The Firehouse – American
The Firehouse invites guests into a world of smoky aromas and Southern hospitality, where the crunch of golden fried pickles and the creamy tang of pimento cheese dip set the stage for a soulful feast. Heaping platters of tender, slow-cooked pulled pork and thin-sliced meats take center stage, served alongside classic sides like crisp cole slaw and loaded Carolina tater skins that evoke the warmth of a communal family gathering.
