Bonfyre American Grille

Yikes. My husband and I chose to come here for our 10 year anniversary. The photos and menu looked great. The taste? Not so much. My husband and I are foodies and are always trying new places. At least once a week. Super disappointed. The crab cakes were the highlight. But I would give those a 7/10. The lamb was okay but not nearly enough food for $45. The trio sounded good, a taste of different things, but the chicken was pink, the steak was chewy, even the steak knife couldn’t cut it. The ribs were good other than the constant shards of bone that you stumble upon when chewing. The mashed potato’s were good! But the green beans were way overcooked and floppy. In the reservation, I mentioned it being our 10 year anniversary but the waiter didn’t acknowledge it. I ended up telling him and he just said “okay”. WOW! Thanks? Didn’t even mention dessert. I was looking forward to the parfaits after seeing the many photos of them. Don’t go. If you want steak, go to Ruth’s Chris. If you want BBQ go to liberty station down the street.

Had dinner here when I was at a conference in madison. I thought the food was excellent! I had the pot roast and it was really tasty with a very nice portion of local vegetables. We also had the truffle fries and they were quite tasty with a very large portion.

Jose, our server, described in detail the specials of the day and brought us a great selection of desert cups to choose from for desert. Fast service too! Our order consisted of Wood-Fyred Mixed Grille, Prime Sirloin Steak with Asparagus, Wagyu Burger and Fried Fish Tacos. Everything was excellent and prepared correctly. My wife and I shared the Wood-Fyred Mixed Grille and they offered to split it into two plates for us. Serving size was still great! The ribs in the mixed grille were tender and had a wonderful BBQ sauce! We had the cheese curds for our appetizer and they were definitely up to Wisconsin standards!
