Firebirds Wood Fired Grill

I went here after having it recommended to me by some foodies at the hospital  I was working at.

The decor was great, it was quite loud inside, almost too loud to hear the 6 people at my table. The wait staff was pretty good.

I ordered the filet and baked potato, with the homemade lemonade. The lemonade was great, I would get that again. The filet was lack luster though. I was bored with it as well as the potato. It was cooked right just didn't have much flavor leaving me disappointed with a pretty big bill.

The carrot cake was good though, it was a large serving, enough for 2.

I had been to the Firebirds locations in Durham and Raleigh, so I knew what to expect. Me and my friend had originally planned to go to the nearby Cheddar's, but the overflow crowd waiting outside of that place indicated a long wait and thus finding Firebirds close by was a godsend! The shopping area where this restaurant is very nice and convenient to get to.

I ordered the steak sandwich and as another reviewer indicated it is a good sized piece of steak on a bun. The steak was cooked just as I requested (medium), and was seasoned well (maybe too well) so that no other seasoning or steak sauce was needed. The steak fries that came as a side were on point as well.

Firebirds is a nice upscale restaurant with good choices on steak, and seafood. There menu is not huge like some chains, but what they do offer is done really well.

I had the peppercorn sirloin..Wow!was it peppery!Good size cut though.Nice bread(pita?) proir to the meal. Pretty good meal overall,but the servers did not seem very happy and and maybe a bit snobby? Maybe it was just me..It is a higher priced resteraunt.Couple beers,sirloin steak and a salad $40 for 1 person.Ill go again though...
