    Delicious food, great service. Garlic truffle bread was very good, along with the gnocchi, pizza, and Carmel pecan cheese cake.

    The food, wine & service were perfect! I love the menu, especially with entries including lots of sides/veggies. We shared the foie gras which was a perfect combination of savory & sweet. I had the 'deckle' and my brother the duck, both had ingredients we had never had before and were well paired. Also loved the 'house' Mount Veeder a perfect complement to the meal. The service was very professional and at the same time friendly and relaxed. This restaurant has been on my list for a long time and did not disappoint! Will definitely be back.

    The service is amazing! We were greeted warmly by several people. The menu is clearly written and there were enticing specials as well. Freshly baked rolls were brought to the table. Our appetizer was delicious - a special mushroom stuffed with crabmeat and cheese. We enjoyed the Kennett Square mushroom soup. We all had different entrees - lasagna, chicken carciofi with a substitution on the type of pasta, scallops from the appetizer list but served as an entree, and shrimp and crabmeat fusilli lunghi. They were all warm and tasty. We were offered complimentary cannoli for dessert. It’s important to note that it’s a BYOB establishment. Credit cards are accepted. We will definitely be back for lunch when we visit Longwood Gardens in two weeks!

    A dear friend & I enjoyed a nice lunch together, able to spend quite a bit of time ‘catching up’ with minimal interruptions. Our server Shannon was very nice & good. We wish they’d had at least one ‘flavored tea’ and a ‘fresh fruit plate’ and ‘sherbert’ on their menu. I will put a note out to them via their website & contact. Overall, very satisfied with today at Redfire.
