"The place itself is lovely and the staff are fantastic. My scallops were overdone and puny, so I think I would order a steak next time. My partner's ribs and chicken were great."

"Met for lunch and was seated right away. Both had salads that were excellent. Our waitress was great! Personable and came around often to check on us but didn't rush us to put in our order. One of the hosts came by and chatted with us, as well. The only complaint was that it was a little cool in there but our waitress asked them to adjust the air."

"Went for a late lunch, early supper and arrived a bit early, but that was not a problem; we were seated right away. Server was pleasant and the cornbread was wonderful, as it was time now for dinner and bread was being served, our server brought us all that was left from lunch. My man enjoyed every bit of it, thanks."

"We have made Wildfire a tradition for celebrating our wedding anniversary. The charming atmosphere, exceptional service, and the quality of the food, wines, and cocktails is never a disappointment. We know we can depend on Wildfire to make our evening a special one."

"The calamari was very good but the appetizer was
extremely small. My husband ordered the trio of filet
medleys and he said it was good but very small serving
overall. I ordered the ribeye, as this is the only cut
of meat I enjoy. The flavor was good however it was
too chewy and actually too much marbling. I only ate
half and did not bother taking the other half home. We had
$150 in gift cards and still owed $30. This was not a
quality meal for $180.

"Listen, If you've never been to any of the Wildfire restaurants you really should try them.
High quality food and service but be prepared to pay for what you get....but TOTALLY worth every penny.
We've dined many times at most of the the Lettuce Entertain You Restaurants and have NEVER been dissapointed.
Just Go!

"MY NY STRIP STEAK WAS NOT VERY GOOD. I ORDERED IT MEDIUM AND IT CAME MORE WELL. MY WIFE SAID TO ME WHY DID YOU ORDER A STRIP STEAK YOU KNOW THEY AREN'T SO GOOD. THEY POURED A BUCKET OF JUICE OVER IT TO FOOL YOU THAT ITS VERY JUICY. NOT. $12 STEAK AT OUTBACK IS A LOT BETTER AND I WOULDN'T EVEN COMPARE IT TO HUGOS. MY FRIENDS FILET WAS GOOD AND ALL ELSE WAS GOOD. TRY A NY SOMEWHERE ELSE AND GET ON THE PROGRAM. $30 FOR WELL DONE IS NOT GOOD."

"I took my goddaughter from Manhattan to brunch at the Lincolnshire Wildfire to show her Chicagoland has sophisticated
restaurant venues and Wildfire didn't disappoint. Our meal was excellent, the service was attentive and the ambiance
was just the right amount of "clubby but comfortable". The only disappointment was the news that the hash will be taken
off the menu soon. My goddaughter asked that I urge Wildfire to reconsider!

"Service outstanding
I was very disappointed in the Ny strip
It did not have a great flavor like usual
Quality not good
I asked for it medium & came out mooing
I did not send it back as I did not want to upset the party
But I could not eat much of it and I was really looking forward to it
The cut was really bad It was also thin compared to other times
and not juicy or flavor. Big disappointment I have a great pallet
& used to be a food supervisor at marshal fields

"My wife and I are on a strict diet and yet wanted to go out to a nice dinner. Wildfire has always been one of our favorites. We perused the menu and found selections that would be in line with the restrictions on our diet but needed them cooked a certain way. Our server was very open to requesting the food be prepared as we needed. The cooks did a great job and our dinner was delicious. So nice to know that we can escape from the confines of our kitchen to head out to a great dinner and not totally blow our diet. We still have 6 weeks left and can guarantee you we will be back at least once to Wildfire during this time!"

"Have dined here many times,Tthis was the first time that the service as well as the food wasn't up to our previous experiences. We didn't realize that graduations had taken place at various high schools that may accounted for this. Our waitress was nice but, seemed aliitle over whelmed with all the big tables she had."

"Dinner for two about 100 bucks, without wine. A menu as consistent as McDonald's with the exact same "specials" for at least 5 years now. Would like to see some creativity from the Chefs with NEW specials. Portions a little small for the price too, so you'll buy the $9 desserts."

"this was a very disappointing meal.
two out of the three meals were overcooked and cold. the waiter was nowhere to be found, until time to give us our bill.
we go to the Lincolnshire location often, and this meal was by far the worst meal we have had there. OH and the best part may have been when one of the staff was sweeping the floor right at our table, how appetizing!

"I was running a few minutes late so I called ahead to let them know. The host was able to seat us right away, even being 5 minutes late, which made me very appreciative. We ordered drinks however, the waitress brought me a Basil Hayden's on the rocks, not a Basil Hayden's Manhattan on the rocks (only thing that wasn't perfect but I didn't mind). Our waitress was attentive and because we had a play to see later that evening, her timeliness in expediting our order was fantastic. I have been enjoying Wildfire for over 10 years and will continue to do so. Thank you very much for a wonderful dining experience.
Cheers,"

"I love Wildfire. It is my "go to" restaurant for any occasion. I know the menu and have been pleased with everything I have been served. That is until Wednesday, May 29th. On that occasion, I ordered the steamed whitefish with artichokes off the special's menu. It was a huge disappointment, very bland and the artichokes didn't know what they were doing there. I'm sure I'll be back to Wildfire, but from now on I'll stick to what I know."

"Our party of six made a 7:45pm weekday reservation, arrived on time, and were seated at about 7:55 at a table near the open concept kitchen. We were there to celebrate a high school graduation, as were many of the other patrons. Our server was attentive and helpful with the evening specials.
Things went downhill from there. Several of the house specials were sold out. Even though we ordered promptly, we were not served our meal until nearly 9:20. The meals were not complicated - 2 fish, 1 burger, 1 Cobb salad, 1 sirloin and 1 crusted medallion of beef. The sirloin and the medallions were ordered medium to medium well and were served rare. The salmon had clearly been cooked first and arrived dry. Very busy, noisy kitchen."

"I have often wondered about the seafood at Wildfire, but was always seduced to one of the steak offerings, This time I decided to experiment at lunch, and ordered the Macadamia nut crusted halibut. I found it excellent; flaky yet moist, and very favorable. I was also pleasantly surprised to find the accompanying grilled asparagus to be favorable, well grilled without being burnt. My server was very attentive. I tend to drink a good deal of iced tea and she did an excellent job of making sure my glass was not left empty for long. It also seems to be a less hectic pace at lunch than the normal dinner survice, making the dining experience more enjoyable as well. I definitely will reorder the halibut upon a subsequent visit."

"I was looking forward to my first trip to this restaurant because friends in Chicago had built it up to me and was underwhelmed, particularly for the price. My waitress was very good but the service staff around resetting tables dropped the plates and glasses on the table noisily and talked the entire time so if they were near you the noise level was high. My twice baked potato and apple dessert were very good but the prime rib was one of the worst pieces I've had anywhere in a while: overcooked, dried out, fatty. And when I went to the rest room between the entree and dessert the service staff had cleared all my drinks including the coffee I had ordered for dessert and had the table practically reset for new customers."

"Food is consistently great; too bad the service wasn't. Took three times to get an air conditioner fan blowing on us turned off.
Waiter never asked how everything was; served others ahead of us. Busboy was more attentive.

"I love the ambience of Wildfire with the smell of wood smoke in the air. The wait person was always present, even if the food was slow to appear. Beverage refills - automatic. The menu, as always, exceptional. The food does need to come up faster. It was early lunch time (pre-noon) and the wait just a tad too long. I had the wild rice instead of a potato or fries. I'll be getting this side dish from now on - yes, it was that good. We also had a birthday celebration at our table, and the complimentary lava cake was beyond delicious. Overall, very nice experience. I highly recommend, and will be back again."
