Prairie Fire – American
Bathed in the warm, amber glow of its namesake hearth, Prairie Fire invites guests into a soulful space where the crackle of the wood-burning oven sets the stage for a vibrant, farm-inspired feast. The kitchen coaxes deep, smoky depths from the flames, pairing charred oysters Rockefeller and crusty sourdough with the bright, delicate snap of Maine bluefin tuna tartare and earthy chicory salads. It is a celebration of rustic refinement, where the timeless art of open-flame cooking transforms seasonal ingredients into a cozy yet sophisticated dining experience.
