About Blue & Fly Asian Kitchen

While the platform category indicates "Chinese Restaurant," the provided information introduces Blue & Fly Asian Kitchen, an Asian restaurant located at 721 S 72nd St suite 111, Omaha, NE 68114, USA. You can reach them at (402) 504-6545 or +1 402-504-6545.

Blue & Fly Asian Kitchen is described by one enthusiastic local as a "hole in the wall sort of place, but in the best way." Tucked in a corner near Petsmart, the interior offers ample space, comfortable seating, and a clean, minimalist decor. Customers report being seated quickly and provided with menus and water promptly.

The service is consistently highlighted as "amazing," with staff described as very friendly, quick, and attentive, regularly checking in with customers. The restaurant appears to be a popular spot, with many tables filled during visits.

The food receives high praise in several reviews. The egg drop soup is noted for its incredible taste and lack of corn, topped with non-greasy, crunchy wonton crisps. Appetizers like the crab Rangoon, described as uniquely sweet and served with a dipping sauce, and the "very tasty," hot, and crunchy potstickers with plenty of filling, are also popular. Entrees such as the sesame chicken with broccoli and the hot and crispy chicken receive outstanding feedback. The sesame chicken is described as "INCREDIBLE" with a flavorful, perfectly sticky sauce and hot, crispy chicken, with generous portions for leftovers. The hot and crispy chicken also garnered high praise. Steamed white rice is reported to be perfectly cooked with a heaping serving.

While one review mentioned that the food, though well-seasoned, lacked diverse and standout flavors, and expressed disappointment with the hot and sour soup (due to an overpowering bamboo shoot smell and lack of sourness or spice) and the softer-than-expected texture of the pig intestines with chili oil, the overwhelming majority of feedback is highly positive.

Overall, Blue & Fly Asian Kitchen seems to be a fantastic local spot with delicious food and excellent service in a cozy environment. Highly recommended by local diners, it's suggested that if you haven't visited yet, you might be missing out. There is no specific promotional information available in the provided reviews, so it's recommended to contact the restaurant directly for any current offers.

The food was well-seasoned, but it also wasn't diverse in flavor. There was no kick in the flavor that made the dishes stood out. The string beans were delicious tho, very fragrant with the garlic. However, the hot and sour soup, was a bit disappointing since the smell of bamboo shoots in the soup overpowered all other flavors and the soup wasn't sour and had no spicy kick to it. The pig intestines with chili oil was interesting since I expected a crunchier texture for the intestines, but it was rather soft. Service was amazing because all the staff were very friendly, quick, and good with checking in on customers during the meal. The place was cozy and when I was there, almost all the tables were filled.

I was highly recommended here by a friend several times so… my partner and I finally went. To begin with, it’s very much a hole in the wall sort of place, but in the best way. It’s tucked in the corner by Petsmart, but when you get inside there’s plenty of elbow room. The chairs were nice and comfy, everything was clean. The decor is very minimalist but nice. We stood at the counter for all of maybe two minutes before we were quickly seated with menus, shortly followed by our water. The food was five stars right off the bat. We both started with egg drop soup and it was incredible. There’s no corn in it, for those of you who don’t prefer it. The bowl had just enough that you got a good portion, but not so much that you would be full immediately. With the wonton crisps on top there was a beautiful crunch - and they weren’t greasy. Then came the appetizers: crab Rangoon and potstickers. The crab Rangoon are different from any that I think I’ve ever had, in that they’re kind of sweet! They came with sauce for dipping, as did the potstickers. Those were very tasty as well, hot and crunchy with plenty of filling in all of the above. In perfect timing, out comes our entrees - sesame chicken with broccoli for me, and hot and crispy chicken for him; both of us got steamed white rice. Rice was pretty straight forward, perfectly cooked, and you get a heaping cup of it. My sesame chicken was INCREDIBLE. I really can’t recommend it high enough! The sauce was so flavorful, perfectly sticky; and then the chicken was hot, crispy, and I had plenty to take home for leftovers. He told me that his H&C chicken was also amazing, but I could’ve told you by the look on his face at the first bite! We chose to pass on dessert, but with our ticket came two little mango candies which were an excellent way to end. All of the staff was friendly yet speedy, but not once did I feel rushed. We both agree that we’re definitely coming back to try more because we were very impressed. Tl;dr Run, don’t walk, it’s fantastic - if you haven’t been yet, then you’re missing out!

Very mediocre. Dishes all taste the same. My roommate loves this place and I’m sorry I cannot understand why. Food is better in the restaurant than Togo, but it is nothing great. Chicken and beef is always rubbery. Shrimp tastes like it’s been in the freezer for ages. Rice is solid, thank goodness.

Very good authentic Chinese. Flavoring is good. The portions are a little small for the price. The chongqing chili chicken should be boneless, the bone-in makes it very difficult to eat. Also the dry pot lacks a little veggies and seasoning. Cumin lamb is very good and fish is good. Service is really good as well, very attentive servers.
