| - Went with my fiance to Firefly in Hendersen for the first time last night.
When you walk up the stairs at night you look to the left and see an awesome view of the Strip. The atmosphere is lively on a Friday night and the decor is warm.
For tapas we tried:
- Ceviche of Shrimp: I thought it was good, but nothing overly special. It had avocado in it which I haven't seen done before. I enjoyed that part, but I felt it was still lacking something. It just seemed like someone mixed avocado, shrimp, and onions with lime juice. Not bad by any means, just nothing special.
- Apple and Manchego Salad: Nothing too special with this Tapa either. My fiance got it for herself and I had a couple bites. I felt the apple a bit overpowering, but the flavor wasn't bad.
- Artichoke Toasts: AMAZING! Everything from the aioli to the hearts was excellent. This will be the first thing I order when I come back.
- Manchego Mac and Cheese: Excellent Mac and Cheese. Great flavor of real cheese and a good level of saltiness.
- Crispy Duck Roll: Tasty! The duck was ever-so-slightly overcooked, but the hoisen sauce made up for it. Great flavor.
- Scallops Escargot: These were pretty good. I was hoping it would be standard sized scallops, but they were cut in half. The garlic and herb sauce paired really well with it though.
We also tried their Mojito. It had great taste and went down smooth. One issue though, the mint wasn't really muddled. It was just put in there. While it still had a minty taste, it could've been better with more genuine mint flavor.
All in all, we will definitely be back to try their other tapas. Well worth the visit and I'm definitely a fan.
