Nice dinner at Wildfire last night. The server, food runners and bussers were very efficient. The food was great. The three filet medallions are an excellent value, and the scalloped potatoes were excellent. The restaurant seems a bit worn and is in need of updating.

Great food and great service. We especially enjoyed the grilled octopus, hummus with beets, and fried zucchini and eggplant. The favorite main was the halibut

Food was good but prices seem to be increasing every time we visit which is every month. Very disappointed that barramundi is not on the menu anymore! Also the people behind us had the same complaint. Alma did a nice job of serving us. I hope that we can continue being wine club members but don’t like to see so many price increases.

The halibut was incredible. It had a tiny crispness at first bite, but was so moist. It was perfectly cooked. Our server made my sister & her husband feel very special on their 35th anniversary with a special dessert. I always bring visiting relatives, because I know they will love the experience…
