Arizona Restaurant Week Feature: Firebirds Wood Fired Grill

You probably know how we feel about chains at Tucson Foodie. But, it’s hard not to like Firebirds Wood Fired Grill at La Encantada. With its large stone faced walls and animal mounts, walking into the restaurant is like walking into a millionaire’s mountain cabin. It’s dark, it’s intimate and they do what they do well.

For Arizona Restaurant Week Fall 2014 Firebirds is rolling out an ambitious menu that includes a number of soup and salad options for starters, four main courses, and three dessert choices. As a bonus, only Firebirds’ Tucson location is offering Banana Cream Pie.
