| - Stopped in with my sister after a Sunday afternoon movie... perfectly located right across the street from the theater.
The outside of the building made it look like this was a really nice place to go to enjoy a meal... and what happened on the inside did not disappoint.
We were greeted in a very pleasant manner by the hostess. She welcomed us with a big smile and asked us if we preferred a booth or table, which I personally love having the option. She answered my sister's questions about the delicious looking Pineapple filled decanter on the bar, which apparently is their Pineapple Martini, which I would have loved to try... maybe next time...
My sister and I sat in the dining room and the décor was lovely. It was like being in an upscale hunting lodge. The only thing I didn't like was the big dead head above the fireplace. I get it - hunters hunt and I eat meat, and it's all about population control- ok, ok, but that's for a different website, I still don't like to see heads unless they are perched upon a majestic animal. I'm entitled to my opinion.
She and I shared the ahi tuna appetizer, which was very nicely done and presented. It was served with a nice side of greens, which was delicious. Especially loved the hot mustard sauce it was served with.
I enjoyed the Colorado Chicken salad which had amazing greens, tender juicy chicken, bleu cheese, apples, cranberries, and walnuts. It was super super good and the dressing was perfect.
My sister had the Crab Cake salad and she loved hers, too. She had been to Firebirds a time or two before this and really loved the experiences she had had before.
I'm really glad we stopped in and in the land of restaurants in the Arrowhead area, I really hope this one stays for a long time, I'd really love to try their other dishes!!
