The Scene
The cornerstone of the Washington Square dining scene, the Fireplace attracts young couples and older families with award-winning ''New England grill'' cuisine and a comfortable bar environment. While there's only one fireplace (located on the lower level, facing the bar), it fills the entire establishment with pleasant scents of winters past and future. Friendly, knowledgeable waiters patrol the warm-toned dining room, delivering dishes from the open kitchen.

The Food
The kitchen draws repeat customers with stylish, nourishing comfort food that places local, seasonal ingredients in a starring role. After starting with a New England cod cake (it comes to life thanks to a zingy lemon-caper sauce), many diners move on to the kitchen's satisfying signature dish: A spit-roasted half chicken with smooth mashed potatoes, sage brown butter and watercress. The divine dessert menu includes tantalizing ''dark and sticky'' gingerbread.
