| - This store is very clean, neat, and obviously well maintained. The guy behind the counter was friendly and professional, but a little too eager about upselling. I know it's part of their job requirements, but when I say "That's All" I mean exactly that. I take it as an insult when my courteous refusal of any more products is met with the typical high pressure sales tactics. It turns me off immediately. I had a coupon for one of their packages for $49.00 because even if I was rich, I would NEVER pay the retail prices Omaha charges. There's no reason good enough to me, why anyone would pay several hundred dollars for a few steaks. I don't care if the cows they came from had diamond-studded utters, or gold lined a**holes, who in their right mind willingly pay that kind of money for a hunk of meat.
When I got home I cooked up one of the filets and one sirloin. The filet wasn't bad, but the sirloin had a weird texture that gave it a strange taste. First of all, if you're going to sell what is advertised as premium meats, go the full route and sell fresh, not frozen. I grew up with real butcher shops that always sold the best meat anywhere because it was always fresh. To be honest, I will continue buying my steaks at the grocery store because going toe-to-toe, it's better tasting beef for a tenth of the price. And the simple reason for the huge difference in taste and texture, is because it's not frozen - the minute you freeze meat of any kind, the fundmentals of that meat is changed to something it was never meant to be, I don't care what anyone says. I will not be returing to Omaha for anything in the future. I wanted to try them for a long time, I did, and was disappointed.
