Business Description from the Web

Wildfire, like almost every Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, traffics in nostalgia. It's a replica of a 40s-era wood-paneled supper club, complete with Sinatra on the sound system, stiff drinks at the bar, and massive black-and-white photos of GIs on furlough doing the Lindy Hop with pretty girls. The menu is a throwback too. Meat predominates--steaks, chops, and barbecue. The baby back ribs... more

The Scene With Wildfire's hefty pillars, wood cabin-like walls and stone ovens blazing in the visible kitchen, one can imagine Paul Bunyan striding in, laying down his ax and ordering a steak. A mix of well-heeled suburbanites, tourists and locals looking for a great steak fill the nearly 300-seat restaurant. The Food Large portions of meat prepared simply with... more

The tempting scents of ribs and steaks charring over a wood fire make your stomach growl and draw you in the right direction: Walk through the door and you've gone back in time to a 1940s nightclub; swing music plays in the background and the decor is black and white Art Deco. Oversized black and white glamour shots deck the walls and vintage-style bark cloth drapes the doorways. Specializing... more

St. I made the reservation through Wildfire's website for that same evening. In fact, I did it with less than 2 hours' notice. I'd go back again, regardless of where my hotel is in the future. I love a good steakhouse, and Wildfire is among the... more

Great steak and a value for steak

Haven't been to Wildfire in a while and after this weekend, I'm wondering why I don't come back more often. In a town of great steak, it's not easy to say "highly recommended" to just any chop house, but Wildfire does a great job and at a very good value. We had the cold plate with shrimp, lobster, mussels, ceviche which was a safe but good choice, not the best, but for the main course I had... more
