Step back in time to when going out for dinner meant something really special. From the decor to the jazz music, Wildfire has the style and warmth that makes it perfect for celebrating with friends or a quiet evening for two. The extensive menu features broiled steaks and chops, wood-roasted seafood and roasted meats, all prepared in an open kitchen. Signature dishes include Horseradish Crusted Filet Mignon, Macadamia Nut Crusted Halibut, Wildfire Chopped Salad and Cedar Planked Salmon. So order a signature martini or one of our many wines by the glass, then sit back and enjoy the 1940s supper club experience of Wildfire.

    Unfortunately our experience was lousy. The food was just OK and the service was terrible. The management team stepped up to try to make it right but it pretty much ruined our family Christmas dinner. I will never go back.

    The food was okay, sadly the portions were smaller than last time I was here . I only seen my server Johnathan twice !! When he took my order and then when I paid the bill, it was really not worth my 200 dollars. I don’t think I will be returning sadly, and I use to like this restaurant smh

    Had a reservation for 5 people at 8:00 to celebrate my 13 yr olds bday. 40 mins in we still had not received our cocktails or starters. It was apparent they were understaffed, and as someone in the industry I was patient longer than most would be. I spoke to the manager who was frazzled and apologized. He did give us a fair discount for the troubles, but the server was less than apologetic. Never said anything, and acted as if we were putting him out by having to serve us. Asked who’s birthday it was and dropped the dessert in front of my son, not saying anything else. Never returned to check on us after getting our food etc. Terrible service throughout.

    The food was very good, but the service was very slow. Luckily, we weren't in a hurry, because it took 3 hours to complete our dinner!

    As always food was excellent. Waiter was slow and we never got wine from the bar because the bar was so backed up. Need to work on service.

    We recently dined at Wildfire and had an enjoyable experience. The drinks were fantastic—each one was well-crafted and delicious. It seemed like the bar was a bit understaffed, as we waited a significant amount of time for our two drinks on a Saturday evening with what appeared to only have 1 bar tender making orders for the whole restaurant.. On a positive note, our waiter was exceptional. He was very attentive and knowledgeable, providing great recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Overall, while there were some delays at the bar, the quality of the drinks and the attentive service made for a pleasant dining experience.
