    The food and service at the Firehouse is consistently above average, way above average. The ambience in the main dining room is perfect for us, with music that is pleasant. Most restaurants play music so loud that you either don’t go back, or you run away from. At the Firehouse you can actually carry on a conversation. The food was excellent, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The wait staff is very attentive. We look forward to dining at the Firehouse again and again. Thank you Firehouse for being so reliable.

    There were 3 of us. We were seated in a booth and started our meal with the fish ceviche. Absolutely the best I’ve ever had and so very fresh. One of us had the salmon mango plate. One of us had the enchiladas Guanajuato and I had the enchiladas mole. Delicious! Each of us enjoyed every bite and then we shared a tres leches cake slice. What a nice way to end our meal. A very nice dining experience and I can’t wait to go back and try the strawberry salad that looked so good on the menu. Thank you Zócalo. Yummy.

    We have a family tradition of taking my mother in law out for a lovely Ruths Chris dinner every Christmas season. She is 91 now so it it very special. She looks forward to her one yearly Cosmopolitan cocktail and steak and lobster dinner. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious.

    Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and provided the best service. She was understanding that we were late for a reservation. Most of all she was aware of our time constraint as we were going to a Kings game and expertly timed our drinks, starters, and main dishes. She was superb! Thank you for the excellent meal and service!
