My date and I had lunch at Firehouse. We sat upstairs/ outside. There was one other table occupied by a couple and a man at the bar. There was only one waitress serving upstairs. My date ordered an alcoholic drink and we both ordered lunch. I asked for no onions on my burger. The waitress did not write our order down on a piece of paper or tablet. Once she walked off, I told my date there is a decent chance our order was going to get screwed up. The food runner brought our appetizer, still no drink. We finished our appetizer and he brought out the lunch. I asked him about my date’s drink. I also realized there were onions on my burger. He notified the waitress who came over with the drink and apologized. She brought me an extra plate for my onions that I removed from the burger and told her I didn’t need it. We finished our meals and the waitress brought the check. She told us she removed my date’s drink from the bill. I still gave her a decent ($10) tip even though I thought the service was terrible. I’m not impressed by a server trying to remember our order and then screwing up a drink and part of an order. NOT HAPPY.

Probably more suitable for a younger crowd. We prefer an environment a little quieter when we have dinner. The type of music and the sound level didn’t please us.

The food and service was outstanding! We had a party of 7 for a Birthday Party, and the server (I now can’t remember her name) made us all feel really special. She was quick and helpful and the food came out quickly too. Everyone’s food was delicious! Def going there again.
