Should have known from the empty parking lot that the food must not be all that good. Walked in, stood around for about 5 minutes to be greeted and the owner comes around the corner with a smile and kindly greeted us. It was our first time there. She explained how she was the 3rd...4th owner of the restaurant. (Another flag). We were seated in awkwardness. A couple of people seemed to have been there for a while to "hang out" and a somewhat large group (employees) in the back banquet room enjoying some time off the clock. We (my family of 4) proceeded to look at the menu and nothing seemed to catch our eyes so we went for the usual slider cheeseburgers for our two girls. One plate with a side of fries and the other with mashed potatoes. My husband and I ordered the Cajun chicken and shrimp pasta since we are pasta lovers. We also had a side house salad. In the description of the Cajun pasta, it stated there would be a side of garlic bread. Our orders came out around 20-25 minutes. With my daughters meal came packets of ketchup. No condiments were available in a bottle. I decided to taste the mashed potatoes given with the cheeseburger sliders and it tasted like a not so fresh potato that had been mashed with no seasonings. Not so appetizing. As my husband and I dug into our pasta, we realized the shrimp still had the tail ends attached which meant we had to pick them off before putting it on a fork. The chicken didnt taste fresh and was more like it came frozen with grill marks. Nothing special about it whatsoever. And no garlic bread. When I asked our server for the bread, she replied," If you want bread, youll have it..." But the description said it came with garlic bread. We waited for another 10-12 minutes for our garlic bread only for our server to come out with two toasted pieces of Texas toast. No garlic. No butter. Just toast. Cut into two triangles. Talk about disappointment. Lets not forget that when we went to wipe our mouths with the linen napkins, they smelled as if they werent machine washed. Stale. We were asked if we wanted any to-go boxes because of the amount of food left over and when we replied with a NO, our server looked shocked. We asked for the check, kindly tipped our server and walked away. She was kind but it takes a lot more than a friendly staff for a restaurant to pass in my book. Food wasnt the worst but it wasnt good either. The environment and setting wasnt appealing. I definitely wouldnt recommend. If I were given a free meal, I wouldnt go back.

I was at the restaurant today afternoon for lunch and the server messed it up, we waited for 1 hour and i enquired with the manager about the order and he sent the server to the table and she says the order was lost. so after one hour she comes back and says that the kitchen has lost the order paper, can you guys give a fresh order, it will take 10 minutes. then we left the place.....our precious time was wasted... people who came after us ate and left....Beware of this place

Came in during lunchtime. It was pretty slow (compared to dinner, when Ive come before). Service was pleasant, the food came quickly, and everything tasted great. One suggestion: cut the calamari thinner. The calamari is super thick! My jaws started to hurt within a few bites and I had to chose between enjoying the appetizer and eating my entree without pain, haha. Shame because it was delicious. Maybe thinner slices would help?

Not sure how such a restaurant with such beautiful inside can be relatively empty at 8:00 on a Friday night. Oh, food and service. I ordered "sliced steak medallions" and got a giant steak and was told that is how it comes. Appetizers and main course all came out at the same time. I could go on but it is what it is. I hope they get good management and cooks in there because the place is beautiful. A shame.

In town on business and stopped here because it was right across the street from hotel. Bartender was also out waiter. Food was excellent. Only issue was that they forgot two of the sides we ordered but brought them within minutes of asking about them. Awesome selection of spirits. Will definitely come back.

My experience and food werent bad, but they werent amazing either. I had a salad and sandwich for lunch. There are other items on the menu Id like to try. Unfortunately, it was too cold for me to sit out on the patio. But I think it will be really nice in the spring and summer. Ill give Firefly another try!

We went to Firefly for the first time tonight. Manager was very nice and staff was very helpful. Two of us eat gluten free and had plenty of options. Serving sizes are perfect. Nice atmosphere and good prices. I am a nutritionist and this is one of my new favorites.

Its been a few years since I visited. The service was great. I love the ambience. The food is still below par. Mac n cheese taste like it came from a cheap brand box kit. This place needs new recipies and chef.

VERY slow service, burger was over cooked and dry, bacon was burned, and the pickle spear was limp and on the verge of going bad. Adult beverages were mixed strong, so they have that going for them.

Manager was pushy on the upsell on the wine list, and was cold. Pretty much empty all evening (weekday) and the food was fine but not brilliant. Good selection of beers.

Went for a late lunch and had the brisket sandwich with Au Jus dip. It was pretty good but the french fires were lacking something though.
