    We just discovered this gem while visiting Lincoln last week. The food was extremely fresh and delicious. We had the tomato soup, salads and flatbread. All were fabulous. My husband must eat hardcore gluten-free, and he was able to enjoy the cauliflower crust flatbread, as well as the salad and soup. This restaurant is conveniently in walking distance from the Residence Inn hotel. The prices are good, and the service is exceptional. This restaurant will now be a regular stop whenever we are in town.

    Recently dined at a nearby favorite Art & Soul. Started with the Greek Nachos, highly recommend! The roasted peppers, pickled onions, artichokes, all are incredibly tasty. Topped with amazing hummus, olive tapenade, balsamic, each delicious in their own right. Rounded out with cukes, pepperoncini, tomatoes, feta. So Freaking Good! My husband saw the Meatloaf on their specials menu and got super excited. Had a moment when told they were out . Instead he went with the Bahn Mac. Beef, bbq, pickled veggies, and Sriracha. He loved it, said he'd totally get it again. It was the most complimentary he's ever been about mac & cheese . Was also impressed with the Tomato Basil Feta Soup and Yummy Cappuccino . I ordered a 1/2 sandwich, the Cheese Toastie, which I've had before. It's supposed to have 3 kinds of cheese and a garlic aioli. Unfortunately the filling was almost nonexistent. At 9 bucks I'm really hoping it was just a fluke. Super bummed . Conversely, the 1/2 Pear Pecan Salad (minus bacon) I also had was overflowing with toppings! Pears, cranberries, pecans, chunks of boursin, and a maple mustard dressing. 10 outta 10! Lastly I enjoyed an Aloha Margarita. Layers of flavors, citrus and coconut. It was great! This place is a little on the pricey side but seems to prioritize quality ingredients. Service was attentive and collaborative. They also have a Grab & Go Cooler filled with soups, dips, desserts, bread, etc. If so inclined they offer various cooking classes, evenings with live music, and other events. It's a good page to follow for updates!

    Went for an early lunch to celebrate a birthday. Sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the beautiful day. Art & Soul has great service, even on the patio. Sometime restaurants tend to favor the inside, here the service was just as good outside. Had a light lunch and a bottle of white wine. The wine was brought with a cooler to keep it the proper temperature which was an added service. So in short, food is delicious, service is spot on and the wine list is great! Also important to note, they do offer half portions for those looking to a light lunch. Inside can get a bit loud when very full.

    The Nebraska Passport brought my husband and myself to Art & Soul. Oh my, what a treasure! We each had an absolutely delicious meal, and shared a refreshing lemonaide flight. The food was so fresh and the flavors melded together perfectly! Anxious to come back!

    The menu was great with a variety of different delicious dishes. The beef drip was phenomenal and perfect for a quick meal. The beer and drinks section has lots of options and we’re all very good. Our bartender, Lily, was upbeat, very helpful and always carried a smile with her. Would definitely recommend Art and Soul!

    I really don’t like writing but I’m visiting Lincoln, NE and I have happy tears and want to make sure you all get the opportunity to try this restaurant! Art & Soul is one of my FAVORITE places I’ve ever eaten!!! Unique food, healthy and fresh, decor was clean and modern, but warm and inviting at the same time. It’s family owned - in fact the whole family works there and still enjoys each other’s company outside of work . They design the decor, menu’s, and strategies as a family and they have definitely succeeded! To top off all the delicious food, my server and everyone who worked there had enthusiasm, smiles, personable, and genuine! In fact, another customer near me just stood up to leave, shook his server’s hand and said “Excellent service sir!” For the food….. This French toast is the best and most unique I’ve ever had! It’s covered in corn flakes with a cream cheese, strawberry, jalapeño filling! A little sweetness with a little heat - beautifully balanced flavors, unique, and it’s so perfect! I also got the Benedict Hammy. Excellent! I’ve been searching for the perfect holladaise sauce for 13 years and I finally found it! The sauce actually has flavor- it has just the right amount of lemon in it but not too much! Also, the consistency wasn’t too thin or too thick - it was perfect! The candied ham added the perfect amount of flavor but didn’t overpower. The egg was cooked perfectly as well - not too runny and not overcooked! The pita gravy nachos!!!! So unique and delicious! The gravy was loaded with flavor - but didn’t taste like I was eating straight up sausage. Wow! The latte was delicious! I got the Snickerdoodle Butternut Latte and it was perfect! It didn’t taste burnt or watered down. The Herbal Infused lemonade was amazing! (Mint, thyme, rosemary, dill, and lavender) I could actually taste the herbs! Also, a lot of time lemonade tastes water down or too sweet - not this one! Perfect in every way! I would say this place is perfection! Thank you for this unforgettable experience Art & Soul! I’ll be back!!!!! Please note, these pictures don’t do justice
