This was a nice place. Friendly staff. Clean place, clean bar. It was a pricey place to eat. I had an 8 oz tenderloin and it was nearly fifty dollars. I am always ready to try steak at a new place, but not so sure I would order it again because it didn’t have a lot of taste or lack seasoning. But it was very tender. I would try this place again, when I have more time.

My husband and I called ahead and made a reservation, so we didn’t have to wait to be seated. We went in December, so the place was decorated for Christmas and it was super cute! The service was great – even though it wasn’t on the menu, the bartender still made me an Irish coffee, which was exactly what I wanted coming in from the cold.

Was there to celebrate my birthday at the end of May. This restaurant is simply incredible. From the moment I walked in it was wonderful, the bartender and wait staff were wonderful. And the owner made it a point to join us after for a drink and celebrate. To me it was the perfect experience. 10/10 recommend to anyone!

Food was expensive for what you get. Pastas are not served with salad or bread. Pasta should be served with at least bread. Food was very good, but be aware of pricing.

Delicious food and great atmosphere. We dined outside and it was beautiful! Erin was our server and she was very friendly plus helpful with any questions we had. The chocolate cake is AMAZING!!!

The atmosphere was casual and inviting. The varied menu made it hard to choose which meal to try. The Chicken and artichoke was fabulous, reasonable…made you want to lick the plate! Dessert of Peach Berry Crisp was the perfect finish. Hardworking staff during trying times is to be commended. Bravo!

Absolute trash. Owner is an angry elf. If you are looking to pay mid range prices for garbage food this is the place to go. Most of their offerings could be made off of a recipe found on the back of a pasta box. Do not waste your time here. Ciao, The Mint, McDonald’s are better places to go. Come here if you feel like being talked down to. I have never in my life sent a dish back, literally never! Had to send a cold dish back with rock hard noodles. First time I thought it was a mistake, no harm no foul, second time I was shocked and told the server politely. She scoffed and said some people are never happy. I stood up and asked to speak to a manager, the owner came out and immediately said, “ let me guess you want your food for free.” I said, “nope! I just want to pay and leave.” We did that, went to the mint and got excellent service and good food. Good people run good businesses, this place doesn’t fall into that category. don’t give this monster your business.

I decided to finally try this place. Probably one of a handful of restaurants I had not been to in the wausau area.

First time here and I was so disappointed with the service at this place as it was probably the worst service my husband and I have ever had. The hostess seated us and then no one came to check on us or get our drink orders for at least 15 minutes and we talked about leaving at this time and I wish we would’ve.
