Stopped in for a business lunch. Service was good, the food tasty. The server suggestions were appreciated. If in the area, worth a quick trip. The homemade food beats a chain any day. read more

The food is great! I've been there several times. They have a nice variety of choices.

Every thing is homemade and top notch! Lisa is so kind and welcoming. Crab legs on Friday are so delicious. read more

Fire Pit Bar & Grill - Crab legs - Diners Near Me - Peotone, Illinois

Jacklyn the bartender/ waitress is super funny, attentive and sweet. We got pulled pork and Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese were to die for! They also have gaming machines in the back of the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a fun vibe in there always.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Price is reasonable. Will come back here soon. read more

Not one table in the place got their orders in a timely and complete fashion. Every one was unhappy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't crowded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There were three servers. Yet it was absolute chaos. No excuse for such a poor experience. The food was decent but the longer you wait the worse it tastes. read more

My husband is a "watch golf while having two beers" kinda guy, therefore an afternoon visitor. One afternoon I asked to come along as I was done cooking for the day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar is a sensory overload while having several screens turned to a main sports event there is another with amusing gags. Another screen is closed captioned with random offerings likely customer selected. In addition there is mostly country music playing in the bar[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. So he can be happy while consuming his super-cold beer and I have plenty of distractions too. There are always food specials on the board as you enter, and he and I have tried a goodly share of them. We revert to the ginormous hamburger often, which is served with fries or mac+cheese. Fries are good but that mac+cheese is spectacular! We've tried the baked oyster appetizer and loved it so much we ordered another as the main course. The soups have always been hardy and flavorful. Reuben s are my favorite and don't disappoint. The party nachos are over the top. I have had a few mixed drinks specials and since I can't bear too sweet I am guided through the offerings well. The owner has turned this former German restaurant into a welcoming place, always stopping by to ensure satisfaction. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Until I read another review I had no idea there was fondue, but to me this is a friendly place for family and buddies not a romantic interlude spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Been married a long time. read more

Was just driving past an stop to check it out amazing!!!! The food was top notch and thr bartender she was so nice and very kind a the cook did an amazing job on all the food chicken sandwich was on point definitely coming back!!! Everyone should try this amazing food!!!! read more

For starters, where else on earth can you find a 3-course meal for $20??? I've never had fondue before so I had a ton of questions for the staff. The manager actually came around and introduced herself to all the tables and was more than happy to stop what she was doing to explain to me all about the fondue. So the first course was cheese fondue, and they gave us broccoli, carrots, apples, pretzel bites, and French bread to dip in the cheese. The second course was all meats dipped in one of their flavored broths. We could pick from beef tenderloin, smoked sausage, chicken, scallops, shrimp (I may be forgetting, there may have been other choices too- their menu is huge!). The manager explained that a lot of places typically do this course with oil, but they use special broths for the added flavor. The last course was all chocolate fondue. They gave us all sorts of goodies to dip in the chocolate: rice crispies, marshmallows, cookies, bananas and strawberries, etc. The food here is always so good, and the fondue was no exception (and that's not even counting how many good drink options there are here). I'm so happy we lucked into stopping by here on fondue night. And seriously- where else is there where you can get so full on great food for only $20???? read more

We arrived around 5 PM for an early dinner. We were seated in a side room away from the busy bar area and given menus. It took a very long time (over 30 minutes) to get any servers to the side room. Another group showed up and sat at the only other clean table. They got a server right away but I think they were regulars. As their server was leaving I asked if he could stop by our table. The server seemed confused but came over. I ordered the pork chop dinner. The salad was good but the pork chops were very overcooked and only a small part was edible. I think the main focus of this place is only the bar and any food is an after thought. We had bottled drinks but being stuck in a side room with overcooked food and slow service pretty much made the dinner one we wont repeat. read more

Initially went to try the food. And as we approached. Found the owner and apparently the entertainer for the night. What looked to be very intoxicated and basically very inappropriately behaved. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We immediately. Walked away. Disgusting[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We visited here at 7pm on a Friday night after a wake. We were seated the server seemed anxious to take our order. We ordered drinks and then food. Drinks tasted watered down. The food came about 25-30 minutes later one person had hair in their food. Overall the food lacked flavor. This was our first time here although we had heard good things about this place. read more

Kinda pricey for the actual amount of food you get. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Live music is the draw here and the outdoor patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

The service has always been great and the food is delicious!!!! If you haven't tried it you should!

I've been to fire pit twice. The restaurant is very hot inside, uncomfortably hot. One of the times I went a meal never came.

Normally a pretty nice stop I would guess. However today it was terrible. Fondue night. which was advertised by them was a disaster. every course came out with a cold pot. cold cheese. cold broth and cold chocolate. we had a 6 pm reservation and left at 8:15 without being able to heat our entrees the chicken wings were excellent as appetizers but took 48 minutes to be served. i had 3 glasses of cabernet red wine. 2 were warm the third was very cold. super weird when i told the manager it was the worst meal i have had in 25 years she said oh. ok. but never once said im sorry. Whatever. zero people skills. Waitress was good and felt sorry for her. every table received cold pots of cooking liquid and two other tables left early. out of 5! 145$ of disappointing crap. hopefully the manager didn't steal the cash tip we left for the poor waitress who has to deal with that all night. Wife was so embarrassed but the restaurant surely was not. "It takes time to cook meat "was the closest thing i got to an apology: yes it does. especially when you bring out cold broth and think a sterno can is gonna do the trick . Gordon Ramsey ? well actually anyone with a brain could do way better. lucky for me i had some frozen white castles at home. super disappointed in the reaction and handling of an obvious blunder. but i assume the regular menu is probably good. as the wings were great. next time i have 3 hours and want to sit in. a room thats 85 degrees i will definitely stop in. Cheers read more

Sorry I forgot to take pictures. I've been coming here for drinks, which are always great, we finally had a bite to eat. We had two appetizers, the Porky Bites and Mussels. The Porky Bites were good, but the Mussels were delicious! I'm looking forward to trying other menu items. read more

Sassy fun bartender that gives great service. Food is typical bar food. Good drink prices.

Food was good and reasonable. The dining area could use a little updating. We all enjoyed our meals.

We ate off the appetizer section of the menu which was more than filling for 2 people the service was good. Love the small town feel inside. It all seem to have a scratch made look and feel to it read more

Fire Pit Bar & Grill - Diners Near Me - Peotone, Illinois

I placed a pick up order and the person who took my order couldn't even answer my first question. I felt rushed when she proceeded to tell me a time when I had 4 other items to order. The online menu says kids meals come with a pop...I was told at pick up they don't. i ordered 3 kids meals. I ordered two orders of wings with blue cheese and celery...got none. I ordered a kids quarter pound cheese burger and there were no toppings included, nor was I asked if I wanted them. I also ordered a chicken Caesar salad and received no dressing. I was told 20 mins on the phone. It took over 40minutes. I paid over $50 + tip only to find everything missing. I will never come again nor do I recommend. read more

Fire Pit Bar & Grill - Nice burger - get bartender and owner came out to say hello. Don't pass this by. - Diners Near Me - Peotone, Illinois

Fire pit is an excellent place to eat. Owners are awesome and have the best home cooked meals. My favorite place to eat!

Everything about fire pit is awful. The smell is awful the food is awful the bathrooms are filthy and the owner is spacey and unqualified.

Excellent Burger. Excellent Reuben. Great service from character of a waitress. Will be coming back. Legit corned beef, great homemade sauce. Great fries too. read more

There are not many places to eat in this area, one would think that with limited competition you could capitalize on the location and service especially if your food is on point. Well we missed all the marks here. Service is less than stellar. Our server spent more time at the bar than with the table guests. Let's talk about food flavor profiles, if you think this food is good, you really need to venture out more. At least the Italiana restaurant across the street has good food as we have utilized the take out from there many times. Ok so getting back to this place. You will have to keep in mind that you should experience things for your self. My choice is to avoid it in the future. I read more

We had an AMAZING experience! Food and service was absolutely wonderful. We had the nachos to start, which were absolutely bomb dot com... my husband and I shared a burger and a beef sandwich, both were delicious. The Mac and cheese was yummy, but the fries were homemade and worth coming back for. read more

Was back in town visiting family after being away in California for a few years. I wanted a fun bar to meet up with friends while I was in town, my brother told me about this new place that opened shortly after I moved away, and thus I discovered the FirePit. Really fun friendly bar atmosphere on one side with a chill separate dining space on the other, depending what kind of mood you're in. SUPER good drinks (the bartenders recommended some new beers and cocktails based on what we said we usually order and we were not disappointed! The campfire shots were AWESOME.) The food was yummy too. I'm lactose-intolerant and one of my friends is super finicky but they went out of their way to accommodate the two of us. Definitely a lot more stuff on the menu that I wanted to try too (kicking myself in the ass for forgetting to bring Lactaid on my trip)! The lamb I had was SO good (slid right off the bone), and my buddies said the meatloaf pie and brisket they had were great too. Definitely missed this kind of cooking since I've moved! The owners came around and checked in on tables periodically. Really friendly couple, they mentioned to us about a bunch of events they hold at the bar. Sounds like a lot of cool live bands and bag tournaments and things going on pretty frequently, but unfortunately my flight was the next morning :( Cool atmosphere, lots of social events, yummy food, and AWESOME drinks. Definitely wish I could find someplace like this in California! read more

Yuck! We went for a birthday dinner and regretted it. Placed in a room that was cold ( it was December) and had little heat! Decor reminds me of my parents rec room in the 1970's. The staff was pleasant but not overly accommodating. The food was ok, not great but just ok. We basically were not impressed and have never returned. Go to the place across the street and eat there. The food is much better read more

Large homemade style servings that are awesome. Our waitress was prompt, courteous, with great suggestions. It's such a comfortable atmosphere that we struck up a great conversation with locals and enjoyed the common ground found in a small town eatery where your notch number, but family..... read more

My favorite local restaurant. Everything we have ordered has been scrumptious. Pit Nachos are my favorite !!! Staff is friendly. I have no clue why anyone would give them a bad review. Try it for yourself. The food is yummm !! read more

The water tasted like cotton, the food took over 45 minutes to get to us when we were the only two people in the restaurant, and the wings were dry. read more

Food is a hit or miss depending on who is in back! They have a good selection of beer on tap an cold beers as well! Bartenders and servers are nice an will make your stay worth it! read more

Our food was so subpar. The meatloaf was dry and also ordered without cheese, it came with cheese on top. The melt sandwich was dry and didn't have a lot of flavor. The bun was completely like apart so it was super difficult to eat. The waitress was ok. Didn't seem to know a lot about the menu. I don't think any of the 4 of us plan on returning to this restaurant. read more

We stumbled upon here for a quick lunch. The waitress was very pleasant. The food was good. The burger was great and the Mac & Cheese is yummy. We would come back! read more

The Baked Mac n Cheese is the BOMB. Other food has been average. They don't customize orders well, always missing requests for no peppers, add cheese, etc. read more

Hmmmm. 4.5 stars??! It must have been an off day for this place, because nyther the food nor service was 4.5 stars.. We ordered the soup and never got it. Iced tea was barely noticeable...very weak. My husband had the RON DON brisket sandwich. Meat was horribly tough & didn't taste like a smoky BBQ at all. It was just a scoop of meat with some BBQ sauce on it. THIS IS THE REAL CLINCHER: I ordered the FIERY BURGER, which says it comes with pepper jack cheese and grilled jalapeño peppers. So why was I charged for a SIDE OF JALAPEÑO PEPPERS??! No garnish for a burger??? No lettuce, tomato or onion. Mustard bottle barely had a squirt of mustard in it. Server was paying too much attention to drinkers to care about us.... This nothing more than a bar serving mediocre food. I won't be back ..... read more

See all

This place has awesome burgers and on Monday and Wednesday it's $6.99 for a burger with 4 toppings and a beer and the burger is huge and great read more
