So happy I finally tried this place. I'll definitely be back!

We came in on a Saturday afternoon and it was slammed! Thankfully we didn't have to wait too long for a table. The staff are super helpful and nice.

We had a really nice couple of hours as a family and it's not overly expensive for the item and experience. Drop your pieces, pay, then come back to pick them up after they've been fired.

After waiting in line while the workers joked around and took their time filling orders, finally got the food. The empanadas were bland and over cooked. The chicken tenders were dry and VERY greasy and the fries were just flat out inedible! They were undercooked, and just a soggy greasy mess. I squeezed one in a napkin and the napkin was just soaked in nasty oil. I am not exaggerating when I tell you we threw nearly all of this food away. Had a couple of bites of empanada and chicken tenders, picked up a couple fries and that was enough to know, so everything else was tossed out. It was a complete waste of time and money. If you ever see this concession group anywhere you are, go eat anywhere else! Nothing could be as bad as the food they serve. They really ought to be ashamed of themselves taking money for the garbage they put out.

It was super chill. The ambience was cool very inviting very friendly. Would definitely go again.

Started with the gator bite that was meaty and not gamey, one of the best tasting gators I've had in Florida. We then tried the frog legs and fish tacos, both were portioned generously with lots of meat. The live music added a nice touch to the vibe of a dockside experience on a Saturday night. Don't expect anything fancy, you may be sharing your meal with a few harmless spiders on the ceiling but they are there to catch the bugs. Wait staff were super friendly and quick to serve.

I was excited to try the brick oven pizza here, but unfortunately it didn't quite live up to my…read moreexpectations. My pizza came out with burnt edges, and overall I felt it was only slightly better than the Tony's frozen pizza brand I've had from the grocery store. The atmosphere was also not what I expected for a pizza outing. This is more of a cafeteria-style setup where you order at the counter rather than having table service. If you're looking for a casual quick meal, that may be fine, but it didn't have the cozy pizza restaurant feel I was hoping for. Also, don't come expecting to enjoy a glass of wine or a beer with your pizza -- there is no alcohol available. The drink selection is limited to bottled non-alcoholic options and fountain drinks. I appreciate the concept of brick oven pizza, but based on my experience, I was expecting more in terms of flavor, atmosphere, and overall experience.

This place is a gem for a delicious 5-star dining experience. My husband made a reservation in case the 4th of July was busy but we were glad to be one of two groups dining around 3pm. Greeted and seated almost immediately. We had a friendly and polite lady server (Chastity). We ordered garlic cheese bread, chai tea latte, matcha latte, filet mignon well done, braised rib, and ribeye medium well. While we waited for our food, we were looking at the art on the walls - a lot of interesting pieces from a local gallery. The teas and garlic cheese bread arrived around 5 minutes later. The cheese on the garlic bread was exceptionally good, very smooth. The teas were strong, and thankfully not super small like other places. The entrees arrived about 20 minutes after the bread which gave us time to catch up and talk. My husband's filet mignon was just to his liking, well done so zero pink and the mashed potatoes were done well. My braised rib was exactly like the waitress description of a very soft roast beef / beef brisket. My FIL's ribeye was to his liking and he finished it, which was rare. All in all an terrific choice for family lunch. Total was about $185, excluding a generous tip. We would come back for a date here :)

Upon sitting down, we struck up a conversation with a couple who were waiting on two other couples. They apparently have a standing "breakfast date" at Live Fire every Sunday morning. My wife ordered an omelet served with breakfast potatoes and artisan bread and I ordered a classic breakfast with scrambled eggs, potatoes and artisan bread. Breakfast was very good. What stood out to us was how fluffy the eggs were and how savory both the potatoes and artisan bread were. All we could think was how this feels like breakfast elevated to another level...not the usual breakfast fare. We will surely be back and perhaps try their lunch and dinner offerings the next time we're back.
