This is a gem of a restaurant! I was so excited to try this place upon hearing that they have a dedicated gf fryer. My boyfriend and I were only in town for two nights and are so grateful we found this place. There is not much where near we live that has this comprehensive of a gluten free menu.We had the F Bombs as an appetizer, and shared a burger and turkey wrap. All the food was delicious, non inflammatory and most importantly GLUTEN FREE! Every staff member we spoke to was aware of what gluten is, measures taken to prevent cross contamination, etc. They even had various gf dessert options. 11/10.Dietary restrictions: Very gluten free friendly.

We live in Glenview and have been wanting to go here since they opened. My wife cannot have Gluten and it is a challenge to find a real restaurant that accommodates her diet needs. Well jackpot we found it. This restaurant has absolutely amazing food and great service and the Chef/Owner came out to the table to say hello and she was amazingly nice and very friendly. To really put the icing on the cake it was extremely reasonably priced and portions were huge. This is our new go to and I highly recommended trying it and letting the food and atmosphere and service win you over. Can’t say enough good things.

The family and I went there for dinner. The hosts were very welcoming. The restaurant has a terrific vibe and a lot of positive energy.  The food was ok and the service was good.  Looking forward to going back when they've got a few more months under their belt.

The food is amazing! We ordered the steak dinner and lamb chops and they were phenomenal! Seasoned and cooked to perfection! The mashed potato’s were sooo good along with the broccoli. Also got the Margarita flatbread and it was WOW!! Don’t get me started on the crab rolls. I could eat 10 of those. Finally we got the bread pudding and I was in heaven! Kids were even given Wikki sticks in these cute little goody bags to keep them busy even though they were super occupied with the game room. The chief/owner even came out and greeted everyone which I thought was really nice. It’s hard to come across good quality food and great customer service and this places defiantly provides that. Believe it or no, I was a vegetarian for 7 years even throughout my pregnancies where I craved everything but meat! Just recently started eating meat on occasions (I still get grossed out) but the steak I had last night I can honestly say I want to go back today and order it again ? called my mom, sister and some friends to tell them they have to try this place since we are always looking for good food which is so hard to come by!

Chef Jaime seems to have cracked the code on what Glenview needs. Perfect blend of family friendly dining area with a separate bar and dining room. Accessible food and drink menu that has variety without being too pretentious. Food and service was excellent. Chef also came out to check on our table and we had a chuckle regarding the history of her chicken kyiv meatballs. 80s music overhead. And I love that teens are working valet and hostess stands, hustling to make a buck -- applaud the support. This should be a regular in your dining rotation.

I highly suggest making a reservation because the couple of times I've been here, the place was very busy. This space has been empty for a while after Pizano's pizza closed. Parking can be challenging on a busy night. I liked what they did inside. The family area (groups with kids) and the main dining were separated. The interiors were beautiful and the place was clean. I've tried: CREAM OF CHICKEN SOUP- hearty and delicious SMASH BURGER - I've had this on both visits and honestly, it reminded me of an elevated Big Mac. It had the same components: the slaw, pickles, onions, American cheese and the smashed patties. The first time, they served it with a side of waffle fries and the second time, they were with french fries. Both sides were great. CEASAR COBB SALAD- fresh, delicious, and satisfying GREEK CHICKEN SANDWICH- I liked the seasonings on the chicken and it went well with the delicious slice feta cheese and tzatziki cucumbers. Overall, I had a nice experience on my visits. On both occasions, the owner/chef Jamie Bisoulis chatted with all the guests in the dining room. I am glad that Fire Thyme Kitchen opened in this area and I am pretty sure they will continue to be successful. More power to you Chef Jamie and to everyone on the team.

I'm in heaven! Huge range of gf options - almost everything on the menu has a gf option, plus lots of vegan and dairy free options. Dedicated range, oven, griddle and fryer for gf. 2 kiddos have celiac (wheat allergy) so we appreciate this!!! Everything we had was so flavorful and fresh. It is a bit pricey ($35 chicken, $19 burger). We sat in the kids area which I think is wonderful if you have very small kids, but otherwise is a bit loud and lacking the ambience of the main dining room.

Has a New York vibe! Food and Service Outstanding! We had Boursin cheese stuffed meatballs (yum) & Sous Vide Sirloin Cap with garlic, shallots, butter, thyme/rosemary - Delicious! Mixologist is very talented - my hubby had their take on the Sazerac. Chatted with Jamie/Owner who simultaneously quality checked our food. Grateful for this beautiful restaurant in Glenview! We will be back soon.....

Great new local restaurant!! Owner Chef takes great pride in us having a wonderful dining experience. I went with a friend on a Tuesday night. The place was all women except the two of us once the early bird families were done. Service was attentive. They have vegetarian options, which I took advantage of with a burger. It was crowded. My only gripe was I had to wait for a parking space.
