Let's start with a 10+ When you are seeking a restaurant to host a large birthday luncheon you try to find an accommodating location. The restaurant needs a suitable size room, food options, bar service and several amenities. I contacted Manager Michael and every request was met with YES we can do that. He and his staff were spectacular from beginning to conclusion. I began conversing with Michael late in June. Our event was yesterday and perfect. So if you need to have a place for around 40 people, Wildfire Public House is outstanding. Our server Kathy was so helpful and accommodating to our groups needs. read more

As a family of 5, this is one of our go-to places to have a nice family time with a delicious dinner. We have been coming here for about 2 years and so far we haven't had a bad experience. Customer service is great and the food is always delicious. The place has a very comfortable lighting, on the soft side, which we personally like. We also like the fact that you can find simple (yet flavorful) and affordable food and also some dishes that are a bit more expensive but great for special occasions. But from appetizers, to burgers and pizzas, to steak and lamb chops, we haven't been disappointed. #WildfireModesto #buzzybooth read more

Great service and delicious as always! We celebrated our sons birthday and he had a great time. We will be back again.

I unfortunately did not take pictures, but I've been here a handful of times and each time is great. Chicken piccata, the pretzel appetizer to the Asian salad is so delicious, we also love the Brussel sprout appetizer salad is really good. The service is wonderful to the bartender who was so sweet to my elderly mom who was sipping her beer at the bar, while we waited to be seated. Really great atmosphere and ambiance. I'll continue to come here especially for special occasions! read more

Fantastic service - kinda loud as we were in the bar area should have sat outside but didn't notice until later there was outside seating. Penne Pasta with Jumbo Shrimp was the bomb. The Ribeye onfire was okay not the best but want to try the New York. Will be back. Also the cheese cake was really good. #WildfireModesto #buzzybooth read more

My sister and I are from AZ in town to visit a sister who is in the hospital. We googled restaurants and like the reviews and menu. We were very happy with our choice. The food and service were amazing. Cassandra went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. She was a shining star in our day! read more

No complaints whatsoever! Friendly, attentive staff. Food and drinks were delicious.. Great menu options! Had the rib-eye and was able to basically get the NY Strip entree and substitute the cut of meat. Also had the Hot Honey Peach Margarita! It came with a fire flame and tasted really good. Our steaks had flames too! Made for a really cool experience. read more

Great atmosphere, music, food and service #WildfireModesto #buzzybooth We will definitely come back read more

We're always on the lookout for spots that could become one of "Our Spots". Modesto has some great eating options and this spot has earned that title. It's really close to another great spot but the food is entirely different. The service is equally as good though. We got a booth facing one of the TVs and the lighting and decor is very well done. It's some romantic shiznit. Our waitress recommended the egg plant appetizer which immediately earned our trust for her dessert recommendations. She nailed those too. This one is a banger. We went on a Wednesday and got seated right away but I can see it being crazy busy on the weekends. We'll be back because the menu is crazy. Nice work WPH! read more

Horrible acoustics Mediocre food Service was OK, but with the acoustics, it was impossible to hear anyone at the table, including the serve server I will not return read more

Sabrina was absolutely amazing. She was so patient with us and our food was wonderful. Great food, and even better service.

This was really good! We came at a time where there wasn't a lot of people so they brought us to our seats right away. I gave them 4 out of 5 because I wish the prices were a little better. Overall, good food but it could get pretty expensive for just 2 people. read more

Decided to give this try a place and I was so glad we did. We let our waitress know it was our first time there and she didn't seem to interested to care, lol, I was hoping for some suggestions or something as it was our first experience but I got over it. Overall the dinner I had was so amazing, I ordered the chicken Alfredo and added mushrooms to it and it was the best Alfredo I have ever had. lol im already hoping to plan a date night here, just hoping we get a better experience with a different waitress, as she wasn't friendly at all. (Won't put her name here) maybe she was having an off day. lol read more

We went today for a work, lunch meeting, about 6 of us, and were seated pretty promptly. It wasn't busy or packed, our server was attentive and I felt like we got our appetizers and food within a reasonable time. The food was good, no one had any complaints, from what I know of, haha. The chicken piccata was very good, lemony but not overly done. Im sure we'll end up coming again for lunch or dinner since it's nearby. read more

First time here and we were told the wait would be 30 min which was fine but then it turned into an hour. People kept arriving and getting seated before us. When I asked how much longer I was told we would be next but we kept getting passed on by other people waiting. We ended up leaving. read more

First time coming to this place. Loved it! Customer service was great. My husband and I both loved our meals. Our drinks were delicious. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

I went there yesterday for a date night with me and my boyfriend and we got the spicy margaritas and the guava drink which where both 10/10 our waitress was super nice and attentive and the food we got as well was great!! read more

We celebrated my father-in-law's birthday here. Wow, the food was excellent, but the service was fantastic. Our server was Carly... trust me, ask for her. She really helped make the celebration extra special. Other staff checked on us too, a real team operating here. Sabrina, the manager, was very kind when we spoke with her. We will definitely return! read more

Wildfire Public House is one of those places that just gets everything right -- great food, fun atmosphere, and friendly service every time. Whether you're sitting at the bar, out on the patio, or in the dining room, the vibe is relaxed but upbeat. The menu has something for everyone -- from burgers and flatbreads to steaks and creative appetizers. Everything tastes fresh and made with care. The craft beer list is solid, and their cocktails are excellent (the smoked old fashioned is a favorite). Service has always been on point -- attentive without being pushy, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell the staff enjoys what they do, and it shows. Perfect spot for date nights, family dinners, or meeting friends after work. Easily one of the best restaurants in the area -- Ripon is lucky to have it! read more

Sabrina is phenomenal! I am vegan and she walked me through options that worked best for me. She also accommodated my friend that has some different food restrictions. Best service I have had in quite some time! Well done Wildfire! read more

I LOVE wildfire - I go to this place way too often but each time it is so worth it. The vibes are great, the staff is kind, they have a good beer selection, they have TVs for sports, and the food is always SO GOOD/the portions are great!!! My go-to order: Lamb Lollipops, Truffled Mac & Cheese (no asparagus), Roasted Garlic New York Steak, and a Hazy IPA (they always got one!). Order meant to be shared so take someone you like :) read more

My rating isn't for the food, the food is absolutely amazing! My rating is simply for the portion. We ordered door dash tonight, I got the chicken piccata & he got the banh mi with fries, both tasted AMAZING, but we were both left hungry after... The chicken & sandwich itself seemed to be the normal portions, but the mashed potatoes & veggies barely filled half of their little sections in my box, & my husband only got about a half order of fries... When we're paying this much for a dish we'd at least like to be full after. read more

I've known about WPH for a long time, but we've never tried it. Oh man - bad move on my part. Probably the best restaurant meal we've eaten in a long time. My wife ordered the risotto, packed with flavor. I ordered the salmon (subbed out the quinoa for white cheddar mashed potatoes), it was absolutely delicious. I don't know what they use to sauté their vegetables, but wow, incredible. The demi-glaze on the salmon could be jarred and sold - it was that good. The interior: cool atmosphere, quite a few screens on the walls, that could be a potential negative. All in all it was very nice, and very clean and the staff was on point. One thought, and I'm nitpicking at this point, we're paying good money for their dishes, cloth napkins would be a nice touch. This place is our current Central Valley favorite! read more

Great food a drinks. Went there before a concert. Fresh and tasty great menu, something for everyone.

Hats off to the chef the chicken piccata was delicious. Ate everything on my plate call it hungry or just plain amazing! MUST TRY!!! Flavors were on point sauce was the best I wanted more. Green beans cooked to perfection not too soft or crunchy to my liking. Comes with mashed potatoes also great Would definitely come back for more. Paired it with a Pinot Grigio which went well together. My server Isabelle was attentive and very nice two thumbs up. Place looked clean and spacious bathrooms were also very clean read more

Love coming here! The chicken piccata, Caesar salad, salad and crème brûlée is some of my favorite things!

This place is cooool! Def has tons of seating for large parties. I believe they have outdoor seating too! A great place to get together for a game or just a nice family dinner. Their menu is pretty good. Steaks. Pasta. Burgers. Pizza. Etc Our serve was wonderful and they have the BEST DESSERT. It was like brown sugar something. Omg literally so yummy! I ordered the pasta with veggies and chicken. I would give it a 5/10. Def would try something else next time. Would def go again and would recommend to my fellow yelpers and viewers. read more
