Wildfire

$$, American, River North

User Rating: ***** 4.8

Fodor's Review:

Wildfire. This is as close as you can get to the grill without staying home and firing up the barbie. A triple hearth of roaring fires runs along the back wall of the supper club-style joint that plays a soundtrack of vintage jazz. No culinary innovations here, just exceptional aged prime rib, barbecued ribs, and roasted fish, along with wood-fired pizzas and skillet-roasted mussels. Top taste: the horseradish-crusted filet mignon.

Wonderful Experience

Posted by staceyh from Powell, Ohio on 12/31/06

My husband and I ate at the Wildfire on the recommendation of our concierge. What a wonderful experience. We had to wait and hour and a half without reservations but our time at the bar was a joy. I HIGHLY recommend the martini flight. A fun taste of four different flavors. My husband had the lobster crusted NY strip and I had the three filet medallions crusted with blue cheese, mushroom and bernaise. YUMMMMM. What a great time. Service was excellent.
