wildfire grill

We absolutely loved the food catered by Wildfire Grill for our wedding at Pleasantly Devine Stables! So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. The passed appetizers during cocktail hour were unique and delicious, and the plated dinner was just as incredible. The steak was outstanding—so good that my husband and I, who usually split dishes, both ordered steak for our wedding day! And even though we’re not usually big cake people, we were drooling over our chocolate wedding cake. The team was also wonderfully accommodating of our vegetarian, vegan, and food allergy guests, which made everyone feel included and cared for. We can’t recommend Wildfire Grill enough—for weddings, special events, or even just dinner at their restaurant (we loved our tasting there too!).

Lovely dinner at Wildfire. This place is the real deal! Outstanding food, service, ambiance. Just good. Krista is most gracious, ready with a quip, and quite charming. We'll remember our stop here on our way back to Florida. Well worth the visit.

This is by far my husband’s and my favorite restaurant. The hospitality shown my Krista and her staff is stellar. Alex is the best waiter, always attentive to his tables. The bartenders are fast and make great drinks. The chef is phenomenal, putting out one delish dish after another. Krista has put together an amazing team.

My wife and I went for dinner and it was great, the service was excellent and the food was amazing! We had our own cozy table and the atmosphere was great! Their appetizers were incredibly large, I had two and took some home. My wife also said the same with her meal! An absolute great Sunday dinner!

Krista!!!…a true gem. We are so thankful for you and your team. We hired Wild Fire Grill to cater and bartend our celebration of marriage. Prompt to respond, accommodating, and creative in their menu for our weddings theme. Punctual, professional, going above & beyond to guarantee all details. The food was impeccable, generous amounts for the number of guests, and enjoyed by all. Her staff – the best, they enjoyed the party and were always smiling. From our first meeting, the tasting, to our special day, Krista you were simply the best. Huge hug, thank you for everything

Salads, portabella & Mexican were good. Appetizers, soup, crab cakes & baked clams were very good. My daughter's burger was tasteless even the caramelized onions had no taste. She ordered it rare and it came medium well, plus the fries were cold. Service was excellent the waitress wanted to get her something else but she didn't want to cause a fuss. $74 for 2 appetizers,1 soup, 3 salads & a burger I thought was reasonable.

Used them for my wedding and the food was out of this world! I have never been a fan of wedding food but what they made was absolutely amazing. From the appetizers, to dinner and dessert, it was perfect. They had vegan and gluten free options for guests and even made half the wedding cake gluten free for my now wife. I cannot recommend them enough.

Delicious food, great service, and a nice calm environment.

Another hot Sunday so we gave the Wild fire reservation, at 4 and off we went. So glad we started as soon as they opened, so we got in and ordered. My wife had the pulled pork quesadilla and the beef short ribs. I had the hanger steak and I have to say it was delicious. The room and service was excellent by Alex , our food came out quick just as we were sipping our wine. But as always the room started to see others who got the same idea as we did by going early! The friendliness and the attention to detail made our meal very enjoyable! A great Sunday spot

Food and service is always EXCELLENT. Great food, good portions and service is always perfect. Thanxxx

I took a good friend of mine out to a nice dinner as a thank you for putting me up at her place for a sorely needed unplug. It was the perfect evening, the ambiance, the service, our meals...it was all there. If I wasn't already married to her best friend it would have been a perfect date even. Great night all around as a thank you for my friend for her generosity. Thanks Wildfire!

Beautiful atmosphere! The wait staff are friendly and helpful when ordering & offering suggestions on the menu. There are different cocktails which all were delicious.

Went here with friends for my birthday since the last time we went, everything was so good. I wouldn't get the fig pizza again as it was pretty bland. The drinks were all great and tasted fresh and the bartender was very nice. Being allergic to blue cheese and shellfish, the kitchen was able to alter some dishes so I could eat them and that was great. I'll definitely be coming back for the great service and delicious food.

We hadn't been here before and ordered a bu ch of food to try different things. Atmospheee was pretty good. Bacon burger was ok, nothing special. Cheesesteak was pretty bad. Weird, old flavor. Didn't eat most of it. Pizza was pretty poor. Think Tony's frozen, but with more cheese. Loaded potato skins app was ok, but not great. Fried cauliflower app was mediocre. Giant sandwich thing with mashed potatoes, corned beef, ground beef, etc was pretty good. It looked amazing at least. Lastly, the beer selection was good, but expensive. Most beers were $8-9, some more, some less. Oh, bathrooms were pretty poor. Ladies was barely usable. Not terrible, but not sonewhere I'd recommwnd for dinner. A drink, sure.

This once interesting and inventive restaurant has lost its luster. The decor hasn't changed since it opened quite a few years ago and could definitely use a refresh as does the menu and execution of food. The lackluster menu made it hard to choose. The fried calamari was tasteless, not crispy with two dull sauces that had neither spice nor umami. The special filet with shrimp, mashed potatoes and vegetables looked like it had been hurriedly slapped on the plate. Burger read ok but the fries were frozen that could have been made at home in my air fryer not hand cut as would be expected at a restaurant of this caliber. The fig pizza was flatbread with a minimum amount of toppings and served lukewarm and flaccid instead of hot and crispy. We hadn't been here in awhile and doubt if we'll return soon.

We love it here. The short ribs are the best ever!! The Kung Pao cauliflower app is out of this world!! Hubby doesn't eat cauliflower and when I told him he has try it, he was hooked! Pulled pork quesadilla is also delish. I haven't had a bad meal here ever. The service is always great, servers and bartenders! It's a cute little spot with outdoor space in the back! Def worth it!

Chicken dinner was delicious staff friendly she always check to see if we need anything water was always filled Restaurant is decorated beautiful Even has cozy outdoor area

This is my favorite restaurant in Montgomery! I went with a party of four. I ordered the rack of lamb and it was cooked perfectly just as I ordered it (medium), with delicious brown gravy. The green beans and carrots were tender, risotto was creamy and flavorful. The service was prompt, and attentive but we never felt rushed. I LOVE that the plates were left in front of us until EVERYONE was finished eating- a sign of a classy wait staff IMO. My husband had shrimp with tortellini, he said it was wonderful, our friends had seafood with pasta, and ravioli--all had significantly full portions and plates were cleaned! My friends loved their cocktails, I had an IPA my husband was happy with the glass of red wine. The ambiance was friendly, small-townish, the decor very comfy in the historic building. It had good soft-room accoustics so the noise level was at a buzzy and fun volume, never so loud that you couldn't talk and hear each other across the table, which happens in other places with "hard" "industrial" rooms. The temperature was perfect, I brought a jacket just in case of too much AC, but I didn't need it. All was great, we'll be back.

Loved everything! The General Tso's cauliflower appetizer was especially delicious! Friendly and attentive wait staff! Very enjoyable

Lovely ambiance, attentive staff, food that just fell short. On a Friday night we were disappointed to hear that they were out of many of the specials. The sautéed clams appetizer was pretty good, although the garnish was random - such a weird comment to make, I know, but it's certain attention to details that is noticeable and memorable. Parsley was clumped in 2-3 clams instead of evenly distributed. Again, I know it's nit-picky, but also is something that's easily fixable. Short ribs were a bit dry. I enjoyed the mashed potatoes served on the side. My husband ordered the duck breast which was good- we've had better. It was not his first choice of entree, but again, many specials were sold out. The creme brûlée dessert was the best item we ate. We got the sense that many locals frequent this place and that perhaps they'd had an off night. It happens! Glad we went either way- the staff was very pleasant.

Phenomenal. Enjoyed a wonderful duck dish, couldn't be more impressed with the food, will definitely be back

My husband and I enjoyed our dinner at Wildfire. Our waitress was very attentive and was quick to help me find the gluten free items. We had short ribs and a seafood dish. Both were great flavor and cooked perfectly. It felt like the dining room was full of happy regulars which is always a good sign.

Great atmosphere and when nice terrific backyard. Awesome food and cocktails! Service is excellent! Can't wait to return to try other things on the menu. Sitting at bar is also cozy

Service was wonderful. Hannah was a gem, good food, nice atmosphere. Fries were superb

Cute spot to grab a drink. Bartender, Milly is amazing. Bar isn't that big but can accommodate about 8-10 people, I think. Home made spring rolls were good. Cocktails were refreshing, they range in price $12-14. Parking on the street may be a bit challenging at night. We had a couple of Entrees, swordfish and short ribs, which were fine. I am definitely going back to try some other menu items.

3.5 Stars. This restaurant is a nice spot in Montgomery. Not very modern in decor but it wasn't dated either. The food for me was decent. Has a lot of potential to be great. But lacked in some areas. We ordered the crab cake appetizer. Not bad, but if you ever had real Maryland crab cakes, you might be disappointed. As an entree, I had the homemade spinach and cheese filled tortellini with shrimp. The tortellini was very good, perfectly cooked. The vodka sauce lacked salt, but once added, it was tasty. The shrimp, however, were overcooked. I sent it back, which was gladly done for me. But it came back still overcooked. So, seeing that it wouldn't get better, I just ate it. A little disappointing. On the other hand, my husband's braised short rib was 5 stars! Very good!

Visited this quaint place last night for dinner & was impressed. Not stunning curb appeal, but inside is very cute with a vintage old country town feel. We sat outside & enjoyed our fig/goat cheese/arugula pizza (phenomenal!), steak salad, mussels & general tso cauliflower. Quite delicious. Service was on par & prices were fair.

The food was delicious! The atmosphere was great and everyone was so friendly! My date and I had a great experience. I would definitely recommend the Wildfire Grill.

Wildfire grill is perhaps one of the few decent dining places in Montgomery. We came here on a Saturday night with two toddlers. The place was packed, later on we realized it was due to restaurant week. The staff was super friendly and give us seating options with our toddlers. Service was kinda of slow but it was understandable. Our waiter was pleasant and courteous. I ordered of the restaurant week menu, I had the wontons, the chicken dish and the carrot cake. All were delicious. The chicken with mushroom was delectable. The carrot cake was perfect. For the toddler we ordered a brick oven pizza which was really good. My friend had the fig pizza and she claims it was delicious. Overall we had a good experience here, except for the look we got from one client who made a face when one of our little girls yelled oh yeah, must suck to be her! Everyone else in the restaurant laughed and clapped. Definitely give this place a try!

Wildfire Grill has been a family favorite of ours over the years. From the range of appetizers including the General Tso's Cauliflower to my favorite entree, the Pan Snearef Snapper, they offer one of the best dinner menus around. I'd recommend Wildfire to anyone!

Had a party of 13 with 3 birthday's we had reservations our server was nasty from the moment we got there!!! Then we had 3 little cakes we bought ourselves so at the end when the bill came it said 30$ for cakes what was this they charged us for plates was never told about this not when we called to make the reservations nor when the waiter bought the cakes out nothing was mentioned about a surcharge or anything, we should of been made aware of this our bill was over 600 already & when we complained the one waitress came over & said give it to me meaning the bill well anyways the waitress snatched the check right out of my daughters hand !! Disappointed & very nasty people & we had family from out of state with us !! Horrible service & will never ever go back again & will be calling today about their horrible service & rude server's

Great find. Nice restaurant cozy inside, very friendly staff. Delicious salmon & great burger.

Great service, delicious food. A nice spot. Staff is efficient and friendly. We shared calamari for an appetizer - really good. I had salmon and my husband and son had burgers and key lime pie for dessert. Everything was delicious. I would have liked a salad to be included in my entree but that's my only disappointment.

We have been fans of this place since coming here the first time over a year ago, but I can't say enough about this restaurant. We had our wedding here about 4 weeks ago and Krista, the owner, and her staff were amazing from start to finish! The food, the service, and how she and everyone made it all about us. I truly appreciate everything they did to make our day special, including the amazing drinks, apps, and entrees along with some of the most amazing desserts and wedding cake I have had. I highly recommend this restaurant for dinner or any special event you may have coming up. Special thanks to Krista, Jesus, Rachel, Lucy, Erin and Alex and all the great kitchen staff.

When others come and go Wild Fire Grill is a main stay in the Montgomery area. We were a table of five, the servers name if I remember correctly was Lucy gave us a few moments to settle in came over and asked in anyone cared for tap water or Pellegrino and if anyone wanted something from the Bar. Lucy remembered who GOT what, no auctioning off a sign of professionalism that is becoming harder and harder to find in this post Covid world. After the drinks arrived Lucy pointed out some items on the menu and specials that she recommended. At that point we ordered some appetizers to share for the table, she put them in and they arrived in short order, the accommodations requested were done without any hesitation. In some establishments special requests are frond upon, not at the Wild fire Grill. After we finished the appetizers our server cleared the appetizers, reset the flatware and took our order. When the Entrees came out again each person was served what they ordered no auctioning Great!!!! Lucy checked on us with in the first five minutes to insure we were all enjoying our meals. Lets now talk about the food the calamari were cooked well, nice even batter with two dipping sauces, I personally would have preferred the rings to be a bit larger but it works. The Bacon wrapped Scallops were good not over cooked and well presented. As for the entrees The Shrimp Tortellini my daughter really enjoyed. My wife enjoyed the Sweet potato ravioli the Whole walnuts were a nice touch. The Pork Chop was good not over cooked but it could have been a little thicker. The Sirloin was done to a perfect medium and rested. The potatoes were well done, crispy on the outside and seasoned well. I had the Burger, the mushroom topping was well prepared, bun was fresh, the fries were crispy and well seasoned. As for dessert. Lucy was right the Chocolate Hazelnut Cheesecake was really good, we also had a crème Brule and a cheese cake they were all made on premise!!! I finished off with a double Espresso and Lucy even Made it Macchiato. Before tax and tip it was $49.00 per person a bargain in todays economy. Wild Fire Grill has out door dining as well, the outdoor dining is out back in a cortile setting not street facing it makes for a pleasurable al fresco dining experience. For a special occasion or date night out its a great place to frequent, its laid back with a relaxed vibe but still delivers true steps of service a balancing act few manage to do well!

Ah yes, was here for a trip to wall kill and noticed this small little restaurant, decided to walk in and was greeted by a nice man. We where about 20 people and every meal was good It's a bit expensive but was worth it

OMG.. The best Portabella Salad ever! Next time you're in the area, do not think of passing this place by, if you would enjoy a healthy and delicious meal. If I could give them six stars I would. The bartender Krista was great too! She will make you feel at home! Small but intimate bar. Friendly staff and customers.

Stopped in here after a motorcycle ride and were expecting a little bit more "grill-ish" type place than we found. WG is a nice little place that I would say is on the upmarket side of things price-wise. Not a deal-breaker by any means, but a surprise if you aren't expecting it. The menu is a bit eclectic and I settled on a burger. I would say that the burger was average, but tack on the price and that made it a bit hard to swallow. To be fair, the air conditioning was out that day so it was hot and stuffy in our little corner table which probably didn't help things overall. I would probably give them another chance knowing the place for what it is and going in with a different expectation.

The food here is consistent and pretty good. Last visit I ordered some fish off the special menu and it arrived very cold and quite tasteless. They were overwhelmed with too little help and big tables so that is likely part of the problem and maybe it was a one time deal. But the outdoor space is very nice and enjoyable if only they would invest in some garage sale chairs or anything besides the little iron dressing table chairs that are painfully uncomfortable to use in any situation... Especially not to enjoy a nice, relatively high end dinner!

Me and my wife had dinner here two times since October 2016. Both times I ordered prime rib. First time was perfect second was average. Still better quality then other places in the area. The food is overall above average. However: 1. At $65 a person on average I expected higher quality food. 2. Service was somewhat slow. 3. During our first visit a customer at the bar was over served. This bothered us and typically only occurs at dive bars. It really ruined the ambiance. We may try this place again. Not sure. We will give it some time.

I loved it food was amazing my husband is in love with their food. The decor is a little confusing but nothing that can't be fix the staff was very nice. I ordered the lamb and I almost licked the plate the risotto was so delicious definitely going back again It's a little $$$ but for the quality of the food I think is worth it.

Right when you walk in the door, you have a wonderful woman greet you! She was awesome! I can't wait to go back and hear her play music after COVID. I had the crab cake and beet salad. They were good. The coffee rubbed steak was very good (I took a bite off my friend's plate). My other friend had the salmon. All the plates had great favor and cooked very well. They had a great wine list as well. It was a great experience. Thank you for a wonderful meal. Sad I didn't take any pictures!

I always love coming here either for a long lunch or a dinner. Amazing! The drinks are off the charts spot on for real creativity and so is the dinner. People are warm and nice.

We will not be visiting Wildfire again. We're locals and have tried coming here many times. Last night was the final straw. Never again. Most unprofessional experience I have ever had in a restaurant.

Came here on a Saturday night, I order a chicken quesadilla which it was really good but I also Odder a shrimps and pepper corn and I'll not say it was bad let me just say it's something About the taste that kept me wondering, something about it was not right, not sure if it was the corn that had a weird tasted or some of the other stuff they put in it but the aftertastes was just not pleasant I only ate the 3 Shrimps in there and after that I left it on the table just the way it came in other than that everything else was ok the service was really good, if I'm back in town I'll def consider this place.

This place is amazing!!! We were traveling, called for directions, got here to find out they should have been closed but waited for us Alex said he had to be there anyway..... Our lunch was fabulous. Service outstanding. Jim had the duck quesadilla with sweet potato waffle fries. I had the crab cakes. Everything was so good. We will be back.

We've been boating/launching occasionally out of Newburgh, NY driving down from Albany, NY over the past 7 years and because West Point had graduation a few weeks ago most hotels near Fishkill (where we usually stay) were filled or very expensive. So I looked on a map and only 10 min west of Newburgh, just off 84 west was the town of Montgomery. We booked a reasonable room for two nights at the holiday inn express there which is only a year old. A few min drive for dinner around the clinton street area we wandered into "the wildfire grill" . . . Wow, what a find . . . Friendly service, food excellent and variety of choices were great. Drinks were great. Owner operated as we found out from chatting with the owner Krista while we sat at the bar that her and her Husband (the Chef) have run this restaurant for I think she said 14 years now! But now get this part . . . after boating the next day my car would not start at the boat launch parking area. By the time we towed it back to hotel it was 8pm. Then we showered and said lets go back to the wild fire as our meals were that good! Called restaurant to see what time they serve until and Krista answered and said it's 9:15 and sorry we stopped serving at 9pm. I asked "is this Krista?" and she said yes it is. I said we were the couple from Albany last night and our car broke late today so we have to take a cab to Clinton st and could she recommend any other restaurants that are still open. Then she floored us by saying "no no, you come down right now and I'll re-open for you and my Husband will cook your dinners" Wow, please post back here the next time a restaurant owner does that for you! I've read the book "Kitchen Confidential" and we've seen that movie "Waiting" and we know better to even get to a restaurant just before closing. You don't want to be the one's to hold up the kitchen staff from going home after they've already started to clean up! Krista and her Husband made us remember how sweet life used to be when business owners REALLY CARED about their customers! And they even have 3 young children to get home to. We were there over memorial day and the Toyota dealership was closed and on Tues they had to order the part, so we were in Montgomery another two days. Tried two other restaurants near the Wild Fire Grill. They were OK, but not even close in food quality or presentation. My Wife's favorite item was the pulled pork Quesadilla and mine was the Crème brûlée . Disclaimer: we are no relation to the restaurant's owners. We never even heard of the town of Montgomery NY until 2 weeks ago and we have lived in Albany for 41 years! I'm going to copy this post to Trip Advisors too because the owners of the Wild Fire Grill "deserve" all the exposure we can get them!

I seek out restaurants that use fresh, local products. I first came to Fireside Grill on my birthday. The place had a family feel to it, like everyone there knew one another very well. I ate inside the dining area, which was decorated with some eclectic pieces. The food and service were both excellent. I particularly enjoyed the steak with chimmichurri sauce my boyfriend ordered. I can't wait to go back and try more!

I had high hopes for this restaurant, as I have heard so many good things about it from my family and friends. Perhaps tonight was an off night, but I won't be going back to find out any time soon. We were greeted by a rather unfriendly hostess who brought us to our table. We sat for 25 minutes before anyone even asked us if we wanted anything to drink. When the waiter finally did come over, we weren't even offered an apology or an explanation. If it wasn't already pretty late on a Saturday night, we probably would have walked out after the first 15 mins of waiting. However, we both decided to stick it out with hopes that the food would be better than the service. We ordered the crab cakes and cheese plate, which weren't terrible. Our dinners on the other hand left a lot to be desired. A solid 45 minutes after we ordered our food came out. My husband's filet was dry, as was my chicken. It was as if they had been reheated or left under a warming light. I asked for spinach and was given broccoli, and my "risotto" tasted like boil in a bag white rice. For a $100 dinner (we didn't even order alcohol or dessert), I expected a lot more. To add insult to injury, when my husband made the reservation he let them know that it was my Birthday. They even asked him what my name was. However, there was no mention of it by anyone- including the hostess, who clearly had to see it written down next to our reservation. I wasn't expecting them to roll out the red carpet, but I also wasn't expecting to have one of the worst dining experiences (fine or otherwise) that I've had in a longgg time. I've never written a bad review for anything before. I am always overly polite to waitstaff and I would never make a huge deal of anything to a waiter (I sucked it up and ate the broccoli when I really wanted spinach)...But I feel like I need to put this out there because our experience just really sucked. Hopefully this was just a fluke.

Sadly, my first mediocre experience here. Was unaware it was Hudson Valley Restaurant Week, when we went. So there was a special menu available. The menu was 3 courses, 3 app selections, 4 entrees and 2 desserts, with suggested wine pairings. Opted for the Butternut Squash soup, BBQ & Beer Brisket and something called the 7 bar yummy dessert. After ordering some of the suggested wine pairings, our server returned to say the Brisket was no longer available and they had added Short Ribs in it's place. Strange that they would be out of Brisket as it was early, about 7pm, so I accepted the Short Ribs. The soup was fantastic. Not a great fan of butternut squash, but took a chance and it was a great choice. There is where it went downhill. The Short Ribs had little flavor. I am a true carnivore, but I actually didn't finish it as I was not enjoying it. The dessert was like a super sweet granola bar. Should have had the carrot cake. My wife had the Califlower Steak and was quite pleased with it. Was initially unsure of the Restaurant Week menu but the food is always good at Wildfire and BBQ Brisket would have certainly been good. Perhaps that's why they were out. When I learned the Brisket was done for the night, should have gone back to the regular menu for the Prime Rib. This one experience will not stop me from returning though. Have eaten here many times, and always satisfied with food, drinks and service.

One of the best restaurants in Montgomery! Amazing service and pleasant staff. Delicious food and beautiful dining area and even the option to sit outside as well. Food is always made right and tastes amazing! Would highly recommend.

Food was tasty and it was quaint ant quiet. The pizza arrives cold but we all enjoyed our dinner

Ordered the shrimp tamale for lunch. The flavor was good and the shrimp fresh . I was disappointed because I only got 2 shrimp and the rest was cornmeal. For $13 I don't feel this was an appropriate amount of shrimp.

Great food! Needs vegan options! They will substitute but just by taking ingredients out. Chicken Roulade was good according to my husband. Loved the Sage Brown Derby a bourdon cocktail!!!

I come here a few times a month and I keep coming back because the food is amazing. Everything I've ordered so far is rich and tasty. Ambiance has a cozy, earthy feel, always with candles burning for dinner. Best calamari I've ever had! Fresh, crispy, and delicious. Potato soup is amazing as well. Wasabi glazed salmon is amazing, tortilla crusted salmon is great. It is always cooked to perfection and melts in your mouth. Steak is great, HOWEVER, they don't always have steak on the menu or on the specials menu, so if that's something you're looking for - call ahead of time. Owner is very friendly and personable if she sees you come back after a couple times. Very often she is there, serving drinks at the bar, and making sure the that everything in the restaurant is operating smoothly.

Second time going for a sit down Dinner here. The first time was pretty good I had a bottle of wine and a kale salad, can't go too wrong. This time not so much I went in with a few friends of mine. We first went outside because the weather was nice but the chairs weren't too comfortable(rusted many of them) and their were bee's bothering us so we went inside. One of the ladies informed what seemed to be like a manger/owner. She seemed very irritated and didn't bother to hide it. No big deal the waitress was nice. The food came. I had macaroni and mussels I had to add a ton of salt for flavor.. but whatever.. We then asked for our bill to be split by our waitress. Without any policy written or making us aware their was gratuity added. I asked the waitress is it something always done she said whenever a bill is split. Which is interesting because I had asked for a split bill the time before with no gratuity added automatically. Maybe it was a new policy but with how the "manger" seemed it made me uncomfortable. Any who I will not be returning I spent $50 for myself and I didn't feel welcomed and the food was subpar. Hope it goes well for others ‍

Would have gotten 5 stars but my old fashion cocktail left a little to be desired. The service and the food were fantastic. Got the chicken, it's really hard to make chicken taste spectacular but they did it.
