Lost Treasures Omaha celebrates the city with nearly 300 entries, ranging from restaurants you knew and loved, like Rose Lodge and its famous fried chicken or Fair Deal Cafâe, the de facto city hall of the Northside, to theaters, drive-ins, and hangouts of days past to Omaha's icons and curiosities, and plenty in between. What makes a Lost Treasure?
