First I would like to thank Trip Advisor contributors for their raves about this restaurant, without which, I would not have experienced what in my opinion is arguably, the best Asian food I have ever tasted. I was totally overwhelmed by the chef's presentations. We dined there twice out of a four day visit. It would have been all four... More

We had a party of six and each person loved their food. The warm bread rolls are delicious. Food presentation is lovely. Save room for desert!

My grandma and I ventured to this place because of the reviews on trip advisor. We didn't know what to expect and we walked in and were surprised by the atmosphere. The decor was modern and elegant and the tables all had small fresh flowers on then with decorative plates and neatly folded napkins. The host and waiter were very... More

My wife and I visited this restaurant on April 9/13 based on Trip Advisor reviews. We were certainly not disappointed. It was a Tuesday so the restaurant was not overly busy when we arrived but diners kept arriving during our visit. The service was very good. The gentleman who served us was very helpful, well versed regarding the menu, and... More

Was not sure what to expect from a strip mall restaurant but this was a wonderful meal. James was very attentive and informed. Each course was full of flavor and well presented. Tempura flounder was light and perfectly cooked. Scallops cooked just right. Will return next time we are in Omaha.

I love this restaurant so much I'm willing to take a half-a-day vacation just to eat there. (I work downtown and Wave Bisto is pretty far West - can't be done in a hour.) The staff will bend over backwards to make sure you have an excellent dining experience. The decor is trendy-cool, but still has a nice relaxing vibe... More

Tucked away in the corner of a strip mall but the yummy food and great service more than makes up for the location. Try the cashew salmon--perfectly done, beautifully presented with tasty fried rice. The Asian rolls have an addictive flavor--I could eat a dozen of them! Very reasonably priced and the martinis are equally delicious.

Came to Wave Bistro while visiting family in Omaha. I had to press the recommendation because of the strip mall location, but the Wave's fabulous food and staff have made me the food guru of the family. James provided attentive service - nothing we asked for was refused. Our dinners, shared around the tabe, were Generous portions and all superb;... More

I took my family for a late lunch. We ordered a variety of food and shared. EVERY dish we ordered was the best we've ever had - anywhere. The crab rangoon, beef is hoison sauce and lemon almond cream shrimp were especially notable. The server was top notch, the owner came by twice to make sure everything was great. What... More

My wife and I found this place just after their opening a few years ago and we continually eat there two to three times a month. The food is as good as it gets.
