At 11 Woodfire, fire is more than just a cooking method—it’s the soul of the restaurant. Every dish is prepared over open flames, hot embers, or smoldering charcoal, allowing the ingredients to develop deep, smoky flavors that can’t be achieved through modern cooking techniques.
What sets 11 Woodfire apart is its commitment to high-quality ingredients.

Whether it’s succulent Australian Wagyu, delicate Atlantic seabass, or farm-fresh vegetables, each item is treated with care, respect, and the perfect amount of fire.
But it’s not just about the food—it’s about the experience. The restaurant’s open-fire kitchen creates a warm, inviting atmosphere where guests can see, smell, and feel the cooking process. The rustic yet elegant ambiance, combined with the rich flavors of fire-grilled dishes, makes dining at 11 Woodfire an unforgettable culinary journey.
