“2nd visit. It was a quite night, the staff informed us that was due to ”spring break”. This restaurant has a warm, fun atmosphere. We were given a “tour” of the two main floor dining rooms and learned about the history of the building and Wausau itself buy the pictures hanging on the walls. The staff was attentive. Extensive wine list, bartender gave a quick lesson of Gins (differences between London dry and botanical) to one of our guests. With spring around the corner, I enjoyed the zucchini pasta.”

“Appetizers were super fresh and delicate. Hand rolls were large, fresh and taste amazing. Everything came out quick! Can't wait to go back!”

“The food and service was excellent. We had the pad thai with chicken. The portions were huge. You do not leave hungry. What made it even more incredible was that someone anonymously paid for our dinner. Thank you, Whoever you are! Your generosity was over the top. The waitress informed us that the anonymous person paid for the dinners of the entire restaurant. Just mind-blowing. We will definitely pay it forward!”

“The best cheesecakes hands down!! Very friendly service too!! 💗🥰”

“Our daughter took us in for coffee and breakfast burritos. Very good. Place would have also been popular back in the 60s/70s. Although the coffee would have been futuristic.”

“Sam's Pizza for the win. I walked in for my pick up today and was treated like family. I had not been there for a while and was greeted by name and handed my pizza before I could even get my wallet. They were also very busy but not busy enough to treat everyone there the same as they treated me. Of course the pizza and garlic bread were amazing. This place is a Wausau landmark for a reason. Thank you Sam's Pizza !!”

“What a cute place! The coffee was fantastic. The service was friendly. We were just traveling through. If I lived closer, I would go there often. Five stars from me!”

“Best bubble tea in town! Unique drinks, delicious mochi donuts, and flavorful food. Love how the drinks are sweet but refreshing and can taste variety of ingredients and not just sugar.”

“I always love coming here, the workers are always so nice and friendly and they serve the best coffee drinks in the area. Very good bakery items and cake pops too”

“If you have never eaten there before. You must try it. They have amazing food! Wow! My only regret is not trying their food sooner. 6th Street Filling Station gained 2 more customers today!”

“This place is a great little find! Happened upon it by chance, but I'm glad I did. The Gyro meat was tender, and the homemade Tzatziki sauce has a great flavor that doesn't overpower the rest of the gyro. The baklava has a really good flaky Philo dough, and the filling is nutty and not too sweet. Highly recommend this place. I'm looking to try the baba ghanoush next time I'm in town.”

“5 Stars – A Local Gem with a Heartwarming Atmosphere We’ve been to Blue Willow Cafe four times now for breakfast, and each visit just reinforces why we keep coming back. Even if the food wasn’t always perfect and they didn’t have best toffee cappuccino, the service is absolutely impeccable. The staff genuinely treats you like family—warm, attentive, and always smiling. It’s rare to find that kind of hospitality these days. This last visit was extra special because we finally got a booth! We joked that there’s a “three-visit minimum” before they grant you booth access, which only adds to the charm of the place. It’s little moments like that which make the experience memorable. No matter how your day starts, walking into Blue Willow Cafe just lifts your spirits. There’s something about the atmosphere—maybe it’s the cozy decor, maybe it’s the people—but it’s a guaranteed mood booster every time. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place that makes you feel good just by being there.”

“Friendly staff and great food. This was our first time here and we highly recommend!”

“KC was very careful to make a crust less pizza to fit the dietary needs of my guest. He was pleasant and particular. I will definitely order here again. Thank you!”

“Some family and I went out for a fish fry here. The drinks are reasonably priced and have a good solid pour. My pan-fried Walleye was really good. Two of the five food orders were not correct. One was missing the extra piece of fish, and one had beer battered that was supposed to be baked. The wait staff apologized and brought out the extra fish and offered some free drinks.”

“Home like atmosphere, very nice staff and great food!!!”

“Yasir provided perhaps the best customer service we have ever had. The food is always delicious. Thank you for a wonderful meal!”

“I have been coming to Angelo's since I was 13, now in my 60's. usually it's great but this day it looked over cooked and tasted over cooked, I mentioned it to the server, Renee and she argued with me that's the way they have always made it, I think not it seemed like she wanted to continue to argue. I'll come back but... I think it's worth the high price Thanks for coming back”

“What a lovely place!   The establishment is in a lovely historic building that has been meticulously restored and decorated with an artsy vibe.  The venue is spotless.  Our committee chose this location for a class reunion, and we could not have been happier. The owner was super accommodating.  The bar service was on point.   If you visit, do try a mojito.  The mint is grown on site by the owner, and what a difference it makes!”

“I had Lanzo as a server, he was very attentive and friendly. We had a mess up with the drinks and he fixed it professionally and kindly. He definitely added to the experience and made it great! Loved the cheese curds too!”

“Great place! Great people! Bartender was cool, friendly, did flare tricks & knew his stuff. We even ran into someone we haven't seen in a while. We were out of town & visiting. Definitely recommend!”

“Never disappointing, Fast And friendly very reasonably priced.”

“If you have a problem with La Taqueria you have a problem with me 😡 their food has been the highlight of many bad weeks, bad days. The food is exceptional, the customer service is one of a kind.”

“Mortchees food is simply some of the best in Wausau it is always made fresh and is always good”

“Jim’s Corner bar is a hidden gem with amazing chicken wings and a delicious Mushroom Swiss burger. The service is friendly and quick, making it a perfect stop after a day of skiing or snowboarding at Granite Peak. However, it's important to note that they only accept cash, so be sure to come prepared. The atmosphere is great for watching games and chilling out, and they serve fresh, well-made food until late hours. The hot wings are a standout with their crispy texture and spicy kick, perfect for heat enthusiasts. Despite the cash-only policy, this bar is definitely worth a visit for its tasty offerings and enjoyable dining experience.”

“Simple the best slice in the area. When you live by the slice, you don’t always have time for the whole pie. 🍕 Rocky’s delivers flavor and quality from walking in to enjoying your daily slice. The best.”

“Ate at the Wausau location twice last week (once dine in and once for takeout). Both times the food I ordered was amazing! Bread sticks were hot, workers were pleasant, even the nice young man (Trevor) who cooked our food came out to ask how our food was (that was the time we ordered dine in). Pumpkin cheesecake is AMAZEBALLS!! The pizza pasta I ordered for take out was also so good! If it’s been awhile since eating there, or had a bad experience in the past, give it another try please. They seem to be working hard to turn things around. Pictures are from my take out order.”

“The service, food, and atmosphere were excellent. The food was some of the best served in the wausau area. It's truly a gem. Highly recommend stopping in. Perch meal and baked cod were delicious, as were our appetizers, clam strips, and cheese curds.”

“best bubble tea i have ever had!”

“Have gotten 50lb rolled oats from them- and very thankful they can provide that for us, to make granola cheaply. It’s a good price, as long as paid for in cash, so not to pay the credit card fee they have, like many small businesses. I really love the layout to their store. Wish they’d be a little closer to get to, but thankful they’re not too far away also.?”

“my friends and I have gone to townies for the last couple years and we have never had a bad meal there!!! great food, great people, great atmosphere!!!”

“It's almost like two completely different bars. The outdoor patio with chairs and bag toss is nice when the weather is warm. While indoors is like a small town Wisconsin bar with bluecollar locals. Mainly a beer bar but it's very affordable.”

“Dietary restrictions: If allergies to milk and Peanuts don't recommend

Thanks for the laughs Nathan!”

I travel across the state for work every day and always try to frequent Culver’s (hard not to after working for them for many many many years through high school, college, and so on).

“Great food at good prices!”

“Great bar for wausau! I see lots of bad reviews from old employees.. boyfriends of ex employees.. ex patrons etc.. typical behavior from the ones causing the problems.. but now that the trash has taken itself out because management DOES care and won't stand for the behavior the business itself gets trashed.. only bar in the whole town worth going to! Dana is great and has been doing an amazing job the 20ish years she's been there! Highly recommend labor temple and the pizza is amazing!”

“When you think about a whole in the wall, this is the spot. Food is authentic. It is better than the other recommendations in the area. Service could be better. But, most authentic restaurants don’t have the best service. The food speaks for itself. It was a little bit warm when we visited. You just have to sweat through enjoying your meal. See pictures. I will visit again.”

“I ordered the most grotesque sandwich known to man and the kid behind the counter didn't bat an eye. I mean it, the sandwich had onions, turkey, tuna, you name it. Somehow the kid managed to put olives on that thing, I checked your menu twice. You do not sell olives. Where did he get them from??? Then asked them (begged) to drown it in mayonnaise and Ceasar. Perfect service for a perfectly horrendous sandwich. 10/10 service, left the kid a $20 tip (VIA PAYPAL).”

“Had a great lunch for the office from Lee’s Famous Recipe. Everyone loved it!”

“Once you've had an icecream coffee here, you'll never go back. There is no better way to enjoy a coffee. The donuts are usually fresh, if not a bit pricey as of late. I recommend trying the egg white breakfast sandwiches. Yum.”

“Rick is a good guy! Friendly atmosphere!! I would recommend!!!”

“Great variety of meats, vegetables, and sauces. Enjoy multiple trips through the buffet to find your favorites. I tried 4 different sauces and liked them all! They offer bottled beer and wine if you are interested. Free refills on soda. They have a soft serve machine to satisfy that sweet tooth.

Parking: Parking lot is shared between several businesses.

Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs available for use. Kids age 0-3 eat for free.”

“Being a mascot for this place is fun”

“First time ordering take out from here and food was good. Unfortunately the only miscommunication was asking if the Togo came with sauces and ended getting charged for even bigger tubes of sauces but its ok because I had sauce for the week haha. Only ordered tacos and the flavors were ok but will try something else from their menu.”

He was so apologetic for issues that wasn’t his fault and honestly it wasn’t anyone fault at Noodles. But he didn’t just make things right he went above what he needed to do! We are very thankful for someone with such amazing customer service! It’s hard to find people like that now a days! 10 starts if I could!!”

“We brought a large party in for a celebratory lunch and had ordered a cake from the bakery for the occasion. Everything was amazing, our server was friendly and attentive, our food was delicious and our big group was in and out in less than 90 minutes time.
