I got some type of spinach pesto with bright rainbow cherry tomatoes and it was delciious. Seemed like the pasta was house made and it was excellent. Pretty pricey so I havne't gone back many times but when I did go it was enjoyable! Only con about ambiance was that their outdoor seating on the sidewalk is at a slant and they don't have anything to even it out so it kinda feels like you're tilting over the whole time.

Why fix something simple when it ain't broken? Sometimes places can fall into the trap of trying to do too much. Prairie Fire is one of the few that can walk that tightrope, offering a raw bar, pizzas, pastas, a burger, seafood, and more. But everything we tried was delicious. I had an eye on so much on the menu but we ultimately went with the razor clam ceviche from the raw bar, a pepperoni pizza, the Maine lobster ravioli, and the mushroom toast (a crowd favorite). My favorites were the ceviche and the mushroom toast - do not skip it. The mushrooms are cooked perfectly and they slather a layer of parmesan aioli on the bread that cooks into it. Amazing. One of my best bites of 2025. Pepperoni pizza was pretty good but I still prefer the Neapolitan style. Have to come back to try so many other things - the Maine uni toast, the burger, the trout. The sourdough ice cream was a super unique dessert. They take the leftover butts of loaves and soak it in milk/cream and the result is almost like a less sweet salted caramel. Loved the textural addition of the poached pear. We were lucky to come around 5 on a weekend evening and snag some of the remaining bar seats but when we left, the place was completely full. Come early or get a reservation! Parking can be tough in Coolidge Corner; I recommend seeing if you can get a spot in Webster parking lot at the back of the restaurant.

The atmosphere is warm and…read moreinviting with plenty of bar seating and tables that give it that homey neighborhood feel you don't always find anymore. We opted to sit at the bar in front of the wood-fired oven, which turned out to be a great call. Watching the kitchen work was half the fun with pizzas and dishes coming together right in front of us. The drinks menu is impressive too, with a large selection of beers on tap plus wine, cocktails, and mocktails. For food, we kept it simple and shared our way through the menu. The Farm Green salad was crisp and fresh, pa perfect starter. Then came the asparagus, roasted in the wood-fired oven and served with a sauce that elevated the whole dish. We finished with one of their wood-fired pizzas, and it did not disappoint. Everything had that subtle smoky char you only get from a real oven. Service was excellent from start to finish. If you're looking for a spot that feels like a neighborhood staple with food that actually delivers, this is it.

Let me offer my expert opinion I ordered a burger-MW and had a Weinstephaner draft. The burger was cooked perfectly, just a smidge pink centre juicy as hell, and perfectly seasoned. But complementing that is kind of like saying you did your job, which doesn't say much. It was the flavour. Let me tell you this burger was absolutely delicious. All of the ingredients were clearly fresh, crisp, to date, and treated with respect. With what I believe are 30 draft beers... they had what I would call the perfect variety of drafts. UnFortunately, they're lacking a little in spirits. An easy fix. But I'm sure the wonderful bartender that was there will up their game in due time, Definitely worth the visit and definitely worth becoming a regular. -Chef Serge

I went for my graduation dinner, and they had a hand written card at the table waiting for me to wish me congratulations. To start, we had the focaccia bread to share and clam chowder, so delicious. Best clam chowder I've had, and it had whole clams in it. For mains, we had pasta bolognese, salmon, and the green apple chicken. The chicken was the juiciest I've ever had, the salmon was cooked to perfection, and the pasta was so flavorful. The presentation was great as well. Vanessa was our server, and she was so kind, helpful, and attentive. After seeing another table get the oysters, we asked the restaurant manger, Dan, what they ordered. After explaining it to us, I told him I never had oysters so he gave us the appetizer for free to try!

The king your grandma had and left to you and now stored away. The crowd can be a little depressing some nights as mostly Hilton guests from Dana Farber and Brigham Children's hospital. Bandaged or here for chemo and out of town stories. The menu is very expensive. And they don't have a decent glass of champagne. However the chef is creative and dishes are on the healthier nouveau cuisine side. The lemon sole with potatoe gratin's is my recent fav. Small pizzas are perfect thin and crispy. Avoid the Hawaiian pizza because the soggy ham is placed under the cheese and pineapple, instead of being caramelized and curly on top. Do not order the popovers, dry and dark brown always a disappointment. Help varies and perhaps too young seeming to discuss themselves therapy-like rather than engaging talk about customers. Maybe it's the hotel one time customers that causes the lack of local pub vibe. Too bad. If they would drop prices and recognize this years long regular customer it would be a five star review.
