Longtime east Wichita restaurant's west-side counterpart opens this week
Managers spent the weekend training staff at a couple of invite-only events. And on Tuesday, the new Firebirds Wood Fired Grill at 2824 N. Maize Road will open to the public. The restaurant, which is southwest of the Hobby Lobby at 29th North and Maize, is the second location of the chain for Wichita. Started by onetime Wichitan and Lone Star Steakhouse founder Dennis Thompson and some partners 25 years ago in Charlotte, Firebirds o pened its first Wichita restaurant in 2013 at the Waterfront development. The chain now has nearly 70 locations across the country. The west-side restaurant is smaller than the one on the east side and a bit less ornate. It doesn’t have a private dining room like the east side, but it does have a big outdoor patio facing Maize Road that has a fireplace and heaters. The menu at Firebirds features a variety of steaks, seafood options like salmon and Chilean sea bass, ribs, chicken, pasta dishes, burgers and sandwiches. It also has a separate lunch menu and serves brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Brunch features breakfast cocktails along with items such as baked French toast and grilled salmon benedict.
