As always the food and service was great. The reservation system needs work. We made a reservation for 6:30 and had to wait until after 7 p.m. to be seated.

Used to be my all time favorite restaurant. When we first started going to Wildfire, my horseradish crusted fillet was $36. It’s now $58. I’m sure it was at least 20 years ago, but that is one outrageous increase in price. It prevents us from going to the restaurant more often than we do. Now if we go once a year, it’s just a special treat. We used to go a lot more often. However, times, Covid, etc. are all reasons we can’t go more often anymore. I do believe the prices are totally outrageous. So sad.

Excellent food and service! We had the crabcakes which were delicious for an appetizer, and we had a side salad for myself, which was plenty, quite a nice serving! I also had the Wednesday special chicken that was excellent. My husband had the trios fillet which he always enjoys! The service was excellent ! And we love the ambience!
