Omaha Steaks

Utterly disappointed. I received a box of these for Christmas and I was rather excited because I always seen the Omaha Steaks advertised in the magazines while traveling via airplane. I made the Beef tenderloin steaks and it was disgusting. They were tender, but the flavor was terrible. I could not stomach it and would not eat it. I ended up cutting them up and feeding them to my dog. I also made the potatoes Au Gratin and they were edible at best. They tasted just like a greasy hash brown from McDonalds. I would never recommend that anyone buy their product.

I have been a customer for years. I moved one year ago, and gave them my new address.
They shipped my order to the old address which is 750 miles away and will not do a thing to correct the situation and keep a good customer.
THANKS OMAHA STEAK

I wish Unilocal would allow a ZERO STAR RATING! We ordered steaks and country fried steak. The steaks I would give two stars, but the thing that really pisses us off is ever since our steaks arrived we have received 62 calls a week from Omaha steaks, never a message left. Guess what Omaha Steaks? NEVER EVER ORDERING FROM YOU AGAIN, YOU CAN TAKE YOU STEAKS AND ANNOYING PHONE CALLS AND SHOVE THEM WHERE THE SUN DON’T SHINE!

A friend gave us an Omaha Steak gift box for Christmas. Unfortunately the cool packs did not last before we received the package — which was now full of spoiled and rotten meat. I called customer service and they informed me that the buyer would have to call them to resolve it. Well my friend called Omaha Steaks and to resolve it he would have to pay more. I told my friend not to spend any more with this company, because the thought of his generosity was the true gift. This company does not stand behind their 100% promise.

I am appalled at these negative reviews. I have ordered from them on MULTIPLE occasions and every time my food is well kept during shipping and delicious when cooked.
I recently just ordered (with a coupon) 6 burgers, 4 chicken breasts, 4 jumbo franks, 4 sirloins, 4 cheesecakes, 4 berry tartlets, 4 chicken fried steaks, and 4 stuffed baked potatoes for just $ 80. Everything was shipped same day and came nice and frozen in their Styrofoam box with dry ice.
Everything has been more than on par and the service just the same. I found some reviews that were saying this company is horrid and to check BBB. I did and their rating is what I though it should be (A+).
Love this company and I will honestly say that anyone that hasn’t ordered from them before, do it. Do NOT listen to these negative reviews. They don’t really know what they are talking about. The problem that they are having is you have to COOK the food correctly.
Just because they, obviously, don’t know how to cook doesn’t mean the company is bad.

The worst steaks I ever had. You are better off just going to your nearest grocery store. The quality of the meat is questionable.

I am beyond disappointed with the shipment and horrible customer service I have recieved from OMAHA STEAKS and I will never ever use them again in the future.
I have given them every possible chance to resolve the miss shipment from the minute I realized they were late on shipping my son’s christmas gift to his new home he just bought at the young age of 25, til now and now they are telling me sorry. Sorry it looks like the shipment went to another address and omaha is not responsible for it, and they now want me to pay another $ 100 for replacement due to the error. They said I recieved a confirmation email as well and I did not, I even asked them to resend my email confirmation yet they wont.
I am not happy as you can only imagine. I would not recommend using these guys ever…
Why they have a policy such as this below shocks me –
«If you are not absolutely thrilled with your purchase from Omaha Steaks, for any reason at all, we’ll cheerfully replace your purchase or refund your money, whichever you prefer.»
Ps. I only gave it a 1 star rating cuz the system made me, otherwise it would had been a big fat ZERO!

Taste Fishy… I thought it was just me, but my entire family gave it a 0 rating due to the fish flavor. Received as a Christmas Gift. Easy to cook but not good.

Horrible cuts and indifferent customer service. AVOID!
A recent order had some of the toughest cuts I’d ever experienced. Wrecked two meals for two. Food was ‘off’ and tough as tires. Worst still was the mechanical and uncaring customer service. They easily agreed to a full refund — like they are used to it — but couldn’t grasp the point about the poor quality and its impact. Even had the nerve to give a canned close at the end about hearing from me gain in the future. My feeling on this is that they know it is poor quality (maybe at the holidays) and know they’ll give some refunds and lose some customers but really don’t care.

After years of admiring these things in airplane magazines, my favorite aunt bought me a big omaha steaks gift pack!!! WOO HOO (I thought)
My wife cooked the steaks first… I chewed her out a little because i thought she burnt the steaks or something. They were small, chewy, poor quality beef with no taste.
then I cooked the burgers… again…rubbery, chewy, tastless meat. Then the chicken breasts… rubbery, tasteless, chewy meat… again.
The kielbasa was ok, but no better than peperidge famrs or whatever you can buy at the grocery store. There were also lttle apple tart desserts in my box, and by far, these were the best things.
After seeing the ads in airplane magazines, for years and years and years, in my head I had build up the omaha steaks brand… thinking it would be the something out of this world… It wasn’t they sucked. The dream is shattered forever. If i had bought them, it would have been 1 star…

This review is for ordering by telephone from a flyer full of «deals.» I ordered two items which came to $ 64.99. Then they added $ 17,99 postage — whew — there went the savings. Don’t be suckered in by wonderful prices — they are really not that great when you add postage. They also advertise free shipping but that is only if you buy a really large order.
Their steaks are OK but beware of their advertising as they try to entice you to buy more than you want. The rep tried 3 times to upsell me on other «sale» packages. This is the last time I order from them in any way. I would have canceled this order as I just felt taken except that I wanted food in my freezer for my daughter who is coming to stay with me for a short time and I am housebound and unable to shop in the regular manner.

I’ve tried multiple things from Omaha Steaks, and some of their competitors. I go to high quality butchers and other purveyors in NYC, Philadelphia, and the tri-​state area. I think Omaha is worth giving a go, if you purchase sale items, and especially if you have a code for complimentary shipping/​further discount. For full price, I’d never do Omaha or any of their competitors (though take that with a grain of salt, as I’m blessed to live in a foodie capital of the world).
I’ve tried:
Meat Lover’s Lasagna — absolutely horrid/​It’s meat paste lasagna. Do not waste your money.
Beef Stroganoff — not bad. Rather do Ikea, make them myself, or purchase elsewhere. But truly not bad.
Ultimate Mac & Cheese Lasagna — intriguing. Perfect for inebriated gorging, or college folk
Cheddar Cheese Hash Browns — 5 stars! I’d guy them full price. SOOO good! Better than some of the traditional steakhouses I’ve been to throughout the country.
Chicken Fettucine Alfredo — perfectly fine. Much better than I thought it would be. Better than Stouffer’s…though better to get made fresh.
Chicken Fried Steaks — 4 stars. So good! Ordered once, then got a double order for my second shipment. Wish they sold a country gravy to go with them, though.
All-​Beef Meatballs — decent. heat up very easily, and awesome to add into dishes, or as a snack.
Chateaubriand (10 oz) — really worth it when purchased for 50% off the standard price. Very good quality. Great flavor on its own, and perfectly married with my spice rub. When you think of how much you’d pay in a steakhouse, a deal when on such deep discount. Cooked up and roasted perfectly.
If you get a deal, and take the time to hunt through the site, you can find some good eats!

A friend sent a Christmas gift from Omaha Steaks, and I can’t say enough about what a kind gift it was. But this isn’t a review about my friend, but of the food.
I can’t remember having a worst steak. I’m sure I have, but no worse one comes to mind. It was completely tasteless, awful texture, same with the burgers. I actually couldn’t finish eating either. I still have the stuffed fish in the freezer, but am not looking forward to eating it as the list of ingredients is way too long for just fish. I like fresh-​frozen food without so many additives. Gave away the franks, pork, and potatoes so can’t speak to those. Gave them away because what I tried was so bad I wasn’t in the mood to continue, and who knows what’s in the franks. I get fresh ones from my local butcher. The lowest cut of meat at my local grocer is far better than this over-​priced meat.
Love my friend for wanting to give me a great, thoughtful gift. Hated the food.

One word… DON’T. My aunt has been giving me Omaha Steaks for Christmas for several years in a row, and the quality just keeps getting worse and worse. I’m going to have to muster up the courage to tell her not to order them again.
This year she sent me 8 filet mignon. I could buy better steaks pre-​packaged at Safeway! The filet are totally marbled — full of fat and gristle. By the time I trimmed them down to the lean meat that is supposed to make up a filet mignon, I had about an ounce of meat left per steak. Total waste of time and money.

We ordered riveted for Christmas dinner. I am so disappointed in what we got. They are little, thin cuts that there is no way to grill properly. I would never order from them again. Their advertising is so misleading — showing nice, thick steaks, cooked medium rare!

For Christ’s sake, I got this garbage again for Christmas. I truly believe with every inch of my heart that anyone who rates this «food» more than one star must have been starved for months before receiving this in the mail.
See my last review as I won’t go into as much detail but basically: Tiny portions (75% of advertised weight, mostly water), terrible taste/​texture, insane price.
This is no exaggeration, I am putting it all through a meat grinder and giving it to my cats.

I was lied to by Omaha Steaks. I had bought 3 cases this week and got an e mail for free shipping on my next order. They did not honor the e mail. Be care with this company as they will try to deceive you.

If you notice, not one mention of USDA Choice or Prime grade. If it don’t say USDA, then it probably ain’t.

I’ve heard a lot about Omaha Steaks over the years, and mostly bad things. However, when I saw a coupon advertising over $ 200.00 worth of food for $ 40.00, well I had to at least check it out.
The coupon was for: 2 filet mignons, 2 ribeyes, 2 pork loins, 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, 4 burger patties, 4 apple tartletts, 4 potatoes au gratin, a package of 15 meatballs, and a total of 8 kielbasa sausages. Also in the shipment was a packet of their own seasoning.
So far the filets, apple tartletts, and sausage has been tried, and so far everything is great. The portion sizes do look fairly small, but in reality they are just the perfect size.
I’m not sure I would order from the on a regular basis if not for that coupon. In the end I’m very happy with everything, so far.

What a tasteless rip off. Midget steaks, minny burgers, terrible fries.
Our in laws bought this for us as a gift, so we didn’t totally lose. But do yourself a favor and just go to your local grocery store before ordering this joke.
