Located in a former Evanston firehouse, this is the latest venture in this location. Originally opened as the Firehouse, later redone as 2 different Mexican restaurants, the restaurant has re-emerged with a firehouse decor, including the old firepole from the second floor. The menu is mostly steaks, chicken and burgers on the grill. There are lots of appetizers for sharing and a large assortment of salads. The chili comes meaty red or vegetarian. The service is friendly and efficient. I've had the steak sandwich with sauted onions and a horseradish cream, a very good Reuben sandwich, as well as the pulled pork sandwich. They also make some pretty good french fries. The blue cheese burger is large and juicy and the BBQ black bean burger is a solid vegetarian choice.
