    Food was very good as was service. Staff remembered our dietary preferences that were noted when we made reservations. Made modifications to entrees to deal with our allergies, etc. Nice selection on entrees with several different fish dishes Small, comfortable room, only about 10 tables seating 40-45. People. Good place for special occasions ( we went on anniversary) Can be a bit difficult to find at night. We live nearby and have passed the Bistro numerous times, yet on dark night was hard to find. Suggest you make a scouting trip if possible. Only open Tues- Sat 5-9pm. We do plan to go back

    Firehouse Bistro was a great experience in every way. The house salad was very fresh, with a light and complementary dressing. The grilled salmon and sea bass were perfectly prepared with just the right seasonings, some delicious side vegetables, and savory rice. Our servers were cheerful and appropriately attentive. We look forward to another visit!

    We're lived less than 5 miles from the restaurant for over 25 years and just "discovered" it 2 weeks ago. We had a lovely dinner and enjoyed the service that Max our server treated us too. So much so that we had a celebratory dinner with 7 and chose Firehouse Bistro for last nights dinner. It didn't disappoint! Great atmosphere, lovely accommodations and very good food. Everyone enjoyed the occasion.

    Quaint quiet charming restaurant. Beautifully decorated in Woodside style. Loved the Sinatra inspired vibes playing and we could actually converse easily, personally, I hate a noisy restaurant. Food fresh and delicious. Very attentive service although handled by one server alone who does a great job.
