We serve food that, more often than not, accesses that part of our deepest soul where genuine expression can flow forth. We have always tried to give our food and service our best selves, as honest and vulnerable as we can muster. We strive to be a place where you might actually have a real connection; maybe with your server, maybe with your food or maybe with your possibly gracious host who is ACTUALLY glad you’re there.

Oh, you wanted a restaurant description? Sorry. Can’t really help you there. We’re not so big on labels. Our food is hard to nail down as we are constantly evolving and entirely seasonal and personal. We’ve used “Food you eat” as a tag line on occasion and that remains accurate. We could also describe it as “Food we really want you to eat”. When you’re here, tell us what you would call it.

    I hadn't been to Firefly since before the pandemic, but it was as good as I remembered. The food was innovative and my friend reported that the generous portion of their signature fried chicken was delicious. The service was attentive and the ambiance pleasant.

    We had the pastrami trout, the lamb stew, and the Moqueca Baiana. Everything was excellent.

    Love this place. Our party of 7 had to eat outside and while my pref is inside, the heaters kept us cozy. Great food!! Don’t miss it.

    Food was amazing! Even my toddler loved everything we ordered. We sat outside and were impressed with the individualized heaters. Service was a pretty slow but maybe they were having an off day.
