Omaha is known for its beef, and we have the steakhouses to prove it. Most College World Series visitors make it their goal to make at least one Omaha steakhouse visit and enjoy the rich, delicious flavors Omaha’s beef has to offer. If you’re wondering which one to choose, here are some of our picks for the best steakhouses in Omaha!
Omaha Steakhouses Near Charles Schwab Field
The Committee Chophouse
While the menu at many Omaha steakhouses is relatively similar, The Committee Chophouse adds a modern take on the steakhouse. In addition to classic cuts, you can also order a Delmonico, Chateaubriand, Beef Wellington, and even a 35-ounce Tomahawk Ribeye. Located on the lower level of the historic Cottonwood Hotel—one of the best places to stay in Omaha—this brightly lit steakhouse also serves a wide selection of seafood, pork, lamb, and chicken.

Spencer’s For Steaks & Chops
Spencer’s For Steaks & Chops combines the dim lighting and old-school feel of a classic steakhouse with a seasonal menu that also offers interesting options. If all you’re looking for is a classic Filet Mignon, New York Strip, or signature Spencer Steak, head chef Glenn Wheeler’s team will cook it to perfection. But if you want Lamb Rack, Prime Beef Meatloaf, or Certified Angus Beef Roasted Prime Rib, Spencer’s can serve you those, too.

The Boiler Room
Though not specifically a steakhouse, The Boiler Room is one of Omaha’s best restaurants—and its ever-changing menu always features two or three steak options. With cuts sourced from the beloved Morgan Ranch, The Boiler Room is home to some of the best steaks in Omaha. Best of all, thanks to the open kitchen and second-floor seating, you can look down into the kitchen and watch your steak be cooked!

Dynamite Woodfire Grill
Contemporary elegance meets wood-fired cooking in this gorgeous downtown Omaha restaurant. Located inside the The Farnam Hotel, Dynamite Woodfire Grill is set apart by the wood-burning ovens at the center of the open kitchen—adding a pleasant smokiness to many dishes and allowing diners to see their food being prepared. From the 8-ounce Filet Mignon to the 38-ounce Tomahawk, there are steaks of every size, plus an extensive wine selection to match. And their Reuben Croquettes are one of the most unique and delicious appetizers in Omaha!

More Must-Try Omaha Steakhouses
The Drover
One of Omaha’s most famous steakhouses and a favorite among College World Series travelers, The Drover combines great meat with a dark, relaxed interior that reminds one of a 1920s speakeasy. While The Drover is most known for its whiskey-marinated steaks, you’ll find a whole roster of cuts here, from filets and T-bones to prime rib, all cooked to your preferred temperature.

Round the Bend Steakhouse
If you’re up for driving outside of Omaha, Round the Bend Steakhouse in nearby Ashland is well worth the trip. This restaurant is renowned for its steak, especially the 28-ounce Ritz Sirloin. But it’s best known for is its Rocky Mountain Oysters—fried bull testicles—that people travel miles to try. The restaurant’s annual Testicle Festival—which features live music and food specials—lands on June 14 this year, right in the middle of the College World Series, making it a fun and offbeat way to spend a rest day.
Ruhlman’s Steakhouse
Another Ashland destination, Ruhlman’s Steakhouse is a great option if some members of your College World Series traveling crew don’t want steak. To be clear, there are fantastic steak options here, especially the Chef’s Selection Dry Aged Connealy Angus Beef. But the menu also includes delicious house-made pastas, chicken, seafood, and sandwiches, so there’s something for everyone.
Legacy Chophouse
One of the newer steakhouses in Omaha, Legacy Chophouse combines elegance with well-cooked meat. All steaks are marinated in whiskey and soy sauce and topped with garlic salt, ensuring they’re tender and adding a smoky flavor on top of their inherent beefy flavor. The Filet and Ribeye in particular are favorites here. Want more great eats and helpful tips for your time in Omaha during the College World Series?
