"After a two week visit to Europe we were craving Mexican food. Jet lag had me starving but unable to eat the texas sized portions this great state is known for, my daughter ready to eat all the foods. So we ordered a starter Elotes Botaneros (Fourpieces of grilled corn on the cob covered in a tangy cream sauce and queso fresco. And two main dishes a small bowl of Sopa deTortilla (crisp corn tortilla chips, avocado, chipotle pepper and Muenster cheese and Enchiladas Verdes (Three soft rolled corntortillas filled with chicken guisada, tomatillo sauce, with red rice and refried beans. We we?re served chips, salsa andrefried beans, which I must say this is only the second restaurant I?ve been to that serves beans with the chips the other beingin Arizona. The salsa was delicious. The Elotes were sour, I love a little lemon or lime on them but these were so sour theywere almost inedible. I wouldn?t order a again. The soup was delicious, and presented beautifully, almost to be made to yourtaste, which could have been done with the Elotes by perhaps providing the lemom/lime to add as you wish. My daughter reallyenjoyed her Enchiladas and devoured the plate. My only other issue giving this restaurant a 4 instead of 5 star is we wereseated at a table that was getting dripped on by the A/C, avoidable by scooching over a bit but there were other tables we couldhave been seated at. I would also say it?s a very pricy location, especially for lunch, but it is La Cantera. Other than thatwe had great service and a manager came to ask how it was and was very professional and polite. I mentioned the leak and heapologized profusely."

"It was my wife's birthday and she chose Firebirds. I made reservations through OpenTable and when we promptly arrived they had our table (an excellent one) ready. The atmosphere is incredible. Just a gorgeous restaurant. All the staff including hosts and servers were well dressed and looked sharp. Our server was Nick, whom I recommend asking for. He did a great job! We both ordered Double Black Diamond cocktails and enjoyed them immensely. We ordered lobster and spinach dip with tortillas. Tortillas were light, crispy and warm, the way they should be. The dip was warm, savory and not overly fishy despite being loaded with nice chunks of lobster. Delicious. The salads came and my wife had a vinaigrette and I had ranch. There was some kind of nut in the salad, not sure what kind which I didn't care for and those with allergies should be aware of. But my wife commented on how much she loved them. The salads were also offered with fresh ground pepper which was a nice touch. She ordered the surf and turf which she said was amazing and prepared as she requested. It sure looked great, with a very large lobster tail. I had baby back ribs with a baked potato and fresh fruit. The potato was a little overdone but still very good. The ribs were very tender and delicious. The accompanying fruit was good as well as the fresh bread. We were both so full we didn't order dessert. Nick boxed up my wife's leftovers and was prompt with the check. Great service. We will be back again for sure. Thanks Nick and Firebirds for making my wife's birthday a memorable success!"
