Waited an extraordinary amt of time for food to come out. Mgmt recognized delay, and offered 1 free dessert for our table of 5. Pretty minimal apology for the inconvenience. Food did come out tasting very delicious. Not sure what kitchen hold up was.

Great drinks and great food! The service was quick and friendly and was very reasonably priced. We love how Bonfire is always changing their menu up and keeping it fresh. One of our favorite spots in the South Side.

We went to Bonfire for my son’s 21st birthday. We asked to be seated where we would have room for the presents. They were very accommodating. The food was fantastic. The desserts were to die for. They put a candle in the dessert. Highly recommend Bonfire.
