Firehouse was great for portions and service. Our waiter was excellent, friendly and ready with suggestions. The food was good too. The biscuits were good and better with butter. My ABCTS omelette was flavorful and had plenty of cheese but was light on avocado. The sweet roll was one of the biggest I’ve ever seen. My daughter’s breakfast burrito was indeed grande and she liked it too. My wife’s light breakfast fit the bill for her and was tasty too.
Atmosphere was quaint and well done with historical snippets and photos all around. Very good. I’d come back if we ever come back to Seaside.
Pros:
-the service was friendly and prompt
-the sausage gravy was flavorful and delicious
-the fried chicken was good (tender, not dry)
-the bacon is really thick! Yum
Cons:
-the biscuits are very bread-y. Not southern style flakey and buttery as I'm used to. Did not really taste like a biscuit to me. Would not order again.
-my potatoes were very oily and undercooked. But my boyfriend's potatoes were much better (not as oily, properly browned), so maybe that was just a fluke.
Overall, great service and some of the food was pretty good. I would go there again to try more things on the menu.
08/26/17: 4.5 out 5 - We came here for dinner after finishing the Hood to Coast 2017. A lot of places, as well as the Firehouse Grill, were pretty busy, but they accommodated us as quickly as possible.
Under the circumstances, I would say the staff for our visit was very friendly and understanding with everything going on. They were professional but personable enough that made us feel welcomed and not rushed.
The menu has a good variety to choose from. We ordered a few dishes to share a surf-n-turf meal. Great drink choices. The restaurant was clean and not so very loud which was great. It does share bathrooms with its next door sister restaurant Nonni's.
If we're ever in Seaside again, this would be a good place to come back to. Definitely, would suggest trying out Firehouse Grill once and to decide for yourself. Enjoy!
