Our waiter was a nice guy (didn't get name, longer hair and mustache) and was attentive without being intrusive. They have a really good wine selection. I had several things off the menu, including the mussels and the brisket, and I thoroughly enjoyed everything. The garlic bread was prepared well without being too hard. The space is a little loud but not overly so; we were still able to have a pleasant conversation. Highly recommended.

Ambiance is very chill and homey. Nothing fancy. Chairs could be a bit more comfortable but that might just be my pregnant body not comfortable in firm upright chair lately. Food was amazing. I am picky about the fatty contents on meat I order. I know it's the best part to some but I can't get past the texture. I asked for brisket which is sometimes very fatty but server accommodated me saying I could ask for end cuts or more well done pieces and did not disappoint. Omg and that bread pudding!! My meal was delicious!

I have no idea Why this Firebirds location is sometimes rated lower than a 5! We have stopped here…read moreseveral times including last evening (6th) and sidled up to the bar. As always the bartenders were spot on and personable as well as willing to help on the menu selections. Drinks (A Manhattan and A Dirty Martini) professionally prepared and presented. Went with then Summer Special Peach Pork Chop and Mac. Look at the picture! Chop was 1st Class and perfectly delicious. The Mrs really is a fan of their Smoked Wings and as usual didn't disappoint. Large and meaty with just the right smoke. We even "dared" a small Caesar Salad in these trying lettuce times. Confident Firebirds was prepping properly in the back. Next time at Southpoint give this location a try!

I recently tried Firebirds for the first time while visiting North Carolina, and I was pleasantly…read moresurprised. Our server, Ella, was the true rockstar of the experience. She was so kind, attentive, and welcoming. The hostess also went above and beyond by helping my mom, who uses a wheelchair, with the front doors, which was greatly appreciated. We ordered from the lunch menu, and the prices were very reasonable. My son of course devoured his chicken fingers with French fries. My dad and sister split the burger and Mac and cheese. They said it was good. The only downside was that our food took quite a while to come out. I ordered the BLT Salad with a loaded baked potato on the side. The salad was fresh, but it had way too much dressing, so next time I'll definitely ask for it on the side. Overall, the friendly service made a lasting impression, and I'd be happy to give Firebirds another try.

A staple of the triangle area. I like taking guests/newcomers of the area here. The food--classic…read moreNew England/American fare--is consistently solid: not necessarily a "wow" experience, but always satisfying and reasonably priced for the portion sizes. The service is reliably good, and I especially appreciate the community atmosphere. It's the kind of place where you regularly see families gathering and large groups celebrating together. The cakes are the best - and one of the flavors I associate most with the area and my early days after moving here, very nostalgic! My personal favorite is the strawberry shortcake, which I find myself coming back for often!

What a great food memory. The fish here is top shelf in its preparation and flavor. The staff is very friendly. The portions are nice. Dining inside is a nice experience. It is not a huge dining area, but it is a perfect space where members of the community can gather over great fish and conversation. There are a few tables outside as well to enjoy the weather. Prices are what you would expect from freshly prepared fish meals. Not expensive but definitely not fast food prices. The fish changes daily so you should come often to experience the range of goodness! As you can tell, I highly recommend this restaurant.

This place wasn't a complete bust, but there were quite a few things that I didn't like…read more The restaurant opened at 11 and we were let in around 10:58 (kiddos for them for opening on time). They make you order and pay up front before you can sit down, which was not an issue for us. The 1st issue was none of the tables were cleaned. If we were the FIRST and ONLY guest in the restaurants, shouldn't the tables have been clean? The lady told us to pick a table and she would clean it. The wait wasn't long for the food, but my 2nd issue was the food was laid on the counter at the front and the women yelled to the back "Ma'am your food is ready, come and get it". I was slightly annoyed that we were eating inside the restaurant yet you yell for us to get food to bring back to our table instead of just bringing the food over. Same with the drinks, "come and get it" and laid it on the counter. Lady we are the ONLY people in this restaurant! No utensils were given, we had to fetch them ourself. No crab crackers were given we had to catch someone passing by to ask for them. I ordered the seafood boil for $42.99 (tax included) which includes 2 crab clusters (smalls ones), 6 shrimp, potatoes, corn and sausage. The presentation was nice, but the food wasn't seasoned well. I was not impressed at all by my food. The potatoes tasted undercooked, my corn tasted overcooked , the sausage was ok. The food wasn't TERRIBLE, but it wasn't GREAT either if that makes any sense. My mother ordered the fish and she didn't hate it, but said it wasn't seasoned well at all. Since the food wasn't absolutely terrible I'm willing to give them a 2nd chance, but since we were the first people there on a Monday, I really don't have high hopes they can sell me the 2nd time around.

It was also one of the Dad approved places when he visited. I am sad it is gone. I stopped in for happy hour and sat at the bar. They took their wine options off the HH menu, so I branched out and tried one of their specialty cocktails, a coconut crush. It was very pretty, but I didn't get a lot of coconut off of it. It mostly tasted like pineapple to me, and was very sweet. I also ordered the Ahi tuna wontons. THIS was why I was here and I was excited. A few minutes later, I was told they were out. At that point, I just decided to go back to my original dinner plans and called it a day, here. The service was just ok. The drink was ok. Being out of my favorite appetizer was a bummer. I may give it another try the next time I am in this area.

My friend and I made a reservation, so we were seated right away. Since it was our first time, our server was super friendly and gave us a few recommendations while answering all of our questions. The meal started with complimentary hushpuppies, which were a nice touch. I ordered the pan-seared crab cakes, and they were good--you could actually see plenty of crab throughout them. The mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables, though, were pretty bland and forgettable. Overall, I can see why Squid's is a Chapel Hill staple, and I think it's worth trying at least once!

Our server on this visit was Angelina, and she was personable, polite, and professional. She brought us or drinks and a basket of hushpuppies to start. We've eaten hush puppies at many restaurants, but these are exceptionally good! I asked Angelina to bring us three dipping sauces: tartar sauce, cocktail sauce and their delicious aioli mayonnaise. We devoured it all! For our dinner selection, we split a three-seafood combo meal of fried cod, scallops, and shrimp. It came with French fries and cole slaw. The portions were generous, and delicious. We'll be back!
