    Another trip to the firehouse that exceeded our expectations in food, quality and service. I love the ambience and the large paintings based in the romanticism period with lavish gold frames. The wheat staff is exceptional at keeping waters filled and plates cleared everything you’d expect from a fine dining experience menu selections were ample, and they always have new specials to look forward to.

    Everyone, from the bartender, to the host, to the wait staff, and the valet was incredible and took such great care of us. Highly recommend not only this location, because it is Old Town, but also the building itself, with such rich history, that our server printed out a 4-5 page document of the history of the restaurant after we asked a few questions about the space. The attention and thoughtfulness of the staff was next level. Great vibes, great people, rich history.

    Disappointing service by the waiter. Had to continue to raise hand for service. Shocked and dismayed that they do not have any Red Zins by glass or half bottle and when asked if they had an open bottle at the bar, he declined to go ask.
