I've lived near Shaker Square for more than 2 years and I've never made my way over to Fire. I came here with my parents for Sunday brunch (to celebrate my birthday). This review is going to include my parents' opinion too! :P
"Speechless" - Dad, as he had his Fire Benedict
"Yum!" - Mom, as she had her Crispy Chicken Livers
" " - Me. I just wanted to finish my vegetable frittata
My mom had loose leaf chai, which she enjoyed. My hot chocolate was very rich and tasty. We started off with the clay oven bread with cinnamon - a nice start to the meal. I think my favorite was the crispy chicken livers - great mix of flavors (savory and sweet) and very crave-worthy for a breakfast. Delicious! My vegetable frittata included fresh vegetables (eggplant) and was served along with greens. I appreciated the use of local & fresh ingredients, but wasn't necessarily blown away. My dad's fire benedict was pretty ok.
We enjoyed the decor - very simple, modern. The service was great - complimentary valet (on Sun at least) and the waiter gave us some helpful suggestions for our meal. Unfortunately, we miscalculated the tip and it ended up being a little skimpy. Sorry David! Your service was great.
