    Food is far too expensive for the quality. Limited sides come with the entree- soup or salad. Steaks were OK, nothing to write home about. Save a ton of money and seek another restaurant.

    Our server Jaycee was excellent. Our drinks were mixed to perfection. My filet mignon was superb and husband's baseball steak fantastic, as always. Table mates had walleye which they said was very delicious. You can count on consistency from beginning to end at The Fireside. Love it!

    The service was fast and friendly. My steak was done just the way I ordered and tasted great. My wife had a chicken pasta dish and really liked it.
