The Best Fireside Seats in Town

So here we are. 11/11. The day the weather broke and forced everyone to dig through their closet for a parka. But before you just go nuts and start a trash can fire at your desk, consider... not doing that. Because now you know about these much, much better fireplace options.

ONE-ALARM FIRE

Table 30, Komali

You require: Spicy pork ribs and habanero-spiked cocktails. Plus one more thing that’s warm.
You’ll receive: That other thing. It’s this cozy two-top beside Komali’s conversation piece of a fireplace. Here’s a talking point to get you started: “Wow, get a load of that fireplace.”

TWO-ALARM FIRE

The Fireside Table, The Live Oak Bar

You require: Something outdoors because you refuse to be bested by the weather. But... your closest table to the fire, please.
You’ll receive: A cozy setup of two couches and a table right in front of the big stone fireplace. Bring a special someone(s) and huddle for added warmth.

THREE-ALARM FIRE

Tables 15 and 16, Hibiscus

You require: A plush leather booth and perfectly cooked steaks.
You’ll receive: Both of those things next to a roaring fireplace. Watch the light flicker across your Wagyu bone-in steak’s enchanting visage as you lean in for the first bite. That’s not weird at all.

FOUR-ALARM FIRE

Table 88, The Mansion Bar

You require: A quiet spot to enjoy a drink before taking things upstairs.
You’ll receive: A couple high-backed chairs, a little table and a grand fireplace so close you could use it to warm your brandy.

FIVE-ALARM FIRE

Fire Pit, The Rooftop at Nora

You require: An open fire for, well... not roasting s’mores so much as drinking wine and enjoying city views.
You’ll receive: This stone fire pit that’s anchoring Nora’s roof. Claim one of the surrounding benches, warm your hands, burn some incriminating documents... Hey, your fire.
