User Rating: 1 out of 5 starsI would use profanity to describe my first encounter with this place, but instead, I will tell you that thanks to their poor service, we had a great dinner at the Passport restaurant across the street.
The second time, I went there we had decent food, but the atmosphere was so crowded and noisy that we didn't really talk much, as we were with friends from DC that I get to see 1-2 times per year, that was not acceptable.
The third time was with a corporate function for my wife's company. Food OK, drinks OK. Were it not for the party room and having access to our own wait staff and a pre-arranged menu, I am sure that we would have had the same cruddy service the Upstream is renown for.
Add to the cruddy service, their uninspired "craft beers", and you get a great place for young 20 somethings to act pretentious, but there are a lot of better places for dinner near by.
User Rating: 4 out of 5 starsThe bar is great. It is definitely one of Downtown Omaha's places to go for a cocktail. The beer selection, brewed in house, offers a great variety of brews on tap for your enjoyment. The food has always been good. I've become a fan of the Sunday bruch. It's served up buffet style but kept fresh. In addtition to the spread, there's a cook whipping up custom omelets. The biscuits and gravy are incredible... especially after a long night of drinking draft beer!!
User Rating: 1 out of 5 starsOMG this place was recommended by hotel staff as a good middle of the road place diverse menu decent prices.
The service was Horrible. I ordered a steak medium well; it was still bleeding when it arrived so I asked the waiter to return it as it was still too pink and hello bleeding. He inquires if I cut it in the middle as if I only paid for the middle of the steak, WTF. I was so offended as if I don't know what medium well is and I didn't like it so who gave him the right to question my taste.
On top of that he never bothered to give me any ketchup for my fries or steak sauce and it was like pulling teeth to have our drinks refilled.
Food was barely decent, atmosphere loud, and staff very rude.Comments (1)

It wasn't right for the server to say that. But did you even ask for ketchup? How was he to know that you wanted that if you didn't ask? Atmosphere is ALWAYS loud in a bar/restaurant like that.

Why would you go back a 3rd time if you didn't like the place? It is half a restaurant and the other half is for a good time. A lot of people recommend Upstream so there are a lot of people that go there. So of course it is going to be noisy & crowded.
