Bonfire Grill is one of our favorite places to hangout! When we get the table with the fireplace it’s the perfect way to enjoy the night! Been coming here for there Amazing Carrot Cake since 2007! Never gets old!

Best in Blaine???? Yum yum yum, awesome menu options, all super good. Probably the best spot for a good meal in Blaine!

Highly recommended!

I had a terrible day and we initially had plans to go somewhere else for dinner but they were too busy so we went to Bonfire. The food and drinks were great. What was not great was our waitress. Like I mentioned, I had a terrible day and wanted to have a drink. I ordered a bloody mary and the waitress spilled the chaser on me. She apologized but then asked if I wanted another chaser, even though she spilled the one she initially brought on me. Ofc I said yes. She brought an extra rag and left it on the table. She did not check up on us at all after. Although my right side was soaked from the beer, I still proceeded to eat my meal. I had a terrible day and at the end of the meal, she brought us our bill and did not get comped or anything. I am not one to look for free hand outs but clearly when you spill a drink on a customer, I would think you would try to at least provide some sort of customer service. Again I am just rating my experience there. Food and drinks were great.

The restaurant is clean and cozy for a cold Minnesota winter day. We head there after 9pm Friday nights and we can actually hold a conversation with the people in our group. The Flaming Queso and Three Sausage Flatbread we had were very tasty. The beer selection is good as well.

We ordered a pan fried walleye sandwich and a blackened walleye salad. First thing was for 14 bucks per meal, there was not much walleye at all. For the sandwich, the bun was soggy on the bottom and hard on the edges like it had been sitting out for a while. The pan fried walleye had tasted and looked like it was boiled, not even a small amount of crust and no salt and pepper, the French fries weren’t even seasoned either..One of the WORST parts was we found multiple bones inside the walleye fillets. We catch fish/debone them and freeze and pan fry them every year and the sunfish we catch and prepare taste like a 5 Star Michelin restaurant compared to this place. Finding bones in my sandwich was incredible upsetting. Very upsetting considering we spent 30 dollars on this meal. We live within a mile of this place and will never be back. Very insulting to serve fish that way in MN. ☹️

We went for Thanksgiving Day dinner. The salad was iceberg with very light dressing (all 4 of us found it skimpy.) The turkey dinner was barely lukewarm, but we did receive a generous amount of gravy upon request. The pie was fine. Our server acted friendly, but certainly reprimanded us no less than 4 times for being "late". Our reservation was at 3, the last of the day, but WE waited for a table, then waited 5+ minutes to talk to our server after we were seated, waited at least 5 more minutes before beverages arrived, more time before we discussed food, and there was a long wait for every and anything we asked for. Again, the food was barely warm, much less hot. The turkey and the gravy were actually good, nothing else was. It was no where near the value of $25 per plate. Perhaps worth $10. I would NOT go back.

I ordered a burger where the menu said blue cheese on it. Burger comes with a tiny smear of not blue cheese, blue cheese dressing. If the menu told me it was going to be a dressing, I would have ordered something else. Also the menu never informed me that a tomato and shredded lettuce would be put on my bun for me. Not a huge deal but it’s kind of unprofessional, especially when you charge $13 for a hamburger. Still three stars because I loved the smell of bonfire and the staff was very nice. My food was underwhelming but I’m willing to go back to try something else. My wife enjoyed her chicken sandwich.

The food is good here, but I feel the price is a bit too high. I ordered the walleye bites, but all you get is 10 small pieces of walleye smaller then popcorn shrimp for $12. Doesn’t seem worth it to me. The staff is nice, friendly and professional. The restaurant is always clean and has a great atmosphere. Not sure if it’s worth the recommendation though.

We tried it out for the first time on Father's day. The French toast tasted like fish, basically inedible. My older daughter had the American breakfast and the bacon was mushy inside and burned on the outside. The rest of it made her sick and didn't stay down long. It took about 45 minutes for said food to arrive at our table only to be sorely disappointing. It seemed like they were understaffed, except for the hostesses, who were standing around bored. Will not be going back ever. My 3-year old's milk arrived to the table warm, so he wouldn't drink it.

We have visited this specific location many times. Our last visit was probably our last ever. Service was poor, and so was the food. My wife got the "steak salad." It was terrible. It was essentially a bed of lettuce with 3 tiny pieces of steak on it. We asked if the amount of steak seemed "light?" Our response: "No." To us, the salad was a metaphor for the place --Lacking.
