Fireside Burien

I've been in there two or three times with my husband and each and every time the food has been made horribly! Fish and chips overcooked and then in denial by the chef. I will say that the young lady working as a server really tried and was very apologetic and offered some good ideas for replacements. I can't think of her name but I believe it begins with the letter A.

I left hungry and very worried. Dine at risk.My chicken pot pie was sour, it had a sour flavor in it, and when I would talk to my server about it they refused to offer an explanation or find out how my chicken pot pie came to be sour. My server treated me like I was crazy or making things up and took it from the table and off my tab and just didn't want to talk about it any more. It was nice to see it removed from tab, but money was no longer the issue, food safety was, and he just dismissed any follow up questions about it.Are they pre-making meals and leaving them in a fridge for too long? Is their fridge not keeping food cold anymore? Do they have sous chefs going rogue and squirting lime juice into pot pies? What the heck is going on in that place? With the way they treated me and froze me out the door, I am only left to wonder.There are so many great places to dine in Burien, I am happy to strike this from my option list forever.

My cousin and I were looking for a place not too far from my hotel and also having to do so quickly with a sweet crying baby in the car. Lol Found this place from the Yelp/reviews. Seemed like a popular place for the locals. Ordered the following... Grilled Salmon SaladBristol Bay wild salmon, avocado, tomato, cucumber, red onion, shredded carrot, & creamy green goddess dressing.Famous French Onion SoupBaked, gruyere cheese, parmesan croutons, & green onions.Prime Rib Dinner(Available on Wednesday only) chose sides broccolini and loaded baked potato Everything was delicious! I enjoyed trying everything! The onion soup was so good and filling that I could have just had that for dinner. Lots of food left over and definitely shareable.

After a 12 hour shift my companion and myself searched for and drove to the nearest possible food haven that happened to be Fireside. I called ahead because it was Christmas Eve. They were open and ready to welcome us in. We arrived and were sat very quickly. At a cozy table near the fire. Upon looking around there was a definite vibe. Decorative heads of dear, The singing bass staple, there was even a twinkling small tree. Val appeared in an instant to serve us and what a wonder she was. We Ordered 2 apps and 2 entrees as well as the key lime pie. I can't report a bad combination or mal-flavored dish. Everything was fresh, seasoned and made with love. Thank you Fireside. You felt like home!

We stopped in right after getting into town and picking up our rental, and they happily accommodated us with a hot meal and a cold beer. It's a nice space! The fireplace indoors is certainly cozy and sports a bit of an old-fashioned vibe by way of the taxidermy heads mounted on the wall above. Booths are nice and roomy and well-maintained. Offerings are straightforward but tasty. The pretzel is certainly a highlight, served with beer cheese kept hot via a little candle beneath.We didn't try much food to know well enough how it all ranks, but what we had was nice and comforting after a long day of travel. Also, many thanks to Skip, our server. What a delight.

My sister and i stopped in for lunch today and had the nicest time. Everything from the ambiance to service was perfect. Our bartender Delaney B was very nice. Food was also super delicious and true hidden gem !

The space is trendy, romantic, & laid back - easy to get to in terms of being central to Burien downtown. Came here for happy hour & had a nice time. The artichoke dip is good & wine was tasty. The server was friendly & service was attentive. I hope to come back to try more of their dishes.

Very cool interior... we had outstanding service. Saturday evening and found easy street parking. Nice bar menu - nice salads - love any place that has tater tots!! Solid place with a cool vibe ... we will try it again .

Ive been here four times and each time it has gotten worse. It started out as a possible regular spot for fried american food, but quickly devolved into a mediocre attempt at that. The burgers you see in the review pictures is not what I experienced a couple months ago. The burgers are thinner than mcd and don't reach the edges of the bun (I did not order a smash burger, but I received one... and I hate smash burgers). The chicken sandwiches, tots, and wings are all slightly missing the mark (cook them for a minute or so longer so they get golden brown instead of a pale tan). Each time I've gone here has been months apart and each time I think about it my brain wonders if it has gotten any better. The food is a no and the drinks are a maybe.Also, they don't keep a small stock of standard items not on the menu. Not even mushrooms for a burger.To the older bartender gentleman, you strive for a great atmosphere and you achieve that by being you. You give off a great aura, you're there and attentive, but not overbearing. Plus your quips are entertaining. Thank you.To the older bald/buzzed guy that sits at a corner of the place (corner of the bar, corner of the building, corner of the stairs, etc).. stop lurking. Either introduce yourself or stop staring at people, it's creepy. If you have time to lean then you have time to clean, go assist your staff with menial tasks! You tried to sell me a drink once then when I turned that down because of my allergy you stopped dead in your tracks, turned around and walked away (leaving it to the gentleman above) only to return at the corner of the bar a couple minutes later.For the atmosphere, add some light to the up above area. It's so dark up there! This isn't a log cabin where you only have a fireplace at night.

I was very disappointed, I've been to this restaurant before and enjoyed my meal however, I ordered the Salisbury steak to go with a baked potato and salad. When I got to my destination to eat, the baked potato was bare and there was two Salsberry steaks in the container. The salad was separate but was given no napkins or cutlery so I had to swing by the dollar store to get some plasticware, which I'm grateful was super close. I gave 2 stars as the salad and patties were good but potato was dry. Paid $27 for this meal and I'm not satisfied with the missing items and the bland potato. I'm not gonna say I won't go there again, but ordering to go was a very disappointing experience.
