    Entrance
    Steve L.

    My second and last time here. I was hoping for improvements from my first visit as it's under new management. Upon arriving it was a slow meet and greet and seated. It is a strange vibe and two ladies sitting at the bar had just fought and yelled at the bartender and paid and stormed out. Menu is interesting with a little bit if this and that. I opted for Chicken Picatta. It came with a salad that came out with limp greens that needed some ice water before letting it set in the walk-in. After the salad came the entree. OMG it was swimming in the liquid that was supposed to be a lemon cream sauce. Chef school 101 in sauce making is that a sauce should coat the back of a spoon. No coating here as it was way too thin. Even the flavor was lacking. I ate half and boxed the rest up. I unfortunately wanted to support local business but this was another fail for me. I would actually suggest to skip this place if thinking of giving it a try. Sorry.

    The undercooked  hamburger they served us.

    The food was undercooked. I ordered a well done burger and it was very pink. Sent it back. Still came back undercooked. Hubby ordered med well and his was almost bloody. The wait was horribly long so we opted to pack up our food and cook it at home. They only had 1 person answering phones and waiting on all tables and this was at noon. The tiles on the bar front had many broken a nd missing pieces. The flower hangers in front were rusted and missing the container to actually hold flowers. I will never return to this establishment!

    I had seen good reviews so thought I would want to try this place because everything on the menu seemed great as well and I won't lie I was a little worried when I walked in and when the food first arrived. I was not worried at all once I got a taste. My friend had a veggie quesadilla with feta cheese which is kind of a weird combination that worked out really well, and my salmon club was amazing! I added a little bit of chipotle mayo, and that really made the difference in taking it from a good sandwich to a great one. Prices are really cheap, food is delicious, service was okay at best but it was also well worth the trip still. Not in this area often but I'll probably come back when I am. Definitely want to check out the breakfast at least

    Classic Eggs Benedict w/smoked ham & hash browns

    My neighbor & I were looking for a good breakfast/lunch spot & stumbled upon this place. We arrived around 10:30 am & I inquired if I could order off the lunch menu that early. I was met with a resounding YES! Our friendly server took our drink order & gave us a chance to look over the menu. There's quite a variety from Asian to Italian to American burgers, sandwiches & salads and a fabulous breakfast menu too. My neighbor got the classic eggs benedict with hash browns while I ordered the special of the day: fish tacos. I chose a bowl of clam chowder as my side. The clam chowder was homemade & delicious. My fish tacos were scrumptious. My neighbor liked his breakfast & I must admit, it looked good. I'll have to order breakfast next time (and there will be a next time). Breakfast is served until 3:00 daily.

    We cleaned every plate!!!

    This place is a hidden gem. I don't think many people have discovered it as yet.... but we had 7 people and every plate of food was amazing. Best Clam Chowder we've had in years! The Pizza was superb Fettuccine Alfredo as good as any Italian joint. The Apple walnut salad didn't disappoint The gluten pizza with cauliflower crust was excellent. Didn't taste gluten free :) And the knuckle sandwich was delish!! You should try this next!!

    Excellent brunch spot! The place was busy on a Sunday morning, the servers were on the ball so the wait wasn't too long. The cafe is on the smaller side in a strip mall but thankfully it didn't feel too crowded when seated. We got the breakfast pizza for the table to share, it was delicious, highly recommend. Everyone ordered different entrees - pancakes, eggs, bacon, omelet, tacos and we all raved about our meals. If you're looking for something casual and fun different than a chain restaurant, definitely visit Fireside Cafe!

    I have been here twice now and I really enjoy this restaurant. I have been here both times for breakfast and I have to say it is yummy. I will be back. I came here because most other places were packed for breakfast and lucky for me they had a table open. Both times I have tried different things and I will gladly come back. Service here has been excellent both times as well. I can't wait to come back in the afternoon and order something other than breakfast. I may even add a 5th star to my review. :)

    Leftovers from the lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes.  They are HUGE and delicious   No syrup needed, but they have it if you want it!

    We needed a dog friendly restaurant while traveling, and this fit the bill perfectly with a covered patio, outdoor fan, and TVs if you are into football. I ordered the lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes with fresh blueberries. They were so fluffy, fesh, and sweet they didn't need syrup. My aunt ordered the chicken pizza, and it looked amazing and cheesy. The BLT was stacked with fresh crispy bacon, and it was so big my husband only ate half. The food was so good we didn't think to photograph it until it was almost all gone. Sorry, no pizza pictures, but we were sure to take the leftovers home for another meal. Great value!

Although I like the Buddha bowl, thought I'd try the Northstar burger and chicken avocado sandwich. Today was a particularly warm day for March so they had the windows open which created a nice breeze. The line took a bit of time to get to the front but the staff was extremely nice and was able to make substitutions. There a lot of seating so whether you are a party of 1 or 8 there's plenty of areas to eat. The food took about 30 minutes to arrive with the kitchen backed up. There's a self serve water station so we relaxed and took in the ambiance. There's food emphasizes fresh ingredients and the burger and chicken sandwich did not disappoint. The burger is vegetarian friendly and comes with a good portion of kale slaw. The chicken sandwich was stacked tall and super filling. Would recommend to try!

She recognized my friend and I were busy talking and didn't rush us to place our order. My friend ordered the tortilla soup and the caprese flatbread, while I went with the crab, shrimp, and lobster bisque and the Leonard burger with fries. My soup came out quickly, but shortly after, the manager came by to let my friend know they were out of the tortilla soup. Because of her dietary restrictions, she declined the substitute options offered. Our entrées arrived without any issues, and everything was delicious. We were both happy with our meals. My friend is a member of their wine club and applied her discount to the bill, but when the check arrived, the discount wasn't reflected on the receipt she was asked to sign. Victoria promptly spoke with the manager, who confirmed the discount had been applied and provided a corrected receipt with the correct total. Overall, we enjoyed our time at CH and would visit again.

We made our reservation about a month in advance, arrived early at 5:00 p.m. for our 5:15 seating, and were seated fairly quickly. Our waitress, Margaret, was friendly at first--but unfortunately, that's where the positive experience ended. We waited 45 minutes for our starter and an hour and a half for our entrée. What made it more frustrating was watching nearby tables--many seated after us--receive their meals, finish, and even turn over while we were still waiting. We finally left around 7:30 p.m., feeling very disappointed. The food at Cooper's Hawk is consistently excellent, which is why this experience was so discouraging. There were also billing issues: I had a birthday reward and several wine bottles through my membership available, yet the wine was still charged to our bill and the birthday reward wasn't applied until I pointed it out. Although part of it was corrected, we still ended up paying for the bottle that should have been included. We usually enjoy wonderful visits here, and Cooper's Hawk remains one of my favorite restaurants. However, this particular experience--especially the long wait times and billing confusion--was truly disappointing, and I would hesitate to dine in the same section again.

The two waitresses we had were extremely patient and made sure we had what we needed throughout the evening. The food was excellent. I had the Chilean sea bass, which had the perfect amount of crisp on the outside, while maintaining its juicy, flaky texture on the inside. Even when I reheated it the next day, it did not dry out. Many others got the ribeye, and there was nothing but good reviews. The section we were in (enclosed patio area) was very cozy, with a fireplace built into the wall. It was very comforting and a nice addition to the ambiance of the restaurant, compared to the area outside of the enclosed patio section. I will definitely be back for a steak soon.

The cocktails were delicious, I had the Diamond Martini and Lemon Drop with strawberry. We were there early so may have been one other diner. I did not really love the bread but no biggie. We both had steaks and loaded baked potatoes. We agreed, steaks were seasoned well and tender. Our potatoes were cold, not warm, cold. Yes they were replaced and we appreciated it. The thing is, this is the second steak place in under a month where the potato was an issue. In addition, the texture of the potato was off. I like a fluffy, melt in your mouth potato. I'm not sure how they are made in restaurants today. I bake in oven at home and never miss. Would I return absolutely.
