I was in town for work and this restaurant was recommended by someone local and did not disappoint…read more It's Korean (described as Korean fusion) and it's a great asset for the restaurant scene in Stevens Point. We ordered at the front and then took a seat. A Korean movie or show was showing in a screen in the wall behind us. There are Korean juices and drinks in the fridge for purchase with the meal. It was a random Tuesday night and the takeout business was brisk and the place was almost full inside. It isn't a huge place, with a few tables, some large bench/picnic type tables, and some high chairs (with no backs) and tables. (If there's one thing I can suggest - it's to have to some chairs with backs!) Our group of four ended up ordering different dishes and each was delicious per each person. I ordered Bulgogi, which delicious, and others ordered Mandu soup, Jobchae, and one more dish. The food was tasty and the atmosphere is casual. Really enjoyed the food and visiting here. Would definitely come again.

Added chili oil for an additional cost which only added a bit of a heat. Pork was meh, again, no flavor, not melt in your mouth. Would pass up on this place.

Everything tasted fresh and well-balanced, and you can tell care goes into each bowl. The wait was a bit longer than expected, but once the food arrived, it was easy to forget about it. Definitely worth trying if you're craving tasty, satisfying ramen and don't mind a little patience. There is metered parking outdoors that takes quarters and also has an app.

Finally came to Ototo. Wife & I for lunch on a Tuesday at noon. The service was excellent,…read moreserver/cook sat us immediately & there was only 2 other people in the restaurant. Ambiance is super chill. Open kitchen, music was the right volume. Started with the Pork Buns. Fantastic!! Wife loved her Thai Tea & Spicy Miso. I was a bit underwhelmed with the Classic Tonkatsu. The egg was incredible, but overall the ramen was just pretty good. Coming from Southern California my expectations are too high. So for Wisconsin this ramen is definitely good, as good as Bowl 91. Overall 9/10

The ramen was good but after the amazing chicken karaage, I was slightly underwhelmed - the naruto swirl was still cold, and the seasoning was slightly on the bland side - but hey we were in the middle of Wisconsin so I can't complain! Ambiance was great and service was great too, all in all I would recommend and would definitely come back one day!

Service- great Food -delicious…read more Ambiance and restaurant- woodsy and chill My friend told me all the food at PJ's is great, so I gave it a try! We ordered: Cheese curds Truffle tots Pjs burger w/ sweet potato fries Pjs burger w/ wood oven veggies Ny strip, w/ oven veggies Brussels sprouts Lemon blueberry salad Wood oven crisp Clafoutis She was right, all the food was really good! My favorite were the cheese curds because coating was crispy and well seasoned, and the Brussels sprouts because they were well seasoned and crunchy. I would definitely recommend PJ's and order from here again.

I am a first timer to Basil Cafe and wanted to share my experience. I moved here from the Bay Area…read moreand I love any type of Asian food. All my local friends recommended that I try Basil Cafe. And I did and it was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had in 40 years. I asked a friend if she had tried this cafe and she hadn't. FYI, I called around 7:15 prior to our arrival and asked what time they closed. He said come now since the kitchen closes at 8 and all orders have to be in before then. It was a Friday night, we arrived at the restaurant and were sat immediately. At 7:20ish the restaurant was still busy which we thought was a good sign. Our server greeted us with the menus and walked away. I didn't think anything of it until she returned to take our order. The initial impression was EXTREMELY uninviting and we should have left at that point. Her first words, "you know we close at 8" which we knew and were trying to hurry to be respectful of the chefs. We immediately ordered which was approximately 5 minutes after being sat. She asked if we wanted our food mild or spicy and then walked away. She did bring us water but never refilled until we were almost done with our meals. She even spilled water as she was pouring and not once to she say sorry or clean it up. Our food was delivered promptly by another server who at least had a smile. As we unfolded our napkins to eat, our server dropped the check and requested to flip it over when ready to pay. My guest looked at me in amazement and stated, "Wow we haven't even taken a bite." As we ate our meals, not once did she approach us to ask if we needed anything else or how the food was. I watched her interact with another table and she seemed to attend to their requests. I was in disbelief by the way she handled herself as a server. I just kept thinking, wow I'm actually paying money for this. We were never rude and remained polite even though her service was HORRIBLE. My guest looked at me and said, "I have lived her all my life and have never had this kind of experience at a restaurant." I was so disappointed about my choice of restaurant that I did not even finish my meal. I took maybe 2 bites and was done. Being that I barely touched my meal, most waitress would have asked if it was ok but not our server. "You want that boxed?" I was like "Yes Please" while thinking "hell yes so I can get out of here." We left within 40 minutes of our arrival so the kitchen had barely rung the closing bell. As soon as I got in my car, I immediately texted my friend who raved about your restaurant and advised "F that place, never again, I have never been treated so badly by a server." I did check the restaurant reviews after this and it spoke of the atmosphere, the friendly staff, the food, and the drinks. Well I wish I could have experienced that but no! I contemplated writing this review since it usually goes nowhere so I spoked to my friends who have visited your establishment and those who have not. The friends who have visited were very disappointed and others stated, "they would not be dining there". They all came to the same conclusion to share so if anyone is trying to figure out whether Panda Express or Basil Cafe, the Panda would be my first choice after this. If I could give you a ZERO star I would but 1 star it is since that is my only option. I will say the food was good so thanks to the chef. But I rather dine at a restaurant with crappy food with an exceptional server than the opposite. I did give her a tip even though she did not deserve it. Hopefully she shares her tips with the chef since they did all the work.

I have heard about Basil Café for a while and finally checked it out with a few friends just before…read moreChristmas. We all shared the bang bang broccoli. Oh my goodness, sooo good. I could use the bang bang broccoli as an entrée. I ordered the entrée feature for this season. I believe it was called Guay Tiew. Had beef bone and a meatball for the protein. It was definitely good but it was a lacking some flavor. I want to visit again soon. Staff was fantastic.

Appetizers were bland and clearly frozen that was rewarmed. Only the chicken was the best option out of the pu pu platter. Miso soup had no flavor. Sushi was okay, not the most cleanly wrapped or tight. Did easily fall apart. Otherwise proteins were fresh, no one got sick. We will be back to try other sushi dishes before making our final call on this. We normally go to the other sushi location in town which so far is much better, but again, will give this location one more try before saying otherwise. Happy eating!
