I've driven past this restaurant sooo many times. This past weekend was the day we walked through…read moretheir door. From the moment you walk in, the bar sets the tone--dark wood, warm lighting, friendly bartenders who make you feel like a regular even if it's your first time. Seriously, if I lived in Stevens Point, their bar would be my go-to day drinking hangout. I will note that they make a well made cocktail from their drink menu. Further, their brandy old fashioneds are perfect, and are sizeable. To start, the goat cheese bruschetta is a must‑order. Creamy, tangy goat cheese paired with perfectly toasted bread and a nice garlic topping. I don't even like goat cheese but, there were plenty good. For dinner, Michelle's has all the supper club with the surf and turf classics. The beer‑battered walleye is exactly what you'd hope for: crisp, flavorful, and somehow not greasy at all. If fish isn't your pick, the planked salmon with a sweet pecan topping to provide contrasting flavours and textures. All in all, Michelle's is everything you want from a Wisconsin supper club: welcoming vibes, great cocktails, knockout comfort food, and that timeless charm that keeps you coming back. They do lose a start because of service...it was so slow, and I don't quite understand why because there were a number of empty tables. The other curiosity that I would mention is that when we played the leftover salmon we left it on the plank. They asked for the plank bank to reuse? They're only good for a couple uses tops before the oils are gone...and that is not entirely sanitary...but that is just me perhaps. If you're in Stevens Point, hit this place up. It's worth it.

I usually do not leave reviews, but we were very disappointed with our service a few weeks ago. We…read morewere visiting friends in the area who had made a reservation for 5 people. We had our 7 month old daughter who they informed us upon arrival should have been included as a 6th person. We have never had this happen at a resteraunt and the hostess made it seem like a major inconvenience to them & almost did not seat us. The food was great, but we felt like we were walking on eggshells the whole experience.

I even tried to get the secret from the chef! Full salad bar that everyone craves when they go to a supper club! Huge portions! I must have had a pound of sautéed mushrooms and a whole onion on my steak. Great bartender too except I didn't get any pickled mushrooms for my old fashioned because they were out. Luckily I lived to see another day! Cute back room to watch a Brewer game too with a drink in hand. Please don't go here because I don't want to ever have to wait hours to get in

My wife and I went to the Black Otter for our anniversary. It was our first time there. When we…read morearrived we checked in and were given a number. We sat at the bar and ordered our first drink as we waited for our table. Before we were seated, our order was taken. I had the queen prime rib, my wife had the seafood platter. After a short wait, we were seated at our table and were invited to the salad bar. Unlike other supper clubs, there are servers at the salad bar and they give you whatever you like and as much as you like. I was served by a very young looking server, he was no more than 14 years old, but was courteous and trained well. After we sat back down at the table, our appetizer as well as the bread arrived. The cheese curds were excellent. Vey tasty. The salad bar was also very tasty and the vegetables were crisp and the soup was fantastic. Our meal arrived shortly after, by this time, my wife and I were staring at each other wondering if we had left any room for our meal...we did...slightly. The prime rib was phenomenal. Medium rare. Seasoned well. Very good. The seafood platter, was generous. Lots of fish. Perch, bluegill, walleye, haddock, shrimp, scallops, all very well prepared and my wife enjoyed the sampling of seafood. The prices were as expected. After drinks, appetizers and our meal, we left and paid for the meal and it was all around $100 or so. A good place for special occasions and if you are super hungry. We will be back.

I ordered cheese curds, catfish with red potatoes and salad bar. Cheese curds were crispy in the outside, buttery on the inside, and served with a homemade ranch that accompanied them perfectly! I was full after eating way too much salad so I took everything home, wondering if it would taste good reheated. Not to mention, it took about 30 minutes to get our food so we were just ready to be at home after working all week. We didn't expect the wait to be so long. The next day, I placed the fish in the air fryer and potatoes in the microwave. Potatoes needed butter and seasoning as they were dry and not much flavor. The fish...woah! Even reheated and crispy again from the air fryer, it was wonderful. I squeezed some fresh lemon on it and a little salt...wow! We'll go again but not plan on wanting to eat right away in case it takes as long to get our food again. If it's as good fresh as reheated, we may have finally found our favorite location for Friday fish fry.

The name of this restaurant is beyond fitting! The Cozy Kitchen is indeed a very cozy, homie, and…read moredare I say nostalgic kind of diner. The staff were as friendly as they can be and made us feel like regulars, regardless of it being our first time in. We visited for a late breakfast with multiple kids (4 years and younger). The staff kept all the adults caffeinated and went above and beyond to make sure the kids had a great experience! (Ie, making sure they had drinks, plenty of napkins, and ever some cookies after they ate) The food was all very good! The table got a verity of options and all plates were left empty. You can really tell that this dinner puts in effort with their food. They even offered numerous HOMEMADE baked goods like breads, pies, cakes and cookies that's to their on-site baker. I will be returning to cozy kitchen in the future whenever I am in town visiting family. I highly recommend you visit if you're looking for someplace cozy to eat.

Unfortunately our dinner experience was not good. We spent almost three hours at dinner waiting for missed drinks and missed food! Management please work with your servers. Educate them on the meals that are offered. Not knowing what is in a dish is ridiculous. Not telling us about the Friday fish fry (we found out after dinner). When a burger got missed on our order because of the server, have the kitchen rush on a burger instead of one person in our party of eight waiting 45 minutes for their burger while we all ate. Such a shame because our food was good. We just did not plan on sitting there for almost three hours! We wanted to have an after drink outside but it was too late. I worry for this place.
