    Great food, but gave me food poisoning, and wouldn't give me my money back. Was only a gift card for less than half what we spent there, but I dont want to risk losing another day of work.

    I visited Fire Breather BBQ for the first time last night.

    The restaurant is small, but has seating for around a dozen people.

    Unless you bring your own drink, or buy one of their bottled drinks, you'll want your food to-go; they do not have a soda fountain or provide cups of water. When I asked, the young lady responded that they do not provide cups because everything is "biodegradable."

    She suggested that the restaurant next door had water cups. Unless both restaurants share the same owner-- which I'm sure they do not-- it was a disrespectful suggestion: that customers of one leech off the other.

    Also, not all of their containers are "biodegradable." The base of the main food container is cardboard, but the top (for to-go orders) is clear plastic and stamped "made with 50 percent post-consumer." The containers for the side dish and bbq sauce, and the cutlery, are also plastic.

    The theme seems to be "Earth friendly," but the implementation is ham-fisted with its exclusive use of disposable/recyclable materials, rather than washable serviceware for dine-in customers.

    I ordered the "carnivore" plate, with baby back ribs, tri tip, and roasted sweet potato, and a small Hawaiian roll and some small, sweet pickles.

    The portions for the meat were excellent: four ribs and a section of tri tip roughly 1.5 inches wide by 8 inches long, sliced into quarter-inch thick medallions. The side dish was disappointingly small, however, served in a 3.25 oz container; I think it is the smallest side dish I've ever had. If you *are* a carnivore, this works out well, but it is less than ideal for us omnivores.

    The meat was only warm, not hot, and I ate within ten minutes of receiving my order. Don't wait too long to eat, or you may have to microwave it.

    All the items tasted fine. The tri tip was moist and tender, with a visible smoke ring around the edges. The ribs were tender but firm; they weren't falling off the bone, but neither were they tough, and separated easily enough from the bone when pulled. The roasted sweet potato was good, but otherwise unremarkable, as was the Hawaiian roll. The pickles were fine, though the sweet taste clashed with the rest of the meal, I think; dill would have been a better choice. The bar-b-que sauce was an unremarkable, sweet, tomato variety.

    In summary, the food tasted fine, though it was served cooler than it should have been, and the side dish portion was too small. The lack of a soda fountain will hurt the business, I think. At a minimum, they need to offer water, and perhaps brewed tea, by the glass.
