Our server Molly was attentive and very personable. We ate for the first time on Easter. We ordered special dishes a pasta and the glazed ham. All the food was delicious. The wings were popular, we had regular Buffalo, Buffalo with gorgonzola, and the garlic ones too. Picky eaters can find something on the menu. The pad Thai, fish and chips and even the slaw with beets were delicious. Portions were more than filling even if you have a big appetite. Wide selection of beer too. I would definitely come back.

A nice quiet dinner with the family on a Wednesday night. Waitress was quite friendly everyone had a smile on their face and had no problems telling you about specials. Had a simple burger with chili and cheese which was phenomenal! I would highly recommend it to anyone in the area and definitely am going back myself!Parking: Tight squeeze if you would be there on a busy weekend.Kid-friendliness: As in any restaurant if you are going to bring your kids and bring them early

Absolutely best wings in Milford. I dare you to name one better. Great service, easy vibe. Awesome happy hour. Get there early.

A great place to meet friends for a casual dining experience. There are tables and booths inside and outdoor seating for the nicer weather. Apparently, Bonfire is owned by the same folks as Founders House and Bridge House. I ordered the Mac and Cheese and added lobster to it (Friday Lenten meal). They do give large portions of lobster if you opt to add it on. (One piece still had the cartilage on it, which was a bit frustrating.) My friend eats gluten free and there were a few options on the menu. The service checked in pretty often. There's not much parking available in their lot, and if you're not a Milford resident you can't park in the lot next door or on certain side streets, so be advised to get there early to find a space on a side street or in Bonfire's lot if you're not from Milford. A good experience, overall.

5 star restaurant, I love all the little details to the meal. The grill marks on the burger bun. The burger, bacon, and fried onions were excellent. The fries were fresh. I had the s'mores desert for $11.50, 5 star desert, hot melted brownie marshmallow. Worth the experience 100% Try it, enjoy!

My friends and I were so excited to try this place on New Year's Eve day. We were there before they opened and were the 1st table sat at 11:30am. We were probably the 2nd to order as maybe 6-7 more tables were sat pretty quickly after opening. The place is cute with beachy vibe and they still had holiday decor up as well. The waitress was pleasant. We received our drinks and my friends and I were catching up and food began coming out to tables. I didn't think much of it when people who sat after us received their food thinking what we ordered probably needed more cooking time. Friends had a coffee refills and when I checked the time it had been about 30min since we ordered. Every other table was well into their meal. I caught our waitress passing through and asked if she knew what was taking so long? She said something about the kitchen making scrambled eggs instead of eggs over medium and she had them remake it. "Remake all of our food?" I asked. "No, just hers" looking at my friend. I was baffled. Eggs only take a few min to fry and the rest of our food could have been served while that was remedied. It was another 10min before our food came and it was cold. Well more like room temperature. So we waited over 40min for cold food. And the person's eggs that were supposedly the hold up had a long hair across her food. She has short hair that was slicked back and my other friend and I had our hair pulled into a tight bun. We called the waitress over. She apologized for the hair took the plate away and asked if she wanted them to remake it or order something else but she had lost her appetite by this point. My other friend asked if he food could be warmed up and they did and remade her poached eggs and I ate my food cold bc I was starving. I've waitressed and worked in restaurant kitchens. I know it wasn't the wait staff's fault about the food but there could have been better communication or an offer to bring some food out. The "Belgian waffle" looked like a frozen product that was warmed up. I couldn't tell if my salad was overdressed or if the spring mix had wilted because it sat too long with the dressing but the "meat and potatoes" was ok. My other friend that ate her warmed up food said it was ok. Not a good experience.Parking: Small free parking lot. Mind the one way streets surrounding the building.

Food was excellent and reasonably priced for the quality. Pretty extensive and varied menu too. Clean restaurant with a nice aesthetic. Server wasn't too friendly but I've seen worse. Sometimes people are just having a bad day so I won't judge too harshly. I'll probably come back here again at some point

Been here many times, never was left feeling disappointed. Solid 4 star. Burger was excellent. Nice view and had a outside feeling when the large bar door was open.

I wish I took a photo of my plate. It was delicious. I’m not a huge salad fan. I usually go for the Caesar salads. But I do love hummus. So I tried the “my big fat Greek salad”. It was so delicious I wiped my plate clean with the naan bread.
