Noko was fantastic and our waiter Mitch was the man. Really appreciate his knowledge and attention to detail on our entire experience. It was our first time and we will definitely be coming back. My wife and I guy 7 different dishes and Mitch gifted us one he didn’t want us to miss out on. Best of the Best: Tuna Crispy Rice, Lobster Bao Buns, Korean Hot Wings, Brussels Good: Burrata - maybe a little too sweet with the jam. Not our favs: bone marrow, crab fried rice Overall this experience was awesome and the entire menu sounded fire. Great date night spot!

Party of dined on 11-19-24. Was beautiful and cozy atmosphere with friendly host staff and seated promptly. Ordered shortrib potstickers which were very overcooked and had to return. Reordered them a second time and the manager (Gabby) immediately came to table and said she would personally oversee the chef prepare this time. They came back perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. We ordered scallops and rotisserie chicken and both were delicious. Gabby comped us two glasses of bubbly and was very gracious. Definitely going to go back with a larger party next time. Well done and great experience.

My husband and I did a date night and had been wanting to try The Hampton Social. The ambience was very quaint, seating was intimate. Loved all the chairs and couches that served as seating, very classy. Ordered drinks, an appetizer, main entree and dessert, all were great! Service was good as well. Would definitely recommend!

We've been to Firebirds several times and have always had good service. The food is generally well done and portion sizes adequate. Our most recent visit was on Veteran's Day, as they offer a free meal for veterans and do not limit the menu options. There are a lot of restaurants that offer some form of appreciation to veterans and this is the second year that we have taken advantage of the invitation from Firebirds. What stands out to me the most is that they truly appreciate their veterans and go above and beyond to show it. Last year we even received a thank you card that many of the staff had signed. This year, the general manager came by our table to personally thank me for my service and stayed to chat for about five minutes. Additionally, there was an extra appetizer that the kitchen had made and he offered it to us first, as an additional show of thanks. As stated earlier, this was not our first visit to Firebirds, so when comparing this visit to the others, it continues to rank as one of the top restaurants for best overall service. There are plenty of good restaurants in town, but Firebirds will remain atop the list as one of our favorites, because they truly do go out of their way to make your visit as enjoyable as possible.

Sad this was our last meal here. Robert is an incredibly talented chef. Avery and Katy are lovely. The food and service were always spot on. We were lucky to have found such a special place. So sorry to know the doors are closing and we can’t come back.
