What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
The Firepit Restaurant offers a promising dining experience with highlights like generous portions, flavorful steaks grilled on lava rock, and creative cocktails. While many praise the quality of food and friendly staff, some reviews mention issues with service speed, inconsistent steak preparation, and limited options for non-meat eaters. The ambiance is generally well-received, though accessibility can be a concern.
"Amazing place! Great service, really fresh cocktails and the food was quality.
Atmosphere was great, place was filled with people but enough space between other tables to not feel cramped.
Menu has plenty of variety, you get what you pay for.
Portion sizes are great and the food got better with each bite. Starters I would recommend are the garlic bread & balls of fire, enough to share and get you ready for the mains.
Will definitely be making a return soon!"

"Tucked away on one of the backstreets of Southport is this absolutely amazing place.
The decor is beautiful, well planned and layed out.
The staff were fantastic, lovely warm greeting, hugely professional and had good knowledge of the food they were serving.
The food was delicious
Starter: I had the black and blue mushrooms sauce was lovely and creamy perfectly balanced cheeses weren't over powering at all.
Main: I had the fillet steak hanging kebab and to be honest it could have fed us bothe the serving is that generous. Steak was lovely and tender, Very nicely seasoned. This came with salad, skin on fries and garlic flatbread.
Hubby to be had tempura king prawn tacos to start and the surf and turf which was 5oz fillet steak with half a lobster
Considering both plates were empty I can safely say his food was spot on too.
Sides we shared a cheesy garlic bread and some wild mushrooms and he had the grilled bone marrow to himself ( not my cup of tea)
All in all hugely impressed by this place food was absolutely amazing.
Highly recommended it"
