Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Crossroads / Freight District / Boulevard

The food and service were both excellent. We were seated immediately even with the holiday crowd. The octopus potato salad was different and very tasty! Not something you normally see on menus so we had to give it a try. The pasta trio with salad and desert was a great value. The salad was huge and the pasta choices were excellent. My husband had eggplant Parmesan and it was vey good also. Lidia’s does not disappoint and was a perfect choice for a holiday dinner with friends!

Had an early lunch there mid-week; it was fairly quiet; seated by the fireplace was great! Server was very helpful and attentive. I had the grilled brie, pear, and bacon sandwich. It was excellent. We were not rushed, and had a very enjoyable meal.

Fabulous experience! Gorgeous this time of year!. Server went out of her way to accommodate. Food was excellent. Valet service was great. Only complaint is that they are limiting their menu on the weekends because it gets so busy when people are in town for the games, so they didn’t have some of my favorites available.
