DJ's Dugout Sports Bar - Downtown

Don't go to this restaurant during an event at Century Link!!! Fair warning! I've been to this restaurant before and usually get decent service and decent bar food. Went there before a concert last night and there was only patio seating (5:45 pm concert starts 7:30). I asked if there was service on the patio and was assured there was. About 6:25 with no wait staff in sight I asked again at the bar if there was Thanks service. They said yes we are busy and someone would be right out. I was polite and said thanks! Waited until 6:45 I went and asked again, a waitress said she was the patio waitress and would be out. I said I understand your busy and gave her $20 asked her for a menu and come see us in 10 minuets. She thanked me. 7:10 rolls around still nobody. Went and asked the bar tender for a manager he said and I quote "we are busy there is no way he can help you...". I have been in the service business and have been extremely polite and understanding to this point so I get it. I said I just want to know if we can order or if we need to eat and the venue. Another waitress said no we will be right out.... "we are busy". I did make a remark at that point saying "yes too busy so too bad for us right", she agreed (I made a rude statement so I kind of deserved a rude answer back I admit) 7:30 rolls around and finally after half the restaurant left we were served. I paid our check right away so we would not have to wait for it. TL/DR - bottom line they cannot handle a full restaurant or prepare for a busy night. Don't go if you want to get to your event in time!

I had fish and chips. The waitress brought malt vinegar packets out with it. I didn't even have to ask! That's never happened to me before! I will definitely come here again the next time I'm in Omaha. It was super busy before the Neil Diamond convert but we still had a great time. Fun place.

Probably the most disappointing $48 meal myself and my husband have ever had. $7 for 6 mozzarella sticks, and my $11 burger was very evidently a frozen pre-formed patty. The only redeeming thing was service.

Ate lunch here practically every day when i was working at the Capitol aptmnts and new hilton. Great wait staff! Always very friendly and accommodating!

My husband and I were visiting from PA and bought tickets to a concert at the CenturyLink Arena across the street from DJ's. The box office attendant neglected to inform me that only small purses were allowed. We took a cab to the show and they wouldn't let me in. I didn't know what to do. We took everything I deemed important out of my purse and placed the things in our pockets. We went into DJ's Dugout, which happened to be at our taxi stand. I explained my situation to the hostess and the bartender and they had no problem storing my purse until after the concert. I am forever grateful and will definitely visit the establishment on our next trip to the Omaha area because of this. Thank you all so much!
