Some pretty good happy hour deals, but the food needs way better quality control.

We visited around 4:30 on a Sunday. Stood awkwardly by the front door for a bit waiting for someone to notice our arrival (the entry is visually blocked by a wall.) The server was kind and accommodating, and the pizza prices during happy hour helped us choose this place for our first visit. I had heard good things about their Detroit style (my favorite) pizza.

Unfortunately all our food failed to deliver. The $11 Onion Ring sharable was titled something like “Gigantic Onion Rings” but was more of a side order of sadness. It was about 9 rings, mostly tiny. We actually laughed and counted the rings. One ring was filled with uncooked breading (pictured) that the server didn’t seem to care about when mentioned (“I’ll let the kitchen know.”)

The pizzas (again- great happy hour price) were a mix of great and borderline inedible. The outside crust and cheese crown was cooked perfectly with an airy bottom crust and crispy edge. However, the middle of both pizzas had a thin, soggy, rubbery, unrisen dough. There may have been a 3/4 inch difference in the crust thickness from the edge, to the middle (see pictures). I don’t know if it was a dough problem, overload of toppings, or a cooking issue, but I would be too ashamed to serve that at home if I baked it.

All in all, if we see future reviews that indicate they have fixed the issues, we may try the restaurant again. But had it not been for the happy hour pricing on pizza and $3 draft beer, this would probably be a two star review and our definitive final visit.

We utilized their private event room for a baby shower on a Saturday afternoon. It was the perfect spot! Eric, manager, customized the room setup for our needs and had everything ready to go ahead of schedule! Andy delivered the food hot and fresh and kept it replenished as needed. Pizza and wings were awesome as was the artichoke dip!! Shelby provided excellent drink service before, during and after our event. We recommend Backlot for your private event or for a fun night out!

Stopped in for lunch and had a great experience. Jennifer took care of us and was awesome the whole time, and Tyler jumped in and was just as steady. You can tell the team here really cares about quality service.

The Cadillac pizza was the best thing we tried, and even the gluten free version surprised us. The burger didn’t land for us, but everything else made up for it.

It can get a little loud since it connects to the movie theater, but if you sit farther inside it’s totally fine. Overall a great lunch and we’ll definitely be back!!

We have dined here multiple times, but the service and atmosphere has really gone down. Tonight we asked for happy hour drinks while we were seated for dinner, but were told by the manager we had to change tables and moving about 20ft to a different location so we could get the happy hour price…same restaurant, same waiter, same menu…why?! Then when I asked for the ribeye steak on the menu they were out….again. The food is always good though the menu is limited, so it is not the chef/kitchen….the waiters are nice, and the drinks are fine so it is not the bar. Clearly they need a change in management and attitude towards customer service, and when they do maybe people will give it better reviews.

Best place to go in west Omaha, Eric and Myroslava facilitate a great team. Great to eat before a movie and/or after movie drinks. brunch on Sundays has bottomless mimosas!

Spinach and artichoke dip was awesome. Cool little bar. Nice dining area. Hooked into the movie theater. I will have to go back and try the Detroit style pizza for $9 during happy hour 3 – 6. They said it’s the same in Aksarben village will have to call and verify.

Pizza was good, but Mac and cheese , we got a Kraft’s. I think, chicken strips also frozen, Kids were very very disappointed. being a local restaurant, we expect freshly made. I didn’t expect boxed version. I can goto a chain to get this kind of food than spending $$$$. Service was bad too. I am ok someone from restaurant contact me regarding some of these issues, Hope they fix it soon. Never going again.

Nice pizza Detroit style. Nice ambiance
I came back for another movie. And Pizza afterwards was really a great movie experience. However, our experience at the restaurant left a lot to be desired. That pizza came back with blackened crust, and the waitress tried to tell us that it was just caramelization on tasting it, it was horrible. I do hope they correct this gastronomic. Mistake in the future, as we really like going to the theater and restaurant afterwards

I would rate the overall experience closer to a 2.5. They can accommodate for gluten free and vegan requests which is a great addition and something that my wife and I need as celiacs. However, the pizza just simply didn’t come near our expectations. The Cadillac was delicious, but the Detroit Classic was very subpar. Additionally, the margarita I ordered was hands down the worst margarita I have ever had, and was still forced to pay for half of it because I took three sips instead of only one. We will almost certainly not be back.
