Wildfire

River North · Chicago, Illinois Independent

Wildfire is a Lettuce Entertain You steakhouse on Erie Street in River North styled after a 1940s supper club, serving wood-fired steaks, seafood, and sandwiches. The group's own gluten-free dining guide states that Wildfire offers an extensive and dedicated gluten-free menu, and that all sandwiches are available on a homemade gluten-free bun. A dedicated menu, rather than ad hoc substitutions, is what earns it a listing: the gluten-free selection is published in advance by the restaurant group. Phone, hours, and price band are not recorded here because the pages relied on for this record do not publish them.

Does Wildfire publish an allergen menu?

Yes. Wildfire publishes an allergen menu, linked from this page. We last checked it on 2026-10-28. A published menu documents ingredients as the restaurant states them — it is not a guarantee, and menus change, so confirm when you order.

Which allergens does Wildfire document?

Wildfire's own published material documents: Gluten. The allergens we track that it does not document are: Milk, Egg, Peanut, Tree nut, Fish, Shellfish, Soy, Wheat, Sesame. Undocumented means we found no published information — not that the allergen is absent.

Does Wildfire document a dedicated fryer or prep area?

Key facts

Questions to ask before you order

  1. Is the fryer shared with breaded or battered items, and what else is cooked in that oil?
  2. Is there a separate prep area, boards and utensils for allergy orders?
  3. How is an allergy order flagged and communicated to the kitchen, so it cannot be mixed up?
  4. How are staff trained on food allergies, and how often is that training refreshed?
  5. What do you do to prevent cross-contact during prep, cooking and plating?
