Editorial Review for Fireplace Inn – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Low lighting, red linen tablecloths and dark wood paneling gives this Old Town dining room a classic family-restaurant feel. With its fully retractable roof, the patio is bright and modern, boasting a bar, 12 TVs and a handful of tables. Tangy, fall-off-the-bone barbecue baby back ribs are a menu specialty, with steak, seafood and salads playing supporting roles. Another winner: barbecued chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy.

The food here is good, but not anything special. I was a little perturbed at the fact that I was paying $30.00 for a steak, and yet the wine was served to me in a plastic cup.... How 'bout a wine glass for goodness sake! My husband had a good meal also, but again was served a guiness beer in a plastic cup. Not the classiest of places, but just ok... Service was nothing to write home about, but the place was really busy with St. Patrick's day revelers.....

Pros: Very close to Second City, great for dinner and a show

Cons: Overpriced for average food...

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
