Misleading menu

Being on a special diet (ordered by my doctor), I found something I thougt would be good, the ahi tuna served with the garden green salad. Well, when it came out, it was the tuna with a little bit of greens,...

Pretty Good by Sharon S. at InsiderPages

The place is very pretty and it's located just outside the mall area so it's very close to shopping. It's pricey for the food but the portions are very large.

Not really worth it unless you want a Martini

The ambience is beautiful-- wood structuring and it does have that cozy ski lounge feel. You can also see where your food is coming from which I personally like. The food is a different story. I think it's a...

Yelp.com Review - by Dorothy S.

4.0 of 5 stars. First, being in North Carolina, I was reminded of that there are not too many people that look like me! A visit to Firebirds showed me exactly the lack of diversity. However, that did not hinder me...

Good food, good drinks

The food at the restaurant--from the bread to the Cesar salad to the prime rib and potato--were delicious. This was a really good meal. Their drinks are also top notch. I really recommend this place. However,...

The food is fabulous by Paula N. at InsiderPages

The food is fabulous. Depending on where you are seated, you may get to watch the cooks prepare your food. The atmosphere is cozy with a seasonal fireplace. The atmosphere does not top the taste of the food at...

Superb food fairly priced. Highly recommended

We've now been twice to this restaurant and we have been *very* satisfied with both the quality of food and the service. The ribs are to die for and their fries are the best I have eaten. The lighting could do...

Yelp.com Review - by Henry S.

4.0 of 5 stars. Firebirds is a nice alternative to a typical steakhouse. First, the bread here is to die for. I think they must fry it to a certain extent, because it's extremely flaky on the outside and slightly...

Pretentious atmosphere -- mediocre food

We dined at the Firebirds in the new North Hills Mall. The ambience was quite nice; wood beamed ceilings, stuffed moose on the wall and an overall aroma that would make Emeril sit up and notice. The food,...
