Got several orders of the ahi nachos for the fam for lunch. They were really good! Easy ordering and easy pickup (well, except circling a couple times for a parking spot.) read more

This restaurant has changed names and chefs multiple times over the years. What is remarkable has been the extreme increase in prices since the pandemic. The service is attentive and did not rush us through our meal, but food arriving at the table was relatively slow. The short rib Mac and cheese was creamy but over salted and did not contain much meat ($30). The bao buns were not made on site and were adequate but were not offered with any dipping sauces. Overall the meal was expensive--New York prices--before adding tip and Vermont meal taxes. Be prepared. read more

The food and service is always been exceptional here but be careful if you're unvaccinated other patrons will attack you

Fire Tower is one of the few restaurants located in the ski village in Stratton. The restaurant is right in the heart of the village. It's a perfect place to take your friends and family after a long day of skiing. Their ahi nachos and crab cake was delicious. The Margherita flatbread was also delicious. It gets packed pretty quickly so reservations are recommended. They have really nice cocktails and IPAs. The server was really attentive and friendly. Fire Tower is one of our favorite places in VT. read more

Great service and fantastic food We had the jerk chicken for an appetizer and our entrees were the mushroom ravioli and pan seared chicken. Both were fresh and tasty. We both had sherbet. Awesome place read more

Needed a quick place for dinner after snowboarding on the mountain. On the pricey side. Ordered the wedge salad, kale salad, jerk wings, steak for dinner. Jerk wings - terrific; sauce is delicious; will definitely order again Wedge salad - Very good; would order again Kale salad - ok - would not order again Ny strip steak was undercooked (rare when we ordered medium rare) - would not order again. But the BEST PART were the desserts!!!! Peanut butter chocolate pie was outrageous! Key lime pie sublime says the hubby, I say yummy - I enjoyed the pairing of the peanut butter chocolate with the key lime - sweet, sour and salty all in one - yummmmmmm We also gotthe chocolate cake crusted with Oreo. It was great. Very thick. So delicious!! Service was impeccable Extra dressing not charging 4 because of the overall experience. Food was ok, given the really delicious wings and wedge but on the other hand disappointing kale salad and very expensive and undercooked steak making the value not so great. And then the pie was everything. I'd go again for wings, wedge and pie. read more

Exceedingly rude behavior by bartender / server. This lack of basic courtesy was defended by bar manager when we attempted to address the issue. read more

Probably my favorite restaurant in Stratton Village. Great food, friendly bartenders, and a fairly affordable wine list. Ahi Tuna nachos are a great appetizer. Sit at the bar for a cozy vibe with a low ceiling. read more

Came here after a full day of snowboarding. Food was good. We had the Mac and Cheese and the Chicken Alfredo pizza. Good sized portions. We thought since we were eating by the bar portions would be small but each were pretty large. Good place for après ski. read more

The food here is top notch! We come here every visit to Stratton. The prices are very reasonable for mountain dining. The ahi tuna nachos are phenomenal! Oh my god that wasabi aioli is tasty! The tuna is extremely fresh and it has a fun palette combo since the wonton chips add a nice crunchy element. The jerk wings are some of the best dry rubbed wings I've ever had! Oh my god they have such a nice little kick to them. And the flatbreads come in nice combinations. Get the green mountain hipster. Nice variety of veggies on there. Really goof stuff! The only down side was it seemed the waitress and bartenders were very confused on what a mimosa was. My friend ordered a pomegranate mimosa and somehow the drink came back with no bubbles and with ice in the glass...it was more like a pomegranate sangria. So that was odd and when we called out how this wasn't a mimosa in all standard measures aka sparkling wine and no ice, they insisted there was sparkling wine in there...eventually we got what we wanted but man, a mimosa is like a classic drink that's hard to really interpret so differently. All in all, a great meal! read more

disappointed at entire experience at the fire Tower. Staff Was rude and unaccommodating causing us to end up leaving venue and choosing another place in the Stratton area to dine in due to staff treating our party in such a way that made us so uncomfortable that we felt the need to leave. due to the high priest menu you would think that the staff would be up to the same standards however totally disappointed experience at fire Tower. read more

We were 11 people The food is excellent... period We had burgers, apps, soup, wine , cocktails and all were pleased with the food , service and drinks. Prices appropriate. read more

Phenomenal food (get the venison) and craft cocktails, see G and Mike at the bar, amazing! Peter and Beth amazing job! read more

It's about the time to post my opinion about this establishment. I can't believe how one of my favorite restaurants at Stratton Mountain became the most disgusting and horrible place on the whole mountain! Let's start than: From outside all looks OK maybe except some teenagers sitting on the porch and spitting in one of the fire pits, who cares ? The staff was friendly however, they have no clue about the menu or food they serve, they did't even ask if something was wrong when we left most of the food untouched! The food was simply NOT FRESH and probably prepared days in advance! My fish was smelling so bad I couldn't take one bite. I don't know who is in charge of cleaning ? Sticky tables! Cloudy and greasy glassware! The floor leading to the kitchen is covered in food and grease! The bathroom is like from a horror movie, missing tiles,spider webs, mold, sh..t everywhere!!! Please do not attempt to use it without hazmat suit! I guess the Health Department would shut this place down after experiencing what I did. I would give zero stars. Message to "chef" Max : Shame on you and your staff!!! read more

Quality post skiing pub food. New chef apparently. Food has improved. I had the Local Bowl. A hearty appetizer of spaetzle, sausage and other yummy stuff. My son had a very good burger. Tried the chili. Very good. Nice local Vermont beer selection. Friendly, attentive staff. What more could you want after a long day skiing! read more

I'd have submitted a photo but I actually never got my food. Their vegetarian menu being as small as it is should have some good items. I ordered the flat bread. What I got was disappointed. They were quick to come out and bring water and rolls as we had just finished a 7k race on the mountain. They were friendly and didn't mind that we stank. They even had a specialty menu for the racers there that week. That's where it all ended though for me. They brought out the other four dishes at our table (all of which had a meat component and one was the vegetarian pizza with chicken on it). When mine didn't come out I assumed it would be there shortly. I told my party to eat without me as I didn't want theirs getting cold and we were all very hungry. The waitress came around for the standard "how is everything". I had to stop her before she walked off and inform her that I had never received my food. She walked off and came back stating that it would be 4-5 minutes. I asked that she bring more water and bread while waiting and she did. After she brought the prison meal of bread and water was the last time I saw her. Our friends that arrived about 15 minutes after us and were seated outside were being brought their food the next time I saw an employee. I flagged down the food runner and told him to cancel my meal as my table was near done with their meal and I wasn't going to take mine to go or make them wait on me. Roughly 5-7 minutes after that the waitress brings my meal. I inform her that I already requested it be cancelled as everyone else was done eating and we just needed the bill at this point. She seemed confused and simply said "oh" and walked off. She didn't offer any kind of apology or to comp the meal. She simply walked to the back and came back with the check. I was half expecting the meal to still be on the check but it wasn't. That was the last we saw of anyone. No manager came out to apologize about the fact that I didn't get any food or anything. Maybe it's cause I'm from the south but we have manners. I did get a beer though and it was good. 10/10 would recommend the rolls and water read more

Pretty good for a hearty dinner after a full day of skiing! It has all that you would expect, nothing more. Quality food, understanding waitstaff, perfect to spend an evening at after skiing. read more

Not a great first meal here this past weekend. Paella lacked any real flavor and my wife's steak was way too well done. Bacon infused Old Fashion was the highlight of the meal. We won't be returning especially with the price tag so high. read more

Pleasant surprise at Stratton Village. Creative cocktails and good service. I ordered a rib-eye and it was way better than my expectations. Great salad and sides. In the past two years, I have dined in Hawaii, Oregon, Las Vegas, NYC and Boston and the best steaks have been in Vermont. Local grass fed is probably the reason. read more

The food and service were very good, we dined on Weiner Schnitzel and Roasted duck. However, we had separate checks and the server charged my bill to the person I was dining with and I got charged her bill. When I returned home, my MasterCard had been compromised on the same day I used the card at Fire Tower. I had not used the card any other day and I have RFID protection. Someone ordered from a computer company in North Carolina. Therefore, beware if you use a credit card at this restaurant. read more

Our favorite dinner in Stratton!! This place came recommended by everyone (including family members) before our trip and we are so glad we took their advice and made a reservation! After a full day on the slopes, the cozy atmosphere and comfort food menu items really hit the spot. I got the chicken over risotto and it was phenomenal. My boyfriend loved the burger. Our server was friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back next time! read more

I can't say much for the Caesar salad -- Spanish olives and middling cherry tomatoes? In tomato season? But the mussels were terrific, in a creamy Pernod sauce with thin slices of fennel, and a big hunk of toasted Italian bread for dipping. There was a decent list of wines by the glass: I had a nice French Sauvignon Blanc that went nicely with the mussels. read more

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? Not one to write reviews but this one could not be avoided. Friday of Martin Luther King Holiday weekend. Wanted to order food to take out. 1st phone call: Me: "Do you offer take out"? Them: "Yes". Me: "Thank you, I will call you right back". 2nd phone call" Me: "I would like to place a take out order". Them: "We have a separate menu for take out. Please visit OpenTable.com". #$%^& 3rd phone call (after reviewing menu on OpenTable.com) Me: "I would like to order a Quesadilla and two specialty pizzas". Them: "Sorry, we have a limited availability of ingredients tonight...". !@#$%^& Are you kidding me??? Martin Luther King weekend and you have limited ingredients? When do you plan to place an order with your distributor? read more

Got a burger an beer, simple enough right? Burger was definitely a once frozen patty with only one slice of tomato and lettuce/onion. One slice of cheese was a dollar upcharge. Really? These guys make like %1200 profit on a package of kraft singles. For a 14$ burger you would expect fresh meat and maybe some nice toppings. Too bad, its a nice looking place and my beer wasnt too badly priced. They just fit into the tourist trap subpar food for big bucks. I mean, really, how hard is it a cook a burger? read more

First time going here. Service was friendly and prompt, food was ok. Beautiful place inside and out but again food was mediocre.

Ate at the bar during the Superbowl. Salads and flatbreads were great as were the cocktails and wine by the glass. Bartender was attentive and knowledgeable of the menu items. Will definitely eat here again when skiing at Stratton! read more

Have eaten here in each of Stratton ski trips. Food is vey good but I experienced what I believe is food poisoning last week. Had the shellfish with saffron rice dish,6-7 hour later I was vomiting with diarrhea. I lost a ski day and cut my trip short. I was ok by 24 hours later so it wasn't a bug and I didn't drink at all so it wasn't alcohol. My wife was fine but had a different meal. I understand there is a risk whenever you eat shellfish. I left a message with the restaurant the next morning, so they could be aware. I am surprised they never even returned my call. I feel they should have. read more

We started to have dinner at the Fire Tower this past winter when it opened. We always had a great experience so we decided to have my daughter's rehearsal dinner there. We were so pleased. The staff was so professional and accommodating . The food was delicious thanks to Max, the chef. Peter the owner was so wonderful to work with and Ralph was there overseeing the whole party of 60 people. He was so helpful. It went so smoothly and everyone only had the best comments. Thank you all again for all you help and dedication! read more

The first time I went in here, we sat at the bar - the bartender was cool and nice and the dumplings and whatever else we got were delicious. The second time I came here, (Management: evening of March 8), the brunette host was downright rude when I entered, and I felt looked down on, for suggesting that we were there to dine (was it the snowboard pants?). The third time, we had a great experience. We had a reservation and the blonde hostess (not the rude one) promptly greeted us and brought us to a nice corner table. The stuffed clams were a bit heavy and rich. The venison was delicious and beautifully plated. The seared tuna with sticky rice was also an excellent dish, though some of the thicker, raw parts were slightly fishy. Overall the food and service was great. It's a little bit expensive for the service but the waitress was friendly and the food here is excellent and you can tell there is care in the ingredients and plating. Thank you for a nice meal, Fire Tower. read more

We loved this place! The bar was great! The bar tender was great! The food was tasty! Winner! We asked them to create something off-menu and in 15 minutes came amazing Chilli-cheese fries...sooo good. My BIL and SIL tried a bunch of the appetizers and they loved all of them. Their favorite was the ahi tuna tartar nachos and lobster mac and cheese. All the beers we had were nice especially a few of the Vermont brews. The waiter was very knowledgeable and offered to let us try things before we ordered. The bar tender created a special shot for us after my sister-in-law professes her love for rumchadda (I probably spelled that wrong). So nice of them! Definitely check it out! read more

Definitely had to write a review after seeing this place's mediocre rating on here. Came here on a Friday night after a day on the mountain to kick-off my birthday weekend and was thoroughly impressed! Sat at the bar by a framed "fireplace" and it was super cozy and we had great service from the bartenders. There were 4 of us and everyone loved their food and drinks! Started with the Potstickers and Elk Sausage Sampler. Have to say that the sausage was good on its own but the combination of everything on the plate was fantastic!!! Dinner: Samoan Tombo Tuna, Pork Porterhouse, Sausage and Kale Cavatappi, and a Venison that I can't find on the menu. BEST ENTREE: The venison!!!! It will change the way you feel about venison! The whole next day I was thinking about it and it wasn't even mine. Bottom line....the next day we went to an upscale restaurant in the village but we all said our meal was better here so don't miss out!!! read more

Went with my 8 yr old nephew who said with great enthusiasm, "The fish and chips are EXCELLENT. They're cod and cooked perfectly. They have the perfect brown crispiness." They looked excellent. Unfortunately I did not have the fish and chips but the Wiener schnitzel which was a bit tough and not remotely crispy or cooked excellently like the aforementioned cod. Drinks are top notch though. Moral of this review - order off the kids menu. read more

Love the food - great servers. The app specials (octopus over hash, pork belly, wrapped figs) were amazing and the salmon entree was perfect. The bartenders make some killer cocktails - loved the Bacon Old fashioned. read more

Food/pizza good, has potential but can tell just opened Waiter tried to make up for it but overall service has room for improvement read more

I went there this past weekend and had a really terrible, overpriced meal. We ordered a couple of small plates as appetizers. The shrimp was fine but served on a pile of noodles that was excessive. The tuna tartar nachos again tasted fine, but there were far too many chips and very little tuna. The entrees were really disappointing. My wife and I ordered the filet mignon medallions. The medallions were supposed to be medium rare, but they came out well done and burnt. They came with overcooked asparagus and some scalloped potatoes that were not half bad. I've been there before and had good meals. Hopefully I just got a bad night, but I'm not sure I'm going to want to risk another bad meal at those prices. read more

This restaurant is often over booked and the staff is not trained in order to give customers a good overall experience. I had made a reservation for 6:30 and when I got to the front desk I was sent to the "waiting area" with two other un-happy families. This place DEFINITELY needs to hire better trained staff who know how to book table accordingly. Overall, I would not go back to the Fire Tower. read more

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and politeness of the staff. This restaurant is the new L'osteau Brasserie for those who remember that expensively delicious restaurant. It really has something for everyone. For me that is the steak but I am forgetting which one and the Cesar salad. I was extremely impressed with the Cesar and it tasted delicious with the amazing kale they add in for a amazing flavor and taste. With a family of four our bill was 180$ but after tip the meal cost us 210$. Overall, we enjoyed it so much we are again to eat there tonight. Hope everyone enjoys their meal if you decided to eat at this fabulous restaurant and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. read more

While I have been here before and thought it was one of the better Stratton restaurants, it was extremely disappointing this time. The wine pours were so small for an expensive glass of wine. The chicken with risotto tasted like a bottle of salt was mistakenly dropped in. Flatbread was good as was dessert but entree was almost inedible read more

Delicious all around! Everything we got was amazing! The ahi tuna nachos are an amazing starter. Fresh ahi tuna, homemade wontons and a delicious wasabi aioli. The Cajun salmon was a perfect meal, the pizzas were delicious and crisp and oh the cocktails.. the cocktails blew me out of the water! I suggest the beet margarita to try something new! read more
