Ordered the squid ink Campanelle. It was delicious. Sat at the bar. Friendly server. Friendly host. Nice ambiance. They have casual outside seating with picnic tables. Like a beer tent minus the tent. Need to be redecorated. Maybe nice for families w small kids?

This restaurant is fantastic. I got there early after work, Wonderful menu options compounded with amazing service. The chef was quite accommodating with my fish allergy. I had the farm greens, broccoli rabe with fennel vinaigrette and the mushroom pizza. Danny, my server was professional, knowledgeable about the menu and was able to make suggestions/modifications based on my preferences. I can’t stress enough how positive of experience Prairie Fire was for me. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend. Ask for Danny. He is the key to unlocking Prairie Fire.

This place is the best pizza in Boston. The vibes are impeccable for date nights, drinks with friends or family dinner. The service was incredible, with the waiter even picking up my napkin and folding it when it fell when I got up to use the restroom. They have a full bar and make any cocktail you want, and they make it well. The lighting sets an incredible mood and the wood fire oven is just so cool! They even have wood they use for the oven all around the restaurant! Love it here and will be back.

Great atmosphere with delicious food and drinks! Vibrant bar area with high top seating and friendly staff. Enough vegetarian options both in pastas and pizzas from the wood fired oven!

You know, as a New Yorker I didn’t expect to love their pizza but it is so so good!! Can’t wait to try more of their oven roasted stuff. Drinks and wine both great. Very friendly service. Definitely the kind of place that impresses family and friends.

Delicious!! Every dish surprised us at each turn with vibrant complexity and very excellent seasoning. The menu felt very seasonal. There were a surprising amount of vegetable dishes and veggie forward dishes that packed really satisfying punches of flavor and texture.

Very delicious pizza but was a little burned. Desserts were very delicious too! The atmosphere is perfect for a romantic or more formal meet up bit my friends and I felt very comfortable there too.

Walking inside, the restaurant smells delicious. Honestly, I initially considered going somewhere else because it looked so dark inside from the street. But I’m glad we stopped in. The service was excellent. My drink was delicious. The toast with the mousse appetizer only provided the surface area to eat half the mousse, but our wonderful server brought us more toast. The gnocchi was more like polenta than the gnocchi you’d expect but, being forewarned, I was not disappointed. The carrot cake was so sweet that it was almost like a cake textured cookie. Overall, a little pricey but a treat.

Best Pizza in Boston except it’s in Brookline! Prairie Fire never fails They’re flavors are amazing We started with Wellfleet Oysters and then Mushroom Toast and then a wood fired cabbage with an amazing crema sauce. We shared the sausage & fennel pizza and margherita pizza The crust is thin, crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside like a good sour dough Just the right amount of sauce, cheese and toppings The sausage and fennel was complemented by a stracciata cheese and the margherita had a stringy mozzarella. With a wonderful selection of wines, our dinner was complete The service was great and I was able to park on the street in front of the restaurant We took our nephew from Germany and he exclaimed it was the best pizza he ever had!

The wood-fired pizza with fennel sausage was excellent – the sausage was especially tasty. Service was good even though the restaurant was busy. Not being from the area we didn’t realize reservations were recommended, but we were able to sit at a little counter by the front desk/front door which was actually surprisingly pleasant and cozy.
