Perogis
Katie V.

I got to FireBrew and was pleased that it wasn't super busy. The lovely ladies working were super friendly and got me seated in a booth. My sister and I celebrated restaurant week enjoying a chance to try out their food. Regan helped us and she is superb. I tried the perogis and the mushroom onion burger. The perogis are fantastic, the burger was tasty and perfectly cooked. Honestly the only part of my meal that wasn't delightful were the potato wedges, they were hot and soft but not crisp. I was slightly disappointed by the fact that they weren't nicely crisp. My sister got the bacon wrapped BBQ shrimp which were quite tasty. I will definitely be back.

Lemon Caper Parrotfish

My husband and I visited during VB Restaurants week and we were really impressed with the special menu options, so we had to give them a try. We started with the She Crab and the Potato and Cheese soups; the She Crab had plenty of real crab, but the Potato and Cheese ended up being our favorite. For our second course, we shared the Crab Dip and Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp-both were so good we'd absolutely order them again. For our third course, we had the Bison Meatloaf and the Lemon Caper Parrotfish, and both dishes were delicious and really well prepared. There was so much food that we couldn't finish and took the rest home, and it was just as tasty the second day after reheating (definitely ask your server for reheating tips!). The staff was fantastic-Always checking on us to ensure everything was perfect. Even when our server was tied up, another team member promptly stepped in to follow up. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

What a cozy, upscale gem! Walking in, you're greeted by a hostess & the beautiful display of decor. The location is on the smaller side, but feels accommodating to larger party sizes. The parking is open and ample. Let me say, the rewards are worth signing up for! Firebrew has wine on tap which I thought was pretty cool. You could come in dressed to the 9 or in sweats and they'd treat you the exact same, full focus prized on you & making your experience there special. Now the good, good! The FOOD! Impeccable. When I say yum with every bite, I mean- jaw dropped open, felt it through my entire body, YUM! I'll say, I'm never overly impressed with food. But this place, hats off to the chef! The Mac and cheese is gooey, creamy and generous in portion size. The sandwich I got is a delicious fancy grilled cheese hugged with cranberry bread which may sound a little odd at first but it gave a gentle sweetness to every crunchy bite. My mouth is watering while writing this review. Also listed was the risotto I had paired with the grilled cheese on another visit (it was so good, I got the grilled cheese twice in a row) which was also delicious & comforting to be paired with! My friend & I split the flight, of in house fruity mimosas, truly, not my favourite option here- but still yummy! She also got the steak with mashed potatoes and corn, a classic that she said was decadent & dreamy! If you haven't visited Firebrew, go now, thank me later!

We had dinner recently at FIREBREW Bar & Grill located at 1253 Nimmo Parkway in the heart of Virginia Beach. They have a great menu lineup and the service is great. We sat at the bar and chatted with the bartender. Our food came out quickly. We had a great experience here!

Firebrew Bar & Grill is located in the Red Mill Landing Shopping Center. They are near the corner of General Booth Blvd. and Nimmo Pkwy. You can enter the shopping center from Nimmo Pkwy at the first right after the intersection. There is an apartment complex behind them and CVS is next door to the shopping center. My most recent visit here was on December 24, 2024. Parking can be a bit dicey in the shopping center. Most of the parking spaces near the restaurant are for compact cars only. I don't see many compact cars out there (my car happens to be compact), and those with the bigger vehicles park there anyways. Each one of those vehicles takes up at least two parking spots, and in some cases. four parking spaces. There are non-compact parking spaces further back, so those larger vehicles should park there instead. Every time I have been here, the restaurant has been well maintained, both inside and outside. They do have outdoor seating, but it does become heated covered seating during the winter season. When I come in, I usually ask for Hannah. She's been our server several times here and we have had a good connection when it comes to eating here. She knows what I usually get when I visit, though I do change things up a bit at times. As for the menu, they have quite the drink menu, as well as a wine bar. The food menu is changeable. There are several items, usually those on the Seasonal Delights portion of the menu, that will change with the seasons. I had a birthday coupon, so that's what brought me in on this latest visit. I've always had great experiences each time I have been here. I just hadn't been in for a while, along with other places as I was getting some medical issues in order. Now that I have that under control, I have been able to get back into visiting different places again. I also had a free appetizer coupon for purchasing a gift card recently. Within the past year or so, they changed their rewards program so that it's not something just through Messenger now. The new rewards program has a similar setup to many other places where you earn points for purchases and can get a coupon after reaching a certain point threshold. Since this was during my birthday month, I had some foods that I normally don't eat, as I have been in diabetic remission for about 18 months and counting. With the free appetizer, I went with the soft pretzels. I only did water for a drink. When it came time to order, I went with the Full Rack of BBQ Baby Back Pork Ribs. They didn't have green beans as an option on this visit, so I went with the baked potato wedges instead. My mom went with the Creamy Potato Soup (soup of the day) and the Potato & Cheddar Pierogis appetizer. Shortly after ordering the entrées, the soft pretzels with beer cheese dip came out to the table. Those pretzels were soft and fulfilling. The beer cheese dip was a great complement to the pretzels. Did the pretzels spike my blood sugar? Yes, but it was so good. The main courses came out pretty quickly. I hadn't even finished the pretzels yet when they came out. They have always been fast though in my experiences. The ribs looked really good and it was time to eat. The ribs were fall off the bone good. This is one of my favorite entrée items here. The baked potato wedges were really good too. My mom loved the soup and the appetizer she got as the entrée. I did not go for any desserts though. Overall, this has been another great experience here. The food and service have been on point. Make sure to join their rewards program if you haven't done so already. If you're looking for a nice local place for lunch or dinner, this place is worth checking out.

Pizza

My wife and I have been there for lunch and dinner several times I've had just about everything on their menu and love just about everything a few that I don't care for personal taste they have three salmon dishes that are absolutely phenomenal they also have pizzas and flatbreads and extensive bar and a wine selection that just Rivals almost anybody.

Stopped in again to try Firebrew again. We started off with steakbites and the cranberry bread. The steakbites were cooked very well and quite tasty. The cranberry bread was very good, but the oil and balsamic really didn't go well with it. If this was served with sweet cream butter with flake salt it would be awesome! My son had the steak salad which was very good and my wife and daughter had the bacon wrapped shrimp. They both enjoyed their meal. I had the bourbon pork chop which was quite flavorful but was very over cooked. Again, the star of this meal was Aaliyah. She was extremely personable and friendly all while training a new member of the Firebrew team. She was knowledgeable of the menu and had great suggestions for wine and food. I'm not sure where the owner is getting the staff from, but they are wonderful!

Firebrew bar and grill was great. Came during there lunch hours andnthey have a pretty good special where 2 can eat for 15 each. The food selction was really good as well. This is my first time here and i choose to get the kal pesto chicken flatbred pizza in which i thought was delicious. Before the main course i had an appetizer pretzelnwhichbwas also delicious. The course inteciever included a garden salad with a basamic vingerette. The vingertte was flavorful. In addition to my i had the firebrew old fashioned. Which very well made and constructed cocktail. Not as strong as i am use to but good. Finally, calped off with a littl desert. Which was coolie dough ice cream and cheesecake with raspberry drizzle. All very delicious. The waitres was ver attentive and nice delivered everything expdiently. Only reason the rating was not higher was due to under cooked chicken that was delivered to the table. They rectified the matter by cooking a new batch to go. I would definitely give them another try and see if we can bump that rating up. But overall. Goodbjob.

Chicken Sando

Great service on the patio. It was my pup and I and we both enjoyed the chicken sandwich and fries. Fries were amazing. Sandwich was huge and will be lunch tomorrow! Delicious

She efficiently handled taking care of all 20 of us at 2 separate tables with a great attitude. One of our party members had an issue with her salad and Hannah was kind enough to get us a replacement to go. Our drinks were always filled, we got plenty of plates and boxes, and she was constantly checking in on us to see if we needed anything! One of the most attentive waitresses I've had. The food was great too, I had a gluten free All The Way pizza and it was LOADED, almost too many toppings! The crust was slightly softer than I prefer but that just comes with all the wet toppings. The rest of our party was also very pleased with their food & experience in general! Thank you Shorebreak for a spectacular dinner!

Our server was Lauryn, and she was great. She was nice and attentive but not worrisome. We had the Wisconsin Cheese Curds along with the house made Sangria. As an entree, I had the whiskey burger with truffle fries. I really liked the cheese curds; they're a lot flavorful than traditional mozzarella sticks. The house made sangria was really good too! We had to stop ourselves from just sucking it down. The burger is where I had the issue. It was a little on the dry side.... Too well done despite asking for medium. It also wasn't seasoned well. The only flavor rally came from the bbq sauce and onion straws. The truffle fries were good though. The menu said they won't best burger of Virginia Beach, and that was made me get a burger. Not the best burger I've ever had. Next time, I will try the pizza and probably go to the Shore drive location since that is closer to my house. Again, the vibe, service, and scenery was worth the drive.. the food not so much.

The outside of the place isn't hard to find or see. When you look at it from the outside, it looks more like a tropical type of theme. Parking did seem pretty limited as they were busy when my mom and I got here. Based on that, parking can be severely limited during peak times. Once we came inside, it definitely looked like a tropical theme, which was easy to see throughout the place. Another big thing I noticed as soon as we came in (and remained the case the entire time) that it was excessively loud. It was hard to hear each other, and even our server. I never got over to the outdoor seating area as it was pretty busy. We were greeted by a hostess at the counter and we were immediately seated. With it being busy as it was, our server came over to the table and said she would be back shortly, though it was a bit longer than expected. Someone else came by to ask if we wanted water while waiting for her to come back and we both did that. Once she was able to come to the table, we weren't quite ready to order yet, but I did get the Bay Bloody Mary. The Bay Bloody Mary was good and did have a kick to it, as expected, though more than I thought. It was still good though. After a few more minutes, we were ready to order. I decided to go for The Lesner With a Waffle as the main course item, scrambled eggs, and bacon with Cheese Grits and a Fried Biscuit as the side items. My mom ordered the Jamaican Dark Rum French Toast entree with bacon and a fruit skewer. Given how busy it was, I was surprised that food came out about ten minutes later after ordering. The food looked really good and hot when it came out. I don't normally do a waffle, but that waffle was really good. I only put butter on it as I didn't want to add even more sugar to the meal already. The bacon was nice and crispy as requested. I wasn't sure how the Cheese Grits would be, but they were surprisingly good. The last item I had was the Fried Biscuit. Wow that one was a highlight for sure, though I won't do that one too often. My mom said the entree she had was good too and there were no issues. Overall, this was a good visit. I would give it 3.5 stars but rounding to 4 in this case due to the great food. The biggest negatives were the noise levels, as it was hard to talk to anyone there, and they automatically add an 18% tip for all transactions, regardless of party size. Given the circumstances, the service was good too. I will come back in the future, but maybe not on a weekend or around a holiday where it gets busier than normal. This place is worth checking out if you are in the area and looking for something to choose from to eat at.
