"Vitáme
Vás is
the house motto, meaning “we welcome you,” and
in fact this is a place where all are made to feel
welcome, whether you are an old-timer whose parents
brought you here decades ago or a visiting fireman
who wants a fun-time meal with polka music setting
the beat in the dining room. It is an immensely cheerful
place, a vast, multi-room eating hall decorated with
colorful old-country woodwork and pictures of men
and women in traditional peasant attire; tables are
patrolled by veteran professional waitresses in bright
red dirndl skirts."

"Seriously,
Czech it out!
The Bohemian Cafe was nothing
less than delightful. The menu offered an interesting
variety of dishes all of which one would expect
to find at a remote inn situated in the Bohemian
or Morovian countryside’s.
The Bohemian Cafe also offers some fine Czech beers
from a really cool lounge just off the kitchen. If
in Omaha one should seriously think about dining
at the Bohemian Cafe not only because the fare is
fantastic, but because the Bohemian Cafe in itself
is unique and overly accommodating. Nashledanou i
dobrou chut'! "

" I
am Czech and so the Bohemian Cafe is our #1 destination
in Omaha. The portions are always more than ample and
the Czech ambiance and flavors couldn't be beat. Thank
you for being in Omaha. Have you ever thought of expanding
to Lincoln, NE? "

"This convivial, pub-style Czech restaurant has been in the Kapoun family
since 1947, and so have many of the recipes. Grandpa Josef used to play his
piano in the dining room; today, second-, third-, and fourth-generation family
members are still making beautiful restaurant music with Czech-style sauerbraten,
roast duck, and kolaches (fruit-filled pastries). "The two
best places to eat are here and at home," says manager Marsha Kapoun."

"Several years ago, while traveling through eastern
Nebraska, a radio jingle lured us to the ethnic enclave
of south Omaha. "It's dumplings and kraut today
at the Bohemian Cafe," the appetizing advertisement
said; and sure enough, that night in this unpretentious
old-world eatery, we savored not only dumplings and kraut,
but also mighty platters of tender boiled beef with dill
gravy and masterfully cooked, crisp-skinned duck."
