    The short rib with mashed potatoes was delicious and full of flavor. The lobster squash ravioli with bacon maple sauce was mind-blowing, and the service was outstanding!

    We are frequently here and like the place. Last night we took a friend and his wife. The place was slammed. We get it. The waitress was great. However, it was deafeningly loud. Especially from a loud table of woman next to us. Then, unfortunately, the food was very sub optimal at for the moment pace. Sandwiches, steak tips, noodle bowls and apps. Just all below the usual standard. None of us finished anything. The pumpkin cheesecake desert was good though.

    My friends and I have enjoyed several lunches at the Firefly over the past several years. It is a very pleasant bistro with some e innovative approaches to bistro standards. The staff has been unfailingly pleasant and appropriately attentive. Always a pleasure.

    One of my favorite Manchester restaurants! Food is fantastic and wait staff is very attentive. Prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area. On the noisy side but so worth it!
