Modern Love

My third visit and my second carryout order. I cannot say enough positive things about the food and service. We preordered a Thanksgiving Feast and we were not disappointed with the quality. Just one word of warning. Be careful with the amount you eat. I'm discovering vegan food is unexpectedly heavy. What would seem normal portions are actually more than enough. I recommend you eat 1/2 of what you receive and save the rest for the next day. This restaurant is a worthwhile family outing, or an intimate couple rendezvous.

Jaw-droppingly delicious. Absolutely lives up to the reputation, even WOWing the skeptical meat eaters. There is excellent variety in the menu so there's something to appeal to everyone and every mood. Gorgeous decor with a really lovely atmosphere. A teensy bit on the pricier side BUT portions are extremely generous and so, so tasty. Highly recommend and is definitely my favorite restaurant in Omaha.

After over five days of searching through online restaurant recommendations, I was fortunate enough to stumble across Modern Love. I walked the 45 minutes from my hotel and eagerly joined the small gathering of brunch goers waiting for the restaurant to open. What I liked: - My first impressions of the venue were very good. Though from the outside it appeared to be small, Modern Love was spacious inside with many seating options from chairs to booths - The waitress came and offered me a menu right away - The meal was phenomenal and pure perfection! It was only salad, and yet, it seemed like so much more. Never have I had anything like it and I doubt I will again. The salad was huge to the point that I was a bit overwhelmed when I first saw it. The lettuce was crisp, the croutons were very flavourful, the tofu was moist, the dressing was creamy and slightly tangy. The other toppings complemented the salad perfectly -The waitress was new, but showed great initiative by offering to ask for clarification from her colleague when she was uncertain of an answer - Prices were very reasonable - Washroom was clean - Parking available out front What could be improved: - It took quite awhile for my food to be served. At least 30 minutes, not including the 10 minutes leading up to my order being taken. I was in no hurry so it wasn’t a problem for me but I can imagine that if I was on a fixed 1 hour lunch break, this would have been concerning - At no point did anyone asked me if I had enjoyed my meal, which was really unfortunate because I absolutely loved my meal - I was still holding my fork and had probably just swallowed my last bite when the waitress came over and asked if I wanted the bill. Asking if I wanted dessert, which I did, was an afterthought for her. I am not certain if this is how things are done in Omaha though, as this was the second time this happened in the past week. - There was a dueling music battle going on in the restaurant and it was unpleasant. First there was the restaurant's main speakers and then there was the blaring music from the kitchen. At one point the main speakers were turned off and all I could hear was the kitchen music - I probably would have ordered soup, but it wasn’t ready. Seeing as how the restaurant opened at 11:30am, they should have started setting up earlier so that it would be part way ready to go by opening - Not all dessert options are listed on the menu My meal at Modern Love was by far the best meal I had while visiting Omaha, and I can imagine that if I lived in Omaha I would become a regular.

My family and I stopped in on short notice for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised since vegan cuisine is not our regular go-to for meals. We enjoyed the cauliflower, the "burger", and "chicken" sandwich immensely. The vibe of the restaurant was perfect for our evening out too. We were able to enjoy each other's company in a relaxed environment while enjoy our meals. A friend who joined us who is vegan thoroughly enjoyed her meal as well saying it was top notch!

Incredible vegan culinary experience! Such a great hand crafted vegan menu!! Super friendly staff, and great atmosphere to enjoy healthy and delicious vegan fair. Because everything is whole foods and not just substitutes, it does take a bit to get your food, but it is worth the wait. We look forward to coming back and trying more!
