    The Eau Claire area has three or four spots that are really good for cocktails, you know the fancy…read morestuff that you're not gonna find on a regular drink menu at most bars. These are not mixed drinks. These are truly crafted cocktails. We have an excellent selection of liquors. Beers on tap. Wine. Appetizers and sandwiches. they have an outdoor seating area and rooftop seating for the summertime. Great service. Beautiful decor. The only downside is it's very loud in there. The acoustics are terrible. Could definitely use some sound absorbing tiles on the ceiling. It's right next to the amphitheater at River Prairie Park. Parking can be tight when there's a concert. It's also a little spender than your average place in the area. I think it's worth it for the experience and unique cocktails.

    If you love wine - they have a curated wine selection that is fantastic. If you want a great…read morecocktail - look no further, the whiskey selection is one of the best in WI. Try the Bourbon Flights - great deal for some excellent hard to find Bourbons. The food is made from scratch and is amazing. Great location and the outside patio it warm and allows for great people watching. The staff made us feel welcome, like sitting in someone's living room. Most of the bottles are available for retail purchase and available at the restaurant. This could be your everyday spot, or just for a special occasion - but highly recommended.

    TLDR: creative cocktail and good menu with a Wisconsin twist…read more I brought my group of 8 family and friends here and everyone loved what they ordered! The menu features a lot of local Wisconsin produce and Wisconsin favorites with a twist, like Baked Cheese Curds (the tomato jam is SO GOOD) and Portobello Poppers with a wild rice and cheddar filling (it was so tasty I couldn't believe it was vegetarian!). Everyone really liked the Chicken Fried Rabbit (obviously, not our veg friend lol). The buttermilk-brined rabbit leg was so juicy and tender. The red cabbage slaw on the side was a perfect pairing. The Candied Pork Belly just melted in my mouth, no joke! And I love that it was seasoned with hoisin sauce and came with some baba ghanoush, which you'd think wouldn't go together--but it so does. For my main, I had the Grilled Ribeye and my bf had the Roasted Lamb. Both were cooked to perfection (medium rare) and both were phenomenal! The chimichurri on the side had some sweet kick to it but the steak didn't even need it bc it was plenty flavorful and tasty. The lamb was so tender and the mint gelee was *chef's kiss*. The Great Lakes Walleye was served on a nice tomato confit brodo and my bf's parents absolutely loved how imaginative it was. We all thought it'd just come out with a side of potatoes or something but the presentation blew us away AND they said it was very lovely. The kids loved their How 'Bout Them Apples pizza, which wouldn't have been my first choice (apples on pizza?!) but it did look tasty! For drinks, I ordered the Seamus (which is basically an old fashioned with Irish whiskey) and my partner ordered the Watermelon Mojito. I couldn't believe he liked the Seamus bc he usually hates old fashioneds but tbf it was a very well balanced cocktail! His Watermelon Mojito was refreshing and yummy (but a little too sweet for me). My bf and our friend both loved it tho! We'll definitely be back again the next time we pass thru Eau Claire!!

    They're very friendly and need a reservation, although it is a fancy restaurant. Given the name,…read morethe informal I did not think it would be so formal... and wasn't really dressed for it. But they seated us anyway, and took good care of us. The food is good. We just had a small shared salad and pizza. But I'll be honest it isn't as good as some of the more formal restaurants that I have been to.. (but again we only had pizza).

    We had reservations for brunch. Waited 10+ minutes for a table when we arrived at our reserved…read moretime, and proceeded to then wait *50 minutes* for our food after ordering (fairly simple breakfast items). This was while multiple other parties who arrived after us were served their food, ate, paid and left. It was quite obvious they forgot to submit the order or the kitchen lost the ticket. These things happen and I would never fault someone for an accident when they acknowledge and apologize. But they acted like nothing was wrong when I asked (after 35 minutes of waiting), and I was also quite surprised that they didn't offer any discount or food while we waited. The food was good, but definitely not worth the wait or the $65+ bill for 4 people just ordering breakfast and nothing else. Sadly may be our first and last time here, even though we had heard great things about it.

    We went on a Sunday morning. I was surprised they don't open until 9 for breakfast. We made a…read morereservation for 915 and got in right away. The place filled up quickly. By the time we left there were a lot of people waiting for a table. The hostess and waitstaff were very friendly. Water glasses and coffee were kept full. The coffee was a little watery. I had the ham and cheddar omelette. I didn't want the hash browns so they substitute a salad instead. The salad was good. The omelette was very different. The eggs were extremely soft. It had sliced ham which was a little hard to cut through and the cheddar cheese was very sharp. The sourdough bread was good. My husband had the biscuits and gravy which he said wasn't very hot. My daughter in law said the hash browns were very good.
