The riverfront and downtown areas are two examples of this transformation, both having undergone a huge rejuvenation, prompting a growth in all aspects of life. The city is now proudly home to the Bob Kerrey Bridge, a one-of-a-kind pedestrian bridge that “S”-curves it's way across the Missouri River giving everyone who visits a beautiful view of the city’s skyline. Walk further through downtown and you’ll find yourself knee-deep in an eclectic mix of nightlife spots including indie-rock clubs, cinema art houses and trendy lounges. Grab a round for the whole table at Brazen Head Irish Pub before slipping into the Slowdown, an indie-rock club. Or maybe just catch a flick at the Film Stream, a movie theater dedicated to independent films.
When it comes to food, the city's agriculture plays a big role in the cuisine, thanks to the reputation of Nebraska bred cattle and the famous Omaha Steaks mail order company. Indulge in a steak at one of Warren Buffet's favorite restaurants, Gorat's Steakhouse. If you're looking for something slightly less of a splurge, Omaha has restaurants of all types of cuisines to satisfy your appetite. In the mood for Mexican? Crunch on a puffy shell taco at California Tacos. Want a slice of pie? Think Pudgy's Pizzeria. Got sushi on the brain? Make a stop at Hiro Sushi. The tastes are endless.
