    Was very impressed with the food and drinks and ambience. The server was excellent and we had a great time. It was a little louder than expected but that is the only tiny thing I can think of or maybe my hearing is going bad LOL!

    This was my first time at Firebirds and it was a great experience. Service was great, enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was just fantastic. I had the prime rib and it was perhaps the best I have eaten in a long time. We had to wait for 30 minutes past our reservation and the manager gave us some free appetizers. We didn't mind the wait no matter. Looking forward to our next visit.

    Dined at Eddie Merlot’s restaurant for our wedding anniversary. Everything was perfect. Seated immediately (had reservation), hostess staff were friendly. The meal experience was first class…our server was experienced, and his attentiveness to us was exceptional. Food, drinks and desert was excellent. We always go back for these reasons.

    We have been here a few times. The food was decent this time. The drinks were good. The service started okay and then went downhill halfway through from our server and we were not the only table having issues. We will go back, but it is because of location and drinks.
