Cool atmosphere. Unique decorations and great natural lighting. Love the river front views. Plenty of seating. We love the pulled pork sandwich. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Great casual place for lunch or dinner. No reservation needed. They have a fun cocktail menu, but do not have NA options.

Everything was excellent at this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice. The waittress was kind and efficient and the drinks and food were amazing. I wouldn't pass up the deviled eggs which are made with candied bacon and pickled onions. What a great combination. My husband had the Thai peanut stir fry and I had the Mac n' Cheese. They were both very good. Fresh ingredients. Drank a mint chocolate coffee. It was good, but a bit sweet for me. It would be better with more coffee to even it out. My husband's Martina was a bit sweet too. Otherwise, the food was very good. We will be back!

Went mid afternoon on a Sunday after a play at Old Town Playhouse. Luckily we were seated in the bar area so we could watch the football game. The bartender was our waitress. She was awesome. Gave great advise and feedback on food items we were considering and drinks. It was quiet that day, so perfect for us! I had the French dip which was more like a Philly and it was delicious and very filling. Got the aioli on the side (per our servers suggestion) which was great as it would have been to much on the sandwich. Will definitely be returning. Sorry I forgot to take a picture.

Food was great. I got a Yooper Burger with a side of truffle fries and the wife got the sesame chicken. Burger was the best burger I've had in a minute. Service was solid. I think fries should be included in the price of the burger but it's an affluent hipster city with a rainbow flag on every window and a Subaru Forester in every driveway and these places always cost more. So when in Rome and ya gotta eat, this place is really good and I would highly recommend it.

This place always has great food and atmosphere. We had an assortment of small plates and sushi, but be warned; the menu says the raw sushi is marked with an astrix (*) but we found this to not be the case as the "Volcano" role has raw spicy tuna but lacked the raw designation. Our server fixed this for us and everything else we had was excellent so I'm giving it an overall rating of 5 stars because I can't give it 4.5.

Went to Firefly Restaurant on Saturday night with some friends. Great building and located along the river. Inside was nice and updated. Service was good and waitress was friendly, a little slow but we weren’t in a hurry and we were kidless for the night so not a big deal. Food was good…had the flank steak which I was excited to have but it was a little tougher than I expected and not a ton of flavor…my wife had an Thai peanut chicken dish and she was very pleased…the Ceasars salad had a sauce that was too garlicky so our friend didn’t eat it or take it home (waitress didn’t ask why but we didn’t say anything either).

The service and ambiance are delightful and the chicken stir fry is delicious. The highlight though? The spinach artichoke dip with pita chips. O m g. It will not disappoint.

Good food, pretty good service. The location was pretty and right on the river. I think the flank steak with truffle fries was the best thing we ordered. Are the guys required to wear shorts? It was a chilly day yet all the men had their legs out and about 🦵

The ambience is great, place is spacious and service is excellent. I ordered the sweet spicy Calamari which is flavorful. I also got the Salmon with veggies and rice. Salmon was cooked perfectly, veggies steamed and tasty but some of my rice was a bit not too fully cooked. Overall, I would still come back to try their other dishes and drinks next time.

Very cute restaurant. We sat right on the water. Kid friendly, we had our 4 year old son and he enjoyed it. Service was fantastic and food was even better. If we lived closer we would definitely be visiting again.
