Firebird Tavern expands

Firebird Tavern, the popular American tavern in Detroit’s Greektown, has opened a second location in Troy. “After nearly seven years of searching for the perfect second location, we are beyond excited to open our doors in Troy and become a part of this active, family-oriented community,” said Tony Piraino, co-owner of Firebird Tavern and a Troy resident. “We have put immense thought and effort into creating a space that reflects the spirit of Firebird while adding our unique touch to the local dining scene. We can’t wait to welcome loyal fans and newcomers to experience what Firebird offers.” The menu will continue to focus on its signature blend of elevated comfort food and inspired dishes made with ingredients sourced from local purveyors. From its award-winning diner burger and the Fire ‘Bird’ sandwich to the customer favorite Bánh Mì bowl and a shareable soft pretzel with house-made beer cheese, there is something to satisfy nearly every palate. The Troy location will also offer hand-crafted personal-sized pizzas. The new Troy location, featuring a modern and airy interior, was thoughtfully designed to provide an inviting and comfortable atmosphere reminiscent of the downtown location. With seating for around 130 guests, the approximately 5,000 square-foot Firebird Tavern Troy location will offer patrons a locally-owned spot to gather with friends and family for a relaxed dining experience. Guests can kick back at the bar, or enjoy the Michigan seasons in the expansive pavilion patio and outdoor space. 4845 Rochester Road, Troy firebirdtavern.com
