Food was delicious - I had Gluten free chicken burger and it was so nice and I felt safe when asking about allergens. Staff were clued up.

The food is always brilliant here, and the portions are massive. The chicken is so tasty and well-cooked; the flavours are intense, with great spice levels. It's lively- not the sort of place you'd go for a quiet meal, but not too loud to have a conversation. Will be back.

My sixth visit to Wildfire and it never disappoints. It may not have the expensive cache of some of the bigger Edinburgh Steak houses but you go there for the food not to be seen. Wildfire is THE best steakhouse in Edinburgh

The food was delicious and the staff were very helpful, cheerful and friendly. The only thing was whenever anyone came in there was a very cold draft from the door. The staff did do their best to ensure it didn’t stay open longer than necessary. The tables were quite small but we did manage to get everything on there and the staff were quick to clear away anything we had finished with.
