Fantastic evening at Ironwood as usual. Fried green tomatoes were snappy and luscious with the burrata, frisée and pickled onions. Mains were the filet special with blue cheese mashies and chicken schnitzel (never a wrong choice). Tart starter drink with the Ginbo and finished with the Lion Tamer Cab. Enclosed patio heaters going full force, cozy on the patio and fantastic service Ironwood is always on our list - put it on yours.

We got there shortly after it opened in the afternoon. We were shocked how slow it was, but it shortly filled up as it got closer to 6. The service and food were great! We had a great time celebrating the holidays there with family.

My family and I celebrated Christmas Eve at Ironwood. We had a beautiful evening! Our meal was delicious. The surf and turf prawns were huge! The focaccia bread was a hit. The on the wagon mocktail was a special treat! The oysters fresh and tasty. Also, we enjoyed the halibut, salmon, and wedge salad. They accommodated gluten free. Our server was awesome. I'm sorry I didn't catch her name . It was a lovely night for us!
