Good food, good mood

Agreeing on something and getting unanimous approval is not something easy. However, if there’s one thing that everyone can agree on, it's that food is great and is loved by almost everyone. While food is great, some in a not-so-large city like Lincoln may wonder where can a person find good food that can be enjoyed together with friends or alone? Below are some places that you can check out:

East, South, and Southeast Asian cuisine

If you’re a person who has a thing for Asian cuisine, then places such as Imperial Kitchen, Blessings Thai, Pho Factory, Bánhwich Café, The Oven, and more are your best bet. Each of these restaurants offer a different kind of taste and also experience. If you like Chinese food then Imperial Kitchen would be your go-to place. Like Vietnamese food like pho? Try out the Pho Factory. Tasty sandwiches? The Banhwich cafe is a great place for that. If you like Thai food and spice? Then Blessings Thai would be your best choice. Blessings Thai is also known among some students as the place where you can test your friends' spice tolerance — a small and fun little challenge among friends.

Mediterranean cuisine

Places like Ali Baba’s Gyros and Sultan’s Kite are great places to enjoy food items such as gyros, kebab or even a simple, yet unique and delicious salad. All three are foods that are highly recommended by customers of both old and new. Both locations are quite popular among the community and have received numerous five star reviews from customers. That alone can reveal the quality these two locations have.

Contemporary American cuisine

While there are many people who are adventurous when it comes to food, there are also many that prefer something that they are more familiar with or grew up eating. Some contemporary restaurants within the city are The Green Gâteau, Honest Abe’s and Carmela's Bistro. Each of these restaurants offer something different from sweets to savory foods. I encourage you to check them out.

While there are more restaurants in Lincoln that were not mentioned in the list, the places that are listed can be used as a guide for new people who are interested in trying out something new. It can also be used to find places with comfort foods that are more familiar to people with different cultural backgrounds.
