This is our third time here (lunch, group dinner, & happy hour) and it is highly recommend! We went right at the beginning of happy hour today and ordered oysters, the smoked muscles, and the smoked fish spread. The bartender was personable and great conversationalist! For drinks we had the house Chardonnay, Plank’s Mule, cucumber collins, port old fashion, and two drinks of “dealers choice” from the bartender. All were amazing
We had a fantastic early dinner before a concert. All day happy hour on Sundays was a bonus! Oysters and beignets for appetizers were great, and we loved our scallops and salmon entrees. Cocktails were good as well.
Looks like I've been on a roll lately. Two places in a row gets 5 stars all around. First time eating here and I'm glad we did. It's in a great area in walking distance to many other restaurants and small stores. We even passed a guy playing jazz on a sax as we walked to the restaurant. I love that type of atmosphere.
We felt very comfortable once we got inside. The windows everywhere gives the place an energetic yet serene vibe.
Our server was amazing and made us feel very welcomed. She made sure that we were satisfied with all of our needs. Very professional and courteous. I'm very bad at remembering names but she was the best.
Everything we ordered was top notch delicious. The smoked fish dip and crackers with pickled red onion was foreign to my taste buds and very flavorful. I don't care for onions but these were very good.
I ordered the blackened catfish and my wife ordered the Atlantic salmon. Our two sides were roasted potatoes and charred broccolini. For dessert I had banana bread pudding with caramelized bananas and ice cream and my wife had something that was chocolate on chocolate with peanut butter. She said it was very sweet. My dessert was perfect and went great with my rooibos vanilla tea. Everything was great. No complaints.
Modern, hip downtown restaurant with great food. The shrimp toast was outstanding and different. Fresh oysters were on everyone's list. 1/2 price during Happy Hour! Beer selection a bit domestic but the Anchor Steam Ale from San Francisco worked well with the seafood.
We had a great experience with the service, the wine, beer, and drinks plus the excellent food. The oysters were definitely fresh!
Had an impromptu visit to Plank with a couple of lady friends. It was about closing time, but we were hungry. We sat by the bar, drank wine, and had the best conversation and food imaginable. The bartender was very welcoming to our late visit, and the food was impeccable. We shared dressed oysters and snapper ceviche as our appetizers. I enjoyed the Ahi Tuna. All of which were perfection. Another great visit to an amazing restaurant downtown Omaha.
This place just has all the great things going on! We ordered the calamari, the fish tacos, hush puppies w/ jalapeño jam, and the oysters. I don’t like oysters at all, but the funky oysters were incredibly smooth and went down easily! The hush puppies were phenomenal, they were moist and had a ton of flavor, though simple ingredients were used. The fish taco had this amazing slaw on top that brought out all the freight flavors you want in fish, and it wasn’t at all fishy! 10/10 would recommend this place
Absolutely loved this place. Probably the best seafood in Midwest. Excellent flavors, great, friendly service and very chill ambiance. No one is rushing you, just sit and enjoy. Definitely recommend to try all fresh oysters and banana bread pudding 🤤
We went to Plank this weekend with our friends and loved it! First our server was fantastic. Super friendly, helpful, and on top of everything.
Starters: We ordered a variety of starters (fish dip, crispy rice cakes, and calamari. All delicious!
Cocktails: We tried some cocktails and our favorite was the cucumber collins cocktail. Its a light and easy drink that screams summer. We also ordered the strawberry surfer and were pleasantly surprised to see it come with a fun flamingo in it. At the end of the meal we got the bloody mark plank (and it came with a shrimp on it).
Entrees: 2 of us ordered the sea scallops plate (with squid ink pasta), 1 of us ordered the daily catch sea scallops, and one of us got the blackened fish taco plate. By far the crowd pleaser was the sea scallops with squid ink pasta. If you're on the fence get the squid ink pasta! On both scallop dinners the scallops were amazing but the sides on the daily catch dinner were nothing to write home about.
One of my favorite place to eat and drink! Fantastic Happy Hour, and every hour! The food is divine, I am never disappointed here!! Had the Oysters Rockefeller last night and it was the best I have ever eaten! Delicious appetizers, good wine list and fun staff. PEI Mussels are a must, and the Clam strips were thick and meaty with a generous portion. Try the Raw Oysters too, they are fresh and tasty! Definitely fit for foodies!
*love the ever changing menu, and the staff is the BEST!
Great oysters! Highly recommended! Their beet salad is great as well! Happy hour definitely will make you happy!
Bumped into this place while strolling around the Old Market. We are not from the area so we are skeptical as to where to eat dinner after being under the sun in the zoo the whole day. We had hush puppies for app, 1lb king crab legs, pasta, surf and turf with crab legs, mussels, curry rice, 3 cocktails, and 2 desserts for $382 (tip excluded). It was not a bad price for the amount and quality of food we got for the 4 of us 😍 This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable host and knowledgeable server, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide wine list and wonderful dessert. I recommend to everyone! I would like to come back here again if we made another trip to the area.
We came for happy hour & started off with the oysters & some drinks. I will say the cocktail was pretty stout so I appreciated that. Service was top notch. Got the Brussels sprouts as an app & those were delicious. Our final meal was the Halibut & Ahi Tuna. The Halibut was pricey for the amount of food we got but it was v cooked to perfection. The Ahi Tuna was amazing & and I’ll definitely get that entree again. Overall great experience & great food! We’ll be back
Plank is a classy place. We hadn’t eaten there in a few years and their menu changed pretty dramatically. Our favorite, the clam chowder, is still our favorite. It’s delicious. I tried the special, King Crab Pasta. The black noodles were a surprise and chewy, not what I was expecting. The sauce was flavorful, though.
My friend and I came from Kansas City for Doja and had a great time. Our server, I apologize I forgot his name, but he was a bartender as well I believe. He fulfilled my friends special request for a few grilled oysters on the side! He made us feel very welcome and ensured we had a wonderful experience. The manager was also very nice when he came to check on us. We will definitely come back when we visit again.
Since I've moved to the Midwest, I've been missing seafood. This hit the spot! I love the variety of seafood options, and the oysters were delicious. The atmosphere is really cool, the decor makes you feel like you are on a boat. I got the grilled snapper, and it was perfect. It was exactly what I was looking for.
I’ve been here several times. The first time it took a weirdly long time before we were greeted by a server. After that hiccup, though, everything was great! Friendly service and all three of us really enjoyed what we ordered. We had the golden beets appetizer, Atlantic salmon, blackened catfish, and oysters, and everything was delicious! I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. They’re also great at making wine pairing recommendations - haven’t had a miss yet.
This is our second time here and if you like seafood this is a must when you are in Omaha. The salmon crudo was delicious! We had it with some saltine crackers. Oysters are in point as well.
This place was amazing. We went 2 nights in a row because it was so good. The shrimp toast app was delicious and the striped bass was one of the best fish entrees I've ever had!
