Hotel Deco - Omaha, NE Monarch Restaurant Quiet, romantic place within Hotel Deco. Went to brunch - with 30 mins to go, the place was empty until a large party arrived. Excellent service! Amazing, chef-inspired food full of flavor. Coffee, delicious. No reservations required. Highly recommend. Will return for brunch, try other items and the dinner menu. Price: 12-15 per meal.

This is a fun place! Lots of stuff to see and the people watching is excellent. We shared the wyobi steak tartar...this was a first for me, but we heard they have the best in the area, "can't go wrong", so we tried it. It was excellent! The bar tender did an amazing job too...professional at every level. Highly recommended!!!

Quiet, cool spot to share with family and friends. Drinks and food were both excellent. The way it should be when you go to a place like this. We love to cook, and we felt like our food and drinks were made with care like our own family was serving us all weekend. Thank you.

We had a wonderful experience after the opera this last Sunday. I was a huge fan of this place before the pandemic and since then it changed head chefs. I have been hesitant to return. It was slow for a Sunday, but there are not a whole lot of places open at that time downtown. Truthfully, I was pleasantly surprised. They had a great wine selection which is always key, and they brought us a better vintage than what was on the menu, so we were off to a good start. I got the charcuterie, the short rib and the poached pear dessert. All were well integrated dishes. Wished for a bit more options, may be a special, but I appreciate that what they did have they made well and with great technique and attention to ingredients. I really don’t like it when we have to choose our sides, so often that feels like an afterthought, so in a town of steakhouses this place does a good job at presenting thoughtful dishes.

We hosted a dinner for our company in Monarch’s private dining room last night. We had 18 guests and all had a wonderful time. Nathan made the planning process so easy and was so accommodating to what our group wanted and needed. We’ve hosted several dinners throughout the years and had by far the best customer service from Monarch. The food was great and the service even better! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a special night out!

My husband and I went to the Monarch for my birthday and genuinely? This will be my pick for my birthday every year. The atmosphere was immaculate. The staff were all amazing! Everyone was kind and friendly! I ordered the duck and it was the best duck I ever had! 100/10 would absolutely recommend! Can’t wait to go again!!

Wow. I was pleasantly surprised with such a great experience at this restaurant. My husband and I went here with our friends for NYE dinner and it was a fixed holiday menu. Even though I would consider this dinner slightly overpriced, it was still a 5 star experience for me. The champagne was so smooth and amazing, the steak I had was cooked to perfection with the most incredible sauce and the rest of the dinner/dessert experience was amazing. My water glass was always full and the server left us alone enough to enjoy the night. I would definitely recommend trying Monarch out if you haven't before. Just know, this is a fancy dinner () not a casual night!
