I NEVER regret coming here. Good food, funky vibes, good service. Weekend brunch is available on Fridays! I made a reservation on OpenTable and indicated that we were celebrating a birthday. Not only did they have a card ready for us. They also gave my friend birthday cake pops at the end. Bottomless brunch was awesome per usual. Ilove that there are so many vegetarian options. Things I enjoyed: green papaya salad, cucumbers, hummus, impossible flatbread, bananas foster waffle, espresso martini. I couldn't get jiggy with the cold noodles or the curried potatoes, but that might just be me! My friend loved the dynamite shrimp, guava bread pudding, and loved the cake pops too.

First visit for my wife and I to Dragonfly. I can say with all confidence that we will definitely be back! The food and service was outstanding. Our server Samantha was friendly but professional and offered a level of hospitality that one would expect at a fine dining restaurant. Her recommendations were all hits and a few favorites were the Japanese street corn, rib eye skewer, bone in short rib, spicy kimchi pasta and the mochi cake! Amazing flavors in every bite and we look forward to exploring the menu in the future!

Our family of 8 had Christmas Eve dinner and it was spectacular! Our server Andy was the best at taking over and ordering for us. We did have the pan of paella with lobster and mushrooms. Lobster was a little over cooked. Please make sure you let them know. We had so many light tapas before Paella. Wine was also paired beautifully. Thanks Andy!
