    We enjoyed our visit. The restaurant was easy to get to, and there was plenty of parking in a lot next to the restaurant even in downtown Middletown. The weight staff was attentive, and gave great recommendations for food. Our meals were prepared, very tastefully. Even though the seating area is smaller than some restaurants, it was not noisy and didn’t feel crowded We will go again

    Fire at the Ridge is hands down my favorite place to eat. The food quality and the setting are perfect for an intimate dinner with friends or business associates. The fire pit seating particularly is a great way to spend an evening with friends catching up and enjoying a good meal. The service can get overwhelmed on busy nights translating to delays in ordering and food and drink delivery occasionally, but the staff is always friendly and helpful and the food and drinks are always more than worth the wait!
