The Fireplace Restaurant

Some like it hot and none more so than The Fireplace’s owner and chef Jim Solomon. After 14 years of learning every facet of the restaurant industry, Solomon opened his dream restaurant, The Fireplace, in September of 2001. The Fireplace is a New England grill and barbeque, with an emphasis on wood-smoked and rotisserie dishes utilizing the freshest offerings of the New England region.

The food is wonderful and the staff is friendly and welcoming, as well as knowledgeable. So at The Fireplace, there is an abundance of essential positives: delicious food and fantastic staff. Also the ambiance is very pleasant, adding to the first rate dining experience! An added plus is that parking is not difficult. The one negative is that I do not live closer, but that's my problem!

The Fireplace is new to me but the historic menus items with modern twists are my idea of real comfort food. The ambiance and service add to the cozy romantic feel, which puts this restaurant at the top of my list.

Each and every trip to the Fireplace is the most enjoyable culinary experience. Jim and his crew have created a standard of excellence that is unparalleled. Everything on the menu is created beautifully and with great attention to detail. Superb wine list which is priced fairly coupled with a vast array of expertly made cocktails makes this place on fire! Salute!

The best brunch period! Jim and the staff turn out some of the finest breakfast treats around. What's great however is the fact that you can get here without the expensive valet car destroying animals and parking hassles. By the way the Bloody Marys are killer.
