"I had the scallop salad which was great and our waitress was very nice but both my father's and sister's meals came out cold. They also sat us in the front of the bar so we were watching people check in to their room as we ate - not an ideal setting."

"Always enjoy the food and the ambiance at Fire & Sage - the menu's savory and has enough variety to satisfy my various cravings and the food is always tasty. The service is wonderful warm and the food comes out of the kitchen with amazing rapidity."

"Had small office group, and really enjoyed it. Food is always good-great here...service was very, very good. Overall, everyone in our party enjoyed the dining experience. I have been there several times, but it was new for most of the group."

"Went here for a small business lunch (4 of us). The food was fantastic and we were all able to hear each other well, as there was little background noise. The only downside was that it took a very long time for us to get our bill. As we are in DC, I like to assume that restaurants would be quick with these steps, as they should know that folks need to get back to their offices. Aside from the slow service toward the end and the fact that I never actually got the iced tea I ordered (we were not charged for it), this was a great spot."

"We spent most of the evening searching for our waiter. No, wait, we didn't have to search for him, he was at the table right next to us chatting with his friends...and not bothering to check in with us or look our way to see if we needed anything. Additionally, the menu was very limited and the food marginal."

"It took several minutes for a server to come to our table, and then one finally did, but then another server came up after her and told us he'd be our server. Our second server did a great job, but I was very disappointed in the food. We shared some wine and the crab and artichoke dip, and we both found the dip to be under seasoned and lacking in flavor. It pretty much just tasted like crab and cream sauce without any added flavored or seasoning. The wine list was great though, and very reasonable priced."

"Overall, I was not pleased with the service. After making a reservation on Open Table, we still had to wait 20 minutes. On top of that, the host suggested we go to the bar and then completely forgot about us. Only after we inquired with him again, did we get seated."

"The service was horrible. Our server rarely stopped to check on us and we had to wait about 15 minutes after finishing, to get our check. The food was not the best of quality, given the prices charged."

"Nice atmosphere, food was great, service was exceptional. We have two small kids and they opened a closed section just for us. Staff was very nice and couldn't have been any more pleasing to the kids and us. Totally would recommend it."

"I really enjoyed Fire & Sage. The food was very good and the atmosphere was upbeat and inviting. I had their signature chicken dish and it was amazing. I can't wait to eat there again."

"several large parties on a Friday night made it difficult for a party of two to hear each other - we asked to be moved and were put in a separate room away from the restaurant. this was a real put off. the food was okay but risotto with sweet potatoe was too sweet as well the citrus sauce wih the scallops was far too sweet and ruined teh herb risotto."

"Very interesting & eclectic menu. I got the wild mushroom pizza which could easily have been shared with another. I could have eaten multiple side dishes. My colleague got the mac and cheese side dish which was fantastic and we talked another into getting the goat cheese mashed potatos so we could all try them.
I would definitely return."

"Went with a group of friends on Valentine's Day. We got there a little later than a normal dinner time, so we didn't sit down until about 8:45. It was fairly empty to my surprise (because Open Table's availability was so limited). Anyway, our server was awesome. From helping us pick a wine (actually choosing - we told him to surprise us after narrowing it down) to giving free macaroons for the whole table (3 each!) for dessert. Maybe he felt bad for the single ladies with no dates, but we were not sad at all. :) Anyway, I got the scallops risotto which was quite tasty. The scallops were excellent and the risotto was pretty good. We got the crab dip as an app and that was pretty good as well. I'd recommend trying it!"

"Three of us enjoyed lunch in the quiet, nicely decorated restaurant just inside the Metro Center Marriott on a Friday at 1:30. Good turkey burger, crab cake sliders, lentil veggie soup and Ceasar salad with steak. Attentive, polite service and calm ambience allowed for long conversations with our out-of-town guest. We will return to Fire and Sage for lunch or dinner."

"Our server Julie was very friendly and had great customer service skills. She waited on our table of 6 people and was accomodating with extra dishes and cutlery so that we could eat our friend's birthday cake."

"Great place for a sandwich or casual meal, have been several times, the food is always good and the service friendly. They have some good happy hour deals. I have found this place to be much better than many hotel restruarants."
