Reviews of FireWorks Restaurant (Restaurant)

Kelli L Kraft

Never disappoints. Excellent service and food.

Keith Frey

Very friendly staff and excellent service.

Rocky Bouma

My husband and I ate at FireWorks for our anniversary. It was very good! I recommend the Miso Salmon entree, it was perfectly cooked. We enjoyed the cheesecake for dessert, too. The dishes are creative and the staff was very friendly!

Jenni Hunt

The food and experience here were wonderful and refreshing

Agris Taurins

And it's a weak three stars at best. Maybe it stems from higher expectations for the price-point, but everything was just "eh" at best. For lunch, I ordered a 12oz prime rib with roasted potatoes and onions soup to start. First off, the soup was just plain bland. Especially considering it was an upsell price, I was expecting a lot better. The smoked prime rib was, well, I wouldn't say bland but certainly nothing memorable. Same could be said for the roasted potatoes. Service, cleanliness, etc were all fine, no complaints.

Our waiter, Jordan, was amazing! Very attentive to taking good care of us. Food very good. Atmosphere a little loud for easy conversation, but ok.

Delicious food and awesome service :)

Henry Nelson

service is awful food was great. don’t expect to make a reservation that means anything. made a reservation and got here before a party of the same size, and got seated after. hostesses don’t care about the customers, managers only care about themselves. will not ever go back, used to be the place i went every year for my birthday. awful.

kent klassen

Great atmosphere, service and food like always would recommend

Ken E

Seated in the covered patio area thing, which was super loud and obnoxious. Almost impossible to speak with my fiance. Brisket was ok but small portion, especially the broccoli side.

Gary From the vault

Never asked for my choice of sides, just gave me random sides I never would eat. First time service has been bad, foods always great though.

Jim Tonjum

Pretzel appentizer hard. Over baked. Ceasar salad had rye croutons and limp sort of romaine lettuce. Order the rib eye. Got a gray tough. Piece of not so prime rib. Replace rib eye with undercooked boneless piece of meat WOW!

Christopher Buckhahn

Took someone here for a first date this past Sunday, July 22, and I know that laid back casual atmosphere and upscale eats certainly helped me to impress her. I also love the option to sample a couple of the micro brews before you make a decision, keeps you from ordering something that you won't like saving you money. Over all a lunch for 2 with a drink was very reasonable and the food was great! ....and yes, I got the second date!

Mary Spurlock

Good service and good food!

Sue Dolsky

Mac n cheese ( creamy and cheezy), brisket ( smoky and meaty), smashed potatoes hubby enjoyed. I had steak( medium) salad, which has roasted potatoes, portobello mushrooms, big rings of red onions and ? roasted tomatoes. Just the right amount of salad dressing. Rapid service but not rushed. Friendly staff who anticipate your needs. Great experience every time!!

Chris Snurr

Great food! And you can tell they put the same amount of care into their sides as well as the entrees. Always great service as well because the staff works as a team.

K M

Dinner was good and the atmosphere was great. Good for a casual date night.

Stephanie Poole

It was mine and my boyfriends two year anniversary (03/25/2019). We decided to give it a try because we had driven by it a time or two and heard that is was a nice classy place to eat. We both had never been here and wanted something new and classy for our anniversary. The food was extremely delicious. The service was not a very pleasant experience. The waitress acted like we were a burden on her. She was very short with us. Would ask if we were ready to order and when we said we weren't just kind of rolled her eyes and walked away. That happened twice so we felt rushed to order our food. She never came to check on us after our food arrived. She left without saying im leaving for the night so and so is going to take over. This waiter came over after we were half way through our meal and asked if he could take any plates. He was a bit more friendly but he didn't say I'm so and so i will be your waiter. I didn't feel like we were important enough to check on or inform us of who we needed to ask if we needed something. I really enjoyed the food and really wanted to come back but i won't unless i know that we are going to get better service. I really expected the service to be exceptional. Everything else was perfect.

mark kurmel

excellent food and wait staff was just great

Jeff Nun

This is one of the best restaurants in Lincoln. If you are someday buried without ever having tasted their Firecracker egg rolls, yours was a Life unfulfilled.

Andrew Lepper

Excellent food! Everything was delicious when I went on my birthday. My brother and his family enjoy this place frequently. 4 stars as service was lightly lacking. I was assured by my brother it wasn't the norm but it's what I got.

Michelle Rule

14.00 dollars for a prime rib sandwich almost paper thin. The Broccoli was under cooked. Service not bad, but on the way the roasted chicken at a other table looked great.

Marc Carofano III

Great atmosphere great wait staff get your food out quick however I wasn't completely and totally impressed by the food I had gotten the half rack of ribs yesterday or fall off the bone but then have the best flavor in the world I personally prefer a very hearty Rich flavorful rib I've had ribs from across the u.s. by far the best ribs I've ever had were down in Texas but these are kind of fell short of the Mark I was expecting for a Steakhouse that specializes in meats. The brisket had good flavor but was overly fatty in it overpowered the brisket and there was too much fat for the portion of brisket that was served

Deb Menzter

We went there june 22 for our anniversary at 6pm. We had excellent service. Our server was 2248 milk dud. I had the club sandwich fries my husband had the burger with yt? He quac on it. house salad flatbread appetizer and the cheese cake. All was excellent. Foof was at proper temp. Fast service clean friendly staff.

Jason Gove

Amazing food. Great and friendly service. Fast and fresh hot food. One of my favorite places to eat. Prices arent to bad either.

kelp

Spectacular! My father loves the philly cheesesteak.. I particularly enjoy the BBQ chicken pizza. Care is put into the food and it shows! Service is quick and friendly, and not so much that the waiter is clingy. Fantastic place and ambiance.

Matt Nelson

Bad experience. Waited 45 minutes on a reservation. Slow and inaccurate service. Grr.

Emma Vacek

Went here for my birthday dinner and it was fantastic

Allison Wetig

Best lettuce wraps I’ve ever had. Service is always great. Very well run restaurant. The all seasons patio is cool too.

jodi shely

Service and Food was excellent. Cajun chicken was delightful!

Stephanie Caudy

Went on a saturday night around 730 pm. There was no wait but this may have been due to the huskers home game that was happening. The restaurant was literally dead. The server was polite and efficient. The food was very good and ready quickly. I feel the prices were fair. Ambience is nice. Overall a semi classy yet casual experience. I enjoyed the meal despite being on a "he is definitely not my person" uncomfortable blind date.

Dale Rezac

good food, service at a reasonable price

Dan Klein Jr

Creative dishes. Often something unique. Today was Carrot Jalapeno Bisque Soup. Good stuff. One of my favorites is the Veggie Pizza. Terrific crust. Great service.

Tammy Joyce Woodring

Very nice atmosphere. Servers are very friendly.

Tina Klahn

Party of 4, service was slow for a Sunday evening. Appetizer came out quickly and was hot. Three of the four meals were good, the fourth ordered a steak and wasn't warm. The Manager offered to have it remade and was very good, however, the rest of us had already finished. The Manager did take care of his meal and beverage. We'll have to try again another night.

Sarah L

First visit, went on a Thursday night and was seated in a small amount of time. The selection of food was great and the range of pricing was awesome. My meal was delicious but the lemon cheesecake was to die for!!

J H

Good food, service is usually pretty good as well, can't really go wrong with this place. Highly recommend the Carrot Jalapeno bisque but I believe it's only available on the weekends.

David Isaacson

Great meeting space. Wonderful service and delicious food

Miranda Pernicek

Great menu and atmosphere

Richard Westling

Good food, nice setting. I had blackened chicken it was spicy like it should be.

Internet Infamy

I liked the atmosphere but the food was really boring. Our appetizer said in the description it was spicy...wasn't at all. Everything else was just bland. The steak I got was well cooked though. That was pretty much the best thing.

russell bartholow

Yellow Tail Tuna was raw. The lemon was old. Cole slaw was shaved onions with no dressing. Terrible! Sad. Fireworks use to be yummy!

Annetta Milhon

Food is always good, staff are polite and friendly.

Glenda Krums

Best veggie pizza I ate in a long time!

R Tyler McClymont

The atmosphere was great and the food was excellent. They have a limited gluten-free menu with some delicious choices. My wife enjoyed their drink selection. The steak was pretty damn good. We stopped at this place on our way to somewhere else.

Janie Knowlton

Nice, friendly,rellaxing atmosphere with good food

Rebecca Frankenstein

great food, great service, nice atmosphere

Melissa Ann McDermott

My boyfriend and I went here for his birthday. We loved the atmosphere! Our server was friendly and attentive. We started with pretzels and received three large soft pretzels with two dipping sauces. He had prime rib, French fries, and prime rib vegetable soup. He is not a veggie guy but ate all the soup and loved his prime rib. I had amazing brisket, mashed potatoes and broccoli. I especially loved that the broccoli was still firm and had good seasoning. We received a free Cola cake for his birthday and it was unbelievably moist and tender. We will be back!

John Stubblefield

Had simple fare, carnitas tacos, and the chef's personal touch made them fantastic! Best pork tacos I have ever had. The bartender was very attentive and gave a good pout. I am here from GA working for about 3 weeks and I will definitely be back while I am here.

Shelby Ashton

Service was nice but the meal seemed a bit overpriced for what was received.

Jim Schulz

ykk one

Wonderful spicy bbq ribs. Good waitstaff.

Buford T. Justice

Good food. Good wine too.

Kendra F

It was our first experience eating here tonight. Our drinks and appetizer came out immediately and were good. Our dinner ticket was lost in the kitchen, but both the server and manager were very sincere and apologetic and got everything fixed immediately. Dinner ended up being very good and dessert was even better! We will definitely be back

Nancy Rahe

Good food good server good atmosphere.

pandabear1238

Try the Pizza Margherita is fantastic! Crisp garlic flavored crust with fresh tomatoes and basil. Delish!!

David Redding

Great brisket sandwich ! But the fries were cold ! I'd eat there again !

Todd Crowley

French onion soup was weak flavored. Wedge salad small. Fillet was over cooked. Service was above average.

Jay Bahm

Jake Schuette

First time, will be back again. Great food and service

Gail Coil

Had a WONDERFUL evening with friends celebrating birthdays, food EXCELLENT, atmosphere casual, relaxing, service OUTSTANDING. Would recommend for couples enjoying intimate meal as well as groups wanting to visit and actually hear each other across the table ... and they did honor the free dessert for birthdays, and there were three birthdays in our group, 6 in our group and more than enough to share, HIGHLY recommend the black forest cheese cake and the rockey road dessert, chocolate cake good too. Thank you Fireworks for a Celebration that will be fondly remembered.

Karl Seamster

Server seemed kind of new. Prime rib was alright. Wasnt anything I would need to come back to.

Mike Gielb

Leaving a review,as Fireworks is a much better option than most other places in the area. So many food options that it’s easy to pick something healthy. Service is very good too. Plenty of good local beer choices.

Kenneth Calnan

Great restaurant! They cook over a wood fire and they don't mess around. The smell is in the air. Reminds me of the smell of chimney smoke in winter or when you go camping. They have a full bar and even brew their own beers. Very cozy and the menu is great! You can get steaks or prime rib, rotisserie chicken. They have some Mexican and Asian style food. Soups, burgers, and sandwiches. Lots to choose from. A little expensive but very delicious!

Mandy Sipes

Went there for dinner with the fam. Had a great server...Allison. Service by all staff was top notch. The specials were DELICIOUS! Will be returning regularly.

Stuart Hill

Excellent customer service and delicious food!

Katie McCabe

Attended a private party there. The restaurant provided a buffet of several meat items, fresh fruit and vegetables and beverages.

Chelsea Pontious

The acoustics where we were seated made it difficult to hear one another at the table - sound just seems to bounce off the floor & ceiling & walls to a crazy degree. Enjoyed the food. Cola cake was bomb. Staff was friendly.

Jeff Brown

Great food and friendly service

Jeff Stewart

Definitely impressed. Great food. They were on top of everything. They definitely took great care of us.

Devin Edds

Very good food. A little busy & they ran out of prime rib. Our service was pretty slow but overall we enjoyed it.

Erica Moore

Great food as well as atmosphere and the waiter was very courteous and attentive..clean restrooms and tables too!

Robyn Finkner

Fresh and good! Enjoyed by our whole family! They were more than willing to help with one in our group that did have to be careful with her dietary needs.

Colleen Konder

Good food and good waitress service.

Thane Moore

Excellent meal, good service, reasonable prices! Nice atmosphere!

Cory Peters

Great service, very nice comfortable upscale environment. I love the "Midnight Special" pizza available at anytime! This is a great place to take a date or special someone especially if it is a special occasion.

josh kallsen

Such a great place. Food is top notch. My wife loves the cocktails.

Chris Thiesfeld-Carranza

It's nice but can be loud. The bar is deafening if full, and with TVs showing sports all the time makes it impossible for real conversation. A bit annoying they dont take reservations for less than 5, but you can "call ahead". May or may not help, but we got seated right away. Korean lettuce wraps are great, but I would love a vegetarian option, like Blue Orchid. I had the flatbread and it was pretty bare bones. $0.99 for each add-on after sauce (white) and cheese. All veggies. I added corn and a sprinkle of jalapeno. Couldve done with twice as much of both of them! Actually pretty sparse. Has framework to be delicious, tho. And we loved the Pepsi cake dessert. Always get it. For our foursome, 1 order is not enough and 2 is too much so we just soldier through. I would rank 3.5 stars but it wont let me! Going to 4 cause prob that level for local restaurants.

Dawn Sayer

In my opinion food is mediocre with a large price tag. I have yet to have something here that was fantastic. I do like their side salad, but other than that it's not worth the price.

Candice Richardson

Food and service was excellent.

Lynn Trimble

A very nice place. The food was very good and the atmosphere was nice. Our waiter was very professional.

Brandon Anderson

Good food. Great service. Little pricey for my normal, but was worth it.

Maurice Gibson

Food was nasty. Go else were. Noone was there but me my wife and a whole lot of flies. Manger still charged for my wife and daughter food cause noone else was there. Go elsewhere people

Salvador Armendariz

Food tastes good and had decent portions. Could use more vegetarian options. The service was kinda slow though. Even though it wasn't busy.

Mike Mueller

Excellent food at good prices. Nice ambiance.

Henry Wright

Great food and friendly staff

Jeffery Mussmann

This place has a large variety of meals. I have not had a bad experience here yet. They have nice patio area too.

Mike Penne

Good food! Good drinks

Shelby Jay

I ordered the beef brisket, mashed potatoes and mac & cheese. Beef brisket had no flavor and neither did the mash potatoes. Mac and cheese was only thing that had flavor. Management was on top of it and asked if wanted to get a different order. Just disappointed in the food flavor.

A Woods

Haven't had food this good in years. Came in with a party of 5 for a birthday, everyone enjoyed their meal. That is a first. Servers were prompt and courteous, prices are on point. Truly, this is one of the best restaurants in Lincoln.

Sue Morrissey

We live several blocks from Fireworks and after home games love to go there for dinner

WB M

Got take out. I think they forgot about our order or had a slow kitchen that night. There was a little wait after I got there. Food was worth the wait. Entire family enjoyed their meal. I would go back.

Wave Marcsisak

Food was excellent atmosphere great and good prices

Ed Nielson

Fireworks is a nice restaurant to dine at. Food is pretty good and the brews are always good as well. The Mango IPA is worth trying if you're an IPA fan. Weekday nights don't seem real busy at least before 7:00 pm.

Stephanie Trumblee

Great atmosphere. Good service. Great food. Good place for a nice date.

Jake Meyer

Food was sub-par and very over priced. 3 members of our party have said they are feeling ill and have minor cases of food poisoning from the dinner. Restaurant needs to focus on perfecting a smaller amount of dishes instead of carelessly throwing together nearly 3 pages of entrees.

Amanda Grubbs

Possibly the most punctual service I have received at a restaurant. Food was amazing.

Melissa Topil

My daughter loves the desert with her kids meal and I have never had a bad meal here!
