Located just off the lobby of the hotel, FireLake is making headlines with its appealing menu, stylish interiors and relaxed ambience where a blend of classic Midwestern meets Mediterranean. Diners can watch chefs skillfully coach the flames licking deliciously at thick-cut chops, steaks and fresh fish roasting in the hickory-fired brick oven and chickens turning lazily on the wood-burning...

Watch the fire charmers at work here the food is mesquite flavored and fire licked. Chef Paul Lynch focuses on ingredients from the Heartland, and changes the menu according to whats tastiest. Try the pan seared trout and eggs for breakfast, the orchard chicken wrap for lunch and the buffalo pot roast for dinner. Inventive happy hours change with the weather, so ask a bartender for the...

The lower level offers contemporary decor with horseshoe-shaped booths and tables in view of a buzzing kitchen. The upper dining room offers views of the hotel valet service.

I had breakfast the other day at FireLake for the first time. I can't understand why it was so slow. What a hidden gem. I tried the Asparagus Bruschetta Benedict, it was fantastic. My fiancee had the stuffed french toast. The canadian bacon, they call it something else, was the best I have ever had. The service was terrific. Tyrone treated us like a guest in his home. I loved the open...
