Don & Millie's
10727 W Center Rd, Omaha, NE
Crema's Take
“Don & Millie's is an Omaha institution that punches way above its weight as a casual drive-thru spot, earning devoted fans who swear their burgers rival national chains and their seasonal comfort foods (think silky potato soup and hearty chili) keep people coming back through the cooler months. The menu goes beyond typical fast-food fare with standout items like their smoked turkey wrap and creative specials such as the Frenchee, making it worth seeking out even if you're just passing through Nebraska. While service can be inconsistent, the warm, family-friendly vibe and genuinely craveable food have made this local chain a beloved neighborhood secret that locals are always eager to share.”

Went to order 2 meals in the drive thru, poor service. Nobody was at the drink/ collection window, had to pay at the 2nd window and gave us our food and told to have a good night with no drinks. #10 extra chicken and asked for 4 ranches, got home and there were zero ranches included, good thing I had ranch at home! Ordered a large #3 meal. Got home to a regular sized fry. This was March 1st, around 6:30-7pm. Literally sat in the drive thru for nearly 15-20 mins. It's too bad the Farnam location isn't open any longer, always great service there
Nice menu and selection of choices. I'm a big fan of their smoked turkey wrap. Also, the potato soup and chili are my favorites during the fall/winter months. Located just down the street from my family, I enjoy coming here when I'm in town. You may not wow anyone with their level of service or on site dining experience. But, it seems more upscale than other fast food for not much more money. Much better quality too.
Love Don and Millie's! Can't believe more Omahans don't know about it. Personally, I think this is the best burger you will get at any fast food restaurant, including In N Out, and I love theirs too. Their burgers are better than most restaurants with wait service. They also have taco salads, shakes, soups, chili dogs, etc. We're lucky to have these restaurants here. Met the owner years ago when I was in college, and he took the time to meet with me and give me advice. I was just a college kid, but he made the time to meet with me and advise me on meeting my goals. He's a great guy that wants others to succeed.
I ordered the double dons burger combo with a strawberry milkshake. I am an out-of-towner and this local Omaha chain was recommended by some coworkers. Burger was great- not sure what seasoning they use but it had me coming back bite for bite! Fries were awesome!- light golden crispy. They've got a sauce called dons sauce up on the front counter- the sauce is made for the fries. Theyre perfect together. Milkshake- was a little lacking on the strawberry flavoring but it was a good milkshake. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone, they also sell margaritas and taco related items if you're into that sort of thing! My meal was around 18 dollars but there was quite a bit of food, even an extra onion ring on the side of my burger. Loved the onion ring btw- very crunchy.
We were in the area and this local chain was listed on various sites as something to try. We went for lunch and Mrs. Flip Out asked the cashier what the Frenchee was. The lady said it was a deep fried grilled cheese so we got one to share. Little Flip Out had hot dog and Littlest Flip Out had mini corn dogs. They really enjoyed them. I had the foot long coney with chili and all the works. Mrs. Flip Out had a cheeseburger and enjoyed it. The cashier recommended the half and half order of onion rings and fries, and that was a great suggestion. It was a great stop for a local chain.
