    We went very early for Valentine’s Day dinner. It was 4:00. We both had a drink. I ordered their small filet that came with green beans and a twice baked. My husband ordered their Walleye that came with rosemary fried potatoes and the green beans. My filet was cooked as I requested and had a little garlic butter on it. The potato was very good. The green beans were very crisp-cooked as much as any other restaurant does. I like them a little more tender but no complaints. My husband has had the walleye there before and loved it. He was disappointed this time. Two identical shaped pieces came and were deep fried. They looked like they came from a box. The rosemary potatoes were no-nothing. We couldn’t find or taste any rosemary. The dinner was nothing special. We each had a second cocktail after dinner. While we sat, we heard a different waiter give other tables the specials for the evening. We weren’t told about those. At first I wondered if we were too early, but they gave us the dinner menu so I would think they knew the specials. It was just ho-hum. We will be back. This visit didn’t quite measure up

    Love this unique place! Staff are consistently smart, personable and efficient. Food is also consistently good. Cannot go wrong ordering the chicken parmesan. It’s one of the best we’ve ever found. Curried mussels are a favorite starter. Savory and tasty. A real hit!

    Wonderful dining experience overall! Waitstaff (Jack) was very attentive but we did not feel rushed, drinks arrived quickly, food was hot when presented, and the meal was delicious!

    Had dinner here and was very impressed. Decent wine selection and prices. Salads, soup and fish tacos were all very nice. The veggie burger was a great surprise. (Two non red meats eaters at a steak house, still had plenty of options) Service was excellent. Thank you Megan for going above and beyond. We will be back.

    Bonfyre exceeded our expectations! My partner and I celebrated our anniversary there this week and everything was amazing. Madison, our server, was attentive and fantastic. We had truffle fries for our appetizer and were a bit surprised by the large portion. They were delicious, but we had to stop eating so we’d have room for our entrees. I was debating the filet mignon and lobster ravioli and asked Madison if she recommended one over the other and she enthusiastically told me the lobster ravioli was delicious, so that’s what I got. She was not wrong. There was SO MUCH lobster and everything—the ravioli, the lobster, the sauce—was yummy. My partner got the bonfyre grill combo (something like that), with ribs, sirloin, and chicken, all of which were also great. We topped off our meal with the crem brûlée, which was heavenly. My partner joked about ordering a second. I cannot recommend enough that you try Bonfyre.

    We celebrated a friends birthday at Bonfyre. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive - but not annoyingly so. The food was delicious! Best vegetable risotto topped with salmon, shrimp & scallops! It all ended with a small birthday dessert on the house!

    This is an amazing place! It was our first time and it was simply delish. We had such a lovely time. The ambience was great and the service immaculate. We ordered the Cheese Curds(they were one of the best curds we have ever had!), the Bacon Wrapped Shrimp in a fresh vibrant Chimichurri sauce and Zucchini Fries for starters over a couple of drinks. The Bianca Flatbread and the Chicken Parmesan was fine. The Pan Fried Walleye and the Lobster Ravioli were exceptional(they have some really great sea food). All in all this place is great and we are for sure making this a regular for our special occasions!

    My filet was amazing and cooked perfectly. The Oscar style was a nice touch as well.
