Disgusting. Rat jumped into my food. The food was everything but decent. Service sucked as I had to wait 2 hours. Don't get me started on the ambiance stains on the carpet, suspicious people, and a literal spot of mold in the booze cabinet. 1 star.

Waited forever to get food, then waited again for silverware! Food was waaaay too salty. Couldn’t eat it. I know they’re busy but this wasn’t good altogether.

Nice place and great help working there but food was expensive and not very good. The prime rib comes in two sizes small and large. It should have said small and really small. Meat was also very tough even served medium rare. Potatoes weee cold and baked potato wouldn’t even melt butter. I expected more for a $45 meal.

Great choices very good food. Sat in the pub and ate but it was not overly busy Monday evening.was able to watch a little sports on the TV and just relax.

You would think in cattle country the chef would know the difference between a flank steak and a ribeye. I got charged $32 dollars for a steak that was worse than any steak I've ever had before n my life. At 830 on a Saturday night they were out of steaks, potatoes, ranch dressing, and other things. Don't waste your time or money. McDonald's would of been a better choice by far.

My husband would give this restaurant a 4 because his Reuben was better than most. But my Cobb salad came up short. It was made with a bagged iceberg mix rather than romaine. The chicken was freshly grilled which is ideal, but the bacon and tomatoes were not very flavorful. We had a molten chocolate dessert which was not as hot as you usually find.

The food was very disappointingThe salad with steak on it had old yellow greens and extremely wilted other greens. The Mediterranean salad had bits of the Cobb salad on the plate (egg and cheddar cheese) so not sure why a clean plate wasn't used. We both ate the meat (we were hungry-and it was good) and didn't touch the greens on either salad The service was good- but slow- everything took a long time- maybe just because they didn't have enough servers. We were told that she would take care of the bill- took 20% off. I would say very disappointing dinner overall. Nice ambiance outside on patio.

I ordered an Agrodulce Salad and the steak was tremendous but there were numerous pieces of old lettuce and slimy lettuce that seemed not to be the result of the cooked veggies. I would not have served the meal that way.

I was passing through central Nebraska and stayed in Broken Bow for the night. There weren't many options for dinner so figured I'd give the hotel restaurant a shot - it had some ambience.The entree prices were kind of high, and the appetizers weren't much cheaper. So I settled on a chicken quesadilla with avocado and had a a few mules with it.I have to say I didn't have huge expectations for the quesadilla in central Nebraska, but it was pretty damn good. It was huge and was enough for a filling dinner. More importantly it was just good - a great balance of tortilla, cheese, chicken, and avocado with fresh salsa.They get 5 stars because at the end, when the bill came it was far less than I expected, about $25 with the small happy hour discount.

Has been several months since our last food experience here. B and myself in today for late lunch of burger and salad. Was real good. Nothing amazing and lots of processed parts involved. There are not a lot of eating options in Broken Bow, but this is pretty good.
We spent the day driving the Sandhills Hghwy 2 through Nebraska ending up Sunday night in Broken Bow. We had little hope of a great meal. Most eateries were closed. In fact, at 7 pm, TripAdvisor even said Bonfire was closed but as we drove by we saw activity so in we went. It wasn't crowded and was a pleasant restaurant and bar. We each ordered glass of wine, a reasonable Cabernet and Pinot. We shared the salmon dinner with the veggie du jour and a baked potato. The fish was excellent and well cooked, the veggies lovely and the baked potato fine as well. It was a meal beyond our expectations for the evening. And we then completed dinner with a good creme brulee. Service was friendly but a bit spotty, but it hardly marred the meal

Starting off the menu while small includes enough dishes to make anyone try the place out. I got a steak with a side noodles n salad and all of that was delicious. We didn't stay for desert but what I saw there were some great ones to choose from. 5/5 would recommend.

Charming setting. Excellent food! Straightback wooden booth seating. Great service. No one wiped tables between customers.

We eat at Bonfire Grill 8-10 times each year. Last week we hosted 12 friends and all ordered off the menu. Three ordered the 10 oz NY Strip, one ordered the salmon. The NY Strips were each 1/4” to 3/8” thick, charred on the outside, and you had to use your imagination to make it taste like NE beef. VERRRY DISAPPOINTED!! The salmon order (this person orders salmon regularly at BG) was smaller than normal and a little dry. While the other meals appeared and tasted like normal, I would NOT recommend ordering a steak or salmon, I know I will not. However…the service was great!!

Came here on a whim and ordered the 12 oz prime rib with Veggies and Mashed potatoes. The prime rib was up to par and was juicy. I ordered it medium and it actually came out medium. Medium is different everywhere you go but I guess what I think is medium and they think is medium are the same so lucky me. The veggies are seasoned well and are soft not to soft and not to hard. I also like the mashed potatoes that came with it. Over all i would give it 5 stars.
