Pizza was great. Servers were friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking. Prices reasonable.

The staff is marvelous and friendly. The food is good. The music is usually enjoyable. Love playing their slots. Not taking home much money. More like giving but that's why it's called gambling. Have had some great times here. It's like Cheers with different actors. I recommend this place for great pizza, great fish fry and I enjoy the BangBang Shrimp.

We have dined here a few times since they opened. And our latest visit was a Thursday night. The place was empty, unfortunately, though we were told that the local assisted living places bus in their residents for Bingo night in the bar and it gets busy. They have a large parking lot and (when it's warm) a nice outdoor seating area. Though, people smoke out there which makes it unpleasant for those of us not wishing to get the second-hand smoke and makes in unpleasant, so we have gone elsewhere because of this. This is January, though, so no worries about smoking near the food. We were seating it their very spacious dining room. The hostess lead us to our table as the cook (or manager) barked directions to her as to where to seat us. Other people came in after us and that same behavior didn't take place. It seemed odd, bt whatever. My wife and I were not looking for anything heavy so we both ordered soup and salad. She got the French onion soup and I the chicken noodle soup. Scratch that, I got the small cubed celery and carrot soup with a few noodles and couple pieces of chicken and a splash of broth. I guess I have to let them know that I prefer more broth in my soup because this seemed more like chicken noodle stew vs soup. She got the southwest chicken salad without corn. and I got the wedge without tomato and blue cheese and subbed in ranch instead. The wedge was huge and covered in bacon and the ranch dressing was very good (like Wingstop ranch good). Instead of a wedge, this was more of a 1/3 of a head of lettuce. It was crisp and fresh. It was very good. My wife liked her salad as well stating that it was flavorful and crisp, too. Our server was quick to refill our waters which was nice as he just did it without us ever asking (a great trait, btw). There was another server who was more of an entertainer. He would come into the dining room, dance a little and sing. Woodfire doesn't have entertainment like this; he was just happy to do his thing, and chat with the tables. It was a nice change and made the dinner more enjoyable. We paid our bill (which you can do online via a QR code on the bill) and left and the manager/owner experessed his pleasure in having us join Woodfire that evening and off we went. It's a good place with some decent options which seem to change periodically. Not sure if it's a seasonal change, but it's nice to see. Their pizza is also pretty good. It's a nice neighborhood tavern with good drinks and food. Anda bit of bingo.

Silent gem of a place ..very good food and plentiful for the prices Nice sports bar area.. Friendly owners look forward to making your experience worthy of your business..burgers and salads excellent.. Recommend 5 stars

This latest incarnation of a woodsy Lodge-style restaurant serves up authentic smoked barbecue as well as a good variety of other items. The smoked brisket platter is a winner and the pulled pork is first rate. Service here is pleasant and competent. The only minor negative is that barbecue items here come with a little cup of corn kernels rather than the traditional half cob of corn. There's only one barbecue sauce and it's a good one. On weekday nights, you might encounter some unusual groups. This last time we came, there was a women's painting class going on in the main dining area. On a previous visit, the local Corvette club was meeting in the upstairs area.

My husband and I have driven past Woodfire Tavern dozens of times before deciding to meet a friend there to watch a Thursday night football game. This restaurant has a large outdoor eating area along with a big dining room and bar. We chose this restaurant because from the pictures on Yelp, it looked like they had a lot of TVs to watch the game on. We were all able to see the game from whichever seat we chose. We started with the Texas Twinkles (jalapeños stuffed with smoked brisket and cream cheese and wrapped with bacon). These were very spicy. Then we ordered the Woodfire BBQ Chicken Thin Pizza. This was a great pizza with lots of toppings. Because they have a smoker and smoked meats are their specialty we had to try the Wagyu Brisket Platter (16 hour slow smoked angus brisket, served with crispy onion straws, coleslaw, cornbread, smoked baked beans, and corn). This meat was so tender and flavorful. You definitely have to try one of their smoked meat dishes. We got a cookie skillet to finish the meal. This cookie came topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and sprinkles. Our server spent lots of time with us and was very nice. She was able to give us lots of information about the menu and restaurant. I highly recommend Woodfire Tavern!

Chose this restaurant as I was looking for something in the Long Grove area that was large, a bit less crowded, with a full menu, and TVs to enjoy a football game but still be able to have a conversation with friends and this spot fit our needs well. The parking lot is enormous, and they have a bar area in addition to a large amount of outdoor seating. Service was quite fast as we were the one of a few tables in the dining area on a Thursday evening. The interior of the dining room fit our needs quite well with plenty of TVs all around and much more comfortable seating than you'd get at a bar. The food here feels a bit pricey, except for the pizzas which area priced very competitively. It's not too crazy compared to other options in the long grove area however and the portion sizes are fair. One of the things to remember too is that some of the ingredients here are a bit more premium and that's reflected in the price. Still, I wish there were a few more choices of value priced items, though the pricing may needed to help support all the events that they run here. With that said, they do run specials on some days of the week that are quite competitive. The food itself is not bad at all. I liked the Texas Twinkles that had a good level of savoriness and wasn't really spicy, but had a good richness and amount of fat to it. It was a little small for $13 but still enjoyable. The Woodfire BBQ Chicken Thin pizza was big enough to feed 4 and was done quite well. It's a bit on the savory side with the applewood bacon and red onion with about the right amount of cilantro and seasonings to balance everything out. It wasn't too salty or sweet, and the amount of mozzarella was just about right. The wagyu brisket platter was also quite good, with meat that was super tender and had a nice crust. I wasn't a huge fan of the cornbread, and found the baked beans and corn to be fine -- but did enjoy their version of the coleslaw. Overall, a solid choice if you're in the Long Grove area and need a spot to have a nice meal with friends. The full menu and comfortable dining room make it a pleasant spot to spend some time at (when they're not too busy).

Hello All Stopped here today during a ride on the bikes (Harleys) prior to watching the Bears get anialated by the Chiefs Other than a male employee who shouldn't be a server the visit was perfect. I had a salmon BLT which was perfectly made and tasted great My brother had a pulled pork sandwich which he enjoyed Price point was good The other server who originally sat us made up for the poor server of our server and she visited our table a few times and was very pleasant and knew what she was doing. So the verdict is in and I say if you're in the area you should stop in and have a seat outside like we did before it gets cold out and enjoy And if you happen to be a Bears fan (like me) my Deepest condolences Be Safe Bob
