Cool mountain air. A crackling wood fire. The sizzle of the grill. And the spark of great conversation. Those aren't just the ingredients for a great meal. They're the soul of Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, a restaurant dedicated to the world's oldest method of cooking - and the most satisfying. Inspired by the bold flavors and tradition of live fire cooking in the West, the first Firebirds called itself a "Rocky Mountain Grill." But not so long afterward, the restaurant changed its name to Firebirds Wood Fired Grill. Because at its core, what makes Firebirds' scratch cooking so delicious - and inspires everything from the menu to its hospitality and décor - isn't a place. It's the fire itself. Firebirds has come a long way since the early days. Not only is the menu broader, the ambiance more polished and the value greater than ever, today Firebirds Wood Fired Grill serves guests across the country. But some things never change - like Firebirds' commitment to quality and freshness and its passion for introducing guests to the primal pleasure of meats, seafood and vegetables grilled over a blazing wood fire. From Firebirds' locally sourced hardwoods to its unique cooking techniques, everything Firebirds does honors the power of the flame. Because wood fired grilling brings people together. And its bold flavors set Firebirds apart.
