    Expected full menu. Other tables also discovered prefixed menu only. We were rushed to order. Staff not fully informed of the menu.

    Valentine’s Day special menu/price was not advertised on Open Table - the only menu available. We have dined here before. Menu price was $130 pp for three courses. Soup was added and price was reduced to $120 pp. A glass of champagne was on in included in price. This price was quite a bit higher than most of the restaurants in the area. Restaurant is cold-every time the door opens a draft comes in. Soup was very good (pea with mushrooms/nuts) but not hot enough. Filet mignon entree was very good. NY steak had mushroom shaped potatoes which were not completely cooked. Two desserts were offered -wait staff brought us one of each without asking which we preferred. The regular menu is definitely preferable. Not advising that there is a special menu misleads the diners. One couple did leave - people only have a certain budget. May return for the regular menu, but never for a special menu.

    Normally we choose Firehouse Bistro because of the quiet ambiance, last nite they were full and it was difficult to hear our table of 4.

    Loved birthday dinner with my hubs! The food was delicious, especially the desserts! They even gave him a dessert with a candle for his birthday. It was a little on the pricier side, but I would definitely go back again.  it’s a super cute venue, not too big and cozy vibe.
