Love the gluten free caesar salad and they bring out toasted gf bread/buns! Extensive GF menu.
Wildfire has a gluten free menu but the staff lacks knowledge about food handling. The runner carried my plate piled on his arm with my friend's food. She was not gluten free. Great menu choices. Only one gf dessert option. Also they have added a 3% restaurant sur charge. Other than that, the food was good. Hope I don't get sick. Lowering the safety score. I got very sick.
Very extensive gluten free menu—I’ve never seen such a selection. Knowledgeable wait staff. The chef sends out the food with the manager and an “allergy” marker on the plate. Food was delicious; I had the side salad, cedar plank salmon and red mashed potatoes. 5 stars!

Separate GF menu, good food. Includes things like a fried/battered chicken. They also have GF bread as a starter.
Server very attentive to our needs. Food and choices were plentiful. Cedar planked salmon amazing and huge portion!
Wonderful food. Separate gf menu. Gluten free bread brought out before dinner was pretty good and no extra charge. Good selection of gf items on menu. Food came out marked with allergy stick. Excellent service and felt safe. French fries here are not safe due to cross contamination our waiter mentioned so that was a bummer for my son, but the mashed potatoes were good.
We tried this place while in the area and the reviews i read on this site. I was not disappointed. It was so good. We had bread before our meal. I had French onion soup and a French dip. All gf and very good. I will go back.
We brought guests and they really enjoyed the coconut shrimp and crab cake ( not GF). I got a roll and Caesar salad with croutons. Amazing food!
I love the attention they give to GF options. They have a separate GF menu, and the servers are incredibly knowledgeable and cautious about the GF options and preparation. I never felt like I had to be overly vigilant while eating here because they’ve made it easy. And the food is outstanding!
A ton of safe options, plus they bring out gluten free bread before your meal! A lot of options you can’t get as a celiac in many places, including: French onion soup, chocolate cake, good bread for sandwiches, French dip/steak sandwiches, and more.
Great separate menu and items are brought out with a small allergy flag. Definitely recommend!
Visiting for work. Been eating here every single night. Amazing GF bread. It is so “light” and “fluffy”. I’ve been GF for nearly 20 years now, it’s the best I’ve had.
They offer to bring out some “bread” before your meal. It’s effectively a bun - but it’s so good.
The other food has been great too. But that bread. 😋😋😋
Great service, my waitress answered all my questions and was knowledgeable and the gluten free bun is amazing!!
5 stars for not getting sick but 3 stars for taste and lack of options for those that are also dairy free. I ended up getting 3 veggie side dishes as I was too overwhelmed with making sure my dish was both GF & DF. Overall good experience - yellow slip was filled out with allergies and signed off by manager and ran out separately to avoid cross contamination.
I was blown away with the quality, options and service at the Glenview location. On the two occasions I ventured to this Schaumburg location I have had a severe reaction. The last being two days ago. PLEASE BE AWARE. I even told the server that the time before I had gotten sick. My server insisted that there was no way I could have gotten sick the last time as the item I ordered was "naturally gluten free". Not only did I not appreciate her faul attitude, but her lack of concern and attention to my dietary needs was evident by this last trip. I was sick again within hours. I know it is general practice for the serve to inform the kitchen by filling out a yellow slip to go with the order, and generally the dish comes with a tag saying "allergy" on it, signifying that it was prepared as a gluten free dish. Neither of the times I have been here has this happened. Now I realise it wasn't just someone forgetting to put the tag on the dish when it was served, it was pure negligence and lack of care. I do hope their staff take GF dietary requests seriously, as people who suffer from celiac like myself do not simply choose to eat this way...
Great experience at a corporate dinner. Staff was very knowledgeable and created GF options from the preset family style menu. Excellent meal! Thank you
Biggest gluten free menu I've ever seen! Food was delicious, and they make their own gluten free buns and pizza dough. The staff was very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!
Hit or miss at this location. If you get a server that listens or cares, you should be fine. I've been there 10 times and I've been bit twice. Oak Brook Center location has never let me down.
Good food. Celiac friendly. Lovely outdoor area.
This is our go to restaurant for any specialty dinner we have.
Absolutely fabulous ! There are plenty of options, including gluten free bread. I highly recommend the flourless chocolate cake. Service was awesome as well. I will definitely be back!
Great memo of GF options. This place knows how to do GF well. It's our go-to safe place to eat out.
Definitely a favorite of mine. Nice gf menu. They serve gf bread on separate plate as appetizer. Turkey burger on gf bun was great. Baked goat cheese & gf bread really good. And chocolate cake!
Server was extremely knowledgeable, and they had tons of GF options. A bit pricey, but worth every single penny!
They have an amazing gluten free menu, and awesome burgers! However, they don't have a dedicated fryer for french fries, and that's always such a bummer!
Wonderful. I always love going to Wildfire for their gluten free menu. Its so nice to get GF bread at a restaurant. Its the little things :)
The last time I visited, I had the cedar planked salmon and it had to be one of the best things I've ever tasted. Seriously. I rarely finish all my food and I ate every last bite of my meal. So yummy! I always will go to Wildfire for a fancy dinner occasion!
Excellent GF menu and food. Even 3-4 dessert choices!
I thought this place was completely overrated. I had heard SO much about this place and was really looking forward to my visit. Things started off well with a tasty GF bread as appetizer. Then we got ready to order. I was pleased to see that they offered GF hamburgers *with* a bun! But I quickly noticed that many of the GF menu option simply modified their regular options... By skipping the sauces!! Personally, I don't need a "special menu" to tell me I can make an item gluten free if I skip the sauce. To me, a true GF menu would involve offering substitute sauces that are GF. Anyway. I ordered salmon and my mom ordered a GF hamburger. My sauce-free salmon was incredibly dry and kinda tasteless in comparison to my sister's (she compared them since hers was not GF). The "hamburger bun" was actually the same bread used as the appetizer. We liked it better as an appetizer. It really didn't taste or have proper texture to be a hamburger bun. It was the type of GF bread that literally falls apart if it gets wet. And that's exactly what it did. By the time the hamburger arrived, it had already soaked through the bun so the whole thing was a wet, soggy mess. All in all, service was friendly and nice but the product seems overpriced and a little under par to me. I'd rather go elsewhere for those prices.
had a great meal. server was very caring, explained all my options..

Amazing service to my partner and I. Gluten free menu. Gluten free bread was brought to the table with an allergy marker. The food I ordered also had an allergy marker stuck into it, and was delicious. Great experience.
Ate here for the first birthday dinner post-diagnosis.
I have never felt more welcome at an establishment; I had my own free table bread, and they even gave me the flourless chocolate cake on the house for my birthday (I was planning on getting it anyways, but was prepared to get the gluten-containing dessert and give to my family).
Anyways, this meant the world to me. I got glutened the day before at a different establishment so I’m unaware if any of my food caused me to get glutened while there, but my leftovers didn’t cause any problems. :)
I will definitely be back! New birthday tradition 👀👀
I feel this place is underrated. GF menu and they seem knowledgeable and make homemade GF bread for many entrees. Good food.
Had a gluten free menu and the server was really knowledgeable about cross contact. They have to fill out an allergy ticket and get it signed off by the head chef. Food came out with allergy markers and was really good! I got a steak sandwich with au gratin potatoes and it was delicious!
New favorite restaurant. Very lengthy Gluten Free Menu. Make you homemade gluten free bread. Do not upcharge for gluten free options. Most delicious French dip sandwich I have ever had. Omg. I went today and want to go back tomorrow. Hands down one of the best Gluten Free meal I have had. They truly go out of their way for allergies. No reaction at all.
