I don't say this lightly as someone who's dined at nice restaurants on either coast and some in the middle, like Chicago. Casa Bovina is one of the best restaurants I had had the opportunity to eat at. My fiancee and I went for an early Valentine's Day meal, and we ordered the 28 oz shared dinner. Our waitress was attentive; our meals came out quickly. The appetizer was the only slight letdown as it wasn't as good as we envisioned.The cheesecake dessert more than made up for it. The small dining room felt intimate. The decor was top-notch. And did I mention the food was ridiculously good?It's not cheap, but the food is worth far more than the cost. Simply a hidden gem in the Midwest.

Another great visit to casa Bovina! Ordered the off menu espresso martini which was wonderful. Delicious food all around! Will continue returning for great food and service.

Pretty incredible chefs tasting menu dinner with wine pairings left me feeling both elated and strapped for cash. Absolutely on the spender side of dinners around here - plus the drive from omaha. But I would say it WAS absolutely worth the experience. Service was multi-layered and very attentive, the entire (four hour, approximately) duration of this meal, and the building itself is incredible - and LEED certified. Winning on all levels. (Also don't forget to pick up some stuff from the market before you head out!)

Arguably the nicest restaurant in the state of Nebraska. My wife and I have travelled and ate a luxurious restaurants around the world and this stacks up with anything you'll find in New York, Chicago, LA, etc. What an incredible high end dining option for Lincoln and Nebraska.

A spectacular fine-dining experience. Our waiter was an amazing source of information as we walked through the menu, which is updated weekly. Each dish and drink has a unique background and story that he was eager to share. Dining is available by reservation only, and they fill up early, so plan in well in advance if you want to visit.My wife and I visited to celebrate both our birthdays, and they treated each of us to a glass of prosecco. Cheers!

It was my first time here and the main beef entrees was a big disappointment. Mainly because it was the emphasis of the restaurant. The bourbon ribeye and the steak flights had identical flavors. The only difference were how rare the steaks were cooked. Unless you spent your entire life eating steak, there was no way you could differentiate between the Nebraska Wagyu and the 45 days dry age. The cocktails on the other hands were great, they taste like juice but in a good way. The oysters were oyster. The grilled octopus appetizer were a bit on a salty side.The highlights of the dinner was the focaccia breads and the 1 free complimentary ravioli. It was quite an expensive tasting menu. The experience was worth for the price and not for the taste. As a designer, I really appreciate the design and decors of the restaurant. Especially, being a certified LEED building.

The good:- Great staff and very attentive - Good atmosphere - Delicious foodNeeds improvement:- Tasting menu only available if everyone on the table is participating. This seems more of a money grab that soured my experience on an otherwise outstanding night. I was really excited to try their tasting menu, but was so disappointed with the full participation caveat. So here's a Yelp tip....book two tables and split your party up if not everyone wants to do the tasting menu.

I have no reason to recommend this establishment,I am too much of a tight wad to pay those kinds of prices,now mind you I didn't say I couldn't pay those prices,but that I won't.I don't feel as though I need to dine with the rich to find my place in this world and I don't need to impress any of my friends.

Hear amazing things. I've seen several receipts over $500. I love the idea of eating $15 dollar rice and $12 dollar sides of vegetables. Don't even get me started on the $75 dollar steak with add on mushrooms and an amazing sauce at the cost of a car payment. This place is amazing! In the middle of a field across from a horse barn you can't ask for more. The owner has to be so proud of this establishment while so many go hungry.
