    Was in town for the Nebraska football game and looking for a place for dinner after the game to allow traffic to settle down before heading for home. Had been here a few times several years back when in Lincoln and decided to return this time. Reservation was easy using the app. Selected the time we wanted for after the game without a problem. Quaint spot just south of downtown. Menu was still varied, with many options and daily specials. Ellie was our server and she was great. Personable, informative, and very friendly. I had the lobter bisque and my wife had a garden salad. Both were tasty. She ordered the seafood platter with salmon, crab cake and trout, served with risotto and asparagus. I had the crab crusted salmon with risotto, spinach and zucchini. Both meals were delicious with large portions. Desserts looked great but, no room after the entrees. Happy hour every day with drink and appetizer specials. We highly recommend this spot for date night, getting together with friends or for just a fun place to go. Thanks to Green Gateau for another good experience and a great meal.

    Great to have a restaurant in Lincoln with great flavor combinations and unique variety on the menu. We enjoyed our visit after a football game where the rest of downtown was loud and obnoxious, Dish was calm and relaxing.

    Went to The Oven in the Haymarket because the other one is closed on Mondays. We were celebrating birthdays for my son and daughter. Our waiter Vince was the best! The food was outstanding as always. Love The Oven Haymarket vibes! We all had a great evening.
