I had the Candelite BBQ Burger and fries which were both amazing. The pub cheese on the burger and the BBQ seasoning on the fries were especially nice touches!

Me and my partner were gumbo, and it was anything but a gumbo. This was literally some overcooked burnt roux there is no lick of any type of okra, celery, onions, or bell pepper. The things that are pretty much what is called the Trinity goes into a gumbo. The flavor was just literally better burned through with some old. I guess it was some roast or something we’re thrown in there and they said there were sausages. I didn’t get in a pile of bland rice. That’s all it is please do not waste your money on this item. Maybe other things at the store are good but this needs to come off the menu that it’s just this is just sad.

Pretty disappointing to be honest. We came in shortly after 9. Posted closing was 10. Multiple tables in the restaurant. We were immediately informed the kitchen would be closing soon and so we placed our drink, appetizer, main and dessert order all at once. Cheese curds and pizza were good. Mac n cheese was literally cold. Like not microwaved long enough. Skillet cookie which was the item that sold us on stopping in was way over cooked and not warmed enough to even melt the ice cream. The server dropped our check before all our food was even out then stared at us till we paid the check.

I love this place. Plus they are SO EASY TO WORK WITH when you want to host a private event. Highly recommend for youth sports banquets and the like. It is not easy to find a place that is so accommodating and lets you use the AV equipment for free (to show game film or season slideshows etc.).

Great server. Sports bar atmosphere. Excellent smash burger fries just ok. PBR always makes me happy. Most places do t have it.

Vince, our server, was very attentive and kept a close watch on us. The food is always good - I get the veggie wrap (minus spinach) with chicken and the veggies are cooked to perfection. The Hamburger is what a real hamburger should look and taste like. Glad we made the reservation, tho the place was less crowded than I expected when we got there but filled up quickly. We've never had a bad meal or experience when we eat at the Firehouse Grill.

I've been using Firehouse for catering pizza at work events for a while now and they are consistently fantastic. Molly and Pat are very friendly, responsive, and easy to work with, and their delivery drivers are communicative and nice. I only get the leftovers so can't say too much about the taste (the pizza holds up well cold!) but the salad always looks fresh and the pizza smells delicious. They're more expensive than large pizza chains, of course, but well worth the money - supporting local, talking to knowledgeable staff, and the quality of the ingredients. Plus, they have more vegetarian pizza options on their menu than other places. They are very much well within the affordable price of catering and I have recommended them to colleagues in other NU departments. I've never attended an event at Firehouse but have been told the ambiance/atmosphere is a hit, and I absolutely believe it!

Meh! Last time we were there it was much better. Fish and chips were soggy. Nachos were flavorless. Service was just OK.

I took my mother there last night. We were actually looking to eat steaks, but there was only one steak item (flank steak).
We had 2 burgers and one ice tea, our bill was over $50 (not including tips). The 1/2lb burgers were just ok, and we both got garlic mash potatoes for our one side. The garlic mash was terrible! My ice tea, had no ice,
and I had to order a cup of ice.
Overall just a disappointing experience.

First time going to firehouse and it was amazing. The outside patio was so much fun and dog friendly. I had the fish and chips which was great, all the food was good, especially the cheese curds and the pretzel. This will be my new go to spot went in Evanston

Good Detroit style pizza, very friendly service, quite/quaint location. Loved that they had fire engine toys for kids to play with. Would go back again.

The food was bland and overpriced, the service was terrible even though we were one of only two tables inside. Would not recommend.
