Best salads and fries in PDX! Service is always friendly and outdoor seating is comfortable and quiet. But it's the food that keeps me coming back year after year. All three locations are wonderful but this one offers more space and peace than the other locations. read more

Fire On The Mountain - Sitting on the patio on a perfect summer day - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I visited Fire on the Mountain yesterday with my family for the first time, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. I ordered the 9-piece wings and fries combo along with the barbecue nachos. We waited about 30 minutes for our food, only for my order to arrive without the fries. I then waited another 30 minutes before finally getting assistance from an employee. When another employee came over to address the issue, the interaction felt very rude and unprofessional. I had clearly stated my order twice because I had heard that orders could sometimes be mixed up at this location, yet I was still told that the fries were never entered and was even asked to pay for them again, despite already being charged for them on my receipt. Unfortunately, the long wait wasn't just an issue with my order. Everyone in my family waited at least 30 minutes for their food, and my grandma was the last person served. When her wings finally arrived, she found that they were cold on the inside and was understandably very unhappy with the experience. I understand that restaurants can get extremely busy, and I work in an emergency-service environment myself, so I completely understand being under pressure. However, being busy shouldn't mean customers are treated with an attitude or made to feel like they're an inconvenience. This was our first time trying Fire on the Mountain, and unfortunately, the service and overall experience left a very bad impression on my family. I really wanted to give this place a chance, but based on this visit, I wouldn't recommend this particular location. read more

The mandarin chicken salad was delicious. Great atmosphere which was delightful for someone who wears hearing aids and struggles with restaurant noise. The acoustics in the natural wood filled dining room really helped. The service was very good as well. read more

Wings were excellent! Onion rings were awesome too! Service was fast and friendly even though you order at the counter. Super nice employees! Cool decor and great outside seating. Will definitely go back! read more

Out of the ³ locations, this FOTM Fremont is the most well-rounded for all ~ lots of indoor & outdoor seating, sports bar section for TV viewing, small parking lot that gets filled real fast. Be sure to grab the restroom handle with a paper towel; not a visually clean experience with the throne and sink. Counter order & self serve water and napkins. Do not think about salad ~ wilted & old, picked out half the greens. Not enough dressing even for half. Happy hour is best here for half price peace with grease. read more

Fire On The Mountain - Cilantro Lime ;) - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We loved FOTM when we lived nearby. It was a must-visit when we recently came to town. This location was our favorite. There is plenty of seating, it's clean, and family friendly. The food is great! The wings are our absolute favorite! We have yet to find a wing place to take its place. I love being able to buy fresh jars of sauce to take home. I appreciate that the kids meals come out ASAP! The service is mid. You order at the counter and are given a table number. Everything else is self service: drinks, to go containers, etc. It is hard to justify a tip when we are doing everything, besides bringing out the food, ourselves. read more

I've driven past fire on the mountain so many times and thought, I should stop here sometime. Yesterday I finally did. It was a really great experience for lunch even on a very hot day. The interior of the restaurant was really quite nice looking and very comfortable. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I loved the buffalo blue cheese chicken salad I got and the two different IPAs I had were also both excellent. We sat outside in the shade and had a great time. It's a very approachable spot that delivers the goods. Nothing overly fancy or trying too hard, but a solid experience. Glad I finally tried it! read more

Fire On The Mountain - Buffalo Chicken Salad - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Another great experience at fire on the Mountain for their dollar vegan wing special that they have. This time I got the nuggets as well as the wings and I got them tossed in barbecue sauce with vegan ranch and they always taste the same and they're always cooked to perfection. I'm really loving these dollar vegan wing Mondays. read more

Wings are so sad and dry which made me disappointed because I thought wings were their thing :( Took a while to come out as well

I got to FOM at 11 am on a Sunday not busy at all. I ordered 9 wing meal. It took 25 minutes to get to me with almost no one in the restaurant and portions were very small- a 9 wing order is actually only 4-5 actual whole wings - they count a half wing as 1. It was $20 for 9 half wing pieces with nothing else but a tiny slice of celery. First time trying this place and very disappointed. Not worth what I got! If you're looking for a filling meal with quicker ready time try somewhere else. read more

Solid wings. All come wet with a crunchy texture. Thai peanut is a nice sweet and savory sauce while the medium buffalo is a classic that gets the job done. Plenty of space to a watch a ball game. Will be back for the other sauces. read more

I've viseted the other two locations of Fire on the Mountain many times in the past, and aside from a few favorite menu items, nothing really stood out as extraordinary to me. However, I have to say I've had some really great experiences at the Fremont location in the last few years. I live nearby and tend to frequent this location more often than others. I've met with clients for drinks on the patio in the summer, and celebrated a few of my friends' birthday parties in the upper balcony seating area as well. The staff really go out of their way to support customers, whatever their reason for visiting. I've always felt like a VIP at this location, and really appreciate the time and energy staff put into making customers feel welcome. There's a decent sized parking lot in front, which is rare for many businesses on Fremont. The restaurant is located on a busy busline for those who use public transport. And on nice days, visitors will find plenty of outdoor seating in a private, fenced off area out back. My go-to orders here are Jamaican Jerk boneless chicken with a side of tots - only on cheat days! Also, the the pork nachos are phenomenal... be sure to check them out if you like pork. The meat is plentiful, tender, juicy, and oh, so delicious! read more

The sweet potato fries could've been a little bit crispy, but overall pretty good. Wings were very good. It totaled about $40 and I had a discount because it was happy hour on the wings. It seemed a little pricey, but it was a place I would eat at read more

Came back for the 20 for $20 deal and was not disappointed! Buffalo and the sweet BBQ hit to perfection but had to try their flavor of the month, el guapo...they warned us about the heat but holy cow, that spice lingered for a minute. Super good, but spicy as all hell. Will be back for more wings read more

Fire On The Mountain - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Visited this location a few days ago. The wings were decent but there are definitely better options for delicious wings in Portland. Staff were incredibly warm and professional. Overall, the service was excellent but we did wait quite a while for our order. I'd try a few more wing joints before returning here. read more

I would just like the preface that the wings...fantastic. However, the service not so great. We waited 15 minutes in line just for us to order and then the cashier says "are you sure you want your order? it'll be a 45 minute wait." ofc we said that's totally fine! in the back of my head i thought that's actually not fine but im too introverted so actually say what i was thinking. respect peoples time!!! pls tell me before i stand in line that it will take that long :( read more

Fire On The Mountain - chikn - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Giving this visit three stars we went on a day where you could get 20 wings for 20 bucks and the wings were tasty but they were very lean. I'm used to a more meteor chicken wing. The sauces were on point as usual. We also ordered a Chinese salad that was ver basic for the price. It did not have crunchy noodles on it, as you usually get at a restaurant ~ won't order that one again. Service was friendly but lean. read more

The wings were pretty small in size and flavor was just ok. Kind of pricey for what you get.

The day before we visited while in an Uber, we passed Fire on the Mountain and our driver recommended the wings. I had a memory of the name and realized I got to try their beer years ago at a brew fest and liked it so we made an effort to come back and were glad we did. After a long day of hiking and other breweries, Fire on the Mountain ended up being the last brewery visit of our trip together. Fire on the Mountain has a number of locations in the Portland area. What makes them special is the combination of house brewed beer and chicken wings. The restaurant is simple: order at the counter, grab a table, and they'll bring it to you. We sat at a cozy booth next to big windows and enjoyed the evening. I ordered the buffalo chicken salad with blue cheese; friends mostly had wings akin to our days in college from the local wing shop. Their sauces were flavorful, and the food messy, just like we like it. I was a little disappointed they didn't offer flight sizes of their beer - I guess the business model just works better for full pints to go with the chicken. I loved my single beer, an IPA. It was a fun place with lots of families. We enjoyed our time and food here - I look forward to another visit in the future. read more

First time here after having always heard about this place. Was in the area and passed them and had to give it a try. This is legit wings and fries for sure and a great blue cheese dressing too. Had the buffalo sauce medium and the Thai peanut on other half of wings. Oh... so good! I'll be back to try them again. read more

Fire On The Mountain - 12 Wings - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Was testing this restaurants, for I keep reading reviews from people I know. For, my plan was to bring my group here for lunch, one day. We found a seat for two, and it was already filled, and noisy. But, we haven't been here before, and there was no sign that says: Please Wait to be Seated. So, we just helped ourselves to a seat. We didn't know, we need to order FIRST. We can not reserve seats, is what the staff told us, once they saw us go in & seat ourselves. We ordered a house salad, and picked Sesame Ginger Dressing. We both liked the flavor, and the salad was fresh, but the leaves were too long, and being the neat-freak eater we are, we couldn't find or wait for a staff to give us a knife, until we're 90% done. We also ordered 5 plain chicken tenders, but hubby was only able to eat 4. Took one home. The tenders came with 4 different dipping sauces. He liked 3 of them but not the medium buffalo sauce. Too hot of our taste! We also ordered Chicken Wrap with Mild Sauce. The first bite I had, was too hot, I was assuming, they only put it in the center of the wrap. Only then, I thought . . . this is not the place to bring picky-eaters, specially my grandchildren, who like me, hated anything spicy! The restroom was clean, but well worn (seen a lot of use). The servers were all very friendly. DYK: the best part of our meal was the FRIES! This is something everyone would agree on, and I asked the staff what's in the fries: Sugar & Salt! Whaaaat? Now you know! Negatives: Took too long for our food to arrive, but the restaurant was very busy, it was Saturday. Not for groups! They don't take reservations! read more

Heard great things, I wasn't impressed. Glad I got to try it out for myself, but probably won't be back. Wings are very small, maybe that's just me being used to genetically modified chicken though!! Sauce flavors were mid, highlight was the fried twinkie and the staff (very friendly) read more

Finally tried this place out after having it on my bucket list for a few months and it was well worth going. We ended up getting more pieces than what we ordered which was really nice. Staff was friendly. It was busy so a bit of a wait for food but our appetizer was big and came out pretty quickly read more

If ya want wings! This is the place! We decided it was a wing sort of day. My daughter wife and I decided let's hit up FOTM!!! So we set out as usual. No wait, Sat is right away! We ordered standard Honey BBQ, Spicy Peanut and the Mild & Flavor of the month was a Lemon Pepper. Absolutely delicious! My favorite is the Spicy Peanut and if you've never been you have to come and take a bite! You won't regret it. They have excellent Beer on tap for choices as well. I'm not a big drinker but the options are really open and have a great selection. So if you're wanting some delicious wings, fries and burgers! FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN is the place to curb that craving. read more

Just OK. I ordered a buffalo chicken salad and they served it with jerk sauce.the Jerk sauce wasn't bad but it tasted odd with blue cheese. At least my vegan eating son enjoyed his boneless vegan wings. read more

Went for wings after my son and my grandsons soccer game. We decided to order a mix of wings. Wings were decent, the mild sauce did have a little kick to it and was fine with me by too much for my 9 year old grandson. Had a couple and took the rest home. Would I go back, hmmm maybe. read more

fire on the mountain has the best bbq sauce ever! i love coming here during the day for chicken strips and garlic knots. service can be a little slow but the friendly staff and tasty snacks are worth the wait. read more

The place always brings the heat! The wings are very good but on a few occasions they've been very small. My son absolutely loves their El Jeffe pizza and the salads are strong as well. More often a hit but on rare occasion could be a miss read more

These wings are next-level! I get them dry with the sauce on the side--super crispy, juicy, and just right. The sauces are amazing--El Jefe brings the heat, and Raspberry Habanero is a sweet, spicy dream. And don't sleep on the tots--they're crispy perfection, especially when you dunk them in that sauce. Honestly, every bite is a win! read more

Really like this location! The pizza is fantastic and the fries are much better than the Burnside location(not burned-yay!). Only reason I removed a star is that they require the bar to service any alcoholic drinks and even when the place is empty, you can wait for a very long time for even one beer. Also, during the Summer anyway, there are a lot of flies to combat. Only other thing is that they definitely scrimp on the wing sauce. Sometimes barely any on the wings at all. read more

Great food and beer. Staff was great as well. Always a stop on my list when visiting the Portland area for work! read more

I have been here many times and never left a review, so now is the time. Definitely the best wings around and this is purely based on the unique and great flavors they have. They also forgot a couple of our wings and gave us 5 extra ones in the end as an apology. I don't go as much as I would like because they are so far away from where I live, but I always am impressed when I have it. read more

I was a naysayer on chicken wings prior, but FOTM changed my life. That was 10+ years ago. The chicken wing flavors they have are delicious. I tend to go for the Jamaican Jerk. Service was absolutely amazing. It's best to get there early as it can get busy. The only thing I have a problem with is the pricing for the chicken wings. A basket of 12 skinny chicken wings being almost $18 was a little surprising. read more

It's been a minute since visiting this spot but I'm glad I came back! Ordered take out using their online system - it was easy, fast, and food was ready early. 9pc wing lunch special - raspberry habanero and BBQ flavors with fries and a fruit punch. A lot of great food for under $15! Wings were juicy and had tons of flavor, fries were okay. Pretzel w/ queso - the queso was thin and didn't "stick" to the pretzel when dunking. The pretzel was pretty hard too ... not my favorite but I ate it all. Small parking lot, should have a pick up parking spot. read more

Came here with my husband for dinner. Service is definitely not your typical restaurant service. There's an Asian guy who works the bar that would be asked a question, but wouldn't look at you. We needed something & asked if he worked there (since they're dressed in normal clothes.) he said "yep" & kept on walking by. He didn't even look at us or ask if we needed anything. It pissed me off so bad. Other than that we were only asked once by someone else if everything was going good. The food was okay. Pretty fresh, but we only had their wings & onion rings. The place was super packed. Lots of seating. read more

FOTM used to be our happy place. The food quality and flavor were outstanding, the burgers were worth a drive across town, the staff were incredible. Wwwwwoooowwww have things changed. First, no more burgers. Disappointing but not a deal breaker. But so many of the stellar staff are gone, the last three times we went my chicken was so dry it was nearly inedible. Still we support local businesses and kept trying. But the last time (which was, after 8 devoted years even during Covid, the last time) the music was so ear splitting loud we couldn't hear one another at the same table. I asked the manager if he could just take it down a hair. It was just over the line into abusively loud. He mocked me, laughed at me and told me the song was just loud and just forwarded to the next oppressively ear-splitting song. There weren't many patrons, there was nothing buffering that onslaught and he didn't care how unhappy his customers might be, outwardly hostile when asked to just be reasonable. Understand I was a front and center, mosh-pit loving punk. I'm not a delicate flower who can't deal with loud music. But I had noise reducing earbuds in and still felt like I was being tortured. In a time when getting butts in seats is crucial to the survival of a business while this country is in a massive recession, this ego -tripping, pettiness seemed an odd flex. But okay... having customers is inconvenient to your listening pleasures? Do without us and the countless people we've flooded to your doors with glowing recommendation. Disappointed. read more

Three piece chicken tenders. Barbecue sauce. No fries. Awful. More batter than chicken. Save $2. Get a five piece at Carl's, Jr. so much tastier. More chicken than batter. read more

Fire on the Mountain has quickly become my go to spot when I visit PDX. I'm obsessed! As a creature of habit, I always get their sauce drenched tenders or salads and wowwwww. I've tried all my family or friends food each time we go, incredible sandwhiches and wings. Service is always friendly and pretty quick. The vibe is warm and inviting, like you're just among friends. Highly recommend checking out FOTM and grabbing some delicious wings while in Portland. read more

I'm giving them four stars because I don't even believe in yelp reviews. I'm honestly just warning people that these wings are NOT what they once were. Hopefully management along with the head chef, will soon realize the wings are embarrassing and wouldn't even leave the kitchen in my restaurant. The sauces here are TOP tier. I will give them that! We got our sauces on side so we could have different options, this was a mistake because it made the wings look even less edible. I know cost is high on wings as of the last few years, but these didn't even look like they came from a chicken, they were so small and overcooked. I'm honestly hoping this is useful information coming from a restaurant manager of many years. I'll be back for the salad, garlic knots, amazing nachos and tasty sauces! read more
