has always come out fairly quickly and hot, so I guess I'm not understanding where people had to wait 45 minutes for food, unless there's been a personnel change over since the negative reviews were posted. You can't find a better new york strip or prime rib for the price they charge. With the pandemic being used as an excuse to hike the price of beef up, this place is still keeping their prices low for burgers, steak, prime rib and other meals they provide. They also give you an insane amount of food to eat and I've never eaten a bad meal here. Its even alot of fun to toss in a few games of keno along with the dining experience. My encounters with the staff have all been positive, however, I've never sat in the bar area to experience the "rude bartender" people talk about. I will keep going here until they give me an excuse not to, but so far, they haven't. read more

Average bar food. Chicken fried chicken was two sandwich patties covered with gravy, tasteless. Waitress was pleasant and service was prompt. Probably won't return read more

Ralston Keno is kind of a bizarre place, but totally fun if you know what to expect. I came here with a group of guys for some beers and margaritas after a round of golf. At about 3 p.m., the place was full of old time Ralston locals who were really, really into playing keno. Luckily, the space is huge, so we found a spot in the back near the smoking room to skip out on the gambling gang only to find some dude with huge muscles counting out large amounts of cash on the pool table. It was like a scene out of Miami Vice (the dude worked there, so it's cool). Pitchers of PBR were $7.25, so under $2 a beer. Not bad. Margaritas were $2 each. Also, not bad. Typical keno bar food menu with fried stuffs, gringo tacos and gravy up to your eyeballs. There's something about Ralston that I just love. It's like a small town tucked right between the city and suburbia. If I ever ended up living there, I wouldn't complain. Heck I might even take up keno. read more

I am a regular here. I go every Tuesday for the prime rib specal. which is absolutely delicious and for a price of 8.99 you can't beat it. you get a prime rib and two sides your choice of potato and corn or green beans. I have had prime rib at expensive steak houses that isn't as good has the prime rib at Ralston keno. Has a great atmosphere friendly staff and food and drink specials throughout the week. They have live keno, pool tables, and dart boards.it's a great place to meet up with friends and enjoy good food with good drinks. read more

Update. I still have friends that frequent this place so I decided mid last year to join them, for drinks and Keno only. They now sit in the bar side where I've had better luck so I began trying the food with much luck. I return to socialize with my friends and enjoy some of the food. The bright spot here is a friendly, energetic young lady who waits our table on Sunday mornings, only a few issues with the food but she gets it fixed cheerfully and fast, she is a favorite of my friends. Important to note that she serves our large table, or 2 very well. I not only eat here again but feel earns a good tip. There is one snarly bartender who should be avoided, she works at nights and I see her occasionally on Sunday mornings too. read more

Cheap beer? Check. Bar food? Check. This place is always chock full of older folks woiting to see if their numbers come in. There is a smoking room for those who must have the stix. I didn't get called out for vaping indoors here. the bathrooms are clean. I like to come here before a hockey game at Ralston Arena. Sometimes I like to stop here during the week, too read more

Had a great night out with a friend. We weren't looking for anything fancy or extravagant. We have come here a few other times. It is fairly quiet and you can just pick a seat and relax. You have the option of a bar/restaurant side or a regular keno side. However, keno can be played on either side. They have daily specials on food, drinks and keno. Great place to just unwind. read more

I frequently go to Ralston Keno to play darts and have a few drinks with friends. It is definitely more of a hole in the wall than anything else. I have never tried their food, but I wish the kitchen stayed open longer so I could get my drunk munchies on. The drinks are always over poured, which I don't mind because I can walk home. (And let's be honest, if you're drinking liquor the goal is usually to be drunk) Bartenders are super friendly and always recognize me when I go here. read more

Awful Staff seems to only people they want to wait on. Most of them getting wasted outside. It was unprofessional. They do not care about newbies walking in. Nor to they care about the safety of others. No masks. read more

I enjoy coming to Ralston to play keno and I spent a lot of money but the only downfall is just because you're dating one of the managers are owners whichever it is in the bar doesn't mean you treat customers differently we sat there for over an hour not getting asked if we wanted breakfast we had to go up and ask for a drink we had to go up and ask if we could please order something for breakfast because they wouldn't come and wait on us and I'm sure you know who that is but overall everybody's Pleasant friendly it's clean and it's a relaxing place to go read more

2 stars they paid better before they supported the arena I like the old Ralston and the old employees for my buck this is a 1 a month place to go thank you . We use to go 4 nights a week good honestly priced food with nice people employees and players nice place glad i go 1 a month. read more

I only gave one star because I did not see an option for half a star. I guess the folks that open and close the doors daily should get at least that. Although that is about all that they do in a day's work. Customer service is non existent. And I was told not to expect anyone to walk all the way over to the cash register to cash in my winning pickles because they are about "keno first and pickles whenever" I spent over $100 in pickles -- still same answer -- waited almost ten full minutes to get paid. My advice -- if you don't want people to play pickles then don't sell pickles -- fairly simple solution. I will never go back. read more

The service is not great here, but the prices are extremely reasonable. The first time I ate here, my friend and I ordered the corn nuggets for around five or six dollars and they were very, very good. I'm not generally a fan of fried food, but these did not taste overly heavy or greasy. They came with honey and we also got a side of ranch. The portion was more than plenty for two to share. Last night, I had the nachos, which were pretty good. You can get them with flour chips instead of corn, which we did and they're very good about putting things on the side for you (like the meat). And most importantly, happy hour lasts til 7 :) But even outside of happy hour, the drinks are cheaper than most bars. I sit on the bar side when I go, and it's hit or miss as far as crowded or dead. read more
