Fireside

Very cute spot in Northwest Portland!I happened across the restaurant while walking around and the ambiance drew me in. It was pretty busy even on a weeknight but fortunately didn't wait long for a table on their patio. Patio was nice with heaters and greenery; the inside was really vibey too.They have a solid menu with great shareable small plates. I ended up getting the pretzel with cheese & Fireside Chicken Caesar. Both were tasty! Service was quick and staff was super friendly. I liked this spot!

We came for happy hour, we stayed long past for the drinks and...mac and cheese. Happy hour is a good deal, and you can find plenty of snacks. I say snacks, but I mean "food that will fill you up so there's no reason to think about dinner".And mac and cheese. Comes in this adorable little crock, and was hot as LAVA (beware), and was a really good portion, not tiny like *some other happy hour places where they cut the portion in half (or a third) and cut $2 off the price.Service was super friendly, even as we imbibed way more than we should - cocktails were EXCELLENT btw.

Tasty lunch on 23rd in Portland with family that were in town visiting from the East Coast. This is a cute, cozy spot and we had never tried it before. We decided to take a chance, I'm not gonna lie I was a bit nervous because they do not have a huge menu but they do everything right! We ordered Mac n cheese, crab cakes and a pretzel with cheese & grainy mustard to share. I enjoyed the French dip sando and hubby ordered the pork belly sando. Both were freaking delish! Everyone was happy with what they ordered and we will definitely be back.

Such a darling place! My son and I stopped in for a burger and the food was great. Lovely service. Loved the fireplaces and decor.

The service is welcoming and personable. When I treat myself to Fireside I know I am going to get the best service and food. Happy hour is amazing as well. I go early just because it can get busy! For good reason. I recommend the Mushroom pasta dish on their dinner menu. The atmosphere is joyful and cozy.

Fireside for a mid week happy hour is a great choice! Their staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the allergens in their food. Speaking of the food, the smash burger is a perfect evening meal, and they have gluten free buns to go with it. They put a small v/gf next to titles on the menu so it's easy to navigate. We sat outside in their mini patio area, it was actually very nice and the street noise which is right next to you wasn't bothersome at all.

On a warm/clear day this has the best ambiance in the area. It sits right on 23rd street and the top half of the walls are all windows which open upward and give an indoor-outdoor fusion to the space, you can hang your arm over the wall and feel like you're getting the liveliness of the neighborhood while enjoying a meal. I started with the orange creamsicle, maybe i just had different expectations but i didn't love it. So watery, i wanted it to have a thicker creamier texture. The food was okay, i got a burger and my friend had the vegetarian bowl. Her bowl was kind of slim pickings and the burger was cool. The setting is what sells this place, next time I'll just have a drink and maybe try a different plate.

We sat at the bar after having a mosey wander in the Nobhill neighborhood. We were early enough that the brunch menu was available and late enough that lunch was served, too. Our bartender was personable without being hovering, with good recs. I got the rose bubbles, the house salad, and Mac and Cheese at her recommendation. I also added crab cakes. All were pretty great, and I shared the food with my husband. The rose was nice and crisp. The salad had a really great light vinaigrette and a nice mix of lettuces and watermelon radish. The crab cake didn't have a lot of filler and was perhaps my favorite part of the meal, and I especially loved the really excellent dill tartar sauce. The Mac and cheese was served in a mini cauldron, and it was maybe the one miss of our impromptu lunch. It was cavatapi with white cheese and just felt a little one dimensional - I've had better. All in all, though, it was a lovely meal in a fun neighborhood, and i would happily come back.

Cute and trendy place on 23rd Street. Great area, fantastic margaritas. We split the French Dip. Really good. HH everyday 3:00-5:00.

Came in for dinner on a Friday night. Sat at the bar, with no wait. Small wait for an inside table. Bartender was really nice to begin, but she got increasing agitated with the number of orders coming in as the evening ran on - I don't blame her, but she could've used some help manning the bar.Ordered the French dip sandwich, was pretty spot on. Roasted carrots took 40 minutes, but eventually did show up. Sipped on a strawberry mule. Beer selection looked good.
