    Asparagus Cigars...so good!
    Michelle R.

    When coming to Wildfire, it is so comforting to know that you will be taken care of like family! Karina & Erika always make sure to welcome us, check up on us throughout the evening, and always remember our favorite drinks! Hanging at the bar is like hanging at home with friends; Quiet enough to chat, but fun enough to enjoy the music and watch your favorite game on the TV! If you haven't been in a while...come back! You will be so glad you did!

    Been awhile since I've been here and decided to take my wife on a Saturday night. We got seated fairly quickly and our server came over and got us our drinks while we looked over the menu. My wife got the Cobb salad and the soup of the day which she chose clam chowder. I got the wildfire burger with bacon and cheese and asked for a well done burger which I know my waiter heard since he repeated my order. As soon as I got my burger, I cut it open since the burger was pretty massive and would have probably collapsed with the grilled onions and toppings falling off the bun. To my disappointment- the burger was hella pink in the middle. No where near Well done as I asked. If you looked at my last years review, I even mentioned that my burger wasn't well done as I asked. To me, the cook was too in a rush to get my order out and the frozen beef patty they put on the grill wasn't thoroughly cook. Honestly, this was pink all throughout the patty and I had a hard time eating it since it didn't settle in my stomach all too well. I give my wildfire burger 2 stars since it wasn't cooked as I asked and was medium rare. I left a quarter of the burger on my plate. As for my wife, she shared that her clam chowder wasn't at all hot and that was her biggest complaint. She loves clam chowder and she compared her last clam chowder at Half Moon Bay (Miramar beach restaurant) that they served it hot the way she liked it. I asked her from 1-5 how she gave Wildfires clam chowder- she would give it 3 stars So unfortunately this dinner experience was below par when it came to the temperature quality of our dishes. You may ask, why didn't tell the waiter about the undercooked burger? We all know it's never a good idea to bring back an order to the kitchen. I would be hesitant to get the 8 oz burger again since they've undercooked it twice when I asked for well done and this one was not even close to being cooked.

    What an EXCELLENT experience! This was our first time at Wildfire, and the food was AMAZING! Those Brussels sprouts!!! Delicious! The rack of lamb, loaded potatoes, and my piña colada...everything was on point! The chef definitely did their thing! And our waitress, Sabrina, truly made our experience even better. She was attentive, welcoming, and provided excellent service. She even made my piña colada, and babyyyyy...she did that too! Way to go, Wildfire! You officially have a new family of customers whenever we're in town. We will definitely be back!

    Banh Mi Sandwich

    Started my update in May... but just now finishing (oops) Updating again (May 2026) - today we visit (a week day) & everything went well from start to finish. We were greeted quickly, seated fast & greeted by our server within a good time frame. As always the Ahi Tuna Tower was delicious. Tried Pacos Tacos for the first time & when we return we will order again. Classic Caesar is as expected. The Bahn Mi was not what I was expecting (quite dry/plain) - if you're use to a classic Bahn Mi I wouldn't recommend ordering this one. Everything else was great! A thank you to the server also who answered all our questions regarding the food & dairy allergy for our little.

    We came here for my birthday, and all three of us found Wildfire to be a pleasant and memorable experience. The service was on point, the meals tasty (or so we all said), and the birthday specialty much appreciated. We will definitely be coming back!

    Overall, this is a great restaurant! I made reservations for Saturday at 10:00 a.m. and was driving in from the East Bay, so I arrived around 10:10 a.m., which was not a problem at all. I had a party of eight, although four of our guests didn't arrive until around 10:45 a.m. Our server was incredibly kind and accommodating. She even spoke Spanish with my father, which made him feel very comfortable. She stayed on top of our food and drink orders throughout the meal. The food was amazing. The only issue we encountered was that one of the meat dishes was not cooked well-done as requested. Since it was for a child who would only eat it if it was fully cooked, we asked for it to be corrected. The staff handled it immediately without any hesitation. I highly recommend this restaurant for its ambiance, excellent service, and spacious dining area. They even have a photo booth-style camera near the entrance where you can take pictures and have them texted to yourself or others. It was a fun extra touch that made the experience even more memorable!

    Food and service is great. The ambiance is great too. Our waiter David was amazing. He was consistent on checking on our table. Gave us great recommendations on the food. Definitely will be back.

    OK YUM! Got the gluten free spicy Hawaiian pizza to go. Crust is yum! Wasn't expecting no tomato sauce but the sweet chili sauce was a nice touch. Bonus points for free ranch on the side.

    This is our favorite spot! Food and ambience & service is great! We are always treated with friendliness and respect when we sit at the bar, and Erika and Karina are the so sweet and I always have an amazing conversation with them when we sit there!

    Calculated additional gratuity incase we wanted to give more.
    Sylv L.

    My review is not in the food...everytime I go I order the Mushroom Chicken Risotto (it's not on the menu due to an error) it's so delicious. Everyone at the table enjoyed the food and drinks. My issue is with our bill-we were a party of 5 and they automatically included a 20 % gratuity. I am aware at other establishments it's 6 or more and then the gratuity is included. I looked on their website it does not state party of 5 or 6. Our service was good and I would have tipped accordingly. I just felt to include the gratuity automatically and not communicate that is a bit dishonest. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR BILL!

    Great menu selections and reasonable prices. Extensive bar selections, as well. Great sports watching while eating in the bar. Very good service, all the people here are nice and accommodating. I had the New York steak with mashed potatoes, medium rare. Steak was above average in quality and prepared how I asked. The dinner salad was a great side prior to my dinner. I would eat here again...although I'm from Southern California...this is one of the better places to eat up here in the Modesto area. Sports bar with very good food to enjoy. I recommend this place. Bar-tender Erica was very nice and great server.

    Had a great experience at Wildfire Public House today! Our server, David, was friendly, efficient, and gave excellent recommendations throughout the meal. He recommended the lamb lollipops and they were absolutely amazing -- definitely a must-try. We also ordered the burger, bruschetta, and chicken wings, and everything was delicious. Honestly, we were so hungry we forgot to take pictures before digging in, but managed to snap one before leaving. The service was pleasant, the food came out great, and the overall experience was excellent. If you're ever in Modesto, definitely check this place out -- it won't disappoint!

    Went in for Brunch on Sunday and was happy that we got all the menus so everything was on the table (pun intended). The AC was pumping so it was a little bit cold and a little bit loud but a great vibe. The food was great and the service was friendly and prompt. Happy to see they had Altamont beer on tap. We had a great time and will be back!

    The Standard Pub - Hot Chicken Sandwich

    The Standard Pub

    4.0(76 reviews)
    0.8 mi

    I have left wonderful reviews in the past for this place but I have to share my experience…read morerecently. My boyfriend and I have been to Standard Pub several times during the day, and every visit has been fantastic. We've enjoyed the food, drinks, and even had the pleasure of speaking with the owner on multiple occasions. The service was always welcoming, and the food was consistently phenomenal. Because of those great experiences, we decided to bring some friends on a Saturday night. We arrived around 7:30 PM, and the atmosphere looked promising. There appeared to be a DJ setting up, and the crowd seemed excited for a night of music, food, and drinks. Unfortunately, our experience that evening was completely different from what we had come to expect. We ordered food and drinks, and while our server wasn't outright rude, he seemed uninterested in providing the level of service we had previously received. As the night went on, things became increasingly odd. Shortly after ordering another round of drinks, while our drinks were still full and we had just received them, the server approached our table and asked if we were finished. My boyfriend jokingly responded, "No, let me talk to your manager," and laughed, assuming the server was joking as well. The server responded, "Yeah, it's my brother," but with an attitude that left everyone at our table looking at each other wondering what had just happened. He then informed us that we needed to put a credit card on file. At that point, we had already been there for over an hour, and it seemed strange that this requirement was only being brought up then. We also noticed that no other tables around us were being asked for a card. The most disappointing part came when we received the bill. There was an additional $60 service charge added--$35 on my friends' bill and $25 on ours. Confused, we asked for an explanation. The explanations we received kept changing. First, we were told it was because my boyfriend was sitting with another group, which was completely false. Then we were told it was because the bill exceeded $100. After that, we were told it was because there were more than six people in our party, despite there only being four of us. The inconsistent explanations were frustrating and made it feel as though the staff were simply making up reasons to justify the charge. Our issue wasn't necessarily with a service fee itself--it was the lack of disclosure and the conflicting stories we were given when we asked about it. To make matters worse, the receipt also included a separate line for an additional tip. After discussing it with them and explaining that additional charges should be clearly communicated to customers, the service charge was ultimately removed. This review is not a reflection of the food, which remains excellent, nor of our previous experiences at Standard Pub. It is solely based on the service and handling of the situation during our Saturday night visit. We left feeling disappointed and confused, especially because this establishment had earned our trust through many positive visits in the past. I sincerely hope this was an isolated incident and that management addresses these issues so other customers don't have a similar experience

This worked fine for us. We had our menus and drinks in a reasonable time and had a relaxing time throughout. We both had the pulled pork sandwich along with the ice tea. I also had the cup of chili (nicely spiced). I enjoyed my sandwich (skipping the bun, as I am trying to limit carbs). My friend, whom I realized often fusses about the meals we share, was more critical. His comments were "Wrong bun, hamburger bun shoulda been an onion bun" and "How long does it take to make a sandwich?" (The wait time was totally reasonable to me.) He didn't like the potato salad (but ate it all with little time spared). He liked the meat in the sandwich, giving it a 5 out of 5. He liked the service less (I felt it was on point and just fine.) The twisted pig is a good place to eat, if it is noisy inside (as it often is) check out the patio.

Service was prompt and friendly and we didn't want for anything. Our Cadillac pitcher came out fast and with two salted glasses. For food we munched on the bean dip (which was great but desperately needed salt) and salsa before deciding on a nice heaping plate of nachos. Plate was a little small but it was piled! I wish it had been a little cooler inside or had some fans going but that's just a personal preference. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other margs!

The place is attractive but also kind of empty for dinner time on a Tuesday night. The kind of empty that has you wondering if you made a mistake as you're being seated. Actually there were a few cars parked outside and the place is just so big and kind of compartmentalized so maybe I just couldn't see where the patrons were. My order included a beef taco and chile relleno. The taco protein was entirely cold, the hard shell was cold and oily and even without these issues the taco was nothing special. Why even bother serving the most boring office taco bar version of a taco possible. The chile relleno tasted like old oil which meant the neither item was very good. When I left there was maybe 2 cars in the lot which made me realize maybe I came during the evening rush. All those patrons I couldn't see had left before 7:45 pm. Overall, there's no reason for me to go back. Unfortunate.
