Houligans Steak & Seafood Pub 415 S Barstow St, Eau Claire Steak House • $$
415 S Barstow St, Eau Claire

“Make reservations here!!! Caleb was our waiter and he was everything a waiter should be. Very impressed. I have high standards with how waitstaff should be, as I used to be one and he was incredible. Attended to each table on its own & did not rush.My husband ordered a caesar salad tossed in ranch and he said that was the best salad he’s ever had. He is a rib eye guy and went ahead and ordered the rib eye, medium rare, with the Irish Whiskey sauce with onions & mushrooms. That had to be the best rib eye him & I have ever had while dining out!!The special was Scallops, topped with a seasoned bread crumb with Au Gratin potatoes & vegetable was green beans. That is what I wanted, so I ordered! These scallops w/ the potatoes were mouth watering, right with the rib eye!**Awesome establishment to take your loved one on a date! Or even a group of family & friends. The stained glass work was nice decor to look at. Nice variety of wines & alcohol beverages to choose from or an ice water with a fresh lemon! I hope this helps you decide on where to go !!!Parking: Because this restaurant is downtown, be prepared to park & walk. Not far, but at least a block. It’s well worth it though! Just drop off your lady. She can wait in the warm entrance for you!”

“Husband and I were looking to celebrate Valentine's Day a day earlier to avoid long waits or a crowd on the day of. On a whim we stopped in at 5 pm, fully prepared to be told the restaurant was full. Pleasantly surprised when they were able to seat us immediately, even thoughtful enough to hold a table for us while I was trying to find a parking spot. Definitely recommend the Lion's mane "crab" cakes- I would come back just for this and this alone. I had the scallops which were a seasonal special and they did not disappoint. Husband had the pineapple pizza which was great also. Looking forward to coming back to try more!”

Geno's Pizza 5110 Fairview Dr, Eau Claire Pizza • $$
5110 Fairview Dr, Eau Claire

“So, Geno's management responded to my review.I guess the first thing I personally would say as an embassador for the brand would be...."I'm sorry you had a poor experience at our restaurant. We aim for high satisfaction with all of our customers. We hope your next experience is a positive one, so come for a free pie on us and will make sure that you are happy in the future moving on as a customer. Thanks for your important and constructive criticism".INSTEAD what was posted was a feeble attempt to defend themselves that goes like this...Thank you for the review A.J.,We have three TVs,(I SAW ONE)The restrooms are in-between both restaurants and not in the foyer.(BUDDY, IN-BETWEEN 2 DOORS IS THE FOYER)We sell a lot of wings and we use air fryers as we do not want to deep fry them. We pre cook them in house with our signature seasoning then package them ourselves so not sure how they could be undercooked.(BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T COOKED CORRECTLY IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND THEN THEY WERE OLD AND EXPIRED WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE SLIMY AND THEN FROZEN AND SERVED A MONTH LATER. THAT'S NOT A PRODUCT I WOULD STAND BEHIND)We use Franks buffalo sauce with is what most wing places use.(HOW IS TELLING ME THAT YOU USE FRANK'S BUFFALO SAUCE AS A HOUSE SIGNATURE SEASONING)Anyway we also have another room attached to our restaurant with a fireplace and tables for another 20 people.(YES A PRIVATE ROOM SEPARATE FROM THE RESTAURANT. I GET IT, IT'S NOT PART OF THE RESTAURANT. IT'S A DARK DINGY ROOM THAT'S UNINVITING.)As for our inside décor we have almost no generic Italian artwork at our restaurant with the exception of one original that was painted for us by one of our customers. Most of our décor is a tribute to Eau Claire and sports.I SUPPOSE THAT'S YOUR OPINION, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE GOODWILL TOOK A DUMP IN THERE. RANDOM LITTLE STATUES OF FAT ITALIAN MAKING PIZZA. THAT'S KNOWN AS GENERIC DECOR.)This was a very long review(I WANTED TO MAKE SURE I WAS DETAILED AND BRUTALLY HONEST.)and running the best restaurant for Pizza in Eau Claire takes an enormous amount of work so I have to get back to it. (FDBABLE AND IT SHOWS IN YOUR BUILDING, YOUR MANAGEMENT, DEMEANOR, YOUR STAFF AND PRODUCT.)Come back and try our signature Geno's sauce on your wings and our award winning pizza.I WOULD TAKE YOUR RESPONSE FAR MORE SERIOUSLY IF IT WASN'T RIDDLED WITH TYPOS BECAUSE YOU'RE POUNDING AWAY AT YOUR KEYBOARD LIKE SOME ANGRY TEENAGER.”

Northern Taphouse - Eau Claire 5020 Keystone Crossing, Eau Claire Pizza • $$

“My wife and I were really happy with both the food (she got a salmon dish and I got traditional wings with fries). We were very happy with the food.There was an honest mistake in what my wife ordered, and the staff bent over backward to make things right. The thing that she received was really tasty and filling, a happy little accident, as Bob Ross might describe it. Goofs happen, but how they handled it was first-class.The pricing was also very reasonable. Two main dishes and one beer was about $40.Tasty, friendly, good service, fun atmosphere! We'll be coming back.”

“The Alibi is a delicious cocktail of sports fans, casual drinkers, after workers, bikers, boomers, zoomers, gamblers, and everything in between. It scores high marks for everything that is relevant to a bar in Eau Claire.The bar is staffed with pleasant people who contribute nicely to the attractive atmosphere both inside and outside. If you prefer the latter, you will be pleased to find an outside bar section with games to play and that also serves as a designated smoking area.The bar is nearly perfect so be sure to thank the owner when you see her there”

“Service was great. The robot part was cute but unnecessary. Food was excellent. My only criticism is they use too much rice in their sushi rolls and compact it down so it makes a thick rice shell over the fish and hides some of the flavor of the sushi. I would definitely go back.”

“I had a flight, which is pretty pricy, but you get 5 oz of 5 beers, which is more than many flights.The Peanut Butter Milk Stout was good, it tastes exactly like Belching Beaver PB stout. The Imperial Stout was good, nothing special. But the Anniversary Ale with Bourbon Vanilla and Coconut was fantastic. And I had one of the fruity raddlers, tastes yummy like a soda.I love the venue, with all the wood, open space, and outdoor patio.”
