We will no longer be offering dine in until further notice. Please wear a mask when entering the restaurant and keep it on. No need to pull it down when ordering! We offer phone in, walk in, curbside and on line ordering. Thanks for the support. Covid sucks.

Friends! Due to the recent craziness with covid, we'll be strictly enforcing masks while inside Block 16 for the next few weeks. Please no weird political/angry/argumentative posts about this, just wanting to stay safe. Thanks for the continued love and support Omaha!!!

Dear A******** C*****, you were literally our last customer, you used your own credit card, have a social media profile and you stole our foh tips RIGHT ON CAMERA. Send us a message on here so you can return the $$$. We'll even give you 20 bucks for being the worst thief ever.

Just a friendly reminder that Google reviews are not only great for complaining but it's an excellent way to get your inner bigot and all of your hate speech out. If sharing this review upsets anyone, unfollow us. This has to stop. The internet is getting dangerous guys.

So the money has been returned in full. When this first happened, we were livid. Our initial thought was to post this person's photo and let the internet do its thing. At the end, we're so glad we didn't. (We still had our fun) this was a nice reminder for us that

It's no secret that chef
@altonbrown
is coming to town today. It's no secret that he changed B16s lives forever, he's incredibly busy and doesn't need 50,000 people bothering him. But does anyone else think he needs to try a poutine burrito?

Sure fire sign of a Karen? Threatening a restaurant and it's employee with your "team of lawyers" for not allowing you to dine in 30 minutes after close. Wtf!

On November 1st, 2010, Jess and Paul opened what is now Block 16. They looked into eachothers eyes for an uncomfortable amount of time. Then, in unison they said "man, if Creighton ever makes it to the elite 8, let's serve a pork schnitzel the size of our heads."

Learned a very important lesson today. If you disagree with a restaurants mask policy, the BEST thing to do is take the complimentary mask, roll it into a ball, throw an expletive, racist laden temper tantrum, throw the mask at our foh employee and storm out.

Our friends at Muchachos are having a hard time swallowing the abysmal Red Sox season as the sit at the bottom of the AL east. Being the good friends that we are, we put our heads together on a way to cheer them up. A giant New York Yankee sandwich! It's called the Yankchacho.

Hey all! PSA. We've been getting lotsa messages asking how crazy it is here with CWS, if it's worth coming down. We are busy but not much worse than usual. Plus none of the staff are allowed water, restroom breaks, talking, smiling or eating so we're keeping up just fine.

Due to a recent two star Google review, we will be closed tomorrow. Although none of us are allowed to enjoy labor day as punishment, we hope you all do. Stay safe and come see us Tuesday!!! (We're gonna run 2 specials to make it up to you)

People per day, many of whom have forgotten that covid aside, walking into a restaurant, coughing into your hand, wiping your nose then handing another human cash is fucking gross. Its a few weeks. There are so many great places to eat in omaha that don't require masks. Go there

Omfg. You guys are right. We are no scientists, we have no clue if masks work. What we are is a business trying to protect our staff mentally and physically and if they tell us they're more comfortable with everyone in masks then that's what we're gonna do. They serve around 600

Quality food and service has always been our main goal here. But, at Block 16, we also care about your rights, safety and freedom. We'll put one of these in the lobby, if you need to get rid of any cannabis, we'll "destroy" it free of charge.

The page has a little more detail. I’m not at all happy about writing this, but I’m not ready to put omaha to bed quite yet. So if you’re compelled to help, here’s the link.

When a James Beard nominated chef like Jen Coco offers to help out your restaurant for a bit, you hi five everyone in the room, do the splits if you can, pirouette and then say yes please. Then, you watch and learn. And when she says "you ever heard of a truckstop burger?"
