The Green Gateau is an upper-scale neighborhood restaurant that has been in operation for over 25 years in the heart of downtown Lincoln. We have combined a European atmosphere with American contemporary cuisine to create a casual, yet refined feeling with delicious flavors.

Owners Eric and Cristi are proud to serve their award winning desserts, fresh seafood, and Nebraska Wagyu beef. This is just a fraction of the comprehensive menu that is sure to satisfy. We are also proud to source local and organic produce, dairy, meat, and wine.

The Green Gateau is a consistent winner of Lincoln's Choice 'Best Brunch', and offers brunch from 8-3 on both Saturday and Sunday.

The Green Gateau boasts one of the most comprehensive wine selections in Nebraska, and is annually voted a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence winner.

    I cannot say enough about the exceptional food and service at The Green Gateau. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for a perfect evening. The menu is beautifully curated, offering a wide range of dishes that cater to all tastes. I ordered the seafood fettuccine, which came highly recommended, and it was fresh and flavorful. However, a few of the mussels were a bit hard to open. I casually mentioned this to our server, and he went above and beyond to ensure my dining experience was flawless. Without hesitation, he had the chef prepare me an entirely new order of mussels, which was absolutely perfect! This level of attentiveness and care is rare to find. Every dish my family had was outstanding, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The ambiance was elegant yet welcoming, making it the perfect spot for any occasion. I am beyond impressed with the team’s dedication to customer satisfaction and the quality of their food. This place has earned a lifelong customer, and I will be recommending it to everyone I know. Thank you for an unforgettable evening!

    Food, drink and service was all great at our brunch. The only downside was all the food was lukewarm when it got to us. They were really busy that morning so maybe they were down a few servers and it was sitting for a bit. Would not stop me from going back though- all tasted great.

    Really nice place with good food and service. My only issue is the seating. It’s very tight. Our table was pretty wedged next to a wall. A bit too cozy.

    Their beignets are so delicious! I always enjoy their quiche and soups. My husband said his brunch burrito was very good. We were seated near a very loud group of 4 women, once they left the noise level was so much more pleasant. We love dining at this long time local treasure!
