Woodfire Tavern - LONG GROVE

Perfect place, perfect people, perfect food. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

On the menu for appetizers it states filet sliders which I then ordered. I received ground beef sliders that could have been filet although it didn’t taste like filet at all. The first one was tough ! I didn’t eat the rest. Nothing on the menu stated ground filet. I have a filet sliders before and it was real filet steak in between the bun! The waitress took forever to give us our check at the end of the night! I will never go back!!

Good food, excellent service, great location. Half bar, half restaurant. The bar side is a little louder with TVs. The restaurant side is a little quieter. Excellent menu with something for everyone. Smoked meats made in house, even flaming cheese.

The restaurant was empty we were one of 3 tables in the bar (main restaurant closed). It took 10 mins for a glass of water and our drinks that we ordered. Our server was nice but incredibly slow and didn’t seem to be anywhere in sight throughout our dinner. Martini came with something in it and I had to take it to the bar (where the tender didn’t give me the time of day only two other customers there). Manager had to help me when he saw me just standing there. I ordered the salmon and it was incredibly “fishy”

Our server was great a lovely lady. Unfortunately, as is often the case with restaurants these days, she was swamped serving and also tending bar. Food was good.
