    Cute restaurant. The food was really good though a bit pricy for Omaha. The portion sizes were perfect. The major problem was the service and timing. Our server was nice but I think he forgot to put our order in. There were 2 people serving and there were literally only 4 tables of people in the whole restaurant, but for some reason it took a full hour from the time we sat down to the time we received our food. Initially it took 20 minutes from the time we sat until he came to speak with us. As a former restaurant manager that is unacceptable. We ordered out drinks and food at the same time because we were starving and it took so long for him to come. Then we proceeded to wait 15 minutes for the drinks and 40 minutes for the food. Mind you there were two, possibly 3 servers, plus a bartender, plus a host and what appeared to be a busser working. I can’t imagine the kitchen was backed up because again there were only 4 table and it was a Saturday night. The server apologized for the long wait but never explained why. We even told him he could bring stuff out as it was ready as there were only 3 of us, with only one eating meat which sometimes takes a while.

    Our steaks were prepared as requested. One well done and the other medium-rare. Both were excellent. Our waiter, Jackson, made the meal special. Great atmosphere, great food, great people. Hard to beat.

    Everyone that "helped" us were friendly and professional. The food was delicious and the cocktails very tasty. Good wine list too. We took advantage of the rooftop for drinks afterwards.

    We booked weeks out based on the brunch menu online. That menu was not available for graduation weekend. We were not notified in advance and I saw nothing on the website day of. The menu provided was very abbreviated. Since this property is affiliated with UNL and is a training location I had higher expectations. Everyone liked the decor and ambiance.
    Well & GoodResponded on May 20, 2025
    Dear Mara, Thank you for choosing to dine with us during such a special time. Graduation weekend is one of our favorites, and we're so honored to play a small role in helping celebrate. We're truly sorry for any misunderstanding and frustration caused. It's always our goal to provide clear communication across all channels, so we assure you that we'll discuss your comments and adjust to prevent any similar missteps. It's our hope that everyone was still able to enjoy their dining experience and the time together. If you find yourself in the area again, know that we would be very grateful for the chance to serve you again.

    Well and Good seems to have the potential to be a great restaurant, but they missed the mark on Sunday evening. Our waiter seemed to be stretched pretty thin; service was slow although he was moving constantly from table to table. The appetizer came after the meal. The gnocchi was under cooked and cool, so sent back to be reheated. I don’t know if they were short staffed on this date, but that’s the way it seemed. Too bad for everyone.
    Well & GoodResponded on May 15, 2025
    Dear Leslie, We are very sorry that your dining experience fell short of your expectations. What you have shared is not an accurate representation of our service, and we are committed to addressing your comments and ensuring improvements are made swiftly. It was a pleasure having you here, and we hope to have another chance to change your perceptions in the future.

    There seemed to be only one server in the floor at the time of our reservation. They were doing their best considering the situation; it was a decently full restaurant on Mother’s Day Sunday. Entrees took awhile. Everything tasted good but you’re paying for each item. Not bad, but not sure if I will go back.
    Well & GoodResponded on May 13, 2025
    Dear Shai, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed our cuisine and appreciated the effort of our server. Rest assured, we also understand that the wait time and pricing affected your visit, and your comments will be taken into consideration. It was a pleasure having you here, and we hope to have another chance to go above and beyond for you in the future.

    $225 for 4 people, everything was hard- so hard it was difficult to cut through with a knife. Pancakes, waffles, etc. some items were cold- the hashbrown casserole was mush or hard, no in between. The muffins were straight out of the fridge and not thawed. Our waiter didn't check on us for additional drinks until we were done eating. We still ordered more mimosas and he didn't come back till the end. It was our birthdays and there were no desserts for us to order. I love dining experiences, great atmosphere, food, new places - I'm from the West Coast so food and gatherings are important and this was the worst in years.
    Well & GoodResponded on April 22, 2025
    Dear Neomi, We're incredibly disappointed to hear about your recent experience. We strive to ensure delicious culinary offerings and attentive service, and we extend our apologies for falling short of our standards on this occasion. This important feedback will be discussed internally; we're determined to make the necessary improvements. Thank you for sharing this, and we hope you might consider returning, as we'd appreciate another chance to impress you.
