| - My first Sunday brunch in Cleveland. Fire's food was tasty, but the service lacked.
My girlyfriend ordered the lemon pancakes with blueberries (light, so tasty, not too much fruit, pretty perfect). As she made her order, our server casually asked, "would you like bread, home fries or [something I forget] with that?" and she answered with "home fries". My turn, the beloved eggs benedict. The hollandaise was sort of thick and the Canadian bacon pretty thin, but it was tasty. I asked if it came with anything and he said a light rocket salad so I also ordered the home fries.
The food arrived, we ate and enjoyed. I had to wait (and ask) for my coffee to be refilled and when the bill came, we found that my friend's pancakes didn't, in fact, come with a side. The server asked in such a way which implied that they did, and all she had to do was pick one. For that price point, it was a definite bottom line bump. Sneaky, Fire.
I would like to return for dinner since it gets such high reviews, but based on my first experience it won't be terribly soon.
