First time at Firebirds and it was an amazing experience! The service was impeccable and the food was absolutely delicious. A special thank you to Frank and Lilly both provided top notch service and made our visit truly memorable. We will definitely be back! Thank you for making our Father's day lunch so incredible ! Martin , GM thank you for your service ! M/M Tommy and Mary Ann Fierros read more

The food was great! I had the 3 course dinner that came with your choice of salad, protein, and dessert for $40. I selected the Caesar salad, the salmon, and the cheesecake! Cocktails were good too. The food portions were large, we ended up taking home leftovers. The dining area is very spacious and multiple dining areas for guests to enjoy their company. Upscale dining that offered great service. Our host was very prompt with our table, she took our drink order, shared specials and menu items, brought bread for us to share, and kept our drinks topped off. Definitely a fantastic place to enjoy dinner with wonderful company! read more

Tried Firebirds Wood Fired Grill and came away pretty disappointed overall. We started with the Seared Ahi Tuna, which sounded great on paper. It may have been seared in something like chimichurri, but whatever was on it completely overpowered the tuna. Instead of highlighting the fish, it dominated every bite. It honestly could have used some kind of palate cleanser alongside it. For mains, we ordered three different steaks, and surprisingly, all of them lacked flavor. That was the biggest letdown, especially after such a heavily seasoned appetizer. You expect a steakhouse to get that part right. The lobster was just okay. Nothing offensive, but nothing memorable either. Overall, the meal felt unbalanced. Either over-seasoned or under-seasoned, with nothing really standing out in a good way. Wouldn't recommend based this experience. read more

I keep my expectations down when eating at a chain restaurant, but so much for my stereotypes when it came to this place. There were four of us there for a NYE dinner, and even at that busy time our server was amiable and professional. The food was spot on and we all left full and happy. read more

My wife and I went here for lunch after church. It was around 12:30 pm and not many people were there. Our service was great. My wife had shrimp and grits. I ordered wings but due to my shellfish allergy, the kitchen informed me that the wings were cooked with the same oil as the shellfish so I ordered the classic burger instead. The manager through in a dessert for good measures. We also had a great wedge salad. Was quiet and peaceful surroundings. read more

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill is an elevated American eatery specializing in, you guessed it, wood fired foods from steaks to burgers, chicken to fish, and is situated in the heart of La Encantada in Tucson. We popped by La Encantada for a bit of shopping and decided to grab lunch while there, so we wandered into Firebirds and felt pretty good with that decision. The place was pretty busy for lunch, so we had a few minute wait upon entry, but they got to use fairly quickly. We got sat on the partially covered and shaded patio, which in February is a great spot to sit. They do not have a dedicated lunch menu, which was a bit odd, so a lot of the offerings leaned very dinner heavy, but they had a small selection of sandwiches and sides, which is what we both went with. They do offer complimentary bread for the table as well. We had a gluten aversion at our table, so we opted to skip it, but the loaf did look tasty. I went with the steak sandwich with tots as my side. The steak was a full piece instead of strips, which I actually enjoyed a bit more. Having the steak in one piece helped the structure and integrity of the sandwich, which made it a bit easier to eat. The steak, while supposed to be cooked to order, was a bit thin for that. I ordered medium, but the steak was well done. It was seasoned well and still ate decent, but was not medium. The same happened with a burger at the table as well. Ordered medium, came out well. Not sure if the actual cook or the heat lamp, but either way...temp was off. Our server was delightful. She was friendly and helpful. The hostess and host who sat us were less than friendly, but not rude. Just "bleh", which is a bit odd seeing they are the welcome to the restaurant. Wasn't bad enough to detour us, but it was noticeably different than all the other staff we encountered. Price point was fair, even for a steak sandwich at lunch. $25 in total, with water as the drink. The space, indoor and outdoor, was well kept and clean. Overall, solid experience at Firebirds! read more

Stopped in on a random Friday evening with my daughter. The place was full no reservations but the bar hi-top is come as you are. The service was ok and the food was too. Seems kind of overrated to me. The server was friendly and attentive we got everything timely and with a great attitude. Just not a great vibe from the place. read more

Server was new and sweet! That is what gave the 2 stars. Salmon super small, dry and mediocre. Scalloped potatoes are my favorite but have been awful lately. Like why are they always brown and super mushy? See picture below read more

After three years and not writing a review, I thought it would be appropriate to write an update. Last Sunday afternoon, my wife and I came here for lunch. Upon entering, there were two hostesses. The dark-haired one just looked at us and didn't say any greetings (like hi, welcome to Firebirds, anything) until I asked if we could have a table. If you are looking for someone to make you feel unwelcome, she nailed it. If this was my first time here, I would not return, and honestly, should have just left. Our waiter was personable. We ordered the grilled chicken and the chopped cobb salad. Both items were flavorful. The salad is huge. read more

Took my wife here a few days ago, I thought this place was going to let me down but oh boy, it was amazing. I ordered the ribeye med well and it was thick and juicy, very flavorful. The service was something you don't expect in Tucson....i kept getting refills without asking. I was in shock so I tipped as generous as possible. Definitely will be back because that was the best steak I've had here. read more

Service with Camille was wonderful. She was so knowledgeable and attentive to our questions. We decided to split the Lobster Fondue Salmon which was outstanding! I need to find out how to make that sauce. I could have eaten a whole order myself. What a surprise to receive a special desert for our 17th wedding anniversary. Camille made our evening very special. Thank you. read more

Sooooooo nice. Service was friendly and pleasant. A little slow sometimes and forgetful but luckily other staff members are there and willing to help out! That's good service. The restaurant reminds me a little bit of Sullivans. I think seeing the kitchen is neat. Food was amazing. Came out at good times. Before we had our meal we shared a salad and bread and the timing of it being served was on point. read more

I Made reservations through the app OpenTable (gotta get those points)! I came for a self-care date. I knew what I wanted before I even sat down: a martini with blue cheese olives (only because they don't have cocktail onions) and their incredible lobster cheese queso. They did have another small menu that looked new and sounded amazing with offerings such as tortilla soup, arugula carrot salad, and you can pair it with a sandwich, such as a sirloin grilled cheese, BLT, etc. I've included a picture of the menu. IIt's a very nice environment, open space with plenty of booths and tables. They play pleasing music in the background. The staff was all very accommodating and kind. There is a patio and Bar Along with a happy hour special. Lots of parking too. It's a great place for a celebration dinner or date night. read more

This was the final restaurant that we visited while we had family in town. 3 nights of eating out as a party of 9-11. (Number varied due to a few of us locals work schedules) Our table was ready upon arrival complete with water glasses. Our server was quick to get our drink orders. Then we waited. We did ask for a bit more time to look at the menu but it took 40 minutes to get our bread and we were there an hour before we ordered our meals. Part of our party ordered appetizers and we mentioned we were ready to order entrees as well. We were told she'd be back. She disappeared for quite awhile. When we finally got our food it came out very quickly so we did need to wait more than a few minutes til everyone had their order, that was a plus. I don't remember our server returning to check on how our meal was. A few of us ran out of water and had to flag someone down for refills. The food was good. I had the 3 course meal with the BLT salad which was delicious, but a bit too heavy on the dressing so I'd get it on the side next time. I also had the salmon and shrimp, was told the sauce would be on the side but it was not. Dessert was the crème brûlée cheesecake which is delicious. Other than waiting so long for bread and to order it was a nice evening with family. read more

Three of us went on a Monday afternoon. We ordered a burger, a grilled chicken burger and a salad. The chicken burger was sloppy with some sort of flavorless sauce. The burger was good. The salad had great big chunks of Bleu cheese. The lettuce was nicely chopped. It was all okay... Just nothing to write home about. Waitress was good. $60.00... read more

I had dined here before but could not remember the experience. This time was about the same. These kind of restaurants never stick out in my mind. It's just another over priced American cuisine stop. In fact as I'm writing this I can't remember what I ate but I think it was good. Service mediocre. Ambiance mediocre. Cleanliness questionable because of dirty windows at entrance and lipstick on my water glass. I'm thinking the stand out it has going for it is its location. read more

This place is great for special occasions or just a casual dining experience. We came for my birthday and enjoyed our meals cooked exactly how we ordered them - prime rib medium and wood grilled salmon. Both very tasty and the bread and butter was fresh out of the oven. We shared an appetizer - chicken tortilla soup which was delicious. Our waitress was Faith and she was wonderful. The only thing I might request in the future if it's possible is an unsalted baked potato. The hostess was nice, and the place was very clean. Overall experience is definitely five stars. read more

I met friends for lunch here. Ordered a Roasted Garlic Sirloin, medium rare (red/pink and juicy). it arrived well done and extremely tough. It took a great deal of hard chewing to eat it. Then I did not realize until I got home that they charged me for the more expensive Wood Grilled NY Strip which was definitely NOT what I receive. I do NOT recommend this place at all. Very Expensive and not worth it. read more

After a long absence, we decided to try Firebirds again since they had some new menu items for brunch. Most of the favorites I had loved had been removed, like the Coconut Shrimp with Mango Salsa, Pecan Crusted Trout, Spiced Pecan Green Beans, and Crab Cakes. My husband and I went on May 18; he ordered the Steak and Eggs bowl and I ordered the Crab & Corn Fritters. His bowl was delicious, and the Filet Mignon was tender and tasty. We like it so much, we asked friends to join us the following weekend. Second visit: We were seated in a well-worn booth with peeling wall paint that looked like it had been forgotten. My friend and I both ordered the Steak and Eggs bowl, and hers was almost twice the size of mine. Mine looked like they forgot onions, mushrooms, and other stuff. My steak was half fat and most of the meat was full of gristle. Hers also was tough. I didn't realize how much fat was in my bowl until I got home, since I boxed up half of it. The server had noticed how small my portion was and brought me more mushrooms, which was appreciated. I should have investigated my bowl more, but I was enjoying visiting with our friends we hadn't seen in awhile, so I mostly ate the potatoes. Both my husbands Steak Tacos and his friends had very stringy steak. None of us would order any of those dishes again. We were also celebrating my birthday (confirmed by the host who checked us in with our reservations), which was never acknowledged. If it had just been my husband and me, we would have sent back the dishes for a re-do, or ordered something else. We were pretty involved in conversation, and when the server came by to check, we really had not had much time to get into our food, so non of us were aware how bad it was that early on. We hardly saw the server again until it was time for the check. No complaints about the server - she was fine and did fill our drinks, but maybe she didn't get the message that we were there to celebrate my special occasion. Not sure if we'll be back, because that's a hefty price to pay for fatty and gristly filet mignon. read more

The service was slow. My wife and I went on Sunday 31 May 26 for an early dinner. I ordered the Tomahawk Pork Chop and it was dry and tough to chew. My wife ordered the Au Gratin Potatoes and she said the taste was good but it was very dry. Not a great experience! read more

Firebirds is a chain...I get it...but chains do have their charms. Consistency and closeness to home get me there when I want a nice piece of salmon. I like to go there for the Salmon Salad--it gets even better if my hankering for salmon salad comes on half-price wine day! Their discounts apply to glasses as well as bottles, so even my single glass gets discounted . The salad is consistently tasty, and the salmon is always very nicely grilled (not overcooked and crispy on the outside). Their bread is delicious too. Not healthy by any stretch, but hot from the oven and delicious with butter! I've never had dessert there because...the bread! read more

Our food was excellent, it was our first time here. Our waiter was pleasant, happy, and did his job perfectly. We ordered ranch rings, and smothered tenderloin breakfast burrito, so much flavor it was amazing! Inside was very inviting and calm. We definitely enjoyed the whole experience and will definitely be coming back to try the desserts since they looked heavenly. To ALL the parents with little ones: Only thing I did NOT like was the fact that there are NO changing tables for babies in the bathrooms, quite surprising for an establishment like this. Hopefully the owner of this place can put one in soon! read more

Firebirds were running a "special" of BBQ Baby Back Ribs with fruit and a side for $19.95. We've had this meal before and really enjoyed it. We ordered it for pickup and all went well there. Got home to eat them and found the ribs to be tough....very, very, very tough and lean on meat. We wondered even if they had been cooked completely. The SW Au Gratin potatoes were way over salted. The fresh vegetables were ok, but skimpy, not up to their usual standards. The fresh fruit was good. This meal was a major disappointment and if this were our first meal with Firebirds, we would not go back. IF we return, we will not ever order their BBQ ribs. And we will not recommend eating here to anyone again as this meal was that bad, sorry to say. Very disappointed. read more

STOP. THE. PRESSES. Last weekend's Baby Back Ribs Special at Firebird's was so epic it should come with its own soundtrack and slow-motion replays . These ribs weren't just fall-off-the-bone tender--they gracefully pirouetted off the bone and dove into my mouth like Olympic gold medalists . But ohhhh baby... the sides. I went for the BLT Salad --crisp lettuce, juicy tomato, and bacon so good it deserves its own fan club --and the Tater Tots , golden little clouds of happiness that crunched like a standing ovation in my mouth . The ribs? Sweet, smoky, sticky perfection . The glaze was caramelized just enough to make you question your life choices up until this moment . If you missed it, my condolences . But when this special comes back, I suggest you bring a bib , a fork, and an emotional support friend--because you WILL need someone to witness the magic . -- Would eat again until I achieve official "Rib Legend" status. read more

I was at the Apple Store handling some repairs on my AirPod Max. Wanted a good steak and I came here for the ribeye Cajun style. It was awesome, perfectly rare, totally tender and deliciously seasoned. I got the deviled eggs and they had pieces of bacon and pepper in them and they were amazing as well a nice whiskey to wash it down and I had an amazing meal. It was totally worth what I paid for it. read more

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill - Creme Brulée Cheesecake - Steakhouses Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I would rate somewhere between 3 - 3.25 if I could. I was looking forward to the dining experience but was left a little disappointed. The service was great (kudos to Gavyn), and I was thankful for the flexibility. Additionally, the manager (Mario) apologized for the shortcomings and provided a complimentary dessert; a nice touch. Appletinis are not on the cocktail menu, but the bartender came through with a better than average drink. Unfortunately, the good was slightly outweighed by the average/bad. The Chicken Tortilla Soup was served lukewarm, lacked a discernible amount of chicken, and was rather bland. The Southwest Au Gratin were nice and cheesy but entirely too salty. The Filet Mignon was very average. Not terrible, but not nearly on par with a good a la carte steakhouse. Considering the price point, it's probably about what I expected. Overall, it's better than a casual dining restaurant like Applebee's but well below a good a la carte steakhouse like Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar. Based on the quality of service and food - while suffering some shortcomings was not bad - I would be willing to give the restaurant another chance. read more
