    Excellent au Gratin potatoes
    Bruce B.

    Beware 3% Surcharge on bill ! Steaks are great! Get the $63.95 filet with crispy bacon on the side of it cooked medium it was excellent! Waiter Alveron was excellent! Ambiance was clean leather booths a little uncomfortable. Great chocolate cake!!

    Went for dinner last week with some coworkers, the service was amazing and the waiters were really attentive to our needs. At the beggining they offer you some bread and butter, not really the best and the breads are cold. I chose a Small Ceasar salad, just a little extra salty than what I normally have eaten on other places. The chicken was tender and juicy, full of flavor but salty too, and the side of french fries it felt soggy and cold, so wasn't happy about it. My review comes harder mostly because for the price you paying you expected a better flavor and good quality on the dishes, however other places that I tried have way more accesible prices, had done a better job on preparing food than in this place. Wasn't my favorite, could come again with coworkers if they want to come here, but won't having too much expectations everytime I come here.

    Roasted Prime Rib French Dip

    Weekday day, this place has the feel of old school steak house, with large leather booths and dark brown accents. Ordered the French dip, bread was soft and pillowy, prime rib was tender and cooked perfectly, paired with the au jus which was a little salty but still great. Overall the meal was great and a nice dinner

    Wednesday Fire-Grilled Greek Chicken

    Hands down this is my favorite wildfire location. Always clean and great ambience this one never misses. Our server Emily is amazing! She definitely went above and beyond all night consistently checking up on us and was very helpful with the menu as well. The chopped salad is the best salad on the menu always fresh and flavorful. The soup of the day was cream of mushroom also a hit. I ended up with the Monday night special fried chicken I would rate it 7 out of 10 the chicken was a little oily but the sides were 10/10. This place is great for date nights I highly recommend wildfire especially if you have the lettuce eats app.

    WOW! I came here for a work conference and this was the chosen spot for dinner. Upon arrival, the person organizing the dinner asked if anyone had any allergies, to which I replied that I had a food sensitivity to onions. Not thinking anything of it, we arrive and are put in a private room to the side. There were about 4 servers to help with our party. We got the drinks going and once it was time to deliver food, this is where they really turned on the charm. While there was a pre-printed menu in front, everyone thought we'd choose between one of the options listed. To our surprise, we got everything. To take it a step further, anyone that had allergies or mods were given their own special meal of what everyone else was having as to not have felt left out. I was floored as I've never been to a restaurant where they went to such great lengths to accommodate guests! All the food was spectacular! Everyone couldn't stop raving on the service and how great the food and drinks were. I wish so badly we had this restaurant in Stl. Regardless, thank you for making our visit so wonderful!

    Wildfire Chopped Salad
    Jim B.

    We had already eaten elsewhere so this review is about the bar service. We stopped here solely to pickup 3 bottles of their Citrus Lime salad dressing. We're taking it back to Texas where I make their Chopped Salad at home. So good! We also decided to have a cocktail at the bar. While it's about closing time on a Sunday evening, they still allowed us to have a drink. The two fellas at the bar were pleasant and made us some tasty drinks. I had an Old Fashioned with Woodford Reserve over a large cube of ice. My wife had a Malibu Rum with Pineapple juice. Thanks Wildfire - we hope to eat here next time we're back in the Chicago area.

    Charcuterie board

    Tried Wildfire for lunch. Was in a bit of a rush - service seemed a little slow but the waitress was pleasant otherwise and did work to get my food out quickly once she actually took the order. The charcuterie board was good - probably would have liked a little more prosciutto and a a few different options. I did not enjoy the baked? grapes or the mustard sauce. The chicken (I think it's called brine ? chicken) was not bad - a little bland and needed salt, so did the potatoes that accompanied the chicken. A little broth heavy too. Didn't love it but was acceptable for a rush order. Ambience is very nice, lighting is cozy and inviting. Clean, modern environment. Lots of seating. Had to park far though because it was busy. Overall my dining experience was ok but the food was not amazing given the high price (close to $50 for one person for lunch with only water and no dessert). However would likely try again in the future at some point.

    It's been quite while since I have reviewed Wildfire and I am happy to share, the food taste, quality, and service are still fabulous here. It is still a pricey meal, but I can usually get two meals out of the generous portions. We dined around 1 p.m. on a busy Easter Sunday. I guess we joined many other couples and families who opted not to cook at home! Our favorites dishes are the filet trio and au gratin potatoes side. The chopped salad is a memorable dish too. The trio of filet is tender and filled with flavor, with your choice of crusts. We had the parmesan, mushroom, and blue cheese toppings. My Cesar salad with beef tenderloin was equally tasty and enough to bring home for later. The three-layer carrot cake with cream cheese frosting was a sweet ending to our Easter meal. We have also ordered food to go, but prefer dining in here so the meat stays our preferred temperature.

    My brother was trying to figure out where he wanted to celebrate his birthday. He landed on Wildfire! The reservations were made for a party of 11 for 1PM. We arrived at 1PM and the party was already seated. We were greeted and water was served immediately. The server was great. He answered all my questions as my son has major allergies. As he was taking orders, he was clear on what my son could have. And as the food started coming he reminded him that he couldn't have some of the items. I ordered sides for lunch as there aren't many veggie options. Mac and Cheese, Roasted Vegetables and French Fries. The mac was very creamy. It had the right amount of cheese. The roasted vegetables had red peppers, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, sweet potatoes, and red onions. It was decent but not great. It lacked the roast flavor. The French Fries were fresh cut and fried to perfection. It had the right amount of salt. The birthday boy ordered the French Dip sandwich with fries. He mentioned the beef was tender and the dip was tasty. The place was packed for a Sunday lunch. The service didn't suffer. Overall, the atmosphere was great, being with family was great and everyone enjoyed their food. I gave it a four due to the server's attention to details with allergies and the food overall was good.

    I had the most amazing steakhouse dinner in Chicago thanks to Wildfire. Wildfire is a steakhouse that specializes in a variety of steaks, chops and seafoods. I heard this place descibed as a modern-day 1940's dinner club and it indeed had quite the classic feel to it. Interior is dimly lit with dark wood panels and tables and candlelight. Their rooms have different names and our party ended up in The Rascals Room. The Rascal Room is one out of their eight private rooms. The menu has an abundant of good steaks and it was honestly hard to choose from the amazing variety. I saw on the menu that they had a special of a Filet Medallion Trio and this just seemed to be a perfect choice to try a variety. For this entree; one can choose three of their signature crusts: horseradish, parmesan, mushroom and blue cheese. I chose to get parmesan, mushroom and blue cheese. For each entree; one also gets the choice of one side. I chose to get the Creamed Spinach. Our meal started off with an order of their Corn Bread. The Corn Bread was quite delightful. It was soft and buttery and practically melted in my mouth. This was great start to a great dinner. The Filet Medallion Trio was up next and I am so glad I didn't fill myself up with corn bread because this was entree was quite the meal! The Filet Medallions were pretty big in portion size. I got it Medium Well and enjoyed the overall tenderness of the meats. From the crusts; I enjoyed the parmesan the best followed by the blue cheese and mushroom. I normally love mushrooms but felt the mushroom crust was a bit underwhelming and I could barely taste the flavor. The parmesan and blue cheese crusts were excellent and added the right hint of cheese to the meat. I could tell the meat and whole dish quality! I loved the Creamed Spinach as well. It was rich, savory and creamy and paired really well with the Filet. Last but not least was dessert! I got the Key Lime Pie and it was quite delightful. I loved the flakey, buttery crust as well as the citrusy, sweet, and tart filling. Eating at Wildfire was quite the treat in Chicago.

    If someone who has been eating at lettuce, entertain your restaurants for over two decades this is my first visit to this particular wildfire location in Schaumburg. I typically go to wildfire in Glenview. Came here for the first time for a weeknight early dinner with friends and it did not disappoint. It was great to see the consistency not only from the ambience, but also the menu choices, the food, quality, and the service. As usual, this place was very packed and busy which I am not surprised by at all. It was great to see that nothing was sold out or unavailable on the menu as well. Although I did not take pictures of all the things that we ordered, I must say everything was incredibly tasty and we finished just about everything except for the salad which also my friends were able to customize based off of the ingredients and how they wanted it chopped, etc. This is a must visit for some staple American Cuisine and some solid foundational food choices.

    Good food. Have a good relaxing time everytime. The bison burger medium with white cheddar is the way to go. The small Chopped salad can feed 4 ppl.

    Birthday lunch for Mom
    Amanda A.

    The food and ambiance were pretty average for a restaurant that purports to offer fine dining. We took my mom out for birthday lunch. They forgot the bleu cheese on the steak and bleu cheese salad. My silverware had dried food stuck to it. I ordered the chopped salad and the romaine was wilted- I've had better salads at Panera. They had very few dairy and gluten free options. Nothing special about this location.

    Can I get a gift card?

    Im sure you can. I wont be going back there, i know that

    Open on Christmas day?

    Nope. They're closed.

    Do they take reservations for lunch?

    I'm sure they would take reservations for lunch , but they are usually not that crowded for lunch as opposed to dinner.. if your party is more than 6 , I'd make reservations to be on the safe side !

Although friendly greeting and being seated immediately, that went well. Where this train started going off the rails was when the waiter returned with our beverages it was obvious he had been somewhere eating because he had remnants of food on his mouth and was "smacking" his lips.

Where we were seated there was trash (food and a straw) on the floor between the tables and no one even attempted to clean the floors around us. (Although I personally don't like sweeping around the table while eating because dirt and debris flys around when people use the brooms). For everything we ordered it was a bit salty in areas as if not distributed well. On one side of the dish it was extremely salty and the other side needed a touch of salt. Then when mixed the whole dish was almost too salty. Although we were told we had gotten there right after brunch there were very few customers, however even 30minutes in we still had not received our main courses. Disappointed is an understatement. Oh, and even after asking for the check took quite long. Suggestion to management at this location... Do better.

I would come back to try other menu items and see how items change seasonally!
