    Despite the fact that some businesses were closed due to accumulated snow, Wildfire was full service. All items on the menu were available. Three of us in our party of six had the medallions of beef which were done perfectly. The same with the two salmon dinners although the prices which included one side dish seemed a bit expensive. Server was attentive and pleasant but not oppressively so. All in all, a positive and worthwhile experience.

    What a delight to find this gem in Bethesda! The chef is talented, every dish was perfectly prepared and presented, easily on par or better than places charging twice as much, locally or in the district. The owner’s warm welcome, the excellent service and easy parking (a rarity in Bethesda) assure that we’ll be back often.
