Tine & Cellar

For what Tine & Cellar aims (and claims) to be, I think they have earned their five stars. Put this restaurant in Brooklyn and they would do stellar, but in Wausau, next to a strip malls worth of cheap eats and hair cuts, it feels a bit over priced - but traffic says many people don't mind, so I'll continue this review not speaking from my current income bracket. The atmosphere is upbeat but calm and with enough sophistication to promise an enjoyable experience for various diners: dates or families, friends or even solo, you'd be comfortable here. We interacted with just one server after seating and they were excellent, good people skills and knew just how much to interact. Service was quick and accurate. While I found drinks small, I don't typically order drinks out. They were much enjoyed by my fellow diners. Truffle fries were light on truffle which I prefer, and crispy. Dinner options are limited but varied enough. We had three different plates which were all well enjoyed, with little leftover. If you are looking for massive plates with take home at a steal, try the chains nearby, but if you are looking to enjoy some elevated dining and relax a bit, Tine & Cellar should be on your list.

Tasted like everything had the same seasoning-black pepper and salt. Overall food was good but a little overpriced. The jam they had on most the menu options was surprisingly tasty on their pork chop. Drinks were pretty good as well. Charcuterie board items were pretty small and expensive for the amount we got.

Phenomenal customer service, the whitefish dip is to die for, over 100 beers to pick and not one of them was bad!! The staff is so willing to help guide you in a style of choice and is well versed on everything menu wise!! Our fave stop during our vacation so far!! Would definitely rate more than 5 stars if I could!

This is the Brunch Edition (open to 1:30). Here’s that thang, I know people can make their own rules but isn’t brunch normally 10-12? Tine’s brunch runs until 1:30pm which, is kinda of different. We were slightly surprised that schedule as we were expecting lunch. I’m gonna be honest, the fries were hands down the best thing that we got. It was well seasoned, crispy, crunchy, the sauce added creaminess and the green onions helped cut through the grease. For $8, you get 3-4 peoples worth. I’m not kidding, you get a LOT. Order one unless you want leftovers. Keeping it 💯, I don’t even want to review the rest of the food. Besides the fries, everything else was forgettable. I’m just gonna bullet this because everything else isn’t worth it. Bacon burrito - Smokey is how I’d describe this, you get smoke tasting sauce, with crunchy smoke and chewy smoke. The entire thing tasted like smoke. Mushroom Brie - decent, savory and nice seasoning. Pork belly Benedict- I’m not a hollandaise expert by any means but this dish lacked salt. Salt and pepper probably could’ve saved the dish because all you tasted was a bland sauce. Pork belly wasn’t salty enough and it didn’t elevate or complement the English muffins, eggs or sauce. Ukrainian pancakes - meh, shredded potato pancake with crème fresh fresh at one end and apple butter at the other. Nothing interesting besides the apple butter. This is the third time I’ve here I’ve always left thinking, man, why are the fries so darn good and everything else so-so?

The food was ok. Ordered the cheese curds, jagerschnitzel and steak. Had both deserts - crème brûlée and cheesecake. Wait staff was inexperienced- basically would hand our food to us when ready but didn’t check in on us and remember that we were celebrating our 16th anniversary on the way out. We were seated staring next to a wall. The dining experience was basic, and the table was wobbly. Would not recommend to others looking to celebrate a special event. This is more your basic sit down and dine restaurant.
