We had seen this restaurant on Man Versus Food. We tried it and enjoyed a great steak. It gets busy in the evenings so maybe make reservations. We were lucky and arrived prior to it being full. The whiskey marinate is the best. Ask for the Ribeye. Also, make sure to get the steak cooked one level higher. Medium is... More

Second time eating there. It's a funky place. Great steaks. I'd go there again, but would need to get a bank loan to do it. More

After living in the Omaha area for almost 20 years, we thought it was time to try the Drover. We didn't have a reservation, so a 40-minute wait for dinner wasn't a shock. We settled in the bar with a glass of wine for me and a local beer for Husband. We were pleasantly surprised when we were taken to... More

Great steaks and higher priced but a nice and quiet environment. Been around for many years and still successful. More

Now the Drover is a hidden gem and Omaha staple. If you want a mouth watering, melt in your mouth, jack marinated steak and a baked potato the size of your head than head to the Drover and enjoy!! More

We were at the Drover a couple of weeks before this past Christmas on a Wednesday night. It was so loud in there we were practically able to take part in everyone else's conversations. The waitress literally had to yell "Would you like something to drink?" and everything thereafter. There were six of us and I could not hear anyone... More

The whisky filet is fantastic. The ambiance is low-lit, and reminds me of a men's club (The whiskey, cigar, leather chair kind) from another time. I have gone there dressed formally and casually. The bartenders are excellent, and there's a full bar. More

Went here from the Courtyard in LaVista based on recommendation. Glad we did. Great service, nice salad bar and nice delicious, gorgeous beef. Nothing pretentious about Drover - meat is what they do and they do it well. Had the bone in Ribeye and if I wasn't there with a colleague I would have sucked the bone clean! More

Step in and step back in time to the early '70s. A bit dark, warm and charming. Very basic salad bar. Had their signature Whiskey Filet - it was terrific. Wait staff was friendly and we were served promptly. Was on the pricey side while not be exhorborant (Whiskey Filet was about $39.00 & includes the salad bad and a... More

The Drover has been consistently delicious for years. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, the food is prepared to order and amazing, the prices are reasonable, and the service is always prompt and friendly. The whiskey marinade is mouth watering, love it on a bone-in steak! I really enjoyed the shrimp app on my last visit, too. I'm not a... More
