Wonderful food, carefully prepared. This is my first-time message on this board. My wife and I had lunch at the Fireplace Restaurant in Brookline (corner of Beacon and Washington). The lunch was terrific. The conch chowder was some of the best chowder I'd evereaten -- creamy but not too thick, with a nice bacon and herb flavor. The fig-goat

cheese salad, the deep-fried gnocchi with that fresh tomato and pepper

sauce -- it was all great. The way they used herbs was really

special, and I liked the light hand with the salt (most places continue

to oversalt everything). The staff was really nice as well; our

waitress, a blonde young woman, was friendly and hard working. It got crowded.

We'll definitely go again.

Good food, good service. Nice fireplace. I have to say. Both times I've been here I've had positive experiences. Food is usualy good, so is the service. Servers even joke playfuly and recomend items, something you cant say anymore about many Boston restaurants. With Dalias across the street, the competition is strong but this place holds up well. Keep up the good work!

No wonder this restaurant is a smashing success!! Hands down- best customer service around.. Top notch customer service- the other reviews speak for themselves on this outstanding restaurant's food, ambience etc so I won't waste space on that. I go out to eat regulary for work functions in the NYC area and am constantly surprised/disappointed by customer service in restaurants. My own memory was when I needed help on my brother's birthday and the owner of this restaurant made sure everything was taken care of. Not all places understand or take the time to go that extra step, I would suggest anyone to go here if you're looking for a wonderful meal, experience and I bet you'll book your next reservation before you've finished dessert.

Great Gluten Intolerance Awareness/ Wonderful Food. My husband and I came here for a dinner because it was listed as a local restaurant that had gluten free options on their menu. Being a celiac, I have to be weary of every place I eat and I was overly impressed with the knowledge of the waitstaff and their care in making sure my dinner remained uncontaminated by gluten

The food was incredible! We will definitely go back!

Tasty food, horrible experiences. This place has one of the greatest kitchens in Boston. However, the service and staff leave much to be desired. Our party of three was dismissed from the dining room after being escorted to the table and asking for just drinks and desserts. We would have not minded, but for the rude tone of the hostess and the fact that there only six people in the restaurant. Sadly, we choose to not go there again.
