5 Reviews for The Fireplace Restaurant
The Fireplace Restaurant in Brookline has a great vibe (yes, it's got a fireplace!). Great modern New England fare and live jazz and latin music on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Recommended for a nice date or a casual get-together with friends.

My wife and I decided to have a Washington Square night. Start at Fireplace, get some pastries at Athans, then head over to Publick House. Fireplace is just UNREAL. It never ceases to blow me away. We both had the half-chicken, their signature dish. I've been dreaming of it since. Started with the mussels - oh man, that broth? Fireplace is just insane - in my top 5 favorite restaurants in the greater Boston area. A special place indeed. Jim Solomon has done a great job.
