    Went to Granite Peak for skiing on a weekend and had dinner at this restaurant. This is at the Hilton Garden Hotel. This is a very high class restaurant and the service was excellent. They were able to give us a private room for our large group. They had excellent cocktails and the food was delicious. Several appetizers we had were all excellent. One of the best Hilton garden restaurants we have been to.

    Igloos - book a reservation - As of 2024, $100 deposit and $150 minimum spend required - SO MUCH FUN!!!

    We had an incredible igloo experience as well as pre-dinner cocktails at the bar. Hosts, bartenders, and our server were all very personable and we had awesome customer service! We felt very taken care of and welcome! Cocktails are craft made and top-notch! The igloo experience is fantastic - even your own speaker for the table to curate tunes! Food was fabulous as well - everything we ordered was perfect! Love the flatbreads! Thanks for an incredible experience- we made great memories! This is a big city experience in a small town - totally impressed!

    Van Acre is a restaurant within the Hilton Garden in. There is ample parking and plenty of seating inside, at the bar, and they even have a nice patio for the warmer weather. I visited twice recently when I was home visiting Wausau for a week. The first time was for dinner. Our server was very kind, even bringing us a pitcher of sparkling water when we both ordered it, so we could have more if needed. The drinks here are pretty solid & look really nice. I got the Garden Gimlet as I really love celery and cucumber. It was very refreshing. The Crispy Brussels Sprouts were fantastic. I got the Salmon medium rare which was cooked to perfection. I really enjoyed the flavors of the smoked beet mousse, cabbage and saffron shiitake pearled couscous. This plate was very good. The 2nd night I went back just for drinks. We had a great time and I enjoyed Nutty Sidecar & a glass of wine. The food here is really good and the service is as well. I think this might be my favorite place to dine in Wausau.

    The filet with the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. Lions mane mushrooms were a welcome twist.

    Stayed here on business with a coworker, and ate both dinner and breakfast. Both were fantastic. The service was so friendly, from absolutely everyone I was in contact with from both the hotel and restaurant. My coworker stays up here about 1x a week and refuses to stay anywhere else, and regularly brings clients here. The price and quality of the food is stellar, and the whole hotel and restaurant are gorgeous. Outdoor seating options as well if the weather is cooperative. I would HIGHLY reccomend this restaurant as a stop, for a drink, food, or full stay! If I am in the area it's a for sure stop. Lots of seating options, from tables, to cozy booths, outside, comfy bar & high tops, and I hear they even have outdoor igloo/tent options in the winter.

    This restaurant is inside the Hilton Inn. I ordered the Angus Ribeye. It was delicious! I did wished there was a but more veggies on the side. Pricey but you're paying for quality. Service was great. Everyone was super friendly.

    This is a nice restaurant inside the Hilton Garden hotel. It has a conference room too for work dinners. Food is good although it's on the heartier side. I had the Van Acre chip salad which was doused in creamy dressing and bites of sausage. I felt like I was eating a creamed salad! Main course was salmon with polenta. The portion is very generous and the salmon was perfectly grilled. However, the polenta tasted very heavy. Loved the S'mores cake! Overall, this place would be good for a nice evening out if you like hearty dishes.

    The best breakfast with the most quality ingredients I have found at a restaurant.

    I have never had a better breakfast anywhere and breakfast is my favorite meal. I would highly recommend this place for breakfast. I did not have a lunch or dinner here. Quality, real butter, Nueske bacon, eggs cooked the way you order them. Makes me want their breakfast right now! If you are in Wausau, WI and it's breakfast time...go now!

    Tomahawk Pork Chop is like no other. An absolute must. Best ever!

    Luke was our server and was the best service we had in a very long time. Knowledgeable and attentive. Food recommendations were on point. Thank you for a great experience!

    We went here for a family dinner and could not be happier with the decision. Amazing food, great service, and l wonderful atmosphere. The flavors are unique but bold. Our waitress was amazing. We will be going back.

    Different and great menu. We've went to the igloos the last two winters with friends (10/10!)

    we had a large party last minute. They accommodated us within a few minutes. The entire staff was…read morefriendly and cheerful, and prompt and professional. The food was exceptional and quickly served. They went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. It was a fun atmosphere, The even had a putt putt game for prizes that was entertainment for our family as well. Highly recommend this location the staff in this restaurant.

    As soon as me and my family walked inside there was a bit of a wait to get seated, but it's worth…read moreit. When we got seated my dad ordered us appetizers- fried pickles and cheese curds (the original kind). They were so good and the cheese in the cheese curds had a nice cheese pull. For the main part of my meal I ordered lemonade (which was okay, but could be a little sweeter), the cheese curd cheeseburger, along with hand cut fries for the side. My brother got a plain cheeseburger with ketchup and a side of fries; and my dad got the jalapeno cheddar burger and pub fries. Everything was fantastic and so delicious! We ate until we were stuffed. The waitress was super kind and came to our table every few minutes asking if everything was tasting good or if we needed anything. We tipped her good for her outstanding service. I was there for the first time, so it was an amazing experience for me, and my dad and brother had already gone there a few times, but still enjoyed it! I added pictures to the review, but they have some bites taken out of them because they were too delicious to not eat immediately!
