We visited in between lunch and dinner and had our choice between both menus. We went with the ribeye meatballs and pepperoni pizza. The ribeye meatballs were delicious and served with grilled bread, a delicious tomato sauce, and balsamic vinegar. The pizza was cooked in front of us in a wood fired grill. The cheese on the pizza and the pepperoni were just so delicious, and the crust was perfectly thin and crunchy where it’s supposed to be. We had the banana bread pudding, which was a seasonal special. Everything was so so delicious! The place itself was located in what seemed to be a beautifully renovated old fashioned gas station. Think industrial with cozy wood everywhere. Our waiter was fantastic. We will definitely return!

There were six of us and we tried almost everything on the lunch menu and it was all delicious, fresh, flavorful and the portions are extremely generous! We had crab cakes that were out of this world amazing and the meatballs for appetizers, they were moist and well seasoned. We had the crab chowder (excellent) and the chicken salad, burger, pork belly pastrami, brisket blt -all incredible sandwiches and the shrimp fettucini (the pasta is made fresh you can tell) There was no space for dessert but we did have several of the blueberry lemonade Martinis (they probably have a name for it but it was perfect!) We'll be back! Keep up the great food, we gave the chef cheers and applause before we left...it was that good!
What a wonderful place you have here. The staff is solid an friendly and the food is 5 star. We came a little later and after enjoying a huge ribeye crab cakes the manager came to visit and asked how things were. We thanked him for a lovely time and that we enjoyed Anthony as our server. After paying our bill a loud man started hollering at the poor little guy behind the bar. The manager quickly stepped in and handle the situation. The man and 2 ladies looked drunk and were probably upset before they came in. The manager and guy behind the bar were quite cordial with this older man and had him leave. We loved everything and will be back.
The meatballs were fantastic! The Chicken, short rib Mac and cheese were so good! Chef Tracey is an amazing chef! Highly recommend (The music was great also) ���
Wonderful atmosphere (sat at bar in front of brick pizza oven), delicious and creative food, smooth house wine, tasty craft beer and entertainment by knowledgeable and spontaneous chef and staff! We will be back.....again! �

People mentioning bad service MUST come back. Place is definitely NOT understaffed. We sat at the bar and our mouths were watering from everything being prepared right in front of us; everyone moving plates out quickly too so patrons didn't have a long wait. Our food was delicious, our server was great. Place is awesome overall. PS Fancy pig pizza made by Miss Ashley is addictive.
Hats off chef!
One of THE BEST burgers I’ve ever had! The grilled cheese sandwich is like no other, and the carrot cake was delicious! The staff is also very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is on point! Yes, 5 stars!
Came upon this Tomball gem after BB tourney with friends. All I can say is “WOW”! I enjoyed a petit filet salad...requested rare filet ... cooked perfectly drizzled w/ balsamic reduction accompanied by a chilled salad of tasty bits lightly tossed with bleu cheese dressing...I highly recommend.
What’s for dinner?? BonFire grill !! �
Four of us tried BonFire for the first time. 3 got a different Special and 1 had Pizza. Best pizza of my life (can you san Bacon Jelly???).
All the Specials were incredible. We all dug in before snapping a picture and well, you know how the rest goes. All gone before thinking of sharing with the FB crowd.
Best Mac & Cheese ever. Great desert.
We'll be back!

Food and wine is awesome. I’ve read mixed reviews on the service but we had a great experience with Cody as our waiter. We were actually at a different restaurant but left after being ignored for 20 min. Bonfire Grill did not disappoint.
I came for lunch and had the Cuban Pork Belly Wrap and homemade gelato. It was nothing less than culinary heaven. The staff is absolutely incredible as well.
Just had a visit there on Wednesday with the mission trip group I'm with. They were able to accommodate our large group of 52, "Heart 4 Texas" volunteers. Food was great and service was fantastic. Will definitely recommend to anyone I know going that way to stop in.
Great place to have drinks and dinner! We had a fiftieth birthday happy hour and the staff was amazing!
Had the Brisket nachos. Was very good. Little Spicy, but good. Brisket was very tender and good flavor.
Food was great!! But we sat at the bar and the service was HORRIBLE!! Took forever to get service never got asked if we wanted more drink with our entree, so we are a pizza with no beverage!
Very quaint and cozy spot. We didn’t come to eat but we sat next to the brick oven for the pizza’s. They made them right there by the bar. They looked Awesome. We’ll be back. Service was good and friendly. They do have a patio as well. Oh, happy hour on Saturday 3 to 6!
Loved that they offered local farm produce and chef specialties. The pizzas were hot from the oven with amazing flavor. We had the creamy chicken pizza that had white sauce, spinach and chicken. Perfect crust and toppings. Tried the brisket ravioli and shared. It had an incredible mild spice from the jalapeño and super flavorful cheese sauce with the smoky brisket. Delicious. We also nibbled on the chef’s special watermelon beet salad. I’m not a big fan of beets, but with the temperature outside it sounded like a great combo. I was blown away by the scrumptious combo of golden beets that were a little bit sweet, purple beets with vinegar in which the fresh goat cheese paired perfectly, and the watermelon with maybe a balsamic glaze with radish. This dish screamed SUMMER! My only complaint is that is was a little too warm inside the place, but with temperatures outside of 103 plus they get a pass. I recommend this grill!!! (The lemon drop was spot on too!)
We had the most amazing experience tonight!
We had the brisket pizza, the wedge salad and the cream burlee. Best creme brulee I’ve ever had. Everything was delicious!
Tyler was wondering and made great drinks. I highly recommend. We will be back soon!
Quaint little restaurant in downtown Tomball. When I say little the max occupancy is 49 (best to make a reservation). Everyone seemed very friendly, we were greeted immediately. We sat at the bar and received immediate service from the bartender who recommended a great white wine. After reviewing the menu we decided to split the meat lovers brick oven pizza which we thought was excellent. We will definitely be back.
Great place! First time visiting, and it was a hit! The food is made from scratch, and the flavors are amazing. Good customer service from the waitress. I can't remember her name, but she made excellent recommendations.
The only thing I kind of thought was that it could be better. A lady (look like the owner or manager because she was dressed differently) took sitting assignments for a while, and she was short with people, meaning that it was not cordial with a greeting, she got menus, sat people down and that was about it. No hi or welcome.......I saw this from her at least 5 different times. Maybe a tough day....?
The little things count to make a good experience a great experience and in my opinion, especially in a high-end restaurant.
Other than this specific honest review, this place is amazing. The service and the food are delicious and we will return in the future.....also make sure to make a reservation ahead of time!

Located in historic downtown Tomball, Bonfire Grill is a charming bar & grill offering comfort food and brunch classics with modern twists. The restaurant boasts a cozy atmosphere with an open kitchen concept, featuring a wood-fired pizza oven. Although the Texas heat might deter some from the large patio seating area, it would be a lovely spot in cooler weather.
Notable dishes include the perfectly cooked Creole-Cajun BBQ shrimp and grits, and the well-executed avocado toast. Both are testament to Bonfire Grill's ability to deliver on flavor and presentation. The service, while not exceptional, is decent enough to ensure a pleasant dining experience.
Prices are reasonable, with menu items ranging from $10 to $20, making it an affordable option for both brunch and casual dining. One area that could use improvement is the restaurant's online presence. The website has several dead links, and the social media accounts do not point to the correct locations.
Despite this minor hiccup, Bonfire Grill comes recommended for those seeking a cozy spot for brunch or a casual meal in Tomball. Its unique take on comfort food and relaxed atmosphere makes it a place worth visiting.
Delicious and interesting food. A small but very nice restaurant in downtown Tomball. We got there early enough to eat and drink completely off of the Happy Hour menu so the bill was very reasonable. We’ll be back for sure!
Bonfire grill is the coolest addition to downtown Tomball. Their kitchen staff and front of hous staff is amazing! They are knowledgeable, personable, have great customer service, and are super fast. They are attentive to your needs and able to provide you with thr best dining experience. We sat at the chefs table and I felt like I was in the middle of a reality cooking show. The food is absolutely delicious and you can tell alot of heart and soul was put into creating the menu. The drinks are excellent and on another level. I wish there were more/different dessert options, but the ones they have are yummy. We will definitely go back especially to try brunch!!
Absolutely love this place! Food is great and you can watch the chefs prepare it.great atmosphere best drinks and love the staff
So this place is great for couples and adults but the menu is very limited for kids unfortunately. We went on a whim and although the service was great, we were disappointed in the menu. We will try again for maybe date night 🤍.
The blueberry mojito & old fashion was really good though 😊.
