Categories: Food
Yes, Wildfire Chicago has the sophisticated atmosphere of a classic 1940s supper club, but you don’t have to leave the kids at home. Wildfire is a welcoming choice for family dining, with a lively dining room, an open kitchen that can be fun for younger guests to watch, and a menu with plenty of familiar favorites.
For children under 12, Wildfire offers a dedicated kids menu featuring Grilled Cheese & Fries, Chicken Fingers & Fries, Hamburger & Fries, or Cheeseburger & Fries, with applesauce served with every meal. Older kids can choose from the full menu, including burgers, sandwiches, chicken, steaks and more.
Family Dining With Options for Every Appetite
Back-to-school dinners are easier when everyone can find something they enjoy. Wildfire Chicago’s extensive menu includes salads, appetizers, soups, burgers and sandwiches, sides, steaks and chops, and desserts.
Start with Oven-Roasted Lump Crab Cakes or Bison Meatballs, then choose something hearty like the Tenderloin Steak Sandwich or Lemon-Pepper Chicken Breasts. For a lighter option, the Tuscan Kale & Spinach Salad is a great choice.
Wildfire also makes it easier for families with dietary restrictions to dine together. Every Wildfire location offers a dedicated gluten-free menu, with options ranging from salads and sandwiches to entrées and desserts.
Skip the Cooking With Wildfire Carryout
Some back-to-school nights simply call for takeout. When your family’s schedule is packed, Wildfire makes it easy to enjoy a restaurant-quality meal without adding cooking and cleanup to your evening.
Pick up favorites like Cedar-Planked Salmon, Grilled Chicken Club, Wildfire Chopped Salad or Prime Angus Burger and bring dinner home for the whole family. Wildfire Chicago also offers Big Bowl favorites like Chicken Pad Thai, Sesame Peanut Noodles, Beef & Broccoli or Sesame Chicken for carryout and delivery, making it even easier to fit dinner into a busy school-night schedule.
Make Back-to-School Nights a Little Easier
The start of a new school year is all about getting back into a routine—and finding ways to make that routine work for your entire family. Whether you’re gathering around the table at Wildfire Chicago or picking up carryout between activities, Wildfire makes family dining simple, welcoming and delicious.
