Service was impeccable from start to finish. We had never been there before so we asked about servers recommended entrees. I wasn't very hungry so I had the mushroom truffle soup and a salad. My hub had bacon wrapped meatloaf. Everything was delicious. The server was so attentive... definitely coming back. I promise I'll be more hungry next time.

We were in town to get certified to teach mountain biking level 1. The last night we decided to try this place. The menu sounded great and they had wine! Let's break it down
Atmosphere - very charming restaurant, clean and friendly.
Service - our server was very helpful. She recommended the creamy seafood pasta dish I got and it was 🔥. She was quick to refill our drinks and always had a smile.
Cost - entrées were reasonably priced
Food - everything was so so good! my seafood pasta was delicious! Tom got a burger (typical!) and he said it was cooked perfectly and very good. Our friend Angela

They refused to take a reservation for our group. We told them we would be willing to split into two groups (which met their group size guidelines), but they said they didn’t want us getting up and mingling between the tables. We are adults, we know how to act in a restaurant. The person on the phone said she would talk to her manager and call us back as they never did. We finally called them back. Poor customer service. Saddest part is that our group are good tippers for good service. Their loss.

Sad to say it was the worst place I have ever eaten, & I'm not a picky eater or ever leave bad reviews! But I'm sorry, the meatloaf tasted like Alpo dog food, the chicken breast my son ordered was so dry he couldn't even cut thru it, & my baked fish was so burnt on the bottom I had to scrape it off to eat it. Gordon Ramsey would have fun at this place!!

We came in from walking most of the day we were tried and of course thirsty. Lol She keep the water and tea coming. We loved the atmosphere and the food was wonderful.

We had a family birthday dinner here last night. The service was excellent! There were 4 in our party and we ordered ribeyes and New York strip strips. By far the best cooked steaks in this area. We've tried the high end restaurants in the area and I'm not sure how Flame seasons and cooks their steaks but they were delicious. Great cuts of meat and seasoned to perfection. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for quality food.

Wow! Talk about accommodation!! These folks are terrific! We had stopped to have dinner on the patio because we had our pooch with us and it began to rain as soon as we were seated. Our server said "oh this won't do" and moved us to the first table INSIDE! Such a great accommodation! I'm so grateful to these kind people.
Their courtyard is very cool and elegant. I totally recommend them even if you don't have a dog.
PLEASE go see these guys when you are looking for good food and great people!!

Poor service - poor quality of food.
Welp, this came as a huge letdown, yet again I wasn't expecting all too much when the waiting staff didn't even show us to the table but just pointed to a spot. Here's where things got interesting, not only did it take way longer than it should have our was unsanitary, subpar and undercooked.
For instance, we had to have a steak sent back 2 separate times because it was fully raw. With this, it was the same piece of meat that had been on someone's plate and just thrown back on the grill (this happened twice). After this, we brought it to

This spot served me a reheated order of lemon- asparagus risotto informing me that it is pre-made. Yes rice can survive being reheated it's not the reheating that caused the problem, but the way that the rice was stored before it was reheated. When I woke up the next morning my whole abdomen was cramping and hurting very bad, I had cold sweats, I threw up and felt dehydrated and very fatigued all day. I had to have assistance getting to the bathroom because it felt as though I was going to black out before I got that stuff out of me. At home we eat 100% Non-gmo I have had zero problems and

Lobster dip is delicious. Catfish big size, nice & crunchy. Service was just ok. Wonderful outdoor area. Superb ambiance inside. Business casual. Nice date spot. Fair priced. Reservations are taken. Ample parking. I hear the shrimp is appetizing. The ribs only served Fridays. They need more specialty drinks, with tequila or cognac. Big wine menu.

Delicious! We've eaten at Flame 5 or 6 times in the last couple years and it's been excellent every time. Tonight I ordered curb-side pickup and we had the Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf, Seafood Tuscano, and Fried Calamari. Every bite was good. It's a bit of a high-end-menu, which is somewhat unique in Carbondale and reminds you of dishes you might find in larger city eateries. The prices are between $15 and $30 a plate and I think that is fair given the quality that I've experienced.
Due to Covid they are serving a limited menu and offering carryout only. I found that they are giving

Recommended by a co-worker so wanted to give it a try. On Thursdays they have 4 course meal, shared with 2 people $50. The meal was delicious. Each person got a salad, shared appetizer, separate entrees and shared dessert. Plus a carafe of sangria! ( Although it tasted more like a mixed drink then sangria, still tasty). Salad: crutons were great. Appetizer was salmon cakes: awesome. Steak was great with small potatoes. Bacon wrapped shrimp was amazing. Dessert was pecan pie. Definitely a cute little place. Go on their website to see other specials! That's how I knew what to ask for because
