Why This Seasonal Special Belongs in Your Chicago Dinner Plans

Whether you’re gathering with friends, treating family, or looking for a quick-but-refined solo dinner, the plate is designed to feel both memorable and easy.
What’s on the Plate
Macadamia Nut Crusted Halibut
We coat fresh halibut with a delicate macadamia crumb, then roast to a golden finish for a gentle crunch and buttery texture.
Roasted Asparagus
Tender spears are roasted until caramelized, offering a clean, green counterpoint to the halibut’s nutty crust.
Lemon Butter Sauce
Silky and citrus-forward, our lemon butter ties the dish together—brightening each bite without overpowering the fish.
Choose Your Signature Side
All dinners include one of Wildfire’s classic accompaniments, prepared with the same care as your entrée:
Red skin mashed potatoes
- Au gratin potatoes
- Creamed spinach
- Roasted market vegetables
- Fresh-cut French fries
- Broccoli with lemon vinaigrette
Dine In or Carryout—Right in the Heart of Chicago
Enjoy the inviting ambiance of our River North dining room, surrounded by the hum of conversation, the aroma of wood-fired steaks, and the glow of classic cocktails—or take the experience home with seamless carryout. Either way, this dinner special fits right into your Chicago lifestyle: quick enough for a weeknight, elevated enough for a date night.
A Plate That Travels Beautifully
From the crisp macadamia crust to the velvety lemon butter, every element is chosen to hold its texture and flavor—whether it’s served tableside or picked up en route home. The result is a restaurant-quality experience whenever and wherever you’re ready to enjoy it.
