    A warm and welcoming staff, an amazing story of community and togetherness, and some of the best food I've ever tasted... No More Empty Pots should be on every Omahan's "foodie" list. With event spaces available and beautiful views to be had, check this place out. We enjoyed spring salads with apples, feta, and candied pecans followed by spinach pasta and sundried tomatoes in a creamy garlic sauce. Yum!!

    Easily, easily, one of the best run & most impactful nonprofit organizations (and for that matter, I'd say of any organization) in Omaha and our region. Their mission of ending food deserts is extremely important & impactful.
