In Short – Literally steps from the sand, DJ-spun beats make the beach scene feel more upscale at this rooftop sun deck dotted with double-wide lounge chairs, bright umbrellas and views of sunbathers on the beach below. Downstairs, two bars coexist with more traditional seating in the restaurant , where separate breakfast and "all day" menus focus on clean California and Baja dishes like grilled salmon, fish tacos, ahi burgers and popular local brew Firehouse Ale.

Delicious Food; Great Value; Good Service

by maest35

OK, we dined here for brunch on our final day in San Diego. The breakfast options were very delicious--the pecan french toast changed my life, pancakes were light and fluffy, biscuits were exceptional, steak hash was phenomenal. The lunch was really good too: tasty burgers and the chicken and brie sandwich was killer. I loved the white pinot noir - the overall wine list rocked! I promise to return here. 2 hours of free parking!

  • Pros: Great Menu, Fab Service
  • Cons: Can't think of any

Go somewhere else

by elginmate

This location has had over 5 different owners since I lived in San Diego and this one will soon be joining the long line of failures if they treat customers the way they do.

If you're at the beach you looking to relax and San Diego is the best place in California to do that. The Firehouse is not the place you want to go for a hassle free drink or dinner.

We had 8 in our party when we showed up. The hostess asked if we would be dining. Since it was mid day we were just looking for a place to enjoy some drinks. She told us to go upstairs and find a table. Once we got upstairs and sat down the waiter started to give us menus. After informing him that we were not eating he said you need to leave now then basically stood over the whole party till we got up. Wow, what a great attitude. Where am I, downtown LA.

If you want a place that has a great view and a relaxing atmosphere there are plenty more just a few steps away. Ale House is across the street, a half block away is Nicks (A great patio atmosphere). Take it from someone that has lived in the area; anywhere else you go will be better than this.

  • Pros: Good View
  • Cons: Everything else

Worst Service in PB. Don't Waste your Money!

by Mofosta601

I took my wife here for her birthday June 27, 2009 @ 1:00 pm. We waited an hour for one drink and never received our food. We told an manager and received no apology. I am embarrassed they call them selves a firehouse . I am a Captain for the fire department and we don't treat people like that.
