The fireside grill, judging from the name, paints a picture in your mind that you'll be sitting next to a crackling hot fireplace while awaiting a very refined savoury meal. The restaurant boasts character as a higher class eatery so one would expect that the dishes should not only be like home cooking but also be refined into something that is really astonishing. We stuck to the Dine Around Victoria menu, but entrées on their regular menu started around $20 and went up from there.
The restaurant has a very nice, warm atmosphere with gentle yellow candle lights and it does have at least two gas fireplaces that you can sit next to. The place was very clean and has been kept very well after being established for so many years. They also have a patio outside that is open during the summer. The service was above par and had it not been for a lack of explanation on some of the meals they would have had a perfect score. We also noted that our server took awhile to return with drinks after the entrées were served.
