Truly is the best dining view in Omaha. Whether for dinner, drinks, or a wedding reception, you can't find a more beautiful experience. I've held many private functions at the club and am always impressed by how well the staff responds to my needs.

Went last night. Here are a few reasons why I'm in no hurry to return.
1. They lost our reservation, but refused to seat us at a regular table down by the windows where we could enjoy the views. We had to sit at the big round firepit table, which meant you really only got to converse with those sitting next to you. Many tables remained empty the entire time we were there, but alas, with no reservation...
2. They don't have milk. Very odd for a restaurant. Who does't have a single jug of milk somewhere in the kitchen?
3. My nephews menu was blank. He opened it up and just blank nothing. Not a huge deal by any means, but worth noting in light of the rest of the issues.
4. When a member of my party opened her menu, a bug crawled out. It was a small bug, but she said it looked like a roach. We are on the 22nd floor mind you. If there's a bug up here, it has good reason to be. It's not like we're eating on a patio. Somewhere, there is filth that attracted this bug.
5. They don't refill your water unless you call them over and ask. Once again...minor stuff, but it adds up.
6. Wasn't really blown away by the food. The menu is actually pretty limited and the quality of food for the price does not seem on par with other restaurants in this category. We're not unfamiliar with dining at this price point. We know what to expect and we didn't get it, not by a long shot.
The staff were nice enough, and the views are outstanding, but honestly this place felt like an establishment that has been banking on their reputation and location to bring people through the door for far too long. They're not trying. We would have had a better experience at Applebees for 1/3 the cost. OPC feels like the kind of place that needs to be purchased, revamped from the ground up, and reopened under new management.
