Timber Wood Fire Bistro

I am not just giving 5 stars to every category because the food was good; literally everything was amazing, even the bathrooms. Scratch-made food with locally sourced ingredients, the flavors were beyond my expectations. A romantic and inviting atmosphere with innovative lighting and great music. The manager made an effort to stop at every table to ensure all is well. Must try! Second visit a couple months later, and I was served by Ossama: holy wow! What a great server he was. Again, the food and the service was fantastic. This time some of the little things stood out. The server Ossama gave me a new fork after the appetizer. For the Milanese Meatballs, there is a chunk of mozzarella underneath each meatball, very thoughtfully crafted. And the cherry struesal was great. The server Ossama gave me plasticware for my to-go containers and bagged everything. Can't say enough good about this place!

On a work trip, Timber Wood Fire Bistro was close to my hotel and at first glance, appeared to be original and a break from the expected chains...and I was right! The atmosphere is very classic and reminded me of being in Whistler, BC! Super classy without being stuffy. Very clean and fresh with a relaxed, cozy vibe. I had the Meatball and Rigatoni, and I was so very happily suprised! I'm debating I'd this was the very best pasta dish I've had, anywhere! The entire dish is homemade and tasted about as fresh as you can imagine. The noodles were perfectly cooked, the meatballs spectacular and plentiful, and the sauce! The sauce was a breath of fresh air! Spicy and a perfect consistency! Not thin and watery and not thick and pasty. It was excellent! I don't come to Omaha often, but will find an excuse just to come here again!

I rarely give a restaurant such praise, but this establishment hands down is the best restaurant in Nebraska. I don't say that lightly. The woodsmoked veggies alone blew our absolute minds off. The way they held their crunch, juiciness. It was memorable. The steak with the chimichuri was the star of the show. The focaccia with the ricotta truffle oil was out of this world. What can I say? I'm a sucker for outstanding service and food. The chefs deserve all the praises in the world the unsung heros of the night. Thank you chefs and servers for the memorable night. We will be coming back.

3.5/5 not a bad experience but I think I just had higher expectations! We had a reservation made earlier in the week for 7:30 for 2 people. We showed up around 5 minutes early and didn't get seated until 8. The atmosphere was cute-ish. The focaccia was a great app, one of my favorite parts of the experience! Drinks didn't come out until right before the entrees so that was a little disappointing, but not a huge deal. They did taste good! Our waiter was good at giving recommendations and friendly enough. Steak and Frites came out a little over cooked for a medium rare and the poblano chimichurri sauce was not included in the dish. Fries were so good though!

Cute little spot in Omaha! They were very accommodating of our large group (9) with just an hour notice. My stepdad really enjoyed his flatbread and overall everything ordered was pretty dang good. However, the real star is the durum focaccia. This is hands down the best bread I've ever had at a restaurant. It comes with housemade ricotta and honey too. I'll be personally disappointed in you if you come here and don't get the focaccia. Seriously. It's that good.
