I thought that it was better late than never to reply to this old thread.
I haven't lived in Lincoln for sometime but Vincenzo's in the Hay Market is pretty good Italian food. There are some pretty good resturants in and around the Hay Market. Lazlos is a micro brewery with good beer and good food, mostly along the lines of burgers but other fare as well. Buzzard Billy's serves cajun food. Outside of the Hay Market is Misty's steak house. The original is on the eastern side of town but the downtown location is easier to get to from the interstate. It serves a good steak.
There is a growing Hispanic population and a service like Yelp would probably help you find some good small Mexican restaurants.
