    Went to Wildfire to celebrate my wife's birthday. This is the place where you are quarantined to have a great meal. We had the scallops appetizer. WOW they are delicious. Monday is 10 oz prime rib. It's always tender and delicious! I do wish I could get a bigger slice because it's that good! Wife and daughter had the green beans as a side. Wife just loves them. I had the collard greens for a change. They were good. I'm no greens expert and have only had them about 5 times. Being Irish, cabbage was our go to. Collard greens were never served in our house. Service was excellent, but that's the norm here. I didn't even take pictures because I am so use to everything being perfect here. Our family's go to for a celebration meal. You will never go wrong choosing Wildfire!

    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.

    Great place. I will definitely return for another Mexican martini. Came with a large group, to celebrate a birthday. Our server was very attentive. The food was great. They also offer bar counter service.

    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.

    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!

    Prime Rib Monday

    Overall experience was great! We came to celebrate my birthday and Mother's Day on 5/11. Caring, family friendly ambience. Food was amazing, service was great, drinks were made to perfection. This was our first time here so did not know reservations were recommended but nonetheless we were seated for a table of 6. Definitely will be back again soon!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Chicken fried steak

    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!

    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!

That hint of chocolate bitterness sneaking in like it has secrets it's not ready to share. Strong, confident, and completely unbothered -- the kind of drink that doesn't raise its voice because it doesn't have to. No unnecessary frills. No overcomplicated theatrics. Just a perfectly crafted cocktail that respects tradition but adds a little dark, sultry wink. It lingers just long enough to make you lean in for another sip. 10/10. Grumpy never tasted so good -- and I wouldn't mind getting into trouble with it again. The bar itself? Classy without being stuffy. The kind of place where you can show up dressed up or dressed down and still feel like you belong. Dim lighting, great vibe, zero pretension. I'll absolutely be back, service was stellar. No food items this time, but definitely will be back!

My husband and I are already interested after one visit in checking out pricing for possibly renting out the space for an event of our own. The bathrooms are gender neutral BUT when you go in there the different stall doors have only one label, guys or gals, on the door which is very confusing to people entering the bathroom or waiting for stalls and thinking maybe the guys labeled stall only has a urinal or something but they're all the same toilet. It has a very classy, purposefully dated look but was extremely cleaned and well maintained. They also have free guest Wi-Fi. The cocktails are a little pricey for the area, but the venue space and the quality of the drinks were well worth the price. They actually have a quite expansive menu of drink options as well. Definitely needs more seating options for the drink window area if they plan on having more open hours days for people to randomly come in and enjoy a specially crafted drink.
