We have come here many times since their soft opening and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent and the Double Black Diamonds are hard to pass up. If you like a good steak the cooks really know how to make a medium rare entree.

Service was wonderful - attentive but not intrusive, anticipated need refills on drinks. Food was very good. Some of the fruit salad was hard and tasted of onion. Decaf coffee tasted stale.
July 2025
Firebirds is one of our regular haunts when we're looking for a nicer meal, and it has never disappointed, until this visit. Our party of three went for Father's Day. While my son and husband enjoyed their meals, mine was dismal. Son ordered the Cajun ribeye (his only complaint was that "medium rare" turned out more rare, but he didn't mind). Husband got the prix fix with chicken tortilla soup, the shrimp and salmon entree and creme brulee cheesecake dessert....
