Love this restaurant

by Julia2266 at Citysearch

I would highly recommend this restaurant. The food is delicious and the service is outstanding. I would make reservations though. The normal wait on the weekend is 1 1/2 to 2 hours but if you make a reservation they have to seat you within 20 minutes of your reservation time. I love their petite filet medallions with the crusts. No matter how you have it cooked, the meat is so tender it almost melts in your mouth! Also, I would advise to upgrade your side to the white cheddar au gratin potatoes. Absolutely heaven. I go at least once or twice a year for a special occasion and I still have not gotten sick of it. After eating steak at Wildfire, eating steak at anywhere else just does not compare and usually leaves me disappointed.

• Pros: Steak, Sides, Service
• Cons: Price

Amazing

by xx_bluebird at Citysearch

I can honestly say without a doubt that this is the best restaurant in the Chicagoland area. The food is quite pricey but is the small price you have to pay for amazing food. I have never had steak that good in my life. I 100% recommend this place. With friendly servers, quick seating and a warm friendly atmosphere, this place cant be beat.

• Cons: very pricey (worth it)

Gluten Friendly!

Wow. Wildfire is awesome. I swear that they have the best mashed potatoes anywhere! Their signature salad is excellent, but I wouldn't recommend it prior to your meal, as it is a meal in itself! They split the salads between 2 to 4 people, so you think they would be dainty. Nothing is dainty here. Prime rib, fantastic. Lamb chops, not gamey. Filet, superbly tender. And, to top it all off, they have a gluten free menu for those of you with allergies... one of the few restaurants to do so.

It's a great treat for celebrations, romantic dinners, and kid friendly.

• Pros: Thumbs up. Ambience, Service, Food
