Crowned as the No.1 venue for a rehearsal dinner for the first time, Hickory Hills Golf Course (E4080 Hickory Road, Eau Claire) clearly isn’t just known for its gorgeous course, but also for its excellent indoor venue options and variety of amenities. Houligans Steak & Seafood Pub (415 S. Barstow St., Eau Claire) is a longtime local staple for a reason: From friendly customer service and a classy vibe to its mouthwatering menu, you can’t go wrong. Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse (4751 Owen Ayres Court, Eau Claire), making its top three debut at No. 3, has a luxurious atmosphere and top-notch menu. — McKenna Scherer
