See all

The vibe was good, but the service was terrible, the beer list was poor, and the prices were too high for what the food was. I wouldn't rush back. read more

I went to this establishment on a snowy day last week. The dining room was slow (which I prefer) so by default we were greeted immediately, sat and drink orders taken. The dining room is fully separated from the bar area, which is nice. Feels private. We ordered a custom made pizza, with no hesitation about our order from the waitress. We put a good amount of veggies on the whole pizza and then my half had pepperoni. The food and drinks came in a timely manner, (side note: I really liked that they had a bunch of different flavors of Stewart's sodas since I don't drink alcohol much) The pizza was solid. Did not knock my socks off in any form or fashion, but it was tasty, cooked properly and the crust was great. The pepperoni was delicious and very flavorful. Overall, this was a very good experience at The Fire Place and will not hesitate to go back. read more

The pizza is pretty good, but I had a very poor experience. While gathering on a Friday night, some friends and I had a few rounds of drinks at the bar. When we were settling up the bill, we realized we were overcharged by several drinks. The bartender argued with us as we disputed the bill, and had to have it changed a few times before it was actually right. One of her solutions was offering us free shots instead of adjusting it, which we declined because we were leaving. I honestly felt taken advantage of and like they were trying to pull one over on us. I haven't been back since, which is a shame because it was a frequent spot for us. In addition, one of my friends mentioned this had happened to them on a previous occasion as well. read more

Excellent food and service. All their pizzas are yummy. I would recommend getting the Lava cake if you still have room

Finally got to eat inside! Service was friendly, interior standard, but they sell these moose wine bottle holders that are super cute!! My hubby and I just had standard bottled beers and split a margarita pizza and some wings. Both were sooo good and it hit the spot. It was the perfect way to end the evening after seeing a movie. I will totally be back to try some more items! read more

I have found my place in life and it is right here. I normally am not a huge fan of the black charred edge style of pizza, but this is FANTASTIC. It's the perfect balance of chewy and crispy. Not too thin or too thick. It's an all around perfect pizza. The honey bbq chicken is DELICIOUS. The sauce is really unique and has a wonderful pronounced honey flavor. Mashed potato pizza is also AMAZING. Definitely one of the best I've ever had and not too rich. Spinaci salad was fantastic as well. Really delicious ingredients and the raspberry vinaigrette was possibly the best salad dressing ever. I'm curious if it's house made. Atmosphere is great with a trendy vibe. Staff is really nice and friendly. A huge winner in my book!!!! read more

Pizza wasn't that good. Felt like frozen dough for sure. Toppings didn't seems fresh. Would not recommend. Too bad the atmosphere and area is nice. read more

Pizza, bread, Italian wedding soup, wings, and Italian taco are all delicious. Been back a few times for take-out. Only ate in house 1 time but food and service was excellent. read more

Pizza here is above average. They have a fairly large draft selection, but the only problem is that not much thought goes into which beers are available. I think they pretty much leave it up to the distributors. If they had a better selection of beers, I would have given them 4 stars. It's a nice place to hang out except for all the TV's. read more

The Fire Place is a fun place to watch a game and have a few beers. The crowd is somewhat varied but definitely on the younger side, I'd say between 23-28. I can't say a lot about the food, (which consists of salads and smoke fired wings & pizza), as I've only had a few bites of things, but they have a decent beer selection which includes Sierra Nevada on draft. Their prices are a bit on the high side but it's usually a fun place. The fake logs on the potbelly stoves behind the bar are a bit cheesy but it is nice to have a decent bar option on Center Street. read more

We ended up going here because the restaurant we intended to go to had too long of a wait. What a great find! We ordered 3 small pizzas - 1 potatoe, 1 pesto and 1 BBQ chicken. They were all delish! There is a busy bar area, and cozy atmosphere. We will definitely return! read more

Decent beer selection. Awesome atmosphere. Honestly, the best pizza in CT. I recommend the mashed potato or pesto primo pizza.

I'm definitely a fan. All the ingredients are fresh, the service was good, and the atmosphere was fun. The menu is somewhat limited (a ton of pizza, some subs, and some salads), but the pizza options are pretty unique and delicious. It was a little light on the sauce for my taste, but overall it was great. We had the zucchini pizza, one pizza with bacon and prosciutto, and one chicken BBQ pizza. The zucchini pizza got soggy after sitting there at the end of our meal, but other than that, I liked all of them. We also had the spicy chicken salad, and it was chock full of "stuff" besides just lettuce, and the large is enough to bring home left overs. My fiance and our friend tried the house lager, and liked it enough to order more rounds. We will definitely be back! read more

Cozy fun busy atmosphere on a recent Friday evening. Sat at the bar and enjoyed a couple of good martinis and my husband enjoyed a few good beers. We didn't eat as we just had dinner but the pizza looked delicious. We will definitely be back to check out the food too. Fun energetic environment! read more

Really nice atmosphere and great feel to the place. Lots of friendly people and best of all some really good pizza. They have a great selection of toppings and served really nice. We like this place so will be coming here a few more times we expect read more

Great food! The Brooklyn Bridge is a must have! Be sure to order the smokehouse wings too!! Great bar crowd, no live music = no problem! The employees put on their iPod on and let the hits play!!! read more

Great Pizza, very nice inside, outdoor seating available. Honey BBQ pizza was OUTSTANDING. Best way to describe - if anyone has ever had J Tims Honey Gold wings, the sauce tastes JUST like it, nice strips of COOKED bacon, chunks of chix with mozz cheese, could have more slices for the price but still worth it. Pizza came out within 10 min, we were shocked. Cons- THE SERVICE. Our waitress walked by us a few times bc her friends were at the table next to us, she never asked how we were doing or if we needed anything, we kept having to go to her. This was the first time I actually considered leaving 2$ for tip bc we basically did the work ourselves. Another waiter who was very nice did more for us than the actual assigned waitress. I am actually going to call the owner to discuss bc for a first impression, the service was not impressive. Besides that, I wouldnt not go here again bc of the service, were actually bringing family just for they Honey BBQ pizza, however we will pay more attention to the service this time. read more

This place has really great thin pizza and great selection of different gourmet Pizza varieties. We started out with salads and then ordered 3 different pizzas, one being the chicken pesto. It was delicious but the only thing we as a group didn't care for was the chicken on the pizza and the salads we ordered. It was the prepackaged chicken that you get in the grocery store that's already cooked in strips with the rib meat. I feel like if you are serving a gourmet Pizza in a nice restaurant you should be grilling your own chicken up for your salads and pizzas! Other than that we got great service and the tomato sauce was excellent! The orginal cheese pizza was awesome! read more

We've been branching out and looking for new beer bars (outside Wallingford/Middletown) and the Fire Place was on the list. First off I love this area of Southington. What an up and coming place. First walking in I loved this place. Comfortable with both a dining room and a bar. The bar had high tables too, which I love. The menu is simple - mostly specialty pizzas plus a few sandwiches and salads. The wings were the only criticism I have. They were on the small side and not crispy. They bake them in a pizza oven instead of deep fry which may be healthier but I like them crispy. They did taste good. Had two small pizzas, one a bbq chicken. I love bbq pizza and this one was very good. The crust was very thin and crispy, I loved it! They had good craft beer tap list and they were under $5! Haven't seen that in a while. I'll be back. Nice place. read more

We went here tonight and got two pizzas. We ordered the mashed potato and added meatball on top (I highly recommend it). It was an amazing pie, The best I've had in a long time! The sour cream on top was great. We also ordered a side of sauce to dip in. That was a bit of a downfall they served the sauce cold and charged us for it. We also had the clam casino pizza and I felt they skimped on the clam and bacon. It was a good pie but it needed a little more quantity in terms of topping. I can't wait to come here again! read more

I ordered a speciality pizza one night and when I opened it, it looked like it came out of a frozen pizza box from the grocery. The smallest sausage meat I've ever seen. It sucked! read more

Fabulous martinis!!!! Blonde bartender is the best and sweetest. Great pizza! Definitely check this place out

I ate here recently and was very disappointed. The pizza is awful. It tastes like mush and low quality ingredients. I got cheese with a couple toppings and even the toppings were bad. It tasted very salty with almost no sauce. To make matters worse - I found a long dark hair woven in the pizza. Disgusting! This place is not inexpensive and should be capable of making a decent pizza since that is one thing they feature. I left hungry and dissatisfied. I will definitely not be going back. read more

Awsome pizza the wings where really good and the salad was awsome I'll be returning aging I would recommend this place to my friends and family read more

Stopped by for the NCAA Men's Championship. Nicely attired.... Had wings baked not fried with Cajun honey BBQ dip.....very tasteful......also had large pizza with moo- z, bacon, onions......ordered well done...... Also the pizza was very good......it's not Pepe's of New Haven, but will do very well......service was very good read more

After ages of hearing people rave about the Fire Place and their pizza I was finally able to give them a try. I tried their mashed potato pizza and a cheese pizza. The mashed potato was fine, It tasted like loaded mashed potatoes which is great but I think I'd rather just have loaded mashed potatoes and stick to more traditional pizzas. The cheese pizza was fine but nothing game changing here for me. read more

I really enjoyed the pizza here. It is wood fired, but it isn't super thin crusted like some of the NYC/New Haven style pizzas. They are very generous with the toppings as well, and I was pretty full after one slice! The small salad I got was disappointing. It should have been labeled "kid size" because it was so tiny. Good thing the pizza was so filling. Unfortunately, they don't deliver, and that is one of the main reasons (convenience) that I would order a pizza in the first place. read more

I was only here for drinks before dinner and have not yet tried the food. The bar/atmosphere was very nice. The bartender was friendly and made a surprisingly mean margarita. My only knock was that there was one or two too many barstools packed at the bar. Unless you were the bad guy from Terminator 2 or an olympic hurdler, complete removal of a stool was necessary to achieve seating. Pizzas coming out looked great and people seemed to be enjoying them. I'd definitely go back to try the food. read more

I've been coming here for years. Definitely the best pizza in the area. The crust is always perfect and the toppings range from unique to traditional. read more

Love their thin crust! The quality of the sauce and toppings is great. The Brooklyn Bridge and Grand Salami are our two faves, but all the pies we've tried have been good. Their spicy chicken salad is also delish. Nice bar area. read more

Try their mashed potato pizza. With bacon, of course! It's my favorite and comes in at 2nd behind Bar in New Haven. The small size is enough to feed two people and they place it on a carefully crafted tray- a huge can of tomato sauce. read more

Been going for years always comfortable always prompt service as long as i live in southington ill be a frequent customer

To me pizza is all about the crust, soft yet firm, chewy but not tough, then on to the toppings - yummy! Chicken & spinach was awesome! Add a cold brew (lots to choose from) and you have an almost perfect night out.....just add an order for the wings garlic & honey barbecue are my favorites. read more

The Fire Place is one of the best pizza places in the area. They crust is thin and crispy and the the toppings are fresh and delicious. I suggest eating in because they have a great tap selection if you are a beer drinker. It is a little on the small side though so be prepared to wait a bit on busy nights. There is also limited outdoor seating in the summer. read more

Amazing place owned by an awesome person. If you want to know what pizza should taste like COME HERE!

Food is good, no question about it. Unfortunately I got to experience the owner's character, integrity and personality tonight, and there is no way I'll be coming back. I have absolutely no desire to support a business owned by someone of questionable integrity, humility and service. Period. read more

Needed a place to meet with a girlfriend after work. Great place to chill , drink and chat. Cozy inside!

I would give this a 5 star review after the countless times I've been here, but tonight was a disappointment. My boyfriend ordered takeout, arrived on time, and we were handed a cold pizza 15 minutes later than we were told. That kind of thing does not bother me, but the fact that no one offered to warm it up or assist in any way, makes me not want to go back. Other customers that arrived later were given their food first. We're very easy going people, but the service tonight really sucked. No longer one of my favorite places to go. read more

I always come here with friends when we are back in our home town for holidays. It has a nice clean feel on the inside, but isn't too fancy. Decent beer selection, decent prices. The pizza and wings are very good as well. read more
