This was my wife and I first time to Misty's. Our waitress Milandra was awesome. She recommended a couple of dishes to us. The food was great. The atmosphere was nice and quiet. It was a little pricey but so worth it.
Misty’s in Havelock is my go-to spot whenever I have visiting clients. The food is consistently amazing, and the atmosphere beautifully exudes tradition. It’s the perfect place to showcase local flavor and hospitality!
So disappointing! I remember going to Misty’s in Havelock 30 years ago while attending UNL. It was the first time my parents met my boyfriend, now husband of 25 years. It was the best steak we’ve ever had and the experience was simply the best. Tonight we visited our son, a student at Nebraska Wesleyan, and took him to the Misty’s location downtown. We thought it would be a treat, but it was so underwhelming! Honestly it was terrible. I called to see if we needed a reservation and the hostess made seem like they were booked but if we rushed, he could get us in. When we arrived, we only saw 9 seated tables. The restaurant was only at about 30% occupancy. We were worried about the dress code because my son had shorts on, but honestly, he looked better than most of the patrons in the joint! The restaurant seemed old and dirty. The floors were stained, the bathrooms dark and dingy, and they had multiple temporary air-conditioners placed around the restaurant. Our waiter was nice but uneducated. When we asked about available spirits, he directed us to the menu and said he wasn’t sure because it was only his second day. The food was extremely subpar! My son’s 14 ounce ribeye was all fat. Wish I would have taken a picture. It looked uneatable! I ordered a French dip with onions and peppers for $2.00 more and couldn’t even see or taste a hint of them, the sandwich was soggy and disappointing. The manager did take my son’s steak off the bill, but never apologized or offered him an alternative. Sad, I thought it would be the Misty’s I remembered!
This is a really cool, elegant old school restaurant. The interior is dark, with the big half round booths with tufted leather. They also have table seating. They offer a wide variety of food from steak dinners, sandwiches and burgers, to salads and soups. I had the French Onion Soup and it was delicious! They also serve beer, wine and spirits Our waitress was amazing! I wish I would have got her name so I could have given her a shout out. She was so sweet and did a good job taking care of our table.
Iconic! The best place for prime rib and Nebraska sports vibes in the state. A must stop anytime of the year but especially on game day. Expect a wait. Great service, great food and an etched in time atmosphere. Perfect ambience - restaurant and bar are well situated to allow for fine dining and excellent camaraderie without disturbing either group.
