A welcome addition to Wolf Creek Plaza in Bellevue. Sits in a 3 store strip along with the Verizon…read moreStore and Game Stop. Friendly staff. Walk in, scan the menu posted on the wall and order at the counter. Good selection of subs. You pick the size and type of sub. Hot and cold available. I went with the CheeseSteak Sub Meal (Includes fries and a drink). Believe I went with the medium selection. This was an outstanding sub. Good choice. Glad to have this store in the local area. Wasn't getting much traffic when I went in, so be sure and check it out. Go once and you will go again.

I was really craving a classic cold Italian sub. I'm pretty picky, especially about my bread and…read morealthough there are a few places in the area with sandwiches I like, I'm still on the search for "the one". I'm sure there are better choices out West, but I get tired of of having to drive so far for a quick meal, so I was looking for something with a few miles of Papillion. I've been wanting to try Penn Station for a while, but I somehow always forget they exist. Thanks to a Yelp search I was reminded of them. I ordered the large Classic cold Italian on white, my husband ordered the small grilled Italian on multigrain. My sandwich was enough for 3 meals. The meat and cheese were really good, next time I would get extra lettuce and tomato because I like more than came standard. The white bread was just ok, not super crisp and light like I had hoped. My husband said the small size was perfect for him, he enjoyed the multigrain bread and said it was one of his favorite Italian subs. The fries were also terrific and made fresh from real potatoes. The cookies didn't look too appealing, so I'm glad I ordered in person and didn't get one. Overall, a great addition to the area and we will definitely be back often, even if it's not "the one".

It took me way too long to try this place. I took my grandma while she was visiting from Texas on…read moreher last day in town. We went to Dolomiti on her first day and after we ate here she said, next time I come, if you want pizza, WE'RE COMING HERE! So it was definitely a winner. We did the coarser burrata sandwich and the gardella pizza. We ate literally everything but one slice of pizza. The pizza sauce had a spicy kick and the huge cloves of garlic were awesome. Basically everything was delicious and the servers were super friendly. Loved it!

We started going to Grace when they first opened. The food was always delicious, served hot, and…read moreservice was great. Over time service dropped off (the staff is very young) and the food quality deteriorated. Over several visits we were served undercooked pizza, burned pizza, cold wagyu meatballs, and a glass of wine that had been wiped out with the rag they used to clean the counters so it reeked of (and tasted like) ammonia. Tonight we went in to give it another try. We were seated at the bar, one seat away from the manager who was evidently working on schedules or something similar. We browsed the menu, drinks list, chatted among ourselves, watched an employee try to figure out how to pull a draft beer from the tap, watched the couple beside us get their dinner, watched the manager share inside jokes or memes with one of the wait staff, and waited, and waited... over the span of approximately 10 minutes, as wait staff stood in the corner chatting, we were NEVER greeted, offered water, asked if we were ready to order... nothing. The manager who was literally one seat away from us at the bar was oblivious. We finally had enough waiting and decided to go elsewhere. I politely tapped the manager on the shoulder and explained to him that we were leaving, and told him why. He was shocked. Totally clueless.‍

This family restaurant brings something different to the neighborhood. It's worthy of a visit,…read moreclean and quaint inside. Seems comfy with coffee shop/meetups vibe, with a few small tables to enjoy a hand made empanada. It appears to be a family ran business with pleasant service, quiet environment and a DIY water dispenser. The food seemed authentic, flavor profiles I'm not familiar with (green beans on a sandwich)?! I was surprised how well it worked. Although a little juicy, the sandwich hit the spot with homemade bread, a little crispy outside and the perfect crunch of Serrano peppers inside. The shredded beef empanada was jam packed with meat! I didn't see the cheese until the last few bites, but it was enjoyable with the added pico de gallo for flavor. The filling to pastry ratio is nonsensical--how the lightly crisp outer shell holds in that much meat... Perfection. Very worthwhile stop, if you're in the area. You can tell there is love in this place, their food is all the evidence you need. EDITED TO ADD: I brought home two empanadas (chicken/mushroom and shredded beef) for the hubs. 30 seconds in the microwave and these were a hit for him! A very reasonable price for a meal loaded with good meat.

Super cute and relaxing little eatery. From empanadas to dessert and juice to coffee…read more Clean with fast and friendly service and even some specials. We only came here for a snack, but it was delicious.

Maybe I have too high of expectations. I've been to a lot of BBQ joints down in Texas, Florida, the…read moreCarolina's, etc. What can Omaha offer? I'm sure you can find decent BBQ still in Nebraska, but this isn't it. First of all, the price of BBQ is outrageous. I think that's a product of this economy, but we spent over $30 on a 3 meat combo and an extra side. One person could probably have this for their meal, which is a decent amount of food, but this is very pricey for what you get. SMALL sides, and the sample you get 3 spare ribs, 5-6 brisket slices, and maybe 1/2 a link of sausage. Our sides were the Pit chips, Mac n cheese, and a small sliver of corn bread. Nothing else- no drinks, we're just interested in the food. Normally from a "true" Texas BBQ joint, you'll get an entire loaf of bread with your meats - we didn't get any bread at all. If you get a sandwich like their brisket sandwich, you'll get the missing element, but if you have a combo with just the meats, it might go a long way to making the experience better. How was the food? We got our food to go. Give it a little time to rest before opening it up. The smells were decent, so I knew that it was smoked meats (the bare minimum requirement for actual BBQ). Let's start with the sausage. Nothing special - probably bought from the grocery store next door and thrown in the smoker. No cheese in the sausage. It was OK, but wasn't great. It reminded me of an Oscar Meyer kilbasa with a little more kick (spices). Real Texas BBQ like a Rudy's sausage blows this away - not even in the same league. I appreciate the attempt, but if they are serving this stuff, they need to go back to the drawing board. It absolutely does not taste or look like they make their own sausage, but I would love to hear if they do. It would be shocking if they say that they make their own sausage. Brisket was probably the star of the combo. The first few pieces were tender and had a nice arc when you put your finger in the middle. Paired with their BBQ sauce (the sweet is better than their spicy sauce), if it was a one meat combo and they gave me more brisket, then I would have been more satisfied. If you're dragged there, go for the brisket. But I think a good bbq joint needs good ribs. The cooking was pretty spot on - not fall off the bone, but relatively clean bones. The spare ribs might have been a better choice. The bark on the ribs were decent, but just my preference, I like to have saucey ribs. These were maybe sauced and then thrown on the grill, but maybe not. The bark is pretty salty. Maybe good for drunk food, but they could do better on the ribs. Adding their sweet sauce at the end on the grill would make these ribs MUCH better, because all the elements are there, it is just the execution that lacked. My biggest problem was really the portions. The sides were REALLY small. The pit chips were just kettle chips (nice and crispy) with a HEAVY dose of spices. Not bad, but not amazing, and that tells you what you need to know about the sides. Mac and cheese was decent, but can you give me more than 1/2 a spoon full? For $3.00, I would expect about twice or three times the size of the container we got. The small portions sizes make me feel ripped off - when you pull it out of the bag and immediately say "really"? Everyone agrees that it should be like a $1 side if you were to say that you got your money's worth. If you charged $3 for a side, give a decent portion, would ya?!! Finally the corn bread. I love a "famous" corn bread from a competing bbq restaurant, and compared to them, this is rather disappointing. It certainly is sweet, and the taste is ok, but honestly, the way it tasted, it almost exactly tasted like a yellow cake mix from a grocery store. At the "famous" place, you have some grittiness from the corn - this didn't have much of that. It was fluffy and crumbly, so it had potential, but the experience wasn't there. The corn meal grittiness, kicking it up to double the amount, maybe triple, it would have been much better. As it stood, it was a small slice of yellow cake. So overall, you and your drunk buddies going here for drinks and getting some drunk food, I'm sure that's how this place survives. But the food - the reason why we went - it's not something you walk away and say that was an incredible meal! Small portion sizes, expensive food, and just OK flavor, it definitely wasn't worth it. I would say it is most definitely salvageable with some tweaks, but as it stands, I would put this in the mid- to bottom-tier of BBQ I've eaten in Omaha. Probably won't be back unless I hear that things have changed.

Though I didn't get a refill of my water despite being the only person in the restaurant. The flavor on the sandwich was amazing, but the bread overpowered it because the bread:meat ratio was lower than I would have liked. I got the pork rolls and grande pork nachos, both appetizers, and they were phenomenal! The nachos are HUGE! I'd definitely recommend coming here!
