Another great dinner experience at Wildfire! My wife and I shared a small Greek salad which was so good. We both had the special Beef Wellington as our mains, and the meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, the pate and crust perfect, and the sauce terrific. Drinks and wine were great, as were the veggies. Our server, Jordan was excellent. In a very crowded dining room, he had time to care for us, chat, and make sure we were happy. He was a star.

Our group had a fantastic experience at Ema, where both the service and food truly stood out. Our server was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring that every aspect of the meal exceeded expectations. I was especially impressed by how thoughtfully they accommodated an allergy at the table, taking extra care to provide indicators for safe dishes. The dishes were vibrant, full of flavor, and clearly crafted with quality ingredients. Well done Ema!

Food was good, we ordered the custom scrambler and the baked oatmeal. Appreciated the individual coffee thermos left at the table, but hardly enough cream to be shared and we could never find our waitress for more and we waited a very long time for our check. I’d go back, the service just needs some refinement
