    Food and service was great!! They have a wonderful team and they're food and homemade bread were amazingly delish! Noise level is high but fun , seating in booths could use some cushions for comfort for your back ,feels like a stiff pew for a taller person per my partner, otherwise couldn't think of anything else negative to say. Food was perfectly fresh and outstanding !! We thoroughly enjoyed our birthday meal. Will be back!

    Never been before thought we’d give it a try. Don’t think the reservation was really necessary but the dining area was very clean and welcoming. The server, Lisa, was a super sweet and attentive. Helped make recommendations and substitutions as requested. The food was great. Spinach salad was a nice taste of summer with berries and goat cheese. I had the steak which was cooked as requested. The veggies were were also tender crisp and not covered in oil or butter. Definitely recommend this spot. Lisa was a true delight as a server and we had a great time with her.

    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!
