The real gem of the night was our hostess, May May. Her kindness, personality and sense of humor truly elevated the entire experience and made us feel incredibly welcome. The manager was also gracious enough to send over a round of shots for the table, which was a really nice touch. I personally only had drinks, but my party ordered the salmon and couldn't stop talking about how fresh and flavorful it was. Great atmosphere, great drinks and even better hospitality. What started as a random stop turned into one of the highlights of the night. We'll definitely be back!

Great mixologists and wait staff is very attentive. We went three rounds and everyone was happy with their drinks. The mini lobster rolls and fries were a nice entree for one of the guests. The fries had a nice seasoning to them and topped with garnish. Everyone else was here for the drinks. So many options on the drink menu including wines, cocktails and mocktails. If you don't see it on the menu, you can still ask if they can make it. Very cool vibes and atmosphere. The seating was comfy in the booths and the lighting was just right for a social gathering.

Fortunately, the food was delicious and service was impeccable. We ordered 4 entrées to share and enjoyed everything. My favorite was the Half-Baked Chicken. The skin was so crispy and the chicken so tender. The Braised Short Rib was also really good and the crispy Brussels sprouts that come with it were the perfect amount of crispy. The other dishes we ordered were good too. We finished everything down to the last grain of rice.

The floral displays are fun and are probably the highlight of the visit. The space is clearly designed for photos, and I can see why it would be popular for birthdays, showers, or other special occasions. They seem to go the extra mile when it comes to creating a celebratory atmosphere. Service was excellent from start to finish. The staff at reception and at the table were attentive, friendly, and welcoming. Food-wise, we tried the Kung Pao calamari and wagyu meatballs after seeing other reviewers rave about them, but both felt a little gimmicky to me. Our group mostly stuck with more traditional brunch items, including breakfast burritos and omelettes, and those were fine. Overall, I would not necessarily come here just for the food, but I would recommend it for the atmosphere, service, and special-occasion vibe. It is a great spot if you want a pretty setting, good hospitality, and plenty of photo-friendly areas.

The real star of the night was Joyce behind the bar. She's the kind of bartender who instantly makes you feel welcome, like you've been a regular for years even if it's your first visit. She knows her drinks, makes amazing recommendations, and somehow keeps the energy fun and relaxed even when the bar gets busy. You can tell she genuinely cares about people having a good experience, and that kind of service is rare. Her gin and tonic was perfectly balanced -- crisp, refreshing, and honestly one of the best I've had. And the green tea shots? Dangerous in the best way possible. Smooth, flavorful, and way too easy to keep ordering because they go down so well. Joyce makes them with consistency and a little extra flair that makes the whole experience feel special. Food-wise, I highly recommend the pork dumplings -- flavorful, perfectly cooked, and the ideal pairing with drinks. Everything just worked together: great food, great drinks, and even better hospitality. Joyce truly elevates the entire atmosphere at Firefly, turning a normal night out into something memorable. If you're going, sit at the bar, trust her recommendations, and thank me later. 10/10 experience -- I'll absolutely be back.

My only thing is the food option is limited and it's more pub finger food. Definitely would eat dinner somewhere then make a stop here for a drink.

She was friendly, attentive, gave good recommendations, and worked seamlessly with the rest of the staff to make sure everything went smoothly. The restaurant has a great vibe with a bar, indoor and outdoor seating, and a nicely decorated back room that was perfect for our group. It's clean, spacious, and was surprisingly busy for a Monday early night. We also found out they have great specials, including $1 wings. The spicy margarita was a hit amongst the group. The drinks were good, and my favorites were the Brussels sprouts and calamari. The rest of the group loved the wings, and the salad, and burger was also really good. We ordered a variety of small plates and desserts to share, and everything was enjoyable. We will definitely be back and would recommend it. Metered street parking is available outside.
