Omaha Dining (Millard area)?

Question

Every year my road trip takes me through Omaha for a one night stay in the area of I-80 and S 144th.

And every year my problem is finding a place within a few miles of my motel to eat dinner!

I've tried Millard Roadhouse a few times...it's "ok."

Looking over the other places--most either don't have web sites, don't post prices on their online menus, or don't have online reviews.

I'm looking for advice on the tastiest food and value--a small dinner for around $8.

Shirley's Diner on S 139th

Hawaiian Grill on U Street

China Bistro on P Street

Great Wall on Q Street

and

Sapp Brothers on Sapp Brothers Drive (that BIG coffee pot you can see from I-80 LOL)

If you know of other places in that area suggest away!

I don't mind a local franchise but would like to avoid the national chains.

Thanks!
