Good option for a healthy lunch!

Ok surprising little find. Wanted something light like a sandwich to grab on our way home and found…read morethis place. Great ratings so we thought we would try. Very good! Very inventive. We got the Mona Lisa - most popular. Venus de Milo and the Starry Night as corned beef. Mona Lisa was a hit with my mom. Starry Night had a bit more sauerkraut than corned beef but still tastes good. And my VdM was sloppy but very good too. It's a wrap and 1 half was big enough. It was very very good. And we got the tots. They have cream soda and other natural pops. The cashier was super nice and helpful since we never been. He gave us hints. The place is small but has some seats. The tables are artist pallets. Cool. And you can draw on them with chalk. Sandwiches good. Not cheap but good. Not bad spot for lunch or quick grab. 1 knock is that the sit down tables were pretty messy. No one cleaned them off or kept up with it at all.

In response to Milen D's recent review of Firestones(which I witnessed)…read more I honestly can't decide what's more embarrassing: your experience at the restaurant or the fact that you thought this review was worth posting. You apparently walked in expecting the entire establishment to revolve around your very specific demands, got disappointed, called someone a "clown," accused them of lying, and then produced this barely decipherable masterpiece of nonsense. The staff didn't fail you--you failed to understand where you were, what they offered, and apparently how restaurants work. And judging by the grammar and coherence of this review, I'm not sure you were in any condition to be evaluating anyone else's performance. Being unhappy with a meal is one thing. Throwing a tantrum because a restaurant didn't conform to whatever bizarre expectations you had in your head is another. Do everyone a favor next time: stay home, lower your expectations, and let the adults enjoy their dinner without having to witness another episode of The World's Most Confused Customer. The restaurant got one bad review. You got permanently immortalized as the person who wrote it. I'd say one of those is considerably harder to recover from.

Firestone's Kitchen…read more This was the BEST pizza I've had in Erie as a traveller looking to settle here. I've tried 3 others, mostly very flat on crust or flavor (all independent places). Firestone's pizza has an excellent char, solid sauce and flavorful toppings. The restaurant also has a beer/wine store, and a eye pleasing meat counter/butcher. I have no complaints - friendly service, fair priced pizza for excellent quality, and the liquor section has some charm to the decor. ***From the road, look for Gordon's (even though Firestone Kitchen is the eatery). Gordon's is more prominent from the road.

She was lovely! We ordered shish tawook(chicken breast) sandwiches and a fattoush salad. The sandwich was just the right size with fresh ingredients and came with a sode of simply prepared "syroan" rice (olive oil, carrots, and zaatar) Tasty! The fatoush salad arrived quickly and was very flavorful. The high quality olives and zaatar spices were a particular treat. The dressing was simple olive oil and zaatar Excellent! We are glad we stopped for this late lunch in the early part of the week.Recommend!

The presentation of the food is always handled artfully and with pride. The tea is very good as well. In a addition to that, the proprietor is very sweet and motherly.

The food came out quickly, and the cashier was friendly. I tried the broccoli salad, which had cranberries and raisins.

There's also a nice selection of gifts that are fun to browse. Overall, it's a great spot for lunch I'll be back.

But went here a few times a couple years back and every time I've been here, I've always been impressed with the food and their service. The salmon was great. As good as it looks. I've actually preferred other dishes I've had here previously. But this salmon is excellent. Will be back. Hopefully sooner than later.

Am in town once a month for business and started going to Firebirds to get a good steak. Wood…read morefired and flavorful is what I was after. The first few times here the steaks were very good. A nice char and flavorful. I almost always order the NY Strip as it's my favorite cut. Tonight when my steak came out if was flat as a pancake and looked more like a thinner version of a ribeye but way larger and wider. Definitley not think and certainly not a 'strip.' Waitress and host checked and came back and said....."Yes it's a NY Strip....it must just have been the way our butcher cut it." Well, if that's the way he cuts a NY Strip you need a new butcher. The fact it says "strip" in the name is a clue. I asked for it medium rare and it was cooked as ordered. But it was so thin a cut.....it didn't have time to develp a good char or sear and the result was the steak cooled quickly, was not as flavorful and in fact tasted a bit mushy. Ate about half of it. Manager was nice enough to give a break on the bill (although I did not ask for it.) I have dined here I think 4 different times and this was my first mediocre or bad meal. Hope they get back to serving a properly cut and thick NY Strip.....if not.....I won't return as what I was served tonight was not up to their standards or mine.

The guys were all welcoming and friendly and even offered to bring my order to my car for me. I went for the lunch special, 2 Greek dogs (coney's with mustard and onion) and a drink. The hot dogs had a little snap (which I love!) and the coney sauce was appropriately spicy with a tiny kick of heat. The buns seemed steamed, which was also great, in my opinion. I also ordered a side of fried mushrooms- wow! The small size was definitely enough for two! But man! Probably the best fried mushrooms I've ever had. The batter was light and fluffy and also nicely crispy. Perfect! So happy I found this little Greek diamond. And that, folks, is all she wrote.
