I've walked by this place a half dozen times and have never given it a second glance. The only reason we stopped in this time was that it was Christmas Eve and the flu is running rampant in the Charlotte area and when I gazed into the food court it quickly transformed into a hipster night club where all the famous germs hang out. Long lines with big germ bouncers while inside the all the who's who of Germville were drinking, dancing, and putting the moves on each other! We immediately looked for a cleaner and climate controlled safer environment in which to dine. We opted for the Fireside.
Not much to say. The menu is limited and nothing spectacular and is somewhat pricey for what you get. My daughter had the portabella burger and I had the parmesan crusted Mahi. My Mahi was fresh and well cook but lacked any real flavors. My daughter seemed to enjoy her portabella which was well put together. Our waiter was pleasant and knowledgeable and provided us with fairly quick service. Probably won't return to a firebirds, just don't think it is worth the money. I believe there is way better food out there in that price range or less. On the up side; we did get our valet ticket validated. $5.00 is $5.00!
