Firebird, a grill-driven Vietnamese powerhouse packed with flame-licked flavours, introducing an entirely new concept to its vibrant stable of South-East Asian restaurants.

The market fish and chicken are must haves. Desserts can be a mixed bag. If you’re with elderly people don’t stay here past 7:30, it gets super dark/cold/loud

As our main course got served to us at 7:20 where we were advised we needed to vacate our table at 7:45. It was completely unnecessary as we would have finished our food in plenty of time and if they were so pressed about time they should have served us our food sooner. We felt like we were to rush what should have been a pleasant date night. Then upon paying our bill we were advised they moved the booking elsewhere and we could stay. I used to work in hospitality and never would advise a table to hurry up unless they were absolutely no more seats available and they were within 10 minutes of the next booking. There were plenty other tables available to accommodate the following booking as they managed to move their table in the first place.

Loved the place. Really original food. Very good quality. Every dish a winner. The waiter made fabulous suggestions. The duck, the calamari, the qual eggs, the scallops, the stir fry vegetables. Couldn't decide which was the best dish!
