Casa Mexicana

Awesome restaurant! The food is great and so are the prices. I eat there at least once a week but often times more than that. The service is very friendly and food arrives quickly.

Mike’s Smokehouse

With plenty to write home about, Mike's has the best BBQ in town. I've been a regular customer for about 15 years. Try the baked beans or Mike's spuds as a side.

Tokyo Japanese Restaurant

Tokyo may not have the table side performance chops you may expect if you've been to a Benihana style restaurant before but make no mistake the food is quite tasty every time . . . Also hands down the best grilled shrimp in town!

Duncan Creek Winebar and Grille

I went into Duncan Creek with nothing but positive news from others, and I came out even more impressed. It's a small establishment, making the experience feel intimate, but the design and artwork feels like you're in a large city. The wine selection is OK (you probably could find them all at Gordy's), but the food is fantastic. The menu doesn't have many options, so the picky eater might not dig it, but those into seafood, steak, and/or Italian will get along just fine. Every city should have one of these restaurants (lots of wine and fine dining for fancy occasions), and now, thankfully, Chippewa Falls does.

Tokyo Japanese Restaurant

Are you kidding me? Tokyo had to be a joke. The service was at its worse, took almost an hour for them to start cooking, seated with obnoxious people we didnt know, wish it was more private. As for the little cooking show I was not impressed with. It took forever and they served it little at a time, i was still starving by the end of the meal. I understand that Japanese food is light, but this was beyond bland! The only taste to the food was the soy sauce. There was not much of a variety to choose from. Maybe perhaps I'm asian so I'm critisizing so harsh on this resturant, but never again will I go to Tokyo. **tip. If going in to an Asain resturant and there is no Asians there, the resturant sucks. There were no asians when my family and I went. The bill came close to 100 dollars and for what? Not worth it, we left being dissapointed. Should have just ate at home, my husband could cook better japanese food then them. sorry to burst all of your bubbles, but this is definatley the worse resturant experience I've ever encountered.

Lucy's Delicatessen

Lucy's is very good -- totally agree with Shep. Really meaty sandwiches. This place is part of my Chippewa Valley awesome sandwich "quad" -- Lucy's, Nucleus/Racy's, Nelson Cheese Factory, and Grand Avenue Cafe.

Mancino’s Grinders and Pizza

One of our favorites. Their grinders are the best hot sandwiches in EC, the bread is perfect for a hot sandwich, kind of airy so it gets nicely crispy. Lots of varieties to choose from. Simple pasta dishes are tasty comfort food.

Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar

Can I give negative stars? I would concur with Janelle in her review, but the EC Applebee's is so regularly terrible I have finally given up all together. Terrible service, terrible food. I will still go to Applebee's in another city and would probably give it three stars otherwise. EC Applebee's gets negative stars.
