    Based on two guest dinner experiences here, this is the best restaurant on the square in Georgetown. It's situated just a door down from the Palace Theater, so it's close to both the arts and other nightlife in Georgetown. Curbside parking is easy to come by. Wildfire features a sharp urban contemporary menu with Texas and Southwestern roots. Positive and friendly staff abound. Expect well-paced and complete service you'd expect from an upscale dining experience. Both of my meals were steak-based, both served with their zhuzhed-up mashed potatoes and my personal favorite, the Texas Pecan Green Beans. The 10oz NY Strip Pepper Steaks were both perfectly seasoned and cooked. If there is a nitpick, it's that there was a bit more untrimmed fat on the second steak than I would prefer making the portion size appear more ample--but that's luck of the draw. The desserts--especially the decadently rich Flourless Chocolate Tort--are to die for. It's a bit pricey, and you can easily run up a $25-40 dinner tab per person, excluding drinks, salad, and dessert. But unlike many places at the similar price points, Wildfire delivers on their promise of an exquisite meal. It's definitely THE DESTINATION restaurant on the Georgetown Square.

    I was super excited to eat here after hearing about it for so long! My wonderful husband made us reservations and we finally came! Sadly the experience did not live up to the hype for us. The ambiance was cool, it had a modern rustic vibe. The food was the problem. We started with the maple glazed crackling pork belly. It sounded wonderful to us and we even added an extra piece so we did not have to decided who got the last piece. It was not a problem since they were so tough and inedible. Our server did not check on us until after we finished it and we felt too bad to say anything. We moved on and ordered wine and steak. The ribeye was what I was told to order along with the blueberry bread pudding which they do not have right now. I would give this place a 2.5 out of 5 stars. I generously rounded up to 3 however I do not think I will return to have another experience here.

    What an amazing experience. Staff was extremely attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. We loved each recommendation. Pictured: Elk, Ostrich, Filet, Ribeye, and the 'Quadruple Bypass Cheeeesy Burger'. Everything was tasty. This is absolutely one of the BEST cheeseburger that I had!

    A friend and I visited Wildfire on a recent Monday for lunch. The restaurant was not at all busy, something I found surprising given its great atmosphere and reasonable lunch menu pricing. Service was very good. There are several dining spaces in the restaurant. We were seated immediately in the room facing the front of the building. Drink orders were quickly taken and delivered, warm rolls followed, and food didn't take long to arrive. The menu is quite large, with plenty of meat, seafood, salads, and vegetarian selections. In some cases, there are 2 prices... which reflect different portion sizes (for example, 2 vs 3 enchiladas). We both had the sweet pepper sour cream chicken enchiladas. Unfortunately, the tortillas and the chicken within were hard and difficult to cut. The sides of refried beans and rice were flavorful, and the dish was beautifully presented. This was my first visit to Wildfire, so I'll give it another try for lunch... but will order something different. There were many delicious-sounding choices.

    We were having trouble deciding what cuisine to book for a reservation and stumbled on Wildfire The menu has a little something for everyone, steak, home cooking, seafood, Italian and Mexican! Regardless of what you order, SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT! Try the bananas wildflower! My only suggestion would be for the restaurant to have better signage for where to enter.

    We had a wonderful anniversary dinner! From the dinner rolls (so pillowy and fresh) they brought out at the beginning to dessert, we very much enjoyed everything we ordered. The southwest Caesar salad was fresh and the dressing was on point. The ribeye my husband got was cooked perfect. This is hit or miss at some restaurants and they got it perfect. The flame kissed chicken breast was good. Too many mushrooms and veggies for my liking, but I still enjoyed it. The garlic bread they serve with it was so flavorful and crunchy. The Black Forest cake was perfection. Rich chocolate with a light cherry sauce! Perfect to share. Would go back again if in town. Service was excellent! Ambiance is cozy. Only feedback would be they need to update/renovate the restrooms.

    French onion soup

    I have wanted to try the prime rib at Wildfire for years! We chose tonight to prepare for the National Championship football game. I had French Onion soup. It's my favorite soup and they always do it great. Wife had the maple glazed pork belly. It was excellent and the syrup with the greens was the best way to savor it. The loaded baked potato was perfectly baked. The prime rib medium rare was outstanding. The butter sautéed asparagus had a great salty flavor that was perfection. My wife loves the green beans and swears they are the best green beans in central Texas. I agree they are darn good. We have been to Wildfire several times over the last 20 years and the one thing is consistent, excellence! Service, beverages, food is always excellent. Restaurants on the square in Georgetown have come and go but Wildfire has always been there. You can't go wrong with anything there. It's the gem of Georgetown!

    Fabulous Friday night dinner in the bar area. Beautiful interior reminds me of Lonesome Dove in Fort Worth. We opted for the smoked teal quesadillas appetizer and two of the top mains: the veal loin chop piccata and the cast iron skillet chicken fried NY strip. Each dish was a standout. the veal piccata was tender, flavorful, and not too heavy while the chicken fried steak was enough for two and definitely ticked all the boxes for CFS fans. The sleeper hit, though, was the plate of quesadillas. It sounds so average but using duck really made the dish a standout and along with the cocktails, created an excitement for the meal to come. We tried the old fashioned and the jalapeno pineapple margarita. Generous Texas pours!

    Chicken fried steak
    William Z.

    Wildfire is a very nice little restaurant on the Square in downtown Georgetown. Today, the Wednesday Lunch Bunch give it a try. It has the feel of a restaurant that's been around for a while. The menu is extensive and made me want to try everything. Nevertheless, I controlled myself and ordered One of my favorites, which is chicken fried steak. Good chicken fried steaks are hard to come by. Often the cut of meat is very low quality and run through a tenderizer. At Wildfire, it is a very tender New York strip in a perfectly executed breading. My meal came with green beans and mashed potatoes and gravy. I would rate it the best chicken fried steak I've ever tasted. My companion ordered the chicken fried chicken, which was also delicious. My other two companions, both ordered hamburgers, which were just OK.. Service was excellent. Highly recommended!

    Senior sucio Mexican martini

    Wow! Just wow... living in Gtown for the past three years and this was our first foray into WowFire!! Celebrating a birthday, on a Monday... yeah I know, a Monday.. made reservations and walked into the bar. What a cool looking classic bar.. dark wood , immaculately clean , great employees and the best , fantastic drinks while we waited for our table. We hoped for a booth but sitting at a table was good too.. Our server was outstanding, water was delivered promptly . The menu was great, lots of options. The table bread that was delivered was some of the best I've ever had. Our table ordered the Prime rib (Monday special) the rib eye and pork chop. My pork chop was absolutely perfect! With a side of the best collard greens I've ever had!! Wow... so tender and full of flavor! The wood fired corn was also fantastic. The ribeye was devoured and the prime rib slice was thick , tender and delicious. The wood smoke on the meats was not overwhelming but made them taste even better . We were brought a complimentary piece of delicious cheesecake for my birthday. I can't wait to come back ! I almost forgot, I ordered a Senior Sucio Mexican martini.. ( a margarita with olives and olive brine) really really good. Served in a big mason jar, I filled my martini glass twice and still had some to take home!

    Great Interior
    John M.

    Shocking to see such a small IG profile for a place this good....The joint has a very old time feel, very clean and very professional atmosphere. We started with Chips, Queso and Salsa....Queso was spot for not being a Mexican Joint...Also had a cup of Chicken Tortilla...again delicious...Wife went with the Chicken Fried Steak, super tender, great gravy and the loaded Mashers were perfect. I went with the Chorizo Roulade Pork Tenderloin with Horseradish Mash and Collards...This place was about as good as it gets, and we look forward to bringing the GD here for a visit.

    Small Red Oak Nopales Garden Salad
    Michelle E.

    I took my parents to Wildfire to celebrate my dad's birthday and had a great experience! The service was good overall, the food was tasty, and the pricing was reasonable for the portion sizes you receive. I'd come back if I were in the area and wanted a nicer dinner. FAST FACTS: * Parking - Free street parking nearby but can be hit or miss depending on the day and time... you should be able to find something a block or two away though * Reservations - Yes but you have to call the restaurant (I wish there was a way to reserve online) * Online ordering - No * Open for brunch on Sundays and lunch and dinner daily SERVICE - The check in process for our reservation was a little clunky but we got seated on time. Our server was a little soft spoken and hard to hear at times, but he took great care of us and was very pleasant! The food came out quickly after ordering and our server checked on us frequently to make sure we had what we needed. PRICING - The total was $153.81 after tax but before tip for a bowl of hickory shrimp corn chowder ($9), 3 small red oak nopales garden salads ($5 each), 3 10 oz ribeye steaks ($24 each), oak fired elk tenderloin ($35), and a glass of wine ($12) . I think the pricing was reasonable considering the portion sizes and quality of ingredients! Complimentary rolls are served shortly after you sit down... they were tasty! HICKORY SHRIMP CORN CHOWDER (5/10) - The overall flavor of the corn chowder was delicious but the shrimp were very overcooked. I wouldn't order this again. SMALL RED OAK NOPALES GARDEN SALAD (7/10) - It's a pretty typical side salad which is perfect as a starter or a side. The base of the salad is a mix of greens and it's topped with some shredded carrot, red onion, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a choice of dressing. I'd order this again. 10 OZ RIBEYE STEAK (8/10) - This was a great steak and seemed bigger than 10 oz (no complaints). Each steak was cooked as requested. You get a potato on the side which you can get fully loaded with butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon, and green onions... it's plenty to fill you up! I'd order this again! OAK FIRED ELK TENDERLOIN (9/10) - I loved this dish! I got the elk cooked rare and it was perfectly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor! The blackberry port reduction wasn't overly noticeable but the tomato chutney on the side was AMAZING! The mashed potatoes were also delicious and there was a good size serving of asparagus. I'd order this again! 3 ALARM BLACKOUT CAKE (9/10) - This was a complimentary dessert since we were celebrating a birthday... and WOW! It was absolutely delicious! The pictures speak for itself... it's the perfect size to split with someone else (although eating it on your own is also acceptable because it's that good). Overall, I think Wildfire is a great spot in Georgetown for a steak dinner or if you're in the mood for some more exotic meat options. I'd recommend it to others!

    Seafood Alfredo
    Alana S.

    My calamari, seafood Alfredo and peach cobbler were each delicious. Unfortunately the dining room was crowded and loud, partly because people were yelling over the music playing in the background. The location is great to sit in window and people watch or sit outsdie and enjoy whatever may be going on nearby so the music seemed to be an unnecessary element and really just got muffled in the midst of diners enjoying great food, conversations with their fellow diners and a nice establishment.
