My kids are taking me to Wildfire for Mother's Day. Any suggestions as to what is good? I checked the internet and it looks like they have a fairly extensive gluten-free menu. Though prices were not on the menu, I am thinking that it is pricey. Any comments?????

I hear you can order a gluten-free hamburger ON A BUN there! Though I'd have trouble passing up a steak for a burger!

I've never been there, but let us know how it is.

I had a hamburger WITH A BUN, "wildfire" salad with balsamic dressing, au gratin potatoes, and a flourless chocolate cake with ice cream. It was very good.... a little pricey... but it was fun to go somewhere and order off the menu without having to make a big deal out of how it was going to be prepared. Everything was delicious. The bun would have been better if it had been warmed but all in all it was a nice experience. I think that my husband and I will go there for dinner sometime.... as the dinner menu was quite extensive. Even though they were serving dinner all day, I opted for a sandwich as we are doing something with my hubby's mom this evening. It was really nice... my three kids came with significant others and my oldest daughter and her husband announced that they are expecting a child in January. So all in all it was a wonderful mother's day!!!!!

We are traveling to IL this summer... I'd love to go to Wildfire. Does anyone know if small children are frowned upon there? We have a three year old, relatively well behaved, but still three. :)

we were at wildfire on a friday around 5pm and there were several children in the dining room but as it got later there were less children. no one seemed to be annoyed by the presence of the children. the place is expensive but the menu is great!!!!

when i went it was for a later dinner , like 8:00pm so there were no kids at that time but it didnt seem like a stuffy type of restaraunt. i would say give it a shot

Lots of kids but it was Mother's Day.... no one seemed to mind. The Wildfire in Eden Prairie, MN, is divided up into several dining rooms so it is not like all the noise is in one area. I think if you go to dinner at an early time (not the child's bedtime) no one really minds kids being in a place even a nice one. I must admit though that when parents take kids out at 8:30...9:00 at night and expect them to behave, I get upset with the parents. But I guess that is a whole other matter. I hope that you enjoy the gluten-free menu. I am excited about going back. The flourless chocolate cake was better (in my opinion) than the "thunder down under" at Outback.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
