Foxy Sushi has permanently closed the drive-thru location that first put it on Omaha's fast-casual sushi map, shutting down its original spot at 18101 Chicago Street in Elkhorn and shifting all operations downtown into its Old Market taproom partnership. The closure leaves West Omaha without the rare drive-thru sushi concept, while the brand now operates solely out of Brickway Brewery & Distillery at 1116 Jackson Street.

An Elkhorn Run Comes to a Close

Foxy Sushi announced the permanent shutdown of its Elkhorn store on its Facebook page, confirming that all operations would consolidate into its downtown venue inside Brickway Brewery & Distillery, according to the restaurant's Facebook post.

At 18101 Chicago Street, Foxy Sushi gained local prominence as a drive-thru sushi concept, offering fast-casual convenience alongside made-to-order rolls, according to the Douglas County Post-Gazette. The Douglas County Post-Gazette writer said they did not know of another sushi restaurant with a drive-through.

A Downtown Taproom Partnership

Foxy Sushi's remaining location operates inside Brickway Brewery & Distillery at 1116 Jackson Street in the Old Market. Foxy Sushi opened inside that Old Market taproom in 2025, giving the brand a foothold downtown well before the Elkhorn closure.

In June 2023, Brickway Brewery & Distillery acquired Lucky Bucket Brewing Company and Cut Spike Distillery, according to a release hosted by EIN Presswire.

The Vacated Elkhorn Site

The vacated space is an end-cap retail unit featuring a drive-thru window, according to a CBRE listing.

West Dodge Road's Dining Boom Continues

The timing is notable given how hot the surrounding corridor has become. West Omaha's West Dodge Road area around Village Pointe has seen rapid commercial dining expansion in 2026, attracting national chains making their Nebraska debuts, according to the Staci Mueller Group. Concepts like Culinary Dropout, Yard House, and The Capital Grille have all picked the corridor for their state expansion, underscoring just how competitive that retail stretch has become for any single restaurant operator trying to hold ground.

Ponzu Sushi & Grill is in Aksarben.
