Backlot Pizza + Kitchen

Some pretty good happy hour deals, but the food needs way better quality control. We visited around 4:30 on a Sunday. Stood awkwardly by the front door for a bit waiting for someone to notice our arrival (the entry is visually blocked by a wall.) The server was kind and accommodating, and the pizza prices during happy hour helped us choose this place for our first visit. I had heard good things about their Detroit style (my favorite) pizza. Unfortunately all our food failed to deliver. The $11 Onion Ring sharable was titled something like "Gigantic Onion Rings" but was more of a side order of sadness. It was about 9 rings, mostly tiny. We actually laughed and counted the rings. One ring was filled with uncooked breading (pictured) that the server didn't seem to care about when mentioned

We utilized their private event room for a baby shower on a Saturday afternoon. It was the perfect spot! Eric, manager, customized the room setup for our needs and had everything ready to go ahead of schedule! Andy delivered the food hot and fresh and kept it replenished as needed. Pizza and wings were awesome as was the artichoke dip!! Shelby provided excellent drink service before, during and after our event. We recommend Backlot for your private event or for a fun night out!

Stopped in for lunch and had a great experience. Jennifer took care of us and was awesome the whole time, and Tyler jumped in and was just as steady. You can tell the team here really cares about quality service. The Cadillac pizza was the best thing we tried, and even the gluten free version surprised us. The burger didn’t land for us, but everything else made up for it. It can get a little loud since it connects to the movie theater, but if you sit farther inside it’s totally fine. Overall a great lunch and we’ll definitely be back!!

We have dined here multiple times, but the service and atmosphere has really gone down. Tonight we asked for happy hour drinks while we were seated for dinner, but were told by the manager we had to change tables and moving about 20ft to a different location so we could get the happy hour price…same restaurant, same waiter, same menu…why?! Then when I asked for the ribeye steak on the menu they were out….again. The food is always good though the menu is limited, so it is not the chef/kitchen….the waiters are nice, and the drinks are fine so it is not the bar. Clearly they need a change in management and attitude towards customer service, and when they do maybe people will give it better reviews.

Best place to go in west Omaha, Eric and Myroslava facilitate a great team. Great to eat before a movie and/or after movie drinks. brunch on Sundays has bottomless mimosas!
