Feedback
Butterfish stands out as a top sushi destination in Omaha, praised for its flavorful dishes like pork belly sliders, sriracha honey wings, and creative rolls. The cocktail menu, especially whiskey-based drinks, receives high marks for balance and refreshment. While many highlight the attentive and friendly staff, some note inconsistent service speed—particularly during busy times—and occasional issues with seating and order delays. The ambiance is lively and inviting, though parking may require some patience. Despite minor drawbacks like worn menus and front-door attitudes, Butterfish consistently delivers excellent food and a welcoming vibe that keeps patrons returning.
The flavors here are quite good. I tried a vegan sushi roll, but it cost me $8. I don't think that sushi roll was worth that price.
Ashley and Eva were so kind and attentive at the bar on a Friday night even when we came in late! Ashley chatted with us, asked the cooks if they would make a roll even after the kitchen was closed and made us drinks! We are so appreciative of their service and will absolutely be back for more amazing food!
Was my first time trying butterfish! The food was very good but nothing too special! The wings were my favorite part, but the food did take a very long time to come out. They did forget one dish we had and then we got it about 10ish maybe 15 minutes after all the rest of the food. But a pretty good place!
Front of house was very professional during a busy evening. Sincere service. Food was predictable and tasty.
This is my favorite Sushi place in Omaha! I love the pork belly slider and the siracha honey wings for appetizers. The drinks are fantastic and with really balanced flavor, not too strong and not too flavorless, just perfect. The staff is always nice and attentive and they are always checking in on you to make sure you have everything. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!
