Just don't bother...\n\nHad dinner here last night for my birthday because apparently several of my husband's coworkers highly recommended this place. I'm not sure what food they're used to that they consider this good, but I certainly did not. The highlight of our meal was the appetizer and the vegetable of the day. Other than that, it was barely edible. \n\nStarting with drinks, I had a pear martini and hubby had a Long Island iced tea. The martini was thick and excessively sweet. Tasted like cheap pancake syrup. The Long Island was standard, nothing great but not bad. Though I would suggest a different glass or maybe a different colored straw, because halfway through our meal someone walked by (not our waiter) and topped it off with regular iced tea before we could even say anything.\n\nFor an appetizer we ordered the shrimp cocktail. I'd say this is pretty hard to mess up, but what made it really great were the sauces. It came with cocktail sauce as well as a jalape\u00f1o sauce. They were both fantastic! I assumed they were made in house, but I guess it's quite possible that the 1 thing we liked wasn't even made in the restaurant. \n\nFor dinner I ordered scallops (not on the menu, they were a special) with the vegetable of the day, and hubby had the BBQ trio with fries. \n\nMy scallops were awful. They came atop a lemon beurre blanc.  Both the sauce and the scallops were cold, they were missing the beautiful sear that I expect to see on scallops, and they were undercooked (still slimy in the middle). The vegetable of the day was a corn salad. That was the only good thing on the plate. It had corn, tomatoes, zucchini and queso fresco and it was delicious. I plan to make it at home.\n\nHubby's BBQ trio was nothing special. It had pulled pork, ribs, and rotisserie chicken. The meats were cooked well, the problem was the BBQ sauce was sugary sweet. Not really to our liking. The side of fries was the worst part of the dish. The menu touts fresh cut fries, well let me tell you, what we got was a soggy, greasy pile of junk. They didn't even look appetizing. I wish I had gotten a picture of them just to see how many people might actually be willing to eat them. I'm sure not many. \n\nAs far as decor goes, if you've ever been in a Firebirds, you've seen the inside of this place. Everything from the dark wood, to the open kitchen, to the back-lit liquor bottles at the bar. It's all the same. And the food at Firebirds is much better. \n\nThe one positive I can speak to (and the only reason for giving 2 stars instead of 1) was the service. We had a reservation and we were seated very quickly even though we arrived 20 mins early. And our waiter was very attentive and friendly. \n\nUnfortunately, the food was so bad I don't expect to ever be back.
