FIREBIRDS WOOD FIRED GRILL – Restaurant

At The Strand across from St. John's Town Center in Jacksonville, Firebirds Wood Fired Grill runs a scratch kitchen built around hand-cut, 21-day-aged steaks, butchered in house and finished over hickory, oak or pecan wood. The bacon-wrapped filet arrives topped with bleu cheese sauce and port mushrooms, while ribeye and filet mignon anchor a menu that hand-fillets seafood. Lobster spinach queso and chicken tortilla soup open the meal before the wood grill takes over. Guests return for FIREBAR happy hour on the patio, where bar bites and drink specials draw a steady after-work crowd. Smart casual, upscale without the fuss.
