| - I went to Firefly for the UYE, but my schedule didn't allow me to stay for the group so I went a little early.
I got there at 5pm, and had no problem snagging a stool at the bar. They run a Happy Hour from 4-6 with half priced drinks, and I must say the Mojitos were really good.
This summer I decided I'm gonna try Mojitos whenever possible and have been drinking my way across town, I have to say Firefly's are top notch.
I had the Pomegranate and the Watermelon Mojitos, both were hand muddled, the Pomegranate included Pomegranate Juice, while the watermelon one included some watermelon syrup that made it taste just like a Jolly rancher.
They also had Sangria that looked amazing, but I wasn't really in a wine type of mood.
As for eats I had the Meatballs, i think there were 6 meatballs that were served in a tomato sauce and topped with Parmesan cheese, the meatballs weren't anything super fancy but good, but the sauce and cheese were great.
I also had their Tomato Basil Soup- The soup was amazing, you could really taste both the tomato and the basil. It came with a Bire grilled cheese that was surprisingly good, I'm usually not a Brie fan, but this was a very delicious companion to the soup.
The bread and olives that they serve is a nice touch, the compound garlic butter was amazing, and it was a great starter to the meal.
I will be going back and trying my way across the drink and tapas menu, undoubtedly during happy hour!!!
