A word from Wildfire - Chicago
Step back in time to when going out for dinner meant something really special. From the decor to the jazz music, Wildfire has the style and warmth that makes it perfect for celebrating with friends or a quiet evening for two. The extensive menu features broiled steaks and chops, wood-roasted… seafood and roasted meats, all prepared in an open kitchen. Signature dishes include Horseradish Crusted Filet Mignon, Macadamia Nut Crusted Halibut, Wildfire Chopped Salad and Cedar Planked Salmon. So order a signature martini or one of our many wines by the glass, then sit back and enjoy the 1940s supper club experience of Wildfire.Continued

Diner Reviews
  • "We went here for our 6 year anniversary and my boyfriend and I had a great time. The food and the service were all great. We'll definitely come back!"
    Dined on 4/11/2014
  • "My husband and I decided to eat at Wildfire for his birthday and it was, as always, delicious. The one detail that I would point out is that I ordered the shrimp and penne entree. However, the noodles weren't penne; they were ziti. Still good, but slight error. Otherwise, everything else was great!"
    Dined on 4/12/2014
  • "The food and wine presentation was enchanting. The service was exceptional as well. The only issue was the noise level. The food service area is out in the open and it tends to make for a noise environment, especially because the restaurant was very busy."
    Dined on 4/12/2014
  • "The energy in the resturant was excellent. The food was not good but drinks were fine. Service was better than fine and fast. Table wait is ridiculously long there."
    Dined on 4/12/2014
  • "This wildfire was just as great as the one in Schaumburg. Would go there again"
    Dined on 4/12/2014
  • "Steak was a little overdone this time...first time I was a little disappointed. I would go back again, though, as it was unusual to not be great."
    Dined on 9/6/2013
  • "Once again we went back to Wildfire for our anniversary. We love to go there for this special occasion. We have never had a bad meal and it's very affordable for the amount and quality of food. Service is always great. They even gave us a special dessert for our special day. I only wish we would have sat in the open area but this time they put us in the back room. It wasn't as nice as in the main room watching all the action around us. But overall a great experience."
    Dined on 4/5/2014
  • "nice ambience. Celebrated a birthday over lunch. would do it again."
    Dined on 4/9/2014
  • "On Monday has happy hours for half price of wines. Ofcourse everydays fine."
    Dined on 4/7/2014
  • "We usually get the same thing, but we tried something new and it was equally as good. The service was great"
    Dined on 4/3/2014
  • "Throughly enjoyed our meal at Wildfire. The extensive gluten free menu is what brought us there but I ended up having the rib eye steak and a giant baked potato. The steak was amazing. We're from Alberta which is world renowned for our beef and this was right up there with some of the best I've ever had. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was perfect - a packed restaurant with enough noise and energy but still having the ability to have a private conversation."

  • "Jason was our server and he was prompt, attentative and very helpful. I can't wait to go back!"

  • "Love the steaks, sides, service, ambiance, and manhattans here!"
    Dined on 4/6/2014
  • "Celebrated daughters 35th b'day with a party of nine. Crowded when we arrived with people waiting to be seated. We were seated IMMEDIATELY. Server was excellent. Food, most succulent. Great time shared by all."
    Dined on 4/6/2014
  • "Our server was very good which to me can make or break a dining experience when you plan to eat out and have so many restaurants to choose from."
    Dined on 4/5/2014
  • "Amazingly tasty food, superb service, and overall great time."
    Dined on 4/4/2014
  • "It was my wife's birthday and they took great care of us. Great dinner and service."
    Dined on 4/3/2014
  • "We had reservations for 6:45PM and we were seated right away. My husband and I have been here several times, but this time we brought along a couple of friends. Everything was delicious. Everyone loved the hot bread, as well as their steaks. I had the honey glazed salmon which was excellently prepared, Our server was friendly and professional. We will definitely be back."
    Dined on 3/30/2014
  • "One of our favorites. Outstanding French onion, chopped salad. We love the skirt steak. When in season the macadamia crusted halibut is a favorite. One thing that is entirely distasteful is the fact that if you order a drink "on the rocks" there is a charge for "rocks"."
    Dined on 3/30/2014
  • "This chain restaurant is exactly what you would expect - noisy, busy, with OK amount of food for the price paid and with acceptable food quality that falls far short of its pretenses but is what you should have expected to get from this place."
    Dined on 1/3/2014
  • "Celebrated my birthday with my husband, and wildfire was recommended to me by two different friends. What a great experience! Amazing filet & potatoes, good wine list.. All affordable but great quality. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the city"
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "This steak house is probably the best priced of its kind in the land of plenty for such places. The bison with coffee rub was to die for. I found the Caesar salad a bit lacklustre. Portions are huge. Service was excellent besides a few small mishaps, I would have given extra half star in each category. Would go again for sure."
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "We have eaten here numerous times, but, our waiter Shawn didn't give us the impeccable service we are used to here. It took forever to get our drinks and salad and then we were told the kitchen was running 30 minutes for orders. He convinced us to place our entrée order ASAP and wouldn't you know it....our entrees came out as soon as we finished our salads...with no break at all! Very disappointing!!"
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "Went here for our first anniversary. My husband and I love Wildfire and once again they did not disappoint!"
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "My fiance and I chose this restaurant while visiting Chicago and I am very pleased that we did! They had a very good drink menu and their regular food menu looked wonderful. Because I have to eat Gluten free, I ordered from their GF menu. They brought me special dinner rolls and my dinner was excellent! We had the spinach dip for starters and it was one of the best I have ever had. I had the lemon-pepper chicken for dinner. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and cooked perfectly. My fiance had a seafood trio and it looked very good. I know he enjoyed it so it must have been delicious! Overall, we had a great experience at this restaurant. It was well worth paying a few extra dollars! I would recommend Wildfire over and over again!"
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "You can always expect good food, good service and a lively atmosphere at Wildfire. Their steaks crusted with various items are particularly good."
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "Another great dinner with our family - two children ages 8 & 4 - the food was great - service was awesome - my wife is trying to avoid certain cooking ingredients due to a special diet - more than just the obvious gluten and dairy. Our server took special note and accomodated us - thank you again"
    Dined on 3/29/2014
  • "This was my first time at Wildfire, and while parts of the meal were outstanding, other parts were a significant disappointment. I had the petite filet with potato crusted scallops. The filet was good and cooked the way I ordered it, but the scallops were a tremendous disappointment (even by Midwestern standards). The dessert (a seasonal cherry pie) was excellent. Service was good. If someone invited me to join them, I wouldn't hesitate to go again, but if I'm selecting the restaurant, I'll probably go elsewhere."
    Dined on 3/27/2014
  • "Great service and well-prepared food. The perfect atmosphere for an afternoon girlfriends meet and greet. Highly recommend this place."
    Dined on 3/28/2014
  • "Great food and service. Always have a good time at Wildfire!"
    Dined on 3/27/2014
  • "Average food but very high prices. No specials worth noting."
    Dined on 3/27/2014
  • "We all ordered steak and it melted in your mouth. The flavor was one that we will now compare all our steaks with. The evening was delightful. We finished with desserts that were pure heaven. Can't wait to go back and eat there again. A true gem."
    Dined on 3/23/2014
  • "I love this place and plan on coming back and bringing friends for years to come! So glad I found this place!"
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "Wildfire is a larger restaurant that is well lit and open. The food and service were great, but there is definitely a touristy vibe to the atmosphere. It would be a great place for a larger, more energetic group, but overall a good dining experience."
    Dined on 3/27/2014
  • "I'd been looking forward to trying this restaurant for quite some time now, I'd heard such wonderful things... Unfortunately the food did not live up to its praise. I was disappointed with the temperature of the food, as well as the flavoring. My date and I both ordered Salmon and they were both quite bland. I also ordered the lemon garlic broccoli and there was more oil than taste. The best part of my meal was the dessert (luckily I always eat my dessert first).. I truly hope this was just a bad night for them, Because I had such high hopes. Maybe in the future I'll consider going again and give it another try. But as for now.. I'll pass"
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "This is an excellent restaurant; Management cares about quality, service and listens to the customer."
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "I organized a business lunch here this week and had a great food experience. I ordered the chopped salad and the baked pretzels as an appetizer. I did notice that we did not receive our cornbread as a table until I mentioned it over halfway through the meal. Also, on a few occasions, my diet coke was empty and there were 2 other empty drink glasses on my table. I really enjoyed eating here, however with a busy lunch rush I feel the waitstaff could have prepared for that and been more attentive."
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "Wildfire Staff and Food is always wonderful. It's one of my favorite restaurants. I had not visited the downtown location in over 5 years but I believe it is now my new favorite location. From the moment my party and I arrived to the server who waited on us we were treated special. You remain my top choice of fine dining!"
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "This was a birthday dinner as part of a stay-cation in River North... brunch from Yolk, dinner at Wildfire and the night at the Avenue Hotel on east Huron....Wildfire was by far the highlight of our little get-away from the Beverly area...wonderful experience all the way around!"
    Dined on 3/23/2014
  • "I love the Flight Signature Martinis, it is a sample of their four signature martinis. They are a little expensive but it is well worth the price for the taste of the food. Only my second time back, but I will be taking my parents for their birthday."
