Steel & Rye Team to Open Prairie Fire in Brookline's Coolidge Corner

A new restaurant is on its way to one of the busiest parts of Brookline, and it has a connection to a popular upscale spot in Milton.

According to a job post within the bostonchefs.com site, chef Brendan Joy and the team at Steel & Rye are planning to open Prairie Fire in Coolidge Corner, with the restaurant having a large wood-burning oven and the menu offering regional fare, with charred vegetables, local shellfish, and wood-fired pizza being a few options. The post mentions that the focus will be on "simple yet thoughtful food" that is "rooted in classical technique" while also "preserving, fermenting, brining, and cooking with fire everyday." No address has been given as of yet, and it is not known exactly when Prairie Fire might open, so stay tuned for updates.

Steel & Rye, which first opened in Milton in 2012, is known in part for its inventive New American fare along with its classic and modern cocktails. The Eliot Street restaurant is housed in a former ambulance garage.
