All ok; except the wattress assigned to our table had to leave unexpectedly. Management didn't notice she had left and we were without service for approximately 15-20 minutes. Finally, one of the area waiters saw we didn't have an assigned waiter and took care of us.

We decided to celebrate New Year’s Day at the Upstream. The food was absolutely horrible, what food they had out. So many items that weren’t refilled until we were ready to leave, our reservation was at 12:15. Runny scrambled eggs were the worst thing, we didn’t even get full eating at a buffet. We had to go and find silverware, just a very bad experience. My husband had never eaten the buffet before and I had not been there for about 5 years. Needless to say, we won’t be back. The $70.00 bill for two people for buffet, one coffee and one orange juice, with tip, was definitely not worth it! We were very disappointed in our experience. I am always the first to complement a restaurant or server for a great job and very seldom complain but this just deserved being posted.

We have had their Sunday Brunch Buffet before and it was always really good. This time, the tilapia was so over cooked, part of it had the consistency of jerky. Same for the chicken - over cooked and dry. Staff had a hard time keeping the desert table supplied. Truthfully the only part of the meal we enjoyed was the omelets and the hot coffee.

We love this place! Excellent food at a reasonable price in the wonderful Old Market. It's located in an old Firehouse which is super cool. On a warm day, eat outside on street level or on the rooftop! We have never been disappointed with our experience here. Also, Hollywood Candy is right around the corner, so take a stroll over there to see one of the coolest destinations in Omaha.

We had a lovely time and were thankful we made a reservation. Server was good, he was prompt and answered all our questions. Felt he wasn't very warm but that may be his personality. It certainly didn't stop us from having a wonderful meal with good service. The food was amazing and we would come back again in a heartbeat.
