Easily the best overall fine dining experience in Sacramento (we love several others as well, it’s just that The Firehouse is one-of-a-kind). The ribeye special tonight was especially exceptional. We keep coming back for the ambience and personal service, with consistent attention to detail, and no one else has a setting like this (not to mention the best wine list outside of Napa).

I brought my husband here for his birthday. From the moment we walked in, everything was lovely. They had printed his name and happy birthday on the menus. They brought us complementary Cava to toast his birthday. I am a vegetarian and I loved my appetizer and entrée. My husband loved everything he had as well. The staff are so kind and welcoming. This was our first time dining here. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for a lovely evening.

This was our second time visiting the restaurant and it was as good or better than our first visit. Servers are attentive and knowledgeable. Food is excellent. There was a large party near us which is the only reason that I said that the noise level was a bit high. Fantastic restaurant!
