Great meal. Started by dipping the bread in olive oil with Parmesan cheese. Worked our way onto a delish cheese pizza. Thank you by the way! Chopped salad and Brick chicken are always delish. Management and our waitress were wonderful. Thank you again. We really enjoy the atmosphere you’ve created.

We always try to sit in the a booth in the bar area. Cathy is the best server and bartender. We like the food and atmosphere. We were happy to see they had a broth based soup today. I wish Wildfire would always have at least 1 broth based soup item. Cream soups don't agree with many many people. We recommend Wildfire in Lincolnshire IL
