J. Gilbert's Wood-Fired Steaks & Seafood Omaha

Solid downtown steakhouse. We enjoyed the service from our wonderful waiter and all enjoyed our meals. One important thing to note is that three of us ordered filet mignons and we all ordered them medium. Interestingly, each steak was a different color and came out different, despite the identical orders. I am not complaining because mine was delicious, but some may find the steak doneness inconsistency disconcerting. Another tip is that I wouldn’t recommend coming early for a drink at the bar - it is very small and was completely packed. We had to go elsewhere before our meal.

This was our first time coming here to J Gilbert’s. I got the combo filet with crab cake and oh my gosh was it amazing! Also got the bisque soup and probably one of the best soups I have ever had. We were celebrating our one year anniversary and my 30th birthday. I also couldn’t believe how amazing the steak was and was just blown away! They offered us a complimentary champagne toast which was very thoughtful! We finished it off with the chocolate cake and the carrot and all I have to say is wow!!! Even though our server was newer, Alexis didn’t disappoint. She was very attentive and nice and made our experience an unforgettable one! We will definitely be back and look forward to more delicious meals!

From the moment we walked in the door our experience was exceptional. Our server was beyond friendly & helpful. She shared with us her favorite items on the menu & explained the flavor & seasonings for each. I would highly recommend enjoying dinner with family or friends any time.

Stopped here as we got the timing wrong for our show at the Holland Center and had an extra hour and half to burn. I'm glad we did. We got the 3 course meal and everything was perfection. Our waitress was great! We were in and out and ready for the show with just enough time!

Wish I took pics of food. First time here last Saturday. Made reservations without problem. Waiting seconds to be seated. So pretty inside. We sat at top and the Creighton Blue Jays we’re having a recruitment dinner. Food was delish. Had sirloin, med rare, mashed potatoes and Mac n cheese with lobster. My honey likes To get salmon no matter where we go. He loved it. Also had the oyster Rockefeller. He even tried for first time and like it. Had left overs but was so upset I left it in car overnight. Seriously thought of eating it. We will be back!!!!! Update: went back. Food still good and Jordan was awesome. I got food pics this time!

My table ordered the cowboy cut ribeye with poblano potatoes au gratin and asparagus and the maple plank salmon. Both were fantastic. The ribeye was extremely flavorful and tender, making it the perfect steakhouse steak. J. Gilbert improved it, though, by making it very smokey. The same can be said of the salmon, which was very tender and flavorful. Of the sides, I highly reccomend the green beans and potatoes au gratin. The green beans were topped with delicious caramelized onions that reminded me of my mom's French onion soup and the potatoes were rich and perfectly spicy. Our service was impeccable. Our server, Armando, was funny and charming and we never felt rushed throughout the meal. Since my table was celebrating a birthday, Armando brought a complimentary slice of chocolate cake and raspberry sorbet. The cake was wonderfully rich and almost fudgey and the sorbet tasted more like raspberries than normal raspberries. It was a perfect way to finish the night. Of the beverage menu, my table ordered the pineapple and blackberry martinis which were both hits, but the blackberry was slightly better in my opinion. If you are a fan of of old fashioneds, you absolutely must get the smoked old fashioned. It is a stunning take on a simple drink and my favorite of what we tried.

JGilberts is a great steakhouse. We enjoy the Prix Fix menu that offers 3 courses for 51 and 61 dollars depending on your choice. The service is amazing. Steaks are cooked to order and very tender. Don't expect a cheap meal, though. Our last bill was $170 for two.

WOW! I've been wanting to try this Restaraunt for quite some time. I'm so Incredibly pleased I finally did. Everything here was amazing from the drinks to dinner to the service and ambiance. We started our evening with the Old fashioned and I was mighty impressed. Balanced, smooth, and one of the most impressive ones I have found in Omaha. We may have had 2. The blue cheese potato chips were ordered as our appetizer and they were phenomenal. Crab cakes were outstanding and I dont order seafood much in Nebraska for obvious reasons. I would order these a thousand times again. The wild mushrooms with truffle butter were absolutely delicious and melted in my mouth. Yum! And the carrot cake *sigh* so so good. But I could barely eat my share. J. Gilbert's exceeded my expectations and all items were cooked to perfection. In my opinion the menu is full of items with intense flavor and without a doubt perfectly crafted.

I'd give 3.5 Stars if that was possible. We had an early Valentine's dinner here on Friday. The Valentine's Day Special menu started at 3 and our reservation was at 7:15 (at the beginning of a 4 day stretch of this menu being available, ending today, Valentine's Day). I ordered the filet and lobster, was told this was no longer available, the Blood and Marriage drink special - not available, the Bacon Bourbon - not available. I understand that there are currently supply chain issues, but it would have been nice if the waitress would have maybe even been a little bit apologetic, instead of pointing at the menu and stating "this, this and this is not available, sorry". The food was great, filet and shrimp were as I would expect from a restaurant of this level. Presentation was a bit underwhelming. Our waitress Mary was friendly and professional, not the most engaging.

Amazing atmosphere, service and food. Everything feels very upscale, making it a great place for a fancy date night or business dinner. Here’s a tip: Get the carrot cake. We were going back and forth but finally decided to order it when we saw it arrive at a nearby table. It’s incredibly rich, and the piece was giant. The cake itself is so moist and spiced, but the filling, frosting and additional sauce just take it over the edge. Order the carrot cake.
