We always go to Fire at least once each summer to enjoy dinner on the patio and last night was the night. We had a great time as always.
You can't make a reservation for the patio so you just never know if a table will be available. We got lucky...thank you hostess. They have a wonderful wine list so we started with a delicious Nickel and Nickel wine. Our server, Mark, was fabulous about nicely spacing out everything. Our starters were the heavenly squash blossoms that were probably the best we've had. And, the amazing 18 hour pork which was a party in your mouth.
I enjoyed the whole fish for my entree and it was wonderful. Unfortunately my husband's pork chop was very well done and needed to be sent back. We never send food back, but it was way too cooked. They graciously brought another which was tasty.
It was nice to see Chef Katz chatting with everyone- those who he knew and everyone else. He was very concerned about getting the pork chop right. It is so nice to see that level of caring and service.
We were quite surprised to see the chop removed from the bill. Our server said there was just too much hoopla that he removed it. Unexpected, but certainly nice.
All in all a delightful evening at Fire. Looking forward to our next visit.
