Draft beers are $5, the pizza's good, and the burgers are good too. Everyone in the family ordered something different but each for what they wanted. Great for families and particular eaters. read more

BEST PIZZA IN THE AREA HANDS DOWN. I had their green and white pizza last time I was in, delicious!!! The restaurant is cozy, and inviting, we were treated well and again, the pizza was amazing. TO be honest it has been awhile since I have eaten here but I have no doubt the food is still amazing read more

This place sucks, ,most of the tables were dirty, I order the chicken sandwich it had a lot of old lettuce, the tomato was old, the avocado was black which I paid extra, the bun smell moldy, instead of a chicken patty they use 2 really small frozen chicken strips, the fries were okay, the female cashier had no personality, the salt containers were dirty, one had a dead fly inside and a small piece of chip, I sprinkle some salt on my fries that's when I notice the dead fly and chip, gross, my daughter oder a cheeseburger she only ate half, the meat patty smell old, my husband order the fish and chips, he said it was okay but nothing special,save your money go somewhere else read more

The food is so good! The burritos are huge and delicious and so are the pizzas. Good prices too, and they have selections for vegans/vegetarians which I love! read more

The people that are writting bad reviews on this restarunt I am guessing dont know too much about pizza, or they have not tried any of the other meals there. I generally get the fish tacos and black beans meal there. This meal is huge. For a grand total of $6 you can be full off this. As for their pizza, it is cooked in a wood fire oven. Now, for those of you that dont know what the major difference between a wood oven and a convection oven like you would find at a normal pizzaria, I will give you a lesson in modern technology. A convection oven, like found at Round Table, or Pizza Hut, uses waves of convection heat to heat the pizza. These waves, actually disperse cold fronts which are found around the item that you are cooking. A standard oven, like one found it your house does not do this. And that is why there can be cold spots on the one found at home, or even spots that were not cooked. It is also the difference between a time frame of about 4 minutes through a convection oven, and a 40 minutes for one that is found in a household. Now, if you took that same pizza, from say...Round Table, and cooked it in a wood stove oven like at Firewood, which is fully run on burning of wood and has a huge open door way...the pizza would take probably over an hour too cook. (In case you couldnt tell, I worked pizza for years) Yes, the pizza is thin, so they can cook it and get it out in around 10 minutes or less. They use a flat bread with less yeast. Their pizza is also much less greesy than one from Pizza Hut. So, consitering, their pizza is actually very good. It is a good atmosphere and the prices are very affordable. I take my brothers and sister there along with my friend and we usually eat till we are full for under $30. If you are not full after eatting here, get another meal. Their average cost is only $6 or so. There is no outdoor seating, but they have a huge roll up door, which the open during business hours and it puts you half outside. read more

My family and I ordered 2 pizzas that we were very excited for. Our margarita pizza came and we quickly told our server I don't think we got the right pizza. It was thin as paper, very dark with cheese that was baked five times too long and had old basil leaves loosely floating around in the middle. We tried a bite, but it wasn't even edible. Our second pizza was decent but a frozen one from my freezer would have Been a Better choice. Getting our money back was great, that's after the rude server and an employee that told me I must wait in line with the pizza my family won't be eating. I can handle a poor meal, but rude staff is more than I can take. We will stick to round table ;) read more

We were recommended this restaurant but were quite disappointed. Stark atmosphere, dirty floors, and generally a "cafeteria" feel which lacks any ambiance. Menu consists of pizzas, burgers and tacos. Really slow service. We placed our order at the counter and sat and waited.....and waited....and waited for two tacos. When food arrived it was plopped down on the table with no acknowledgement from server. Each taco was a good size - one fish and one shrimp. While the shrimp was over cooked and tough, the toppings were fresh and very tasty. Fish in the fish tacos was moist and cooked just right. We tried two of the four salsas with the tacos and enjoyed both. The Verde/green sauce has a nice element of heat and the pico de Gallo was fresh and tasted good. read more

Restaurant was dirty. Salad had old tomatoes and wilted lettuce Pizza was good but will not go again read more

Fish tacos were out of this world. I just wish I had decided to get 3 fish tacos instead of the 2 tacos with rice and beans. Best fish tacos I think I've ever had. Definitely would come back if in the area. Totally reasonably priced and kid friendly! read more

Food was just ok. Not fabulous but ok for a quick meal. I had the margarita pizza, others we were with had Caesar salad and didn't care for the dressing. Fish tacos were good by others in our party. read more

Pizza and tacos...done really well! Great food and quick service. Nice spot in Murphy's!

Incredibly rude and racist staff. I wish I could say something went right. Food was incorrect, rude waiter, overpriced and a 1 star rating is more then they deserve. When we to the server the food was wrong she told us to bring it to the counter. WHAT? Should we go cook our food ourselves also? Probably should have and it would have been right. The cooks were all behind counter making comments about how our food was close enough, damn morons. Seriously skip this rat hole and go else where. I'm disgusted by the way we were treated. read more

Their pizza isn't my favorite. However tonight we had the super nachos, which were super yummy. Had real shredded meat, real cheese, delish. We also had turkey burgers. They were also very yummy. Good size. Juicy and flavored well. We had regular and sweet potato fries. The regular fries were barely average but the sweet potato fries are delicious. I will go back for sure. read more

The first thing I noticed was that the tables were littered with napkins and crumbs, and that there seemed to be no sign of an employee coming to clean them up. After cleaning our own table, we ordered, and after 25 minutes, received tiny pizzas. They tasted decent, but the spicy sausage pizza only contained sausages on the lower third of each slice. Sure, before the pizza was cut, having a nice center of sausages was probably aesthetically pleasing. But you know what's not pleasing at all. Picking up a slice and realizing there's only one sausage on it. We decided to order another pizza because we were a large group and hadn't ordered enough, and the order came back wrong the first time. Other than that, the pizzas tasted decent. However, why were the only plates ugly little Dixie paper plates? Not even the large ones, mind you. They gave us those tiny Dixie plates that people only use for microwavable samosas and other finger food. In addition, the napkins were disproportionately enormous. Like, so large that they were taller and wider than my hands. I'm not trying to be petty, but I'm just confused - the attention to detail in this restaurant was just not present and it looked like someone had sent two different people to the dollar store to get plates and napkins. Overall, if Firewood released a mix tape, it WOOD not be . read more

This is my absolute favorite restaurant to get sweet potato fries from. They are crispy, and sweet, and very lightly salted, and I absolutely love the combination of sweet potato fries and a chicken burrito with black beans. Where else can I go to get that fantastic combination?! read more

We were in Murphy's for wine tasting. We asked our host at Frog tooth winery where should we eat dinner? She recommended the fish tacos here. We are so glad we took her recommendation. The fish was excellent it had a tempura type batter that was crispy on the outside and tender and flaky on the inside. We had the meal which came with a choice of beans and Spanish rice. I love black beans and we opted for those. All in all a great meal at a great price. read more

Yes the fish tacos are amazing the pizza is amazing their carnitas is amazing the hatchet to open the door in the front entrance is amazing. I'd say all in all Firewood hits the spot. I wish there was table service. I wish the place had better seating although a cool layout it's lacking in seating! Also I wish they sold s'mores for dessert. Camp fire, Firewood it's all the same. read more

I've never been here before. Food was ok, prices were decent but the service was terrible. No one seemed to be happy to be working. I understand that but it's still your job while your at work to provide at least fake decent customer service. The cashier Sharon was very rude. I ordered the super nachos and just asked what came on them and then requested they just put the veggies on the side. She responded," so you basically want everything on the side". As if it was a HUGE inconvenience. Then they messed up the order and brought us items we didn't order and proceeded to tell me that I did order it. I showed them my receipt so they would stop arguing with me. ImI will not be returning because of the customer service. read more

Between the flies, food and server attitude this place was no bueno. So many flies were in the dining area we decided to sit under a fan which helped somewhat. I think the big screen that was pulled down in front of the place should have been a clue. We ordered fish tacos since a few locals raved about them. OMG,they were nasty, worst I've ever eaten. But, then again not many can compete with Rosie's at the Beach in Morgan Hill. I can't even begin to describe the Ceasar salad, someone must have no idea how to prepare anything. Even the chips were stale. We left our food and the flies to finish it. Will not be returning. Yucko. read more

Good for kids, the lobotomized, or people who recently had their tastebuds removed. That is to say, I am a taco snob, and the tacos here are as inspired as reality TV. Can't speak about the pizza. read more

I heart this place! It's absolutely perfect for a quick lunch while wine tasting...which is exactly what we were in for. They have a good variety and the layout of the restaurant is cool with nice wood booths and an upstairs area. I had chicken fingers and sweet potato fries (I know, what adult orders chicken fingers? This one!). My fiance had a burger and regular fries. All great, fast service...good times. We'll be back to try the rest of the yum yums they offer. read more

Great spot to grab a bite in Murphy's. If you are headed to a concert at Ironstone, get here early. The place fills up and the wait is long... to be expected on concert days. But grab a pitcher of beer and chill with friends while waiting for the grub. read more

Firewood is a great alternative to the other pricey options in Murphys. It is a order at the counter place so the service is really just delivering food to your table. The night we ate there, they were packed with 20 or so hungry firemen coming off the Mariposa fire. We were told there was going to be a 30-40 minute wait for pizza, which was totally understandable and we appreciated the head's up. My mother and I ordered a Ceasar salad and a bottle of wine to fill in the gap. My husband ordered the mushroom swiss burger. Both were excellent. The salad was easily splittable. The hamburger was huge and came with an abundant helping of fries. The pizza arrived in less that 30 minutes. My 14 year old son devoured the margarita pizza and my mom and I split the proscuitto & arugala pizza and even took a couple pieces home for the next day. The wine and beer prices are very reasonable and they have 4-5 beers on tap. We have never tried the Mexican items, but will keep coming back for the pizza and hamburgers. read more

Yum yum yum:) obviously delicious mexican and american food. Im sure they have other cuisine but those r my faves great space, especially upstairs...its just funner. Staff is great, very friendly. Ingredients taste fresh and cooked deliciously. Dont forget to try the salsa!!!! read more

Great food for the price. We had the two taco lunch with black beans & rice. Very fresh & the fish tacos were pollock & so tasty. The seasoning was great & service good! Murphy's is a fun place to visit & Firewood is worth trying. read more

The fish tacos are awesome. We do take out to avoid big lines and the not-so-ambient cinderblocktopia that is the inside of the restaurant. Again, I highly recommend the takeout fish tacos, and it might be pleasant enough to sit during the day if you get one of the two tables by the street. But this is not a place to sit down for an experience. Grounds, Firewood's sister restaurant, is tremendous, and does better on the ambiance side. read more

Best fish tacos around. And pizzas are great as well. Fast and friendly service. I always end up eating here when other places fail to impress read more

I do like this restaurant. I love there chicken and carnitas burritos, I like to order w/o beans to much filler and gas. My husband usually orders a fish version of whatever they got he like it too. My kids are very vanilla and only order safe foods like quesadilla's or hamburgers. They do have great hamburgers also, if your into redmeat. read more

Nice atmosphere here, open air loft feel. Got the cheeseburger & fries, soooo good! Very juices and the thousand island spread is really good! read more

I had the fish and chips. It was crispy and flavorful. My Mom and Grandma shared the nachos, due there large portion size. My father had a yummy burger which was large and he could not finish it. I love the axe handles. Great atmosphere for families and kids. read more

My lousy phone died, or I would have provided some tempting photos of the deliciousness offered up here. We had been playing in the snow all day, and by 6:30 the entire crew was super dupes ravenous. Stopped in here because we saw kids in the window. Family friendly, loud place= we're in! This is the type of place where you order at the counter, and they bring it to your table. Step 1: have someone in your party secure your table, and advise to look up the menu on their phone and text you their order. The line moved verrrry slowly, BUT- the servers were all helpful and friendly. Naturally, herds of hungry humans stand around making the status of the line confusing at times. It's also hard to scooch by to get to the bathrooms or properly view my booze options for the evening. Just be patient, the crazy line and narrow space will be worth it. Step 2: sit down and prepare to be impressed. Here is the important part- the food was absolutely lovely! I didn't order the pizza, because we get pizza all of the time at home. And just like Julia Roberts said in Pretty Woman, "Big Mistake!" My husband kindly offered some of his. It was unfortunate that his pizza came about 10 minutes before everyone else's food. We couldn't help ourselves. The kids and I ate half of his pizza. I don't even know where to start: the cheese was toasted to perfection, the sauce had just enough flavor, and the dough was so fresh- it was unbelievable. I was filled with regret. Not your average pizza. But, I'll be back ( right, Terminator -I know) My veggie burrito was the real deal. It had tofu and eggplant, and real flavor! Sometimes a veggie burrito is just some beans and cheese that scream "you win, there's no meat in here, I hope you're happy." Not the case here- chili chipotle flavor sauce, cool guacamole, pinto ( or black beans if you want) cheese, and actual non-slimy veggies. My only criticism is that it came wrapped in a plain cold flour white store bought plastic package looking/tasting tortilla. If that were a toasty tasty tortilla, it would have been the veggie burrito that fantasies were made of. I must add that my kids' chicken strips were also so good. The batter on them was far superior to most chicken strips I've had. Normally, those little monkeys leave a lot of leftover food. Not this time, they all commented on how tasty and crispy they were. Full disclosure, I was hoping that I would have scored an extra strip. Nope. Even the scrawny little five year old demolished her dinner. We walked in because we felt it was a good spot for families, and we left full and beyond impressed with the food. Looking forward to returning- and having pizza. read more

We ordered the mushroom pizza, chicken tacos with rice and beans, and a regular salad. Everything was extremely bland. The pizza crust and sauce we're uninspired, and the only redeeming flavors to be found were the mushrooms - but some of them tasted like they'd gone bad. The chicken tacos had no flavor at all. My "full size" salad consisisted of lettuce and three slices of tomato - and could be eaten in three bites. I assume a half size salad would consist of four pieces of lettuce....Pretty disappointing meal. I gave it one star because we will never be going back nor would I ever recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

I am officially a fan of the pizzas now, too. Especially the garlic,spinach-y one. YUM! And Hubby loves the nachos. Still kid-friendly, chicken strips with fries (or sweet potato fries) are a winner with the munchkin. read more

Been here a couple of times while in the area and it's just "eh". This time the place was overwhelmed with flies which made dining uncomfortable. The pizza were both overcooked and burned in places and just didn't taste FRESH. Though affordable we felt disappointed. The tacos looked pretty good. Maybe that's the way to go next time? If there is a next time. read more

BEST FISH TACOS ANYWHERE!! Seriously, I base ALL my fish tacos off of Firewood and few come close to comparing. I have gotten many friends and family who claim to not even like fish tacos, to decide they are great and even start to crave them themselves. They are cheap, so order one and try it...it's enough to split into 2 tacos and seriously, DELICIOUS! read more

Well, we came from an over an hour and half away to have dinner here. It was recommended by friends and my husband had eaten here before and said the tacos were really good. So we decided to both have the chicken strips and I had a glass of wine (why wouldn't I since I was in Murphy's ). Everyone was safe, wearing masks, but when my husband brought my wine out to me it was in a juice glass. Really? I'm in Murphys where every few steps there is a tasting room, and I get wine in a juice glass! So anyway, our food came out and I quickly realized that they WAAAYYYY over compensate the fries for the lack of chicken strips. My fries alone could have fed a table of 4! They are skinny fries, they would have been much better as some wedge fries! And now the chicken strips... just don't bother. There was more crispy on the outside than chicken on the inside, and they were dry and hard. So I'm not sure about the rest of the menu, but I wouldn't ever get the chicken strips again, and don't expect a wine glass of wine. I saw on a table next to us the rose' was in a can! read more

Tacos. Get them. Marvelous. What kind? Doesn't matter. They're all delicious. Pollo, Carnitas, Fish, all of them are tasty. I have not tried the burgers, but I am told by dining companions that they are great. So far, I have not dined with anyone that ordered the pizza, and when I go there, I am on a street taco mission, so I apologize, but I cannot speak for the pizza except to say that it is rumored highly to be quite good. As good as the tacos are, they are a bit overpriced, which I chalk up to location. Murphy's being the tourist attraction mini wine-mecca that it is, and being located on main street, over-charging seems to be a running theme in this town. One of the best things (and in some cases one of the worst things) about Firewood is the decor. Casual, for sure. Odd and quirky, at times, too much so. Many people have mentioned the ax door handle on the entrance door, which is unique and cool. It is also my opinion that they have missed a fantastic opportunity in creating a really great space in the loft section of the place. The industrial style staircase is cool... made even more so by the ax-handle railing. And then that is where they dropped the ball. The potential for that space is vast, and yet somehow they managed to make it look naked and weird, with freaky artwork and zero ambience. It turned out looking like a walk-in kitchen-storage closet, complete with boring cabinets and dirty windows. It appears that they got bored with the decorating once they reached the top of the stairs. Not my idea of a nice space to eat in. It could be so very much more. All that aside, the food at Firewood is worth the trip and I think you will be happy with whatever you decide to order, even if you will have to shell out a few dollars more than you should. Bottom Line: Comparably priced food for this town. Tasty tacos, fast service and a cool little hangout, if you remain downstairs. I'm told the burgers are quite good, and so is the pizza, but you'll have to decide on those yourself, for I am just quoting my dining companions. If you're undecided, the tacos are always a good bet. read more

Great pizza. Cheapest place in Murphys to get something good to eat. It's rare to find a place in California that has wood fired pizza ovens. Love it ! You get the good old fashioned crust this way, and no other way. read more

This place doesn't look like much from the outside, but if you are a fish taco fan you won't be disappointed. They also serve pizza, and although I've never had that, it smelled good and the people that had it looked satisfied. The fish tacos are the way to go thought. Good service and good value for your money. read more

Firestone is a local restaurant in downtown Murphys. They have "order at the counter" and seat yourself service. We came on a Friday around noon and it was really packed. The line was to the door and we ended up waiting around 20 minutes to order. I was recommended to order the fish tacos and I'm so glad that I did. I ordered 3 fish tacos ($2.65 each) and that was enough to fill me up. Highly recommend this place for a less expensive place that still has a delicious taste and flavor! read more
