    Food was great and service was very good. The service was very polite and willing to help. A bit of a bummer that a few of the dishes weren’t available but our server helped us navigate around it and we all had wonderful meals.

    I’ve traveled around the world and I would put Dish as one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. And it’s in Lincoln, Nebraska!

    Honestly, I generally have always liked Dish. But this was not a great experience. It was extremely slow. We waited an hour and a half to get our food. Waitress really had low to no cares about us and our experience. The food was plated very nicely as always. However my meal was not even warm when I received it. My son’s meal was overcooked. Generally not a great experience this time. 😢

    Another incredible dining experience at Dish! We celebrated my husband's birthday with family and shared a few starters - our favorites were the mussels + chorizo, duck fat potatoes, and beets + apples. Our server was great, explaining different dishes and cocktail options. I thoroughly enjoyed the tofu entree, which included delicata squash and red curry. I love the details that go into setting Dish apart from other spots in Lincoln!

    This place was really really good. Our server Evan was fantastic. The beets and apples were incredible. Probably the best beets dish I have ever had. Go with the small plates and split them. No need for the larger traditional dishes.
