A word from Firefly

Firefly is the manifestation of the dream of a couple of idealistic romantics, and we’ve spent the last 17 years pursuing the realization of that dream. Our mission is to provide a dynamic neighborhood restaurant with excellent and sustainable food, rooted in the familiar with world touches, and… genuine service with intention and generosity.Continued

"We have been going to Firefly since it opened quite a few years ago & have loved but found the food not quite up to par this time, the service somewhat standoffish. we'll go back but we are on alert that things may no longer be what they used to."

"Continues to be a place with excellent food at moderate prices. Service is always good but this time it was superb despite the fact that it was a special week and the place was packed (deservedly so). The main menu is diversified so that everyone can find a favorite and, although you are filled to the gills, the desserts are not to be missed. They are great about allowing you to share. Limited wine list but excellent choices."
