NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Sept. 18, 2023 – Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, the award-winning American restaurant and steakhouse, today announced plans to open its newest restaurant in Murfreesbroro’s Clari Park development on Monday, October 2. The restaurant, which is known for preparing its seasoned, hand-cut aged steaks, fresh seafood and more over an open flame, will open its newest 6,000-square-foot restaurant at 2532 Medical Center Pkwy. The Murfreesboro location will be the concept’s second location in Greater Nashville and will employ about 100 people.
“I’ve had the distinct privilege of being a part of the hospitality community in Middle Tennessee for years, and there’s nothing quite like the energy and vibrancy of the food scene here. As we have for years at Firebirds in Brentwood, my team and I look forward to serving only the finest wood-fired steaks, seafood and more to this growing community in historic Murfreesboro,” said Kevin Hodges, General Manager of Firebirds in Murfreesboro. “On behalf of the entire Firebirds team, we couldn’t be more thrilled to serve our neighbors in Clari Park for years to come.”
Firebirds takes pride in its scratch kitchen, offering bold flavors and hand-cut, aged steaks and fresh seafood, which are cooked over an open flame visible from the restaurant’s dining room. The new restaurant in Murfreesboro will offer staples from its extensive lunch, dinner and weekend brunch menus and will feature the concept’s striking FIREBAR®. This restaurant centerpiece offers Bar Bite features on weekdays from 4 to 7 p.m., along with a full liquor bar and Firebirds’ signature martini, the Double Black Diamond® Martini, which is a masterful infusion of fresh pineapple and New Amsterdam® Pineapple Vodka, garnished with a juicy fresh pineapple slice.
Firebirds will host a private pre-opening event and fundraiser for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation – the restaurant company’s national charity partner – to aid in the fight against childhood cancer. In addition to raising funds pre-opening and hosting other events throughout the year, for every Alex’s Lemonade purchased in every Firebirds restaurant, $1.25 is donated to the foundation.
