Fired Up has great curb appeal. It is exciting to find a place that looks like you will love everything on the menu. However, it all ends there. The servers are a welcoming crew and do their best but at times seem confused or just used to the food not impressing. They do not give any helpful notes and I was served and organic beer when I requested gluten free beer.
I gave the restaurant two visits to conclude I will not return unless just grabbing their truffle fries and wine in the patio. The fries were a nice change with the truffle oil I will give them that. The cob salad was served on a long narrow plate with each ingredient lined up. It was impossible to mix and enjoy the mingling flavours. The ribs were barely hot and had BBQ sauce brushed on to make them look appetizing but it was actually gross. I prefer it cooked with the ribs and sizzling along with them. They tasted dry and oddly not cooked enough so the meat would fall off the bone. Anyway, a huge disappointment for a BBQ joint. Don't bother.
I can only hope the owners rethink their kitchen staff and find someone who can rock some ribs on their stupendous grill facing the sidewalk. Please Fired Up, hear my plea and become the food that you look like you serve.
