Firewood At Metreon

I always get their lasagna, and I really enjoy this place. It's relatively inexpensive - lasagna is $10 - and it's a nice place to eat before a movie or shopping in the area. Service is friendly and the ambience is bright. After having mediocre Thai food in the new Westfield, I am super happy that this place is in the Metreon (and cheaper, too, it seems - for the quality of food).

The Metreon features some fairly high-end stores and their food court suits the overall quality of the place nicely. Our salads were really decent though I had to retreive more iced tea for us. My girlfriend's sandwhich was a bit dry but this was solved by adding extra dressing. They'd get a higher score from me if we ever had table service.

Probably the best food that you'll get in a foodcourt and with its location why wouldn't you grab some grub before or after a movie. The food is consistent and is delivered to your table fast. The entrees are a good portion and tasty. Try the baked rigatoni and a side of roasted red peppers.

Firewood has great salads and pizza for a good value - Split one of each with a friend or go for the side salads and pizza. Sometimes the pasta can be pretty salty (like the mac n' cheese - yes they will give it to you even if you aren't a kid!). The chicken and roasted potatoes are tasty as well. Beware if there is a convention - the Metreon can be quite crowded.

I love Firewood's pizza and array of appetizers, always fresh and satisfying. I especially recommend the Prosciuto Pizza and don't forget the tiramisu. A must before a movie or for a casual bite.
