Extremely busy at lunchtime, you can have a 30 minute wait for food. Staff is friendly and restaurant is clean.

"It started off rocky because I couldn't place my pickup order through one of the services Google promoted (one being DoorDash) and no one seemed to know how to answer my concern, but we had a great food experience overall for our first visit. The place is clean and the food is scrumptious, fresh, flavorful, not too salty and very well priced (considering inflation, realistically) for generous portions. The customer service was good and the order was accurate. Very casualeatery to dine in I think they're mostly doing pick up and to go. We're definitely going back, so I highly recommend Iron Bowl."

"Coffee is amazing! Food is okay at least the items I’ve gotten haven’t really been anything special for their price points imo but they certainly weren’t terrible that I was too upset over it."

"Wonderful service from Angie! She was super nice and helpful, took care of us! However, the food is so and meets or misses. Crab and lobster Dip was good, crab Dip doesn't need lobster BTW! At least fair price. Onion rings like Red Robin, very good! Fried shrimp not great tasting, but edible. Great tasting hush puppies! No stupid whole grain pieces in there (eww) Lobster Bisque is terrible and tastes like wine and salt. no lobster, even in him, not edible. Wife ordered extra spicy steam seasoned shrimps, came out almost simply. Angie was quick to fix this for us! Crab legs were good, can't really screw it up. All you eat Oldbay season on any table that is not really Oldbay, or you cut it with something else plus a bucket of salt. Nice try there, but we know how real Oldbay tastes and costs. Total prices are usually appropriate for seafood. Portion sizes were simply acceptable. Owners pay attention!!!! Other low-class people with their screaming children who may not take care of your restaurant, but for us constantly fight for our $70 meal for 2 people with bundles of FLIES in your INDOOR dinning room is inevitable and disgusting, it made our dinning experience terrible!!! There were so many flies that they needed a pilot! I stopped counting to count 7 big well fed flies in our TV dining area next to the Tikibar. No excuse for this, and it means very bad sanitary practices. No other major restaurants to which we go in the area have this problem, including those with outdoor dining, where the doors are always opened and closed, so please do not use that as an excuse. Please clean up your act and get proper pest control protocols in place. Not the worst we've ever had, but not good either."

"Lunch on a sunny Saturday at Firebirds was very pleasant. We sat outside and was served by Isaiah who was exceptional. I have been to other Firebirds locations but the service at the Gainesville location was worth commenting about.
