Crema's Take

“Fire Up Grill is a riverside spot that nails the vibe of a casual gathering place, where fresh, flavorful food like standout chilaquiles pairs beautifully with creative specialty drinks—think iced horchata lattes that are as thoughtfully crafted as they are Instagram-worthy. The mostly outdoor seating and attentive service make it ideal for lingering over brunch or happy hour with friends, and guests consistently rave about the energy and music that keeps the atmosphere buzzing without feeling pretentious.”

We came for brunch, not sure if it was just going to be Instagram hype, but the atmosphere was great and service was attentive. The chilaquiles blew us away! Immediately flavorful, the red salsa was rich and tasty (spicy too), and the chips were solid and not too soggy. Recommend adding steak. The birria breakfast tacos were a little dry and not as flavorful as we hoped, but fine breakfast tacos. The cafe de olla and side of conchas were the star of the show! Delicious, fresh, and nostalgic.

Great place to grab a drink and light food. More of a happy hour spot. Restaurant isn't that big. Seating in mainly outside.

Our servers Jacob and Darren were amazing. They keep the drinks and food coming and were very tentative. We'll definitely be back to turn up again #LibraTurnUp #SchoolGirlVibes

First time trying this spot for breakfast and coffee, and it was great! I ordered the iced horchata latte. It was delicious and not overly sweet, plus beautifully presented. Loved that they offer pan dulce with my cafe. Our server, Steven, was attentive and took really good care of us. Definitely coming back to try more things from the menu.
