wildfire eden prairie

good choice. we were visiting from out of town, & this restaurant was suggested by a shop keeper. when we walked in we kind of expected it to be more that we were looking for that evening. though the menu was overally enticing, we chose a 'light' meal of shared chopsalad& a couple of pizzas. thesaladwas exceptionally tasty - the pizzas definitely hit the spot. we shared a bottle of ther 'wine of the month' & it was a sure hit also. so tho we ate relatively light, we thoroughly enjoyed our choices. the atmosphere was quite "club-by" in a very warm & inviting way. it was just what we needed tonight & we'd definitely return.

good steaks. food: i had the flank steak which tasted very good and had a really tasty sauce. the portion was the perfect amount and was platted well. the choppedsaladis also recommended.

service: excellent and prompt which a steak house should be.

atmoshpere: actually felt like a real classy steak house despite being in a mall.

location: this is the big downside. not much they can do about it but who wants to eat a really good steak at a mall in the suburbs? the place should be downtown.

delist. terrific choppedsaladand great fish special (parmesan-encrusted alaskan cod) and wonderful filet mignon. lobster tail was good but small.

vibrant, energetic atmosphere.

we ate here last night for my sons birthday , we came from rochester and we were very much excited to dine at wildfire. but i must first save it is a bit pricy , we had six in our group . the special was a $35 crusted filet (no one ordered the special maybe we should have) two orders of the crusted cod , one ordered coconut shrimp , one had the turkey burger , my son had the rib eye, and i had the chicken and ribs $25. i personally think a high scale place should include asaladwith a meal but that was extra (we all passed on the salad) . the cod was #1 at our table, #2 was the turkey burger, then down hill from there , the coconut shrimp was over done almost had a burnt look, the chicken and ribs meal i had was 50% chicken good ribs cold (they had been heated up from either frozen or refrigerated and were sill cold) the most disappointing was my sons rib eye , it came out and was the size of hamburger patty from a mcdonald's burger ($25 and no kidding the steak was so small he almost died when it came out)
so all in all maybe less then 75% , we won't go back the meal were just too uneven .

great for gathering. i came here for dinner with family on a busy saturday night but we were able to get a table immediately (booths required a 2hr wait). i really appreciated the helpfulness of the staff from ensuring we were seated to escorting me to the ladies' room. wildfire has an older charm with the long bar, leather seats and antique light fixtures but the crowd was very upbeat. families, friends and couples happily dined at the bar, high tops, booths and the more formal dining room. i really enjoyed the honeycrispsaladwith bleu cheese&pomegranate while my family enjoyed the steak, pistachio encrusted flounder&fried goat cheese. the food was worth the wait! we will definitely come back.

love the chicken chop salad. the chicken chopsaladfrom here is legitimately amazing!!! the dressing that is used makes it even more over the top. i call ahead and order it to go sometimes because it is soooo good!!! we have eaten here many times and never been disappointed. all of their food is very good. we even rented out the private room once for a birthday party and it was great!!
