    We occasionally go to Wildfire in Glenview, Illinois. We have never had a bad experience there. The food is great, the service is great, there is no problem parking, we never wait when we get in, although we always make a reservation. Our most recent trip was for Thanksgiving and the meal was excellent. It is a must try restaurant for sure!

    Excellent casual weeknight dinner experience! Cocktails were creative and outstanding with an Enormous selection of bourbons and single malt scotch. We had salads and burgers, both of which were terrific. Our server, Sean was extremely attentive and available without being intrusive. The owner, Jen was working as the bartender as well as intermittently mingling with patrons and overseeing the busy take out section.
