The Birmingham, Alabama location of Firebirds |
Charlotte-based Firebirds Wood Fired Grill plans to open its first Georgia location next year on Old Milton Parkway at the new Atwater development, across the street from Avalon. Roots in Alpharetta predicted this back in April, and the deal is finally in place. According to the restaurant's website, "Firebirds Wood Fired Grill serves classic American cuisine infused with bold flavors, fresh herbs and spices." Sources say there may be additional Firebirds locations in the works in metro Atlanta. Firebirds, which was named a 2014 "Breakout Brand" by Nation's Restaurant News, has about 40 locations in 14 states.

Firebird's is in the Houston's/Ted's Montana Grill vein -- lotsa wood, leather, and basics. The one in South Charlotte does bang up biz and for awhile 2003-06ish was pretty good. But the prep just kept getting more haphazard and value was never really there has it is all such simple comfort food, so it fell off my rotation. I can see why they picked that spot near Avalon though -- their demo to a T.
The new Total Wine and More opened in Brookhaven last Thursday (October 29). It looks like Steinmart is not too far behind.
Yea but with no liquor it's off my list of places to visit.
