Fireworks restaurant is a standalone building. It has a private parking lot and has multiple booths in the restaurant. There is seating internally and also patio seating perfect for summers. We were seated immediately at a booth. They were already looking a little busy for a Sunday afternoon lunch crowd. We ordered two beers. Hubby's was light and what sounded delightful to me a vanilla porter. Loved hubby's beer. Didn't like my own- it tasted too bitter and coffee like. I was expecting a smooth sweet-ish dark vanilla scented porter with chocolate tones as described.We both weren't feeling too hungry so I ordered crabcakes for my meal from the starters menu. And hubby ordered cheeseburger without buns. The crabcakes were not really what I was expecting- looked a little pitiful when it came out with a small bit of coleslaw and a couple of pieces of avocado. Tasted good really- but I also wasn't expecting corn in the crabcake. Overall- delicious but small portions even for a starter.Hubby got the cheeseburger without buns. Everything was fresh. But he wasn't feeling very well and so didn't finish it all.We then ordered a red velvet cheesecake for dessert The base was chocolate cookie. And the cheesecake was velvety smooth. I didn't care for the whip on top nor the extra icing on the cake. The cheesecake itself was delicious even though a tad too sweet for me. Overall, a great time. We will be back.

I'm really sad to say this, but Fireworks has definitely gone downhill. This used to be my husband's and my favorite date night restaurant. Unfortunately, our last experience was awful. We ordered the crab dip appetizer, and the chips it came with tasted like rancid oil. We asked for replacement tortilla chips, which also tasted off. For dinner, we ordered the same cut of prime rib, but received drastically different cuts, and my husband's was probably 50% fat. To cap it all off, my baked potato had another glob of that same rancid oil on the skin. It was really just a bummer all around. The beer is still good, thankfully, but I miss the days of the restaurant bustling and the food being spectacular.

We went here for Valentine's Day. I called a week ahead and was told I could call a few hours prior to be put on wait list. Then when I called day of they now said I needed to call 30 minutes before. When I called en route they then changed and said it was only in person. I then had an hour wait. We both wanted prime rib, sold out. So I ordered a steak with baked potato so did my wife. When food got delivered they were out of baked potatoes so I was out a side. Our waiter came to our table three times total but he appeared over worked. Just not a great experience though my steak was pretty good.

Great food and good selection of drinks. Chicken sandwich was great but the breast was a little smaller then expected. Look forward to try more food

My husband and I decided to try something new on my birthday and I'm so glad we did! When we first drove up the parking lot was full. We were seated quickly and drink orders were taken. It did take quite a while for someone to come take our order, but again they were very busy. Torry was our server for the evening, though it seemed that all the servers helped one another. Torry was very personable, funny, and a delight to speak with. The restaurant was a bit loud. BuI really enjoyed the dimmer lighting, open kitchen, and rustic decor of the dining area. For starters, I ordered the pretzel sticks with cheese and spicy mustard. The cheese was out of this world!! My husband ordered woodfired chips and salsa. The salsa was amazing. So many flavors coming at you with every bite! Main course, I ordered the filet mignon with a baked potato and mac & cheese. The sides were ok, everything was fresh and hot. But the steak.... Tender and delicious!! Cooked exactly how I ordered it. My husband ordered the Backdraft brisket with coleslaw and mashed potatoes. He said everything was good, it was for the price he felt like should have gotten more meat than he did. Finally, since it was my birthday the dessert was on the house! I ordered the Rocky Road cake. It was fabulously full of caramel and pecans and chocolate. We will be back!

We went early so there wasn't a wait. I'm always a fan of when restaurants bring the kids food fist or just drop if off fist and that is exactly what our waiter did! For my meal I ordered one of their pizzas, the crust could have used a few more minutes in the oven. Seasoning could be ramped up as well for more flavor

This place was really good! We came on a Saturday, daily early dinner time before it got crazy busy. It smelled amazing as soon as you walked in. We got the crab dip (highly recommended). We also tried the onion soup, which was super cheesy and delicious. They only do the French onion in a bowl though. I ordered the chimichuri chicken and it was literally a whole half of a chicken. The servings are huge. I definitely recommend the Mac and cheese out of all the sides. I had the cilantro rice and broccoli, but after trying the Mac and cheese, I wished I had gotten that.

It's perhaps not entirely fair to rate an establishment based on a group meal buffet, but nevertheless I feel compelled to do so. Our group, hosted in their private dining area was served a buffet that included tossed salad, sliced steak, a spicy chicken breast and grilled salmon, together with mashed potatoes and wild rice. The salad was just average, the steak was tough, gristly, and not seasoned well at all. The chicken and salmon were both overcooked and dry. The starches were average at best and the dessert tray had a distinctive look and taste of frozen, pre-packaged desserts (although I don't think they were). Service was spotty and several times we went looking for a server. The interior of Fireworks is old, dated, and in need of a refresh. Admittedly, this is a really bad review. But my experience matches this and I would not book a group dinner here again.

Called to make reservations and was told that they only accept reservations for parties of 5 and was told to call ahead for a reservation of 2 for a waitlist. Tried calling ahead and was told first come first serve.

Lots of items on the menu looked good. I had crab cake salad and crème brûlée. My daughter had cheese and macaroni and mashed potatoes. I wasn't wild about the crab cakes (didn't care for the seasoning in them) but they were cooked beautifully and the rest of my salad was really good. The cheese and Mac was delicious. The pistachio cherry crème brûlée was KILLER. Service was great. Love the ambiance. I moved out of town and hadn't eaten here in years. It was better than I remembered and I was a fan to begin with. Well done Fireworks! We'll be back!
