The Stuffed Olive

Modern ambiance in the Capitoldistrict downtown. The martini list is impressive and has a bit of everything whether you are looking for something classic, sweet or unique.Service was a bit inconsistent. We were initially told to move as we were apparently sitting in a closed section (that was not marked) and after sitting for over 10 minutes in a different area we had to order at the bar (even though staff was taking orders table side). After this initial hiccup our server was apologetic and attentive. The drinks were well executed and we enjoyed the olive sampler as well. It's a fun concept and nice place for a cocktail or two.

Overall I'll try this place again - cocktails were okay, not super strong but they were tasty. My favorite was crab Rangoon pizza, this was hot, fresh and hit the spot. Service was pretty spotty, our server was new but she wasn't attentive - we didn't have a plate for one person the whole time, we wanted to order more drinks but she never came by again before we lost interest and decided to just pay and move on. It was loud but not too loud to chat which was nice. Plenty of unreserved seating on a Saturday evening. Overall, was decent but sit at the bar in hopes of better service.

Excellent service and the best martini's. Service was fast and entertaining.They have a ton of different flavors Inside is very nice and super clean. Bartender is the coolest

This is a cute little martini bar in the Capitol District. They have traditional martini styles, dessert styles, and some specialty martinis they offer, so there is something for just about everyone (if you're a martini fan).There is an outdoor patio into the "center" of the Capitol District, but the real wow factor is inside. It is just like a fancy martini bar in the movies, with black tufted leather booths, a mirrored and extremely white/lit up bar, and some classy martini art around on the walls. If you're going to visit the Stuffed Olive, I think enjoying the interior is the way to go vs. the patio that is the same for all Capitol District bars (that open out into the courtyard).My favorite was the Bloody Mary (on the Specialty menu), the Almost Better Than Sex and the Tiramisu (both on the Dessert menu). The Blood Mary tastes just like a Bloody Mary (but a lot fancier) and the Almost Better Than Sex was super sweet and delicious with chocolate, amaretto, and Irish creme, definitely living up to the Dessert name. If you're a fan of tiramisu, the dessert, GET the tiramisu martini - it tastes the exact same.Now aside from martinis, they also offer a small appetizer menu, including a lot of different kinds of stuffed olives. You can get them as a skewer of different olives, or get the Sampler Platter which is two of each of the ten different options (this is what I did). These were the stuffed olives I had (and in the order of which I enjoyed them):-Pimento: I am a huge pimento fan so this was a treat for me.-Pepperjack: I love pepper jack cheese, so this one was great, with a little bit of heat that played off the oily olive flavor.-Cream Cheese: I loved the creaminess of this one, making it a lot more easy to eat a lot of these.-Prosciutto and Provolone: This one was delicious and a lot more filling (with the meaty part).-Mozzarella: Same as the Cream Cheese in the ease of eating, but you have to be a mozzarella lover.-Parmesan: This is the same as the mozzarella where it's easy to eat but you have to be ok with the pungency of parmesan.-Feta: I love feta in Greek food but it was kind of lost to the olive flavor in this mix.-Garlic: I'm a garlic fan (my husband can't stand how much I love garlic in the dishes we make at home), but this was too much garlic even for me.-Jalapeño: This wasn't bad per se, but I'm not someone for whom jalapeño is a flavor to assign to something and not hide in a salsa etc.They also have some heavier things on the appetizer menu like flatbreads, crab rangoon, charcuterie, dips, etc - but if you're going to The Stuffed Olive, you should definitely try the olives at least.So if you're in the mood for a good martini, some fancy olives, or a fun spot for a night out with friends, The Stuffed Olive might be up your alley!

The Stuffed Olive is a fun little spot in Capitol District for drinks and fun. They have great spots for any occasion, whether sitting at the bar or a small table with a date, or at one of the large couch areas with a big group. The menu is great and extensive as far as drinks go, with over 100 martinis. They have a good variety of traditional martinis, as well as other drinks like margaritas or old fashions served as martinis if a normal martini isn't usually your thing. With the nice tables and decor, it feels like a nicer place to go out, though you wouldn't feel out of place dressed casually. If you're going to a show across the street or have an event at a nearby venue, this is a great spot to grab a drink and a bite beforehand. They have some great little bites that could be appetizers to share or a meal for yourself. The flatbreads are delicious, and they have a great giant charcuterie board with a nice spread that's perfect for a big group. The service can be hit or miss, with table service sometimes being quick, though other times it has taken a while to get a drink and have sat at a table with an empty drink for a while.

Every time I've been to The Stuffed Olive it has always been a great experience. I love the multitude of martini options, the food is delicious and perfect for the theme, and the service is always top tier. Everyone is helpful, friendly, and a joy to interact with. The Dirty and Funky Martinis are a favorite and I love that you can pick which stuffed olives to pair it with. Get the sampler plate of olives, it's worth trying all of them. Our server last night was Bud and he did an outstanding job. 10/10 recommend and it's such a fun staple for downtown Omaha.

This place was cool! There was so many amazing drinks to choose from, it's hard to choose only a couple. I love the huge selection and the bartenders made sure to give suggestions. The presentation is the perfect touch. It's a great place to grab drinks before an event downtown. I can't wait to come back!

I definitely feel a little conflicted writing this review. It's been on my list since before it opened but I don't find myself downtown a ton. I think it's safe to say it's not what I expected. I was picturing an upscale martini bar with all the drinks and chandelier flare. What I got felt cheap and like a novelty. It was very much quantity over quality. I think my biggest disappointment was the ingredients on the menu. I noticed right away that the vodkas of choice were like Deep Eddys, Dr McGillicuddy and very schnapps heavy. There were no fresh creative garnishes, homemade simple syrups... just an abundance of cocktails with premade mixes. This is no Maven Social with clear ice details and carefully curated elegance. With that being said, now that I understand the vibe and what it really is like, it is a fun lounge. Just not a quality balanced cocktail bar and that's okay. I ordered a Berry Martini that tasted like nostalgic koolaid and it was good. Again not balanced but also good for what is was, vodka, schnapps, and cranberry juice. I think it's worth checking out and trying the menu. For this I wish they offered flights. And maybe you'll be like the guy next to me who was dragging his finger through the caramel of his empty glass and licking it off his finger

We visited the Stuffed Olive for a second time last night. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of people there on a Wednesday. That being said, service was quite slow. We waited about 10 minutes for our server to greet us at our table despite there being three people behind the bar talking. The variety of martinis can't be beat. I tried one of the Valentine's Day special martinis that was raspberry and chocolate flavored, and it tasted like a dessert! We also ordered the order of four crab rangoons. This is the third appetizer we have tried here, and I have concluded that the portion sizes are laughably small. Each "rangoon" was basically 1/4th of what a regular rangoon would be. They were good, but boy were they tiny!

Very cute place with good vibes and staff that was very friendly and knowledgeable. With so many choices .. you better have a driver... lol Great place -
