    A very nice experience! Obviously a different vibe from the super casual beach scene, which is what we were looking for. Everyone encountered, from the hostesses, water service & waiter was so nice, welcoming & helpful. The wine recommendation was excellent & surprisingly affordable. They did have an extensive wine selection, however. We had the wedge salad, lobster tails & stuffed filet. All prepared perfectly & as ordered. Topped off by the flaming crème brûlée Thank you, Lance for an enjoyable experience! We will be back next time we’re in PCB!

    Don't let the strip mall location fool you. Not only does this make parking easier (something hard to find in Panama City), but a spectacular experience awaits you inside. The restaurant is very large inside, with fantastically decorated areas to explore. The dining room is a sight to behold. We were immediately greeted by our bus steward and our waiter and welcomed warmly. The waiter was incredibly conscientious about my wife's allergy (Celiac) and even informed the manager that they had an allergy at our table so that the entire staff would be aware. You don't find that everyday! Also, our waiter, Michael, was new to the job, having been promoted recently. Michael was one of the best waiters we have had in years! Easy conversation with him, trust in his care for our allergy, easy pace of food and just a nice guy. He's got Maître D' Hotel or manager in his future for sure! The food: exquisitely prepared and wonderfully tasteful. The wagyu beef bruschetta was a meal in itself, while the Caesar salad served in a parmesan tuile was fun and delightful - maybe too much pecorino for our tastes but the chef didn't hold back :) Our entrees of Elk and grouper were cooked to perfection with our different risottos perfectly done and very flavorful. Overall, one of the highlights of our vacation and HIGHLY recommended for service, ambience and the food. Excuisite night!

    Our first visit and certainly not our last. Wonderful atmosphere with the small intimate rooms. Great service and a nice menu, although I was a little disappointed in the stuffed filet mignon. However, the blackened grouper was outstanding. Overall, a very nice dining experience with a casual theme.

    This was our second visit but this time the kids came along. Chad was our server and he was top notch. He was very personable, made the kids feel especially welcome, and did everything he could to make the dinner exceptional. The food was all amazing same as last time (BRING BACK THE VENISON). Drinks were great and the kids even got to feel special with a couple of mocktails. Firefly is becoming a yearly tradition for us and I hope to keep coming back for years to come.
