Firebirds Wood Fired Grill Carmel

The imperfect margarita. I saved on holy evening and had a wonderful meal and a fantastic waiter called bobbie. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of ordering the alleged perfect margarita. it was literally the worst margarita I ever had. I don't think it contained tequila, but it seemed to be a straight glass of pure acid mixture. it ended up with me a stomach ache instead of the beautiful warm glow lamp that I usually have after a goat cocktail. it ruined what else was a positive culinary experience. when I waited for my car to warm up. I spoke to two managers to share my thoughts, but I was told in a round, yes, it's mad. so the food and waiter is excellent, but the administration and bar service leave much to be desired.

My head rib was amazing. the waitress was so sweet. Many thanks for making our Christmas evening dinner fantastic.

Dinner was absolutely fantastic. We were beginning to wonder when our server came up she was not interested in waiting on us and was not friendly at all . She was replaced with JD and the whole evening went from questionable to one of the best experience we have had out. He was great. We had the normal menu and things looked good but DJ asked whether we had seen the special menu (original server did not even suggest there was a special menu) and we all had some from the special menu. The meal was fabulous and I would suggest the restaurant to anyone.

The lunch special of choose two is nice.The portions are adequate.

Such a beautiful and happy place for dinner. $88 for a NY Strip and a Salmon dinner plus beer and a custom Old Fashioned, so very reasonable. Love the fireplace and the colorful bar installation. Very busy, but we could easily have a conversation on our booth, so great acoustics! Very comfortable seating. Generous cocktail pour. His NY Strip was well prepared and of good quality, large too. My salmon was very tasty, with a citrus flavor that was very light and I loved it. It is more well done, like I love it, so maybe order less well done if you like it less flaky. I would not order the mixed vegetables again-very undercooked, no flavor, tiny portion. The bleu cheese sauce he ordered for his steak had zero flavor and was liquid, not creamy. He loved his steak fries! BLT salad is a meal in itself and so yummy. Excellent food for the cost. Our server was delightful! There were lots of large crowds and intimate tables, so room for everyone. Well go again. This was our 4th visit in about 4 years.
