Restaurants in Appleton

“Delicious food but extremely tiny portions. Nice atmosphere just don't come hungry.”

“The street corn tots were delicious! I would go back just for those. The burgers were good, but the beef did lack flavor. Our server was very attentive. She checked up on us often. One thing that didn't go so well was that we got the wrong order. It was our first time there so we didn't realize it, and honestly, the food took so long to come out, we forgot what burgers we ordered. So when they brought out our supposed order, my burger came with fries when I ordered a salad. I thought hey, maybe they forgot it and had fries instead. I didn't let the server know because she was busy and we were hungry, already waiting a long time for our food, and on a schedule. We needed to be somewhere and thought an hour and a half was sufficient time to eat, appearantly not. I would give this place another try, hoping that the food will come out sooner than later and that we don't get the wrong food order.”

“the staff was amazing, their food was as good as ever. it was clean and quick and friendly”

“Great food and great service! Could not recommend more!”

“This place was so good! It was our first time and everyone enjoyed the ice cream. The service was excellent and we can’t wait to go back.”

“Amazing food and great service!”

“If you are looking some great brunch with a top notch Bloody Mary, this is the place to go. The atmosphere is really laid back and perfect for a date.”

“We visited Molo for the first time this weekend. We have never experienced hot pot or Asian BBQ before, but the staff was very friendly and patient with us explaining how to use the equipment and what to expect. Our family had had a rough month, so we took this opportunity to get out of town and try something new, to have a fun time as a family. The staff blew our expectations out of the water. One staff member even went out of her way to take our daughter by the hand to show her how to prepare shaved ice, our daughter felt so special and you couldn't wipe the smile off her face. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to make our experience so special.”

“Recently had the honor of attending a private event here. While I did not try any beers (this time), the pizza was outstanding, the owner was fabulous and the vibes in this space are incredible. I can't wait to go here again to try some of the craft beers (which have amazing names by the way) and to eat more pizza!”

“When I say I will come back 1 time a week! 🙌🏽🫡🤞🏽🔥 Service AMAZING! FOOD EVEN BETTER!”

“the staff,the atmosphere and the food was amazing!!!!! highly recommend!!:))”

“We just had a birthday party here on Sunday for our two 7 year old boys. We reserved a room with one of the party packages, which included a ranch hand, pizza, ice cream, drinks, gift bags and arcade cards for each kid, and very accommodating staff. Nick is always friendly and provides great service every time we visit.”

“LOVE this restaurant. I wish it was there when I lived in the area 20 yrs ago. I still get there a few times a year. I really enjoy the blackened shrimp tacos. The service has always been wonderful and consistent. The manager stops by the table a QUICK check in. That small touch means so much!! Yesterday I had the lemon cake for dessert friend's had the gluten free chocolate cake. We were all in HEAVEN!! My second time there a couple years ago we had a server who was maybe having an off day. I talked to the manager on my way out & he was sincere & grateful I had let him know.”

“The baby shower cake turned out so cute. The taste was amazing. The colors were perfect. First time ordering a cake and I will be returning.”

“Went lunch here, for the first time, with a friend and we both loved the food, friendly staff, and the atmosphere 🩷 We split the amazing chickpea smash and chicken salad sandwiches. We also shared the scrumptious PB Oreo torte. The ice tea is homebrewd and made to order. What a lovely gem!! We'll both be back 😁”

“Food was excellent and the service was wonderful. So glad you are not closing. Appleton is lucky to have you.”

“The food was good, but wasn't worth the price. The steaks are overpriced because of the name. I think the worst part is you spend all that money and the only thing you get is a tiny house salad. For the amount of money you spend you should get standard side dishes. Good but grossly overpriced. It's a place you should go to once to say you have gone.”

“Under new ownership. I ate there with my wife, and my son and his wife. The food and service are excellent, everyone at the table agreed. We all had different dinners, a lot of depth in the menu. The guacamole is absolutely great. I can’t wait to try their food with Margaritas as well, we had flavored tea in the interim. A lot of restaurants are noisy inside yet this was not the case here. Next time we will try eating outdoors.”

“Our waitress was awesome & food were absolutely amazing! Loved it very much! ??? Just wish there was more space for privacy, floors are loud, finding the place is a bit hard, and kind of surprised only our waitress greeted us. We were the first to dine, so no one was in the restaurant at all. No bartender said anything and tons of wait staff walking past us.”

“OMG! Kitties. What more do you need? They show you to pick up the kittens, but not the adult cats. Yes they do have kittens. I do not know if they always keep some kittens for people to meet, or if they just happened to have some. If you are looking for adoptable kitties, this place has them. If you're just looking for some kitty time to brighten your day, they've got that too. Great experience.”

“Our teen daughter’s favorite place to celebrate her birthday! Hubby & I live that it’s always during Restaurant Week so we can do the 3 course lunch. Our food was delicious. Since it was her birthday they brought her a piece of cake with a HUGE sparkler candle on it.”

“We have been to GingerRootz in the past to dine in and have done take out 4+ times. Always good and have been happy! Tonight, my husband called in an order for my Birthday to take out 1-12-23. Everything was Awesome! Quality of food prepared and freshness was Outstanding! They did not skimp… nice portions, so flavorful with plentiful sauce, the Sushi Rolls were fantastic… so fresh and they were huge and stuffed full… you could taste each ingredient! The fresh Ginger was 10 times better than most! Highly recommend! Whoever took order, prepared order and boxed up… all should get a kudos! Chef and Sushi Chef two thumbs way up!👍😉”

“Alicia was one of the best servers we ever had!!! We almost gave up on Olive Garden because of the service we’ve been getting in Wausua but now if we go we’ll probably come to this location & we will be hoping we get her as a server !”

“Ok, so I've been to DC , MS, and have since been looking for a seafood boil in this area at all, much less a good one! And these guys nailed it!! Ty and welcome the best. Build your own seafood boil to the Appleton area!”

“Always amazing!! Will definitely go back!”

“Great food and drinks and excellent customer service!”

“Island Sushi Appleton is the only place I will go for sushi. They have options for everyone’s tastes and if they don’t, they can help find something you’ll like! The chefs are fantastic; conversational, accommodating & great at recommending rolls or substitutions! They are also great at getting my picky child to try new things always!”

“I love this place. They have excellent food and very friendly service. Their prices are great, and you get what you pay for. I recommend the orange chicken, the chicken with broccoli, and both the shrimp, lo mein, and fried rice. The orange chicken and chicken with broccoli are excellent, and the broccoli is nice and crunchy, just the way I like it.”

“A regular compliment of beers with new brews several times a year. I also like that they change up the food menu on a somewhat regular basis and are often having daily / weekly specials.”

“Just had lunch here, host greeted us fast and friendly. Our waiter Leidy was absolutely fantastic. He attended to us frequently and made sure our drinks were always filled. He has a fantastic memory has he took our order without having to write it down. 100% accurate and really good! Great portion for the lunch menu. We had the Fajita salad. Fresh ingredients and good price!! 10/10 in customer service, atmosphere, and food.”

“Great bartenders, fun atmosphere!!! We used this place as a meeting place for our family members from across the states, had a fabulous time!!! Couldn't have picked a better location !”

“Happy Bellies delivered (literally and figuratively) for our wedding desserts! We are so grateful to have found a bakery that was allergy-safe. The fall flavored cupcakes went over well and we loved our cutting cake! We even added on donuts for the morning after. :) 10/10 recommend!”

“Such a beautiful place and clean atmosphere. Food is amazing and the desserts are delicious! Definitely worth checking out.”

“If you’re looking for a good place to grab a beer, you found it here. Great brews, unique taps, and the best service. I’ve tried nearly all their beers and each one is delicious with them creating new beers (which is why I say I tried nearly all). While they might not serve food, you can bring food in. But this is my go to when I need to grab a good beer. I highly recommend people to check them out”

“Home burger bar is probably one of the best places to go, the people who work there are so nice and we’ve made some good friendships with some of them, definitely recommend going if you haven’t the food is also amazing!♥️”

“Wanted to try something new with my sister. George our server did an amazing job and I wish I had tipped him more to be honest. I got the flaming lamb ribs and it was sooo tender and delicious. Too bad I was full from the appetizers, otherwise I would of ordered desserts.”

Our waitress was friendly and attentive. SO had the Saturday special prime rib. I had bbq ribs and brisket. Both were delish. Also had stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer which were excellent. Highly recommend! Very nice atmosphere for a date night.”

“Thomas brought my order out to me today. What a pleasant young man! He was very personable and gave a genuine compliment to me. Super professional and friendly. Thank you!”

“very good gyros have not had any that good since Greek town in Chicago.”

“Absolutely disgusting meal. Food had obviously been precooked and then reheated in microwave. Spent $24.00 on this meal. Only remedy was the manager, Justin, offered coupons. I have no use for coupons to a restaurant I'm not going to patronize again. We threw the food away because we were concerned about possibly getting food poisoning.”

“Tried for the first time in DePere. Very picky about my tacos and want my hot sauce HOT. This place was *chefs kiss*. Happy to have a place I like closer than taco burrito on Webster. I've asked my husband to go every day since we tried it. Everything was amazing, fresh and fast!! A+++”

“This breakfast joint? Not half bad! Sure, it's a bit cozy, but the art and decor certainly added some charm. The grub was alright, didn't exactly make my taste buds do a happy dance. But hey, the staff were lovely and the place was spotless. All in all, a pretty decent experience.”

“I’ve been here several times and it’s a great place. I like it a lot. Only thing I’m worried about is the workplace environment. It looks a bit cramped in there and it gets crowded in the lobby frequently. I hope the employees get paid well, and are treated well in a stressful environment like this. I always tip them, and hope they have a splendid rest of their day. I enjoy the cookies a lot!”

“I ordered my daughters birthday cake, I requested a nutcracker sugar plum sheet cake with lots of pink. They exceeded my expectations! It turned out so adorable. Frosting was very yummy and cake was moist.”

“hope your establishment is paying her well because she earns every penny she's working for! I have never ever in my 60 plus years had such excellent service! Irene- may you always be blessed! Our very young petite waitress (Irene?) was beyond superb! She was quick to serve us, kept my coffee cup filled, she didn't miss a beat in every detail of serving us! I sure hope your establishment is paying her well because she earns every penny she's working for! I have never ever in my 60 plus years had such excellent service! Irene- may you always be blessed!”

“Incredible food and service!! The employees are friendly, outgoing, and fun! We had lots of laughs with our waitress! Thank you Luigi's!!!”

“Victorias is by far our favorite Italian restaurant. We have been going there for 26 years. Birthdays, anniversaries, family gatherings. We have not had a meal that was not delightful, and the service is always top notch. If you have not visited, you should put it on your list. If you have been there you know what I’m talking about. You go once and you will go back.”

“Their fish lunches are the best! We order them at least once a month and believe me you won't go home hungry! Great service too !!”

“Love this place! My favorite to go to. Awesome drinks and prices, and even better bartenders. Super clean!”

“Had Sunday brunch and we’re very pleased with the whole experience.. Chef Nick served up a delicious meal and the service was great! Looking forward to another chance to try another dish from their new menu.”

“Went there twice with different friends. Everyone was impressed with the salad bar. Small but good selection of items. Liver Paste was my favorite others enjoyed the split pea soup. Two of us had the Frog Leg Special the other had the Petite Sirloin. Second time I went with 4 men. I still couldn’t resist the Frog Legs. A father son had the Sirloin for two and the other had a Med. Sirloin. We were surprised that they had beets on the salad bar. In all a great experience.”

“Betsy the owner is so accommodating and kind to her customers. I have to wonder the motive behind some of these comments posted here. I became a customer a few years back now and I don't start my day without my stop at Jo-To-Go. The Raspberry Truffle Latte is just yummy!”

“LOVE this restaurant. I wish it was there when I lived in the area 20 yrs ago. I still get there a few times a year. I really enjoy the blackened shrimp tacos.

“Madras Cafe is an absolute gem of a restaurant! The owner warmly greeted us when we came in. He asked if we had ever eaten there before and when we said no kindly explained the menu. He asked our preferences and made personal recommendations for each member of our group. The food was EXCEPTIONAL! I never write reviews but knew instantly I needed to share my experience. The foods were flavorful and the spices vibrant. I have to mention the coffee. If you are a coffee drinker, then you are about to be ruined for all other coffee. It was smooth and rich. Reminded me of French press but better. The prices are reasonable and fits into any budget. The owner explained how each dish was best eaten and shared a charming story about how his mother's cooking influenced the restaurant's menu. I have never felt so welcome and at home in a restaurant. I highly recommend.”

“I ordered two Party Packages for an event that I had and they had everything ready when I picked it up and they even loaded it into my vehicle. My quests loved the food and kept asking where I got it from. The beef brisket was a fan favorite. I would definitely order from them again. If you are looking to serve a large group (I had over 100 people) and give them great food this is the place to go!”

“We just had a birthday party here on Sunday for our two 7 year old boys.

Nick is always friendly and provides great service every time we visit.”

“We were here at 3:30 pm, so it was very quiet. I saw someone complain about the cleanliness but it seemed clean to me even the bathroom.

It took quite a while to get our drinks and the waiter kept apologizing. I believe they were training staff at the bar.

As far as seating - plenty for big crowds.

Food - Pre-meal croissant with honey butter.
I ordered ribs with honey bbq, buttered corn and southern green beans. Everything was hot, cooked as it should have been and delicious. Even the corn had a nice crisp. The ribs fell off the bone. My rasp margarita was meh, I've had better.

Husband had grilled sirloin, loaded potato and green beans. He said it was very tender and actually very good. The raspberry iced tea was also great.

Dietary restrictions: GF options”

“First time here. I thought it was a little weird they don’t accept cash. I would recommend the wood fired pizza! They also have a full bakery. The Cream cheese and Carmel apple Kringle were my favorites. I Will definitely be back!”
