    Our meal was amazing. The squash donuts, lobster dumplings, and potatoes and caviar plus wonderful wine were the perfect end to our day. We continue to be amazed by Rachel's creativity. The service was top-notch. This is our favorite place.

    Unfortunately Dish is no longer the place where environment and fine dining fuse. We still love the food, unfortunately the actual location needs to be updated as it is calling for immediate renovation. The bathroom stinks and is old, the chairs are need to be upholstered and the service staff need to ware appropriate clothing that aligns with a place where at some point in time was considered un upscale restaurant in Lincoln. We paid over $100 for our meal and we believe that as a customer is important to share our honest feedback, simply because we want Dish to continue with their business in this community.

    The NYE tasting menu was full of flavor and beautifully presented. We love Dish and frequent the restaurant often, but they really outdid themselves this time. The cocktail/wine pairings were stellar as well. This was a great way for us to ring in the New Year.

    Of course the service is a huge part of the experience and the service we received was outstanding. The food and drinks were excellent. FYI also had an after dinner drink at their new place The Sitch and can’t wait to go back again and try the whole experience.
