Tavern 180 was a pleasant surprise. We were guided to the location by a member of our group from Missouri no less. She having googled the good ratings made the call. Tavern 180 is perhaps not the best name but I sure do like everything else this establishment represents. Excellent drinks, high end, tasty meals, nice selection of desserts. In door dimly lit lighting makes it a great date spot. Indoor and outdoor seating. Not a huge amount of space so maybe call ahead, as I could see it filling up on certain days. Give it a try.

I checked out Tavern 180 tonight for dinner. I had the Blue Cheese Burger and Brandi had the Wagyu Burger. To say it was delicious would be an understatement. The atmosphere was upscale casual and the staff A+. Definitely a place to go again and again.

The restaurant itself was really nice and had a cool vibe but the food and drinks were really disappointing. Spent $300 and expected good drinks at the very least. The food was honestly not good enough to finish. We didn’t even take home the left overs. Over priced for how not impressive the food was. The overview said they were family friendly and offered kids menus but when we asked for one all they said was they could throw together some sliders and fries for the kids.

They were very accommodating and friendly in spite of the fact that we dropped in with a group of 20 and no reservation. The cocktails are amazing and fun! We only had appetizers. The wagyu beef sliders and the margarita flatbread were YUMMY. The service was phenomenal!

We’ve been here twice now, it’s been incredible. The food is always great, drinks are fun, and the service is always spectacular. The seared ahi tuna is incredible and the warm butter cake is to die for!

Had our first visit to Tavern 180 and it was delicious! Love the decor and bar and we had everything from appetizers to sandwiches and steaks. All werefantastic! The butter cake dessert is to die for. Excellent selection of spirits. My one and only complaint was no draft beers but the other cocktails we're very good. Highly recommend!

If you haven’t made it out to Tavern 180 you are missing out. This place is great; fun drinks, amazing menu, great people, and deserves 6 stars!! You have to try the warm butter cake at the end of your meal. (Or get it before your meal, whatever, I’m not your mom).

The place was clean and staff very friendly. Michael was our server she was very sweet. Food a little pricey but worth it. I’ve never had a good hamburger in Lincoln, will definitely come back ! If you’re here get the heaven cake it was amazing!
