When I go to a place that says wood fire I think Pizza.. Nope, Nadda not today at this establishment. They have a margherita pizza and another type of pizza as an appetizer but that's it. They have burgers, ribs, some pasta dishes, fish and what I ordered. It was a tenderloin hoagie with too many onions. The munch wannabe ordered a pulled pork sammy and the growing *angel* ordered ribs. The food was 7 out of 10 probably and the service was 6-7 out of 10. There were many TVs at the bar area to watch the Pens game and it looked like a nice array of beers on tap. We didn't order dessert tonight. read more

Hesitant to try this place based off the ratings/reviews but was in the area and super swayed otherwise! - Fresh & flavorful food, not frozen (which is impressive for bar food). - Favorable atmosphere from cleanliness, decor, music and ambiance. - Attentively laidback service and great window seating. Our type of restaurant and look forward to returning. read more

This is one of our 'go-to' places close to home. The owners and staff are extremely friendly - always greeting you with a smile (even when they are completely booked for the evening). The food is consistently good - and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My go-to choices are: The Pit Burger, Caesar Salad with Salmon (or literally anything with their Salmon because it's *so* good), the Tenderloin Sandwich, Buffalo Chicken Wrap.. I could just go on. They have a nice selection of cocktails and beers - including a nice local rotation. To be honest I've only ever ordered one drink from the menu - the Charred Fruit Sangria. It's hands down one of my favorite drinks. I no longer have to order it - because as soon as I walk in the bartenders start making it for me :). I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. They do have a great outdoor patio, a private party room, and monthly wine club dinners. We recently held our Rehearsal Dinner in the private room and it was perfect. On weekends they have live music - which can get loud if you are sitting in the bar area. If you're sensitive to loud music I would suggest requesting the dining room, or avoiding nights when the bands are playing. read more

First time here. We were in the area and this place looked like a place we'd enjoy. Staff was friendly. We showed up when it was opening. Had a couple locals beers from Quinn Brewing. The food was delicious. Recommend this place. read more

This is our go to place! Owners are super friendly, lots of live music days on calendar, and the menu has a variety of selections and everything is delicious. Mushroom soup on Thursday is my favorite. And best cocktail is cucumber moscow mule in my opinion. Never have trouble getting a seat with indoor and outdoor seating. They do take reservations and we have celebrated special occasion there (birthday) and were allowed to bring in our own cake. I can't say enough good things about The Firepit. read more

The Firepit Wood Fired Grill - Dining area - New American Near Me - Irwin, Pennsylvania

I truly like this restaurant. 4 vs. 5 stars because it's way too loud and loud because of poor acoustics, not because of rowdy, obnoxious patrons. So, having to talk really loud across the table is a less-than-desirable experience. Otherwise, a quite nice outing here. Our server was very friendly and helpful. The menu -- that's really the standout. Many options I would have ordered that sounded delicious with a variety of vegetables, colors, and flavors. I like that you can see all the flurry of activity in the kitchen. There's also a bar area with many tvs and there was live music this night, though the sound of it wasn't particularly to my liking this go-round. I decided on the pulled pork tacos with corn, avocado, and beans inside served as a threesome in soft flour shells and a red sauce on the side. Instead of fries, I selected the parmesan cheese cauliflower. All of these decisions were spot-on. Flavorful and satisfying. My husband ordered ribs. I took a bite and they were quite nice. I definitely would return to try other menu options and, perhaps, listen to some live music here. read more

Went to the Firepit on a busy Friday night. We were early (before 6) and were seated right away. We were greeted and received our drinks quickly. A short wait to put in our order, and then a longer wait for our food. Pulled pork sandwich was generous and delicious. Chicken, bacon, spinach flat bread was tasty. Another member of our party ordered the sweet chili shrimp, sauce on the side as she doesn't do spicy, but claimed that it was tasty! And not too spicy. Overall a little loud for my senior company but food and service were excellent. read more

One of our regular go-tos! Food is always good and drinks are fantastic. Often have music on weekends. It can get very loud but fun!

First time visit. A coupon in the local paper brought us in. We were the first to arrive on a Sunday afternoon. The design of the restaurant was very eye appealing and I liked the atmosphere as well as being able to see the kitchen threw a huge glass window. I like the choice of sitting inside or dining outside on the patio. The service was excellent. The flat bread Pizza was amazing, I really enjoyed it. The food was ordered promptly and delivered as well. Okay... the only nice things I can say. The price with the coupon was reasonable BUT... I thought the burger was mediocre at best. It was handmade and you can tell is was a frozen patty, how disappointing. I didn't care for it at all. It may have been delivered quickly, but it wasn't a hot burger at all. I didn't care of the fries either. The Firepit won't be on any restaurant rotation list for this family. We saw no Manager during our visit. I can say the bathrooms are a clean and well managed restroom, however we were the first ones there that day. read more

Every time my wife and I come to this place we leave happy. Good service, good food, and a good location.

Menu not as large as expected. Staff was busy but as attentive as possible. The food was average. Ordered a burger medium well based on server's recommendation for some pink. There was no pink and none in my husband's medium burger. read more

Stopped by for lunch. The exterior was more interesting than the inside decor. I didn't find the hostess to be overly welcoming. My visit picked up from there. The server was very pleasant and efficient. My meal was good. I had the western burger. Meat was cooked perfectly and the smoked gouda, BBQ and onion straws made for a nice combo. Just the right amount of fries. Portion was sizable and almost justified the price charged for lunch. read more

Very very loud. Could barely hear waitress over radio and other patrons. Do not recommend if you have a noise sensitivity.

Expensive restaurant with horrible customer service! My friends and I were for dinner, we hadn't even placed a drink order and the manager came to tell us there is a 2 hour limit on this table. There was no one waiting and plenty of empty tables. Service was horrible, the meals were expensive, and the food was adequate. They do not need to tell me I have to leave in 2 hours again, as I will not return! read more

Food is pretty good. Waitress was inattentive and didn't come back often. Attempted to order dessert and was told it had to go through the waitress. She wouldn't allow me the opportunity to order. Never mind I guess. read more

I went back and it was just as good as the last time! This time around, I am on a 'diet' so I was so happy to see that there were a variety of menu options for me I choose from. We started off with the caramelized onion dip, which comes with cucumbers and pita for dipping. It was quite good, though I didn't expect it to be so sweet! It was a sweet and creamy dip that tasted very fresh! My boyfriend got the buffalo chicken salad, and it already came with grilled chicken, not the usual fried chicken. He enjoyed it VERY much; it was fresh and he liked the ranch dressing a lot. I got a grilled chicken sandwich and asked for it without the fries. I also got a side house salad with ranch dressing. they ended up putting fries on my plate anyway which was a little unfortunate because I didn't want the temptation; but I ended up giving them to my nephew to eat and he nibbled on some. I also stopped by the bathroom to freshen up- they are spotless, smell and look clean, and are stocked with the essentials. They also have such cute decor that matches the season or the holiday which is a really nice touch. I always enjoy coming here for lunch or dinner and I continue to be a very satisfied patron when all is said and done! read more

I don't like to give bad reviews and I like to give the benefit of the doubt as I've been in he industry. The first time I try to order 30min before the kitchen was to close at 2:00 for their mid-day cleaning, and they refused to take my order, which I could understand if the bartender hadn't been ignoring me for the previous 15min and wasn't completely rude during my encounter with her. 2nd time my drink was about to go tumbling off the tray and the waitress saved it, but also stuck her finger in it and acted like she was doing me a favor by serving it to me. Today I got the same daytime bartender and the same bad attitude, they make you feel like a burden and treat you awful. I can't go back even if the food is good! read more

Third time here at 6PM. Empty tables every where. We were told no tables available unless we can leave by 7PM so the regulars can have the tables. Third time her and told that. You have a time limit. No thanks. Insulted 3 times that my business wasn't good enough. I thought what a business, open bar seats, open tables, just please leave. Never again. read more

Did a takeout yesterday. First time trying and wanted to see for myself friends have been giving mixed reviews and well it was time to try it out well when I got in the car I thought the ribs smelt burnt but ..... well they were black and uneatable the ton of barbecue sauce cannot hide the charr. The Mac and cheese was bland and the Cole slaw was awful this was a one and done. read more

Stopped in for a late lunch. Not many people there, yet we sat back to back with the few other guests that were there...we could have been a little separated to hear less appealing conversation behind us. All guests were literally in a small cluster of tables. While the food appeared to be well executed it was all under seasoned with the exception of the Mac and cheese. Truffle fries....got zero truffle flavor. Crispy chicken and hot honey chicken sandwiches had no flavor. read more

At 6:00 on a Wednesday, the eatery was pretty empty and we were seated promptly, choosing a high top on a very comfortable patio. The ambiance was great, with a plethora of tables, an outdoor sofa and even a fire pit to sit around. As our dinner wound down, a duo arrived to set up for live music, which must be a big deal as a crowd began to form. But, back to the food... We decided to dine light with my wife ordering a buffalo chicken wrap and myself getting pulled pork tacos, both with fries. The tacos arrived so full of meat they could barely be folded. I was very impressed! The pork was tender and sweet. By the time I finished my third taco, I was stuffed. Our waitress was prompt and courteous the entire time. This is a solid choice for dinner or lunch. read more

Visited here last night the. Server told us the prices of wings were different than what was on the menu. Ok so I questioned it and she had an attitude then this guy comes over who turned out to be the owner who really had an attitude. I guess a customer can't question prices in the menu which aren't written anywhere. Long story short we left and the owners nasty attitude was unbelievable in fact he said fuc* you and that I was a son of a bitc*. Wow what ever happened to the customer was right ? read more

We normally have lunch rather than dinner at the Firepit. They have weekly early menu items which we enjoy. The sirloin steak meal is our favorite with the celery seed dressing on their house salad. We have enjoyed family celebrations there on weekends also. read more

Service was good but food was not excellent. Burger was dry. We were told Brussel sprouts were a vegetarian option and they had bacon mixed in. Probably will try patio dining for drinks and appetizers in the summer and give them another chance. read more

Friends and I (all 24 and up) drove from all the way from NJ/NY to attend funeral services for a friend. Stopped in the restaurant around midday to have a drink. Bartender very unfriendly and proceeded to insinuate to other patrons sitting at the bar that our group must've been underage (nope). Even after receiving a ~40% tip on the bill from our group..... Hate to see it read more

Ate there for the first time this weekend after many attempts to eat there previously, but it was too crowded that we walked away. I now understand why it's always busy. The food and appetizers are very tasty and reasonably priced. Servers are friendly and attentive to your needs, checking to see if there is anything that you need. We will be back even if it is crowded next time. read more

Great neighborhood spot. Owners are always around to help with anything you may need. Food is always very good. Lots of beers to choose from. Try Wednesday,s half off wines! Great outdoor dining experience. Also in a good location. read more

My friends and I popped in here one evening to grab a bite to eat. It was close to where we were, so it was convenient for us! We ordered the truffle fries as a starter. The fries were good, but it had less truffle and toppings than we would have liked. We asked for more of the sauce to dip our fries in, but then it took a while because they had to make more. For my entree, I had the chicken quesadilla from then appetizers side of the menu. It was loaded with peppers and chicken. It was pretty good. I gave my review 3 stars because everything was just average. read more

This spot was so nasty, and disgusting when I mean disgusting it was DISGUSTING!!!! Me, and my husband Earl ordered the "Pulled pork nachos" from this establishment, and we were very upset not only at the quality of the food, but the taste, and the smell of it as well. The ribs you can tell were microwaved, and just thrown on top of the nachos. BTW! I had seen them microwave it, then serve IT to me. The meat on the nachos were gray, and not brown like how is pork GRAY for god sakes. And the salad I ordered? You can forget about that. I was better off picking grass from outside to put on my plate than what they have there called lettuce. The whole atmosphere of the eatery? Understaffed, long waiting times for meals, also let's not forget about the mood swingy teenagers they hired running around the place. 0/10 stars for me! read more

I've been wanting to stop in here for a while, but just like most every restaurant in Irwin, it was always packed. I read the yelp reviews, which are quite mixed. Anyway, I wasn't sure what to expect. My husband and I stopped in for dinner last night, and were seated immediately by a waitress...I didn't see a hostess on duty. Another waitress came over quickly to take care of us. I had the St. Louis Ribs (half rack), which came with fries and cole slaw ($14). My husband got the Hand-Cut Tenderloin Sandwich with fries ($12). Pros: The place is decorated nicely and is very clean. Although, it is a newer place so it should be. You can see the kitchen through a glass wall, which I like. There are separate areas - a bar area, dining, outside seating, and even a small room for private parties. I enjoyed my meal - for the most part - and felt that the portion sizes were good for the amount of food you got. My husband also enjoyed his meal (as well as what I couldn't eat of mine). Cons: Our waitress suggested getting the dry rub with bbq sauce on the side, which is what I did. It was good, but the ribs were simply too dry, even with the sauce. They certainly weren't the 'fall off the bone' ribs I was hoping for. Also, the service was just okay. We had to ask for everything: napkins and wet-naps (I am eating ribs....), drink refills, the check. Also, the place wasn't that busy, and our waitress was kind of absent. I noticed that the other waitress, the one who seated us, was running around all over the place, and she had a table of eight to boot. Ours never even asked how our meal was. Overall, not a bad experience. I would stop in again, but probably not my first choice. read more

3.5. Standard American fare restaurant. Lots of beer selection- "smoked" foods aren't very smoked

Salads are great. As is the grilled Salmon and Chicken. Waitress we had was very attentive and friendly. read more

First time, last time My wife and I stopped in for dinner. At 5 pm the server a young girl with glasses mentioned we had to leave at 7 pm. So table could be taken by next We had our meal with a couple drinks and done by 6pm. This was a first for us and also awkward Never had a restaurant mention that and never had to leave a review before. Probably 95% of people take less than a hour for dinner. If a few are longer that's what it is they should appreciate the local support. There are many restaurants in area that my patronage will go to and a last for this restaurant. read more

The Irwin area is finally picking up the pace with all of the new restaurants opening up. I like seeing these new ventures and added excitement. My friend and I decided to meet here for a light dinner. When I arrived the place was fairly packed. The hostess asked if I wanted a high table or a low table. Apparently, the right answer was to opt for the high table because I was seated right away. The couple waiting ahead of me asked the hostess if she forgot about them and she replied that I chose a high table and they chose a low table and one was not available yet. The happy hour drink and food menu is featured between 5-7. We arrived a few minutes before 7 so we were able to take advantage of a drink special and we tried the grilled pretzels which was served with a great tasting mustard sauce. I must admit I didn't study the menu that well because I quickly decided to try the beef brisket sandwich. I did notice they have burgers, wraps, salads and a few high end entrees etc. The brisket sandwich was ordinary but not in a bad way. I think I was expecting a little more flavor and the wow factor to kick in. My friend chose the chicken quesadilla's from the happy hour menu and the portion size was enough for a meal. I like the atmosphere and design of this place. It was a bit noisy but I suppose noisy is the in thing these days. They have a great outdoor patio area complete with a lit fire pit and they have a stash of blankets on hand in case you feel a little chilled. I plan to make a return visit to try out the menu again. I hope this isn't one of those places that cant find it's niche and keeps making changes to get there. read more

My fiancé and I were super excited to watch this place being built every time we went to target. When it finally opened, we could wait to see the inside because a name like "The Fire Pit" sounds awesome. The decorations were pretty basic, not a lot of fire pits like I was expecting. The bar is huge and has a garage door that can open to give it an open air bar feel. The menu is mostly made up of trendy BBQ dishes. Unfortunately, the dinner entrees are not available until after 4 so, we stuck with an entree and shared a 3 chicken taco dish. The Brisket Nachos that our waitress recommended were amazing, huge, and very filling. After having an incredible 1st dish, we were a little disappointed with the lack of flavor in our chicken tacos. The prices are average and the food and service are above average. Therefore, we agreed that we would be back! Next time we will defineitly come after 4 to have more options on the menu and to take advantage of their Happy Hour from 5-7. read more
