Are you in the mood for pizza? Quite possibly, we are always in the mood for pizza. For scrumptious wood-fired pizza, dine at this jovial joint that receives rave reviews. While you’re here, you won’t want to miss the impressive wall full of self-serve brews.
Smokin’ Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom opened its doors in May 2021. You'll find it in the Midtown Crossing neighborhood of Omaha, Nebraska.
Take advantage of Happy Hour specials, or watch the University of Nebraska games on TV while you eat. A portion of the restaurant's profits benefits the Open Door Mission in Omaha. Smokin’ Oak also offers locations in Broomfield, CO, Grand Junction, CO, and Cedar Falls, IA, with additional locations coming soon.
Choose from one of the many wood-fired pizzas offered, including Classic Pizza, Margherita, Greek, Buffalo Chicken, Italian Stallion, Garden Veggie, Smokey Dokey, and Porky Pine.

Wood-fired pizzas cook quickly at 900 degrees, so you don’t have to wait very long for your delicious pizza.
Additional benefits of wood-fired pizza are energy conservation since neither gas nor electricity is used; rapid cooking prevents overcooking and the loss of nutrients in vegetables and other fresh ingredients; and best of all, the smoky flavor makes wood-fired pizza taste great.
In addition to dining on wood-fired pizza, you may also want to sample the Chorizo Wood-Fired Sandwich.
The sandwich is filled with chorizo, sharp parmesan, red and green peppers, jalapeño peppers, Roma tomatoes, red onion, romaine lettuce, and Smokin’ Oak’s made-from-scratch ranch dressing. Also available is the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wood-Fired Sandwich.
Another featured menu item is the Chopped Bleu Cheese Salad.
It is made with romaine lettuce, applewood bacon, Roma tomatoes, red onion, bleu cheese crumbles, and Amish bleu cheese dressing. The Smokin' Oak Salad includes sunflower seeds and house-made Dijon vinaigrette dressing. Opt for the Caesar Salad, with its wood-fired croutons.
Smokin' Oak's Omaha location is the first to feature a taproom, serving beer, wine, mixed cocktails, and hard seltzers, using a self-serve approach. You can taste a few ounces of a new beer, or pour a full glass of one of your favorites.
There are 35 taps on the wall including 25 beers. Present an ID and a credit card to open a tab, then receive a bracelet. You'll ready a glass, swipe your bracelet in front of your beverage of choice, and start pouring.
