I came across this pop-up gem a couple years ago when I saw a line of people standing in the middle…read moreof a parking lot in 100+ degree weather. I just had to ask, so I went to the person that was fully armed with an umbrella, chair, cooler for some input. Just as they were explaining it to me, the Fabian seafood truck pulled up in the parking lot. I watched for the next five minutes as the Fabian food truck team set up with pit crew like speed. Approaching 50 years in business, the Fabian seafood truck picks up fresh seafood from the Gulf of Mexico and does a straight run, in a refrigerated truck, of course, straight to Omaha every several weeks in the warmer weather. Once you sign up, you're notified by text or postcard ahead of their arrival so that you can beat the crowd before they sell out. Text OMAHA to 409-402-0012 to join this secret society! Located in the Mangelsen's parking lot (3457 S 84th St, Omaha, NE 68124), just south of the vegetable and fruit stand. You can't miss it, as there's always a line of vehicles waiting for their arrival. I spoke to one woman who told me she had been buying from this Enterprise since she was a girl with her grandfather. Fish selections typically include red, snapper, shrimp, crab, and occasionally scallops. The price is definitely higher than what you're going to pay for at Costco for fresh freshly caught frozen shrimp however I have never had shrimp that are this good unless I visited the shoreline of Texas or Louisiana. You go to the table, place your order, or you can pay by card or cash, step aside, your bag of product comes out, and you move on! The shrimp counts are generous and always a little bit on the heavy side. The ambience consists of a refrigerated truck, plastic table, and awning, a cashbox, and a price sign manned by 2 to 3 people. And efficient operation that brings a taste of the Gulf of Mexico seafood to Omaha. We typically try to get down there at least once or twice a year and shrink wrap products to last us for a bit as there is discounts in larger quantity purchases.

This is an awesome seafood truck that parks at S 84th and Grover (near Manglesens). They have Gulf…read moreShrimp, crawfish,oysters, red snapper, and other seasonal seafood.

Plank has, unfortunately, announced they will be closing at the end of 2025, and while I did enjoy…read moresome of their food offerings, I can't say I'm super surprised. They definitely have/had some pretty high prices compared to other eateries in the area. I'm not sure if that is caused by cost of goods or location or what, but I think that did come into play when a lot of economic hardship is happening all over. Like I mentioned above, I DID like their food, but it definitely had to be a special occasion type of thing, due to the high prices. When we did go, I LOVED the Maryland Crab Dip. It reminded me of my favorite crab dip in the world, at the SweetWater Brewing Company in Atlanta. We also had the Green Bean Almandine that was on special last time we went and that was pretty good, but you have to be a green bean fan, for sure. I decided to try the sushi as my main dish last time, and had the Everything Crunch Maki, which consisted of cooked salmon, jalapeño, and cream cheese. It was pretty good, and had a little hint of spice to it from the jalapeño, which cut the heavy cream aspect. My husband had the Grilled Atlantic Salmon for his entree, and gave me a few bites. It was cooked well and the mushroom risotto below it was very flavorful and filling. The cute nautical ambiance and excellent service were always appreciated, so no complaints there either. I think if they had been in a different area with less expensive rent and cost of goods, I may have visited more often.

Plank Provisions was a complete homerun -- my favorite meal in Omaha, and likely my favorite meal I…read morehave had all summer. This spot was right by the hotel in Old Market, and we were early enough to get right in and grab a nice table (during happy hour, no less). The vibes are clean, nautical without being cheesy, and bright. The service was equally bright and helpful, and everything was flowing. On a super hot day, I had a Tom Collin's that was great and refreshing. Our group shared calamari with a top tier dipping sauce, an "aji verde" sauce that was new to me but I would buy it by the pint. We also shared their truffle fries and the side of mustard aioli was great as well. Best fries in a while. For my main, I got the blackened Mississippi catfish that was served over dirty rice, green beans, tomatoes, and a crawfish beurre blanc. It was as good as it sounds, I ate every bite on the plate. Okay, so let's recap: Amazing location? Check. Great service? Check. Good specials/happy hour? Check. Great food? Major check. Hard to top, I'll go here everytime I'm in the area and it was hard not to go back twice.

After enjoying countless outstanding meals at Shuck's Fish House & Oyster Bar on Pacific Street, I…read morefinally made it to the original Shuck's on Leavenworth in downtown Omaha. It was every bit as good as I had hoped. Shuck's knows seafood--and they know how to make dining fun. From their lively, engaging servers to their inviting atmosphere and unique menu offerings, everything comes together to create a memorable experience. Most importantly, the quality of the food consistently shines through. My wife and I ordered the Deep South Risotto, a delicious combination of fresh shrimp, Andouille sausage, and green beans tossed in a spicy, creamy risotto. We also enjoyed the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl, featuring perfectly cooked teriyaki-glazed salmon served over a blend of brown rice and red quinoa with tender sautéed broccoli. Paired with Shuck's famously ice-cold draft beer, these excellent entrées made for the perfect lunch before heading over to Big Ten Baseball at Charles Schwab Field Omaha. If you're visiting Omaha and find yourself downtown, make time for Shuck's Fish House & Oyster Bar. Great seafood, great atmosphere, and great service--you won't be disappointed.

The complimentary bread came with a delicious olive-and-pesto dipping sauce. For our entrées, I ordered the Cod Imperial, and my wife had the Parmesan-Crusted Rainbow Trout. We finished the meal with pineapple cheesecake and mango crème brûlée. Everything was served promptly and at the proper temperature. My cod was cooked perfectly, and the lemon-and-caper sauce was very well balanced, with just the right amount of acidity. I also tried my wife's trout, and it was equally excellent. The Parmesan crust and the other ingredients came together beautifully. The side dishes were prepared to the same high standard as the entrées. The broccoli was fresh, crisp, and flavorful. The desserts were spectacular. The only drawback is that they are seasonal, so anyone interested in trying them should visit soon. They are definitely worth it. The service was attentive, the food was carefully prepared, and the entire experience made our anniversary dinner especially enjoyable. We would gladly return and highly recommend Fishbone and Grill to anyone looking for a very good seafood restaurant in Omaha.

Wait staff were attentive, knew their products and had great recommendations. On the way out we purchased andouille sausages, jalapeño sausages, seafood enchiladas and ceviche. These were all from their store front kiosk and will be enjoyed by the rest of the family. Highly recommend you stop for a meal.

I ordered their 3 piece catfish with French fries. It was cooked to order, which means absolutely fresh, not sitting under a heat lamp. The fish was cooked perfectly, and seasoned to perfection. I don't know what they seasoned the fries with, but they were so good, you didn't need catchup. They have a small eating area under a awning, which was nice, no sun beating down on you, or if were raining you are sheltered. They were the nicest people who took my order, and during a Slack moment, the owner came out and talked to me. What nice young gentleman. I wish them well, and success.

They have tons of different types of fish (obviously), as well a lot of accouterment to pair with the fish, like breads, deli salads, spices and sauces, and liquors that pair well with certain fish.

Absolutely not, but it's one of the freshest and highest quality l have seen. It definitely has to be a once in a while thing, due to the cost, but if you're wanting to make a nice seafood meal at home, then shopping at Absolutely Fresh would be one of the top choices to check out.
