Our server was fantastic (I didn’t catch her name - she had beaded earrings though) and the food was great. My husband’s eggs were not how he wanted them however he still enjoyed his meal. It got louder as more people arrived however I would definitely recommend!

When we got there we told the server we didn’t want to be rushed and we were there for a nice meal we ordered appetizers and about a minute after she came over to get mains ordered … we explained again we wanted some time between our appies and main courses and she assured us that would be the case. While we were still eating our appies our food arrived making a huge cluster for the table and not what we had asked for. It was as if she disappeared at some points as we had drinks sitting empty for quite awhile and we felt completely rushed throughout the whole experience. I’ve come here before and was satisfied with service however this time was not pleasant at all.

My 12 inch ribeye steak was delicious. And the paste tatoes with asparagus (erect thick grass sticks for those who didn't know) and carrots was scrumptious). BTW Calc is short for calculator.

Fireside Grill was one of my all time favourite spots and always had incredible service however yesterday was not the case. I truly felt my friend and I were totally forgotten ignored) and I literally after a long wait for some water simply got up and served myself! I do not expect that lack of service from Fireside ~ I do want To add that I did see James working however he was not our server and the tables he served received his 110% customer service ~ I don't think we got 50%. Their food was outstanding however with the cost of everything today if customer service is missing that is a major miss. :-(

Lovely olde world space with experienced servers. Food met expectations. Prices reasonable. Perfect for tourists and large groups. Patio and smaller rooms might be better for a more intimate setting. A few steps up to main entrance. Main dining room level for easy access.
