“First night here, was about a mile from my hotel and I needed to get my steps in. Walked in and there were only 2 other people in the bar, one of which was in deep explanation of how wild water is...so it's a regulars type of place.It's just a bar, but got a beer and the beef sandwich for 10.75, which in these days is unheard of. Great portion on the beef sandwich and the mustard is insanely good. It's just a dive bar with small menu of delicious bar food.“

“During a road trip, hunger struck after a night of late-night driving, leading me to discover Chick-A-Dee's Family Restaurant in a quaint town. I was promptly seated, and the friendly staff set the tone for what turned out to be a memorable breakfast experience.The restaurant was bustling with activity, reflecting its family-friendly atmosphere. Although the place was quite busy, the staff managed to seat me quickly. However, the anticipation built up as the food took a bit of time to arrive, understandable given the morning rush.As I settled in, I couldn't help but notice the lively family-oriented setting, with children scattered throughout the restaurant. While the presence of kids was expected in a family restaurant, the boisterous behavior of the youngsters in the booth behind me added an unexpected twist to the ambiance. Their enthusiasm took a mischievous turn, involving the launching of french fries and turning around on the booth. Additionally, the cacophony from loud iPads blaring music videos about "skibity toilets" became a persistent soundtrack, occasionally testing my patience.Fortunately, the arrival of the food shifted the focus back to the delightful breakfast awaiting me. The meal surpassed expectations, delivering a delicious and satisfying experience. The fair pricing and impeccable service further enhanced the overall positive impression, making it a perfect start to my day and road trip.In retrospect, while the exuberant antics of the neighboring kids added a unique touch to my visit, the standout quality of the food and the attentive service at Chick-A-Dee's Family Restaurant overshadowed any momentary disruptions. It served as a comforting and hearty breakfast stop, leaving me fueled and ready for the next leg of my journey.“

“When you stumble on one of the best local breakfast spots...

“Great local bar food. The Packer Backer (2 brat patties with kraut and cheese) is my favorite, the "kid" (21) loves the Black and Blue burger, and my wife loves the pesto grilled cheese. Honestly there are very few places where we all love at least one item on the menu. The waffle fries are always perfectly done, nice and crispy. Though they could time down the amount of salt they use on them just a little bit.“

Midwest Meals Health Food •
2145 Eastridge Center, Eau Claire

“I have been very happy with my experience! I am able to eat like a bodybuilder (or any macro balance I could ask for) without needing to sacrifice all flavor and my Sunday afternoon. I have consistently eaten a balanced diet all month thanks to Midwest Meals. I love that I only have to grab the food from my gym’s fridge. Unlike large meal prep brands like Factor, I’ve experienced NO quality control issues, with all of my food arriving in pristine condition. Additionally, the Midwest Meals storefront is convenient when I am looking for some variety in the middle of the week or when I didn’t order enough. 5/5“

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!

“It was good, but super busy. Didn't seem to have enough people working that day. No one was at the bar or the front desk. We were waiting for several minutes to be seated, even though there was no one in line ahead of us. We didn't see anyone who worked there for a while while we were waiting, and then they were in and out, serving tables. Once we were finally seated, we enjoyed the food, and even got to see an airplane take off. That was cool. Our daughter would love to see that. The fried pickles and the Flat bread were super good!“

“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!“

“This is a very fine place to eat. The staff are incredibly friendly and never make me feel like I’m doing the wrong thing. The food is always a banger, and the strawberry shakes are perfection. I only have two reasons why I took a star off. The first reason is that one day I went through the drive-through, and I looked like I had woken from a 10-year coma, and I saw someone I knew working. I was slightly mortified, but he just gave me my number, and I drove off. We have never acknowledged the moment, and I never plan to bring it up. Reason two: the most recent time I had gone here, I was extremely sick, and after I ate my food (which was very good, I might add), 45 minutes of my evening were spent on the toilet. After I washed my hands, I realized my sickness had seemed to go down. I was not sure if I should curse Culver’s for that or thank them. Overall, it is a very lovely place that the whole family can enjoy, and their sauces are sent from heaven.“

Tony went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed, that our guests with dietary restrictions were taken care of, and that above all my husband and I had a beautiful wedding day. I'd recommend Bijou catering to all of my friends, family, and acquaintances.We also love going to the tasting room/ restaurant. It's the perfect place for a nice date night out or a celebration, and I can guarantee it will be where we celebrate many anniversaries reflecting on the beautiful food Tony made for us on our wedding day.“

“On a lazy Sunday afternoon, I found myself idly gazing out of my window at the patchy clouds drifting across the sky. The distant chirping of birds mixed with the faint hum of a lawnmower next door, creating a tranquil atmosphere that seemed to invite daydreaming. As I sipped my lukewarm cup of tea, I contemplated the subtle variations in the shades of green on the leaves of the potted plants on my windowsill. It was a moment of simple serenity, where the world's big concerns were momentarily forgotten in favor of the gentle, unassuming beauty of the everyday. I just LOVED this place!“

They also had two highly rated wines at about $10 a glass, Colossal Reserva Red Blend and Stefano Massone Gavi. I definitely recommend.Update: I feel the food really feel off in the last few years.
