    Everything was delicious! The entire experience was awesome from start to finish. We were sat at this really cozy table. The go go bread and tuna poke bowl as well as my soba noodle bowl were all excellent.. Even though there was a show and graduation going on. We never felt rushed and our waitress made us feel so welcome! 1000/ 10 stars! Can hardly wait to come back!

    We had an amazing time. The drinks were perfectly made. Each one of us had a different meal and all of them were delicious. I had short rib and it was cooked perfectly. The service was so attentive even the manager came over to check on how everything was going even though the restaurant was full!

    I always enjoy my meal at this restaurant. We had a new server who was in training who did a fantastic job. Bonus that it was beautiful out and we could sit outside. Only drawback, and this has nothing to do with the restaurant, was there was major construction going on next-door that was quite loud.

    Food and service was good but parked in a parking lot off of Lowell St. that has a sign for Firefly pointing into it. However, found out it is not their parking lot after having to find the car and pay $225 cash since it was towed. Dinner was not worth all that.
    Firefly American Bistro - New HampshireResponded on April 26, 2025
    Hello, and thank you for your feedback! Though we're happy to hear that you enjoyed your food and service, I'm sorry to hear that parking challenges put a damper on your evening. We'll certainly take your comments into consideration regarding the Lowell Street sign that points towards our restaurant. In the future, we always recommend parking in the Victory Parking Garage, or in a metered street spot, both of which are free of charge after 8pm on weekdays, and all day on weekends. Thank you again, and we'd love to see you again soon for a better experience. Cheers, Rachael, Manager
