“It’s always a pleasure to visit this place. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. Andrea, the owner, is an extraordinary person who truly cares about every detail and makes everyone feel at home. I highly recommend this place. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“5th year in a row we’ve rented the group space for our post-Christmas office party. It never disappoints. A perfect space for our energetic group who loves to chat, laugh, and move around a bit. Bonus that there is great beer available, a friendly bartender, AND we can bring in whatever food we want to feed our crew. Such a great option. Looking forward to next year!”
“So good! I went for the first time this Saturday, true hidden gem.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“We were in here tonight for supper. Our waitress Riana was excellent. She made sure the food and drinks we ordered were choice not food allergies. I am sure on this snowy night they would have rather been home but Riana was friendly and cheerful. The food was great as always but service stood above that. Thanks.”
“Get down to Stella Blues. Amazing food, generous portions and save room for dessert!!! Shout out to Hollie our server. She had great recommendations and was very patient with us as we were trying to figure out what delicious meal to try for our first experience. We will definitely be back!”

“We are regularly at Randy's, about every Friday you'll find us there. We have never had a bad meal,always plenty of food and the prices are very fair. The wait staff are always friendly, our food comes out fast. I would definitely recommend Randy's for a good meal, breakfast, lunch,and dinner all good.”
“The food was amazing. The service was even better. My child and I have an egg allergy. When we let the server know we wanted to exclude the egg, he asked if it was an allergy. When we said yes, he immediately suggested to add tofu. With no additional fee. Most places charge for adding even if you take something away. I will be going back! Not only for the food that was wonderful, but for the service! It is much appreciated!”

“My husband and I are new members of Midwest Meals. I was a bit hesitant at first but I’m so happy I tried them. We’ve been ordering from them for two weeks now, both pick up and delivery. The service is wonderful (very friendly and helpful folks), the food is really good and very fresh and they even offer home delivery at a very affordable price! I’ve even lost six pounds in these two weeks just by replacing my lunch with one of their meals! I highly recommend this place!”
“Amazing all you can eat sushi & full menu. Always fresh & perfect portion sizes for all you can eat. Service is always consistent, as well. It is a nice date spot for my husband & I- whether during lunch time or evening time. Definitely one of our favorite go-to spots in Eau Claire.”
“We went on Christmas Eve and it was packed. It only took 10 minutes to be seated for the hibachi. Once we tried the food we knew why it was packed. The food and service was AMAZING!!! This is the absolute best food in Eau Claire.”

“I've never had a good experience at this restaurant. haven't been here in years. I decided to swing in for a quick salad after my workout. I got there at 12:50 PM on a Tuesday. I was able to order right away, I didn't order a beverage. At 1:00 the couple behind me sat down, at 1:05 the couple behind me ordered. At 1:10 the couple behind me got their order(S) I ordered a chicken Caesar salad and was solo. I had other oligations going on I had to get to, I figured it wouldn't take that long for a chicken salad. As I got to the festival foods doors, The manager came out of famous Dave's and yelled, "Don't you want your food?" 😂 ....Yeah I sure did but not 40 minutes later sorry not sorry. Thanks for nothing!”
“Their food is absolutely delicious. Their staff is friendly and very accommodating. And it's just a cool place to be! We asked to be put by the fireplace because I was cold and they literally moved a table for us to be in front of the fireplace. Later they checked in about how we were doing temperature wise.
They even include 18% gratuity so tipping isn't expected. We had great service, so still added more.
My only complaint is they use Styrofoam boxes for leftovers.”
“The food is pretty good, i usually get the infinite pasta bowl, as it is the most for your dollar if you have a big stomach, and the service was nice and helpful when I went with my parents.”
“This was my first time dining here and the experience was wonderful. The creme brulee was not great, served cold and not creamy as I prefer. Otherwise the food was great.”
“Great experience at Chako. We did the BBQ and everything was delicious especially the garlic shrimp. I do wish myself and my wife could do different meal types. I would’ve liked to do the all you can eat sushi with added BBQ and she would’ve just done the BBQ but I guess that is not an option. We both would’ve had to get sushi with BBQ added on making it more $$ instead of me doing the sushi with added BBQ and her doing just the BBQ. We will be back though”

“Thor is an amazing batista! That makes the absolute best coffee! I enjoy coming when Thor is working to get my drink made! The other batistas are good but Thor definitely goes above and beyond!”
“Omg, that is the best of the best. 12 out 10‼️ All the food and the waitress was phenomenal‼️I left a $40 tip! That how awesome it was. No regrets or second thoughts about it. Our new favorite place‼️ I am already craving their ginger salad and sushi and its only been a couple hours‼️ You have to go try it.”

“My mornings as of late have been spent reflecting on all I'm grateful for. Not due to any holiday traditions or faith or that, but just to simply go over the details and experience in microdosing all the new people Ive met, the new places Im walking, the new days Im waking up to sunshine and a smile. That time has been spent at this AWESOME (not so little) WONDERFULLY FRIENDLY and DELICIOUS Cafe for Breakfast and Brunch called The Nucleus ⚛ Their staff is unbelieveably polite, considerate and lgbtqii+ inclusive all around! This has been a place Ive only started in but I already feel its now a regular haunt and a spot if you're in the area cant be missed if you want to get up on the right piece of toast~ [ALSO: Vegan Options!!] Take a morning and treat yo self. Go to: The Nucleus⚛ Eau Claire, WI.”
“Ordered a cheese tray and veggie tray for a work party recently. 100% happy. We’ll put together, displayed beautifully, and great quality product. Ordered last summer too for a grad party and was very impressed then too. ECC&D is now our go-to for cheese, veggie, and fruit trays!”
“First time customer here. Excellent entree—Gorgonzola penne with peppers.Great staff!”
“Food & the selection of fish was outstanding! Service was great! I tried the ocean perch, cod, and walleye and loved them all!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“It was our first time at Sammy’s. Hubby and I wanted something quick and simple and affordable. I had always wanted to stop for the salad buffet. We ordered the lunch special which is the personal pizza and salad bar. The salad bar was good but if I had my way, I wish it had greens and not shredded iceberg. I’d pay a dollar or two more for that. 😂 But it was still good and fresh. The waitress was SUUUUPPPEERR friendly. I asked her recommendation for pizza and she said the primo which is what I ordered. It did not disappoint! What I noticed immediately that it was REAL sausage chunks. Not the cheap pellets you sometimes see. Also I saw that there was sausage evenly distributed to ensure you get a piece of meat at every bite. Most places don’t do that and it drives me nuts. The crust was thin and crunchy which I loved. There was a good sauce to cheese ratio. If you want something affordable, stop at this great mom n pop restaurant. They even have take home frozen pizzas. No cardboard pizzas here. We will be regular customers when we crave pizza. Yumm!”
“Growler Guys is an Eau Claire fixture. When I lived in Eau Claire, this was my regular hang out and I met the love of my life here (no guarantees - but give it a try!) The owner is a stand up guy and the staff really cares about customer experience. It’s a true community spot and even on days off as a busy resident physician, I found myself volunteering for the community events (Mother’s day, Easter, Thanksgiving, etc.) If you are young/new parents, you and your children are so welcome! If you’re single or childless and just want to meet new friends, don’t think twice. For those who limit or don’t drink alcohol, there are plenty of alternatives. This was the first place I ever visited when I moved to Eau Claire (peri-pandemic) and the last place I bid farewell to when I moved. It will always have a special place in my heart. Run, don’t walk folks!”
“Shea is the best. This was our first time at Fazoli’s ever, and we will for sure be back! From the moment we arrived, it was friendly and welcoming. Her attentiveness and her focus on genuinely caring about our experience meant a lot. Such a great lasting impression, even for the kids!”
“Get down to Stella Blues. Amazing food, generous portions and save room for dessert!!! Shout out to Hollie our server. She had great recommendations and was very patient with us as we were trying to figure out what delicious meal to try for our first experience. We will definitely be back!”
“I come to Culver’s pretty much every week, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh and tastes great every time I go. The place has a really chill, relaxed vibe, which makes it a nice spot to hang out with friends or just grab a quick meal. Overall, it’s super consistent and definitely one of my favorite places to eat with my friends.”
“BINGO 10/10, jalapeño pretzel bites FIRE?, and bar vibe is UNMATCHED. NOT TO MENTION, the best DJ/karaoke in the area. I am so thankful to work with such an amazing work family! If you haven’t checked out the 5 or looking for a great work environment, the 5 O’Clock Club is your spot! ?”
“Every time I’m in town, this coffee shop is a must-stop for me! The drinks are always fantastic.. smooth, flavorful, and made just right. Beyond the coffee, the shop itself is absolutely adorable. It has such a cozy, welcoming vibe, and I love browsing through the cute gifts and little goodies they have for sale. It’s the perfect spot to grab a drink, relax, and maybe even pick up a treat or two to take home. Highly recommend stopping in if you’re nearby!”
“Amazing all you can eat sushi & full menu. Always fresh & perfect portion sizes for all you can eat. Service is always consistent, as well. It is a nice date spot for my husband & I- whether during lunch time or evening time. Definitely one of our favorite go-to spots in Eau Claire.”
“I really like the pita chips I bought - but noticed they are using soybean oil to fry them in, which is one of the most unhealthy oils we can eat. Hopefully they change that.”
“We had such a great time at this resort! All the staff were so nice and helpful. We were going to stay longer but a huge snow storm was coming so they offered to accommodate for us to stay longer but we decided to leave before the storm hit and they were so understanding and refunded us our last night. The arcade was so much fun and the go carts! We also had a blast on the jump trampolines and indoor play place. City eats had amazing food! We ate there both nights. Highly recommend this resort. Clean, friendly, pet friendly too, and great staff.”
“We treated ourselves to dinner there on the Saturday after Christmas. It was amazing. Impecable details abound from the attentive wait staff, to the cooked-to-perfection (and personal requests) meals, desserts and cocktails. An excellent choice for feeling pampered... perfection without ego! Comfortable! A special note of thanks to Eric for his attention to every detail.”

“Best BBQ around the area that I have ever had. everything tastes great! the onion and pickles on a pulled pork sandwich (which I normal dont eat onions) something about the combinations there are wonderful! the local honey mixed in with the butter for the amazing cornbread. the tritip steak when they have it YUM!! to the dessert with cool whip. the variety of catered food for wedding and all other events blows my mind every time! even people from other states like Texas, I've heard compliment the food there, and that says something. 100% recommend this place and 100% worth every penny...#fulleverytime4alongtime#foodietime”
“Now when I say this is my favorite place to eat, I mean it! It has been the best since the first location opened, and the rest are also outstanding! The owners are amazing, the food is always delicious, and the staff is always great as well. I will always be back. also, everyone should definitely try the queso sauce. the absolutely most amazing one!”
“I was so impressed by the staff here! We just left after a very hectic early morning Packer game and I was just so impressed by how amazing the service was! Despite the large crowd they were attentive, fast and so welcoming. It seemed like they all genuinely enjoyed it all when it would have been easy to feel overwhelmed. Plus the food and Bloody Mary’s were delicious! 10/10 would recommend for a game or just a few drinks! Will be back!”
“The Joynt is the coolest bar on Water Street. It should be on the National Registry of Historic Places, too. I had the pleasure of meeting Odetta once when she was in Minneapolis promoting the Stillwater Jazz Festival and we talked about the Joynt, which she had played at a decade before.”
“I came up from Madison to see Kat and the Hats. Amazing entertainment, drinks and friendly staff! Highly recommend!”

“The place to go for the best prices, drinks, food, staff and clean environment.”

“WOW, was this good! I'm a Chicago girl, and grew up with gyros running through my veins, and this was just right! I requested grilled onions, which were perfect atop a blanket of gyros atop a bed of rice. There was a side of a bean puree (maybe chickpeas/garbanzos?) that was so good I could have eaten a bowl of that, alone! The falafel was perhaps a bit dense in texture (personal preference, not a criticism!), but the flavor was terrific, and the sauce was so good you could bathe in it! The owner's wife was flying solo this Sunday but, despite that, food was done in a completely reasonably amount of time, especially given the falafel was fried fresh to order, as were my requested onions. She couldn't have been sweeter, confirmed to me that the rice is Basmati, falafel mix was made that day, kept apologizing for the delay (truly, a 6-8 minute wait for fresh-to-order food is nothing; I've waited 20-25 minutes at Burger King in Black River Falls! Yikes!). The prices were super-reasonable, and the quality of everything was excellent. Consider me the newest fan, and I encourage visitors to Oakwood Mall or folks who live nearby to visit; we need another good Mediterranean option in Wisconsin, and these guys are terrific! I make chicken shawarma all the time; looking forward to my next visit to Eau Claire to try theirs, as well as those Mediterranean fries I keep hearing so much about!!! Yours truly!!! ~Chrissie Odeen”

“First time here in a long time, wasn’t disappointed! Came in tonight around 5:30, walked in paid about $55 for 3 off us. Food was amazing, fresh broasted chicken, fresh pizzas, french fries were perfect, not soggy at all, good dessert pizzas all coming out as fast as food was being taken! Place was clean, friendly staff. Would definitely recommend!”

“The food was just amazing and the Server was very respectful. I had a great experience here. I had a smash burger and the taste was over all an amazing blend. I also had a sundae and nice combination at that, Carmel chocolate and whipped topping. The server Zach was a well mannered guy. Will be coming again. ❤️”

“I gave this place a second chance and was absolutely blown away by my waitress I didn’t catch her name, but she was a pretty Hispanic woman hard working, she checked on me multiple times. I ordered the eggs Benedict for “brunch” and a coffee everything was hot and fresh. (I like grilled onions with cheese sauce on my hash browns YUMMY) I did notice that there was other staff gossiping around the bar area though when they should have been checking in on their guests rather then playing on their phone. This was Monday 5/11/26 around 11am. The male manager also checked in on me multiple times too.”

“My husband and I both got smash burgers based on reviews. The burgers were both good but so small. Usually when we get burgers elsewhere, we each leave with half leftover because we are so full. We left here still hungry! Definitely worth upgrading to double smash burgers. $16 for a single smash burger is high considering you can get quite large double smash burgers at the district for the same price. The fries were not good. Very salty. And the chips had no flavor. But I will say I was pleasantly surprised when I got the bill and didn’t see an upcharge for adding lettuce, pickles, and mayo to my burger. Most places will penny pinch wherever they can so I really appreciated that these items were not an upcharge. I also love that they use fresh mushrooms and not canned! We are willing to try this place again!”
“Great experience at Chako. We did the BBQ and everything was delicious especially the garlic shrimp. I do wish myself and my wife could do different meal types.

“Shocked this business has anything less than 5*'s!?! It's my new favorite coffee place. Honestly, I like them all, but I've been really impressed how kind & knowledgeable the staff is assisting customers, especially being vegans, and the prices are super reasonable.”
“I had a bad experience today I went in there to pick up a door dash order and the guy approached me with for future reference don't park in the curbside pickup park a couple spots down!! Approach is everything you could have said please don't park there anymore we want that for curbside pickup?!! So I called the manager to say something and she asked me who I dealt with I said the guy with the long hair down to his back that should be pinned up better!! She said if you don't have anything nice to say about my workers I'm going to hang up I said I have problems with no one else there so I don't really have anything nice to say about him but still didn't say anything rude just the truth about his hair she then hung up on me so I called back 2 times and she picked up the phone and hung up on me again without saying anything!! So I called corporate and talked to Casey thanks for listening and addressing my concerns you two should be ashamed of yourselves!! Aleksey while I was on the phone with corporate I talked great about you and said these other two should take lessons from you I asked Casey to acknowledge you for how great you are there”
“Several times I’ve been to Panera bread and they gave me stuff for free when I was biking around with my friends this time they were closed but Savannah (I hope I spelled her name right) still gave me a cookie and some water. I’m surprised by the service there and how good their food is! My favorite dish is the ciabatta cheesesteak and who has never been there. I recommend to try it, it’s amazing! I love Panera their food, and especially their staff!”
“I’m not sure what these other comments are talking about, but every time I’ve been here, it’s been a treat. They provide the best customer service and care. I’m fine waiting however long it takes because they are making sure it’s right the first time around. Special shout out to the employee Lilly! She went above and beyond explaining what they are about and even provided samples of their favorite shake. I can’t express how impressed I am each time with this place.”
“Absolutely great pizza, super unique combinations that you'll never see anywhere else (but are always delicious!) The owners are also very good people. I'm so glad to support this local business!”
