| - After almost getting smashed twice in the tight parking lot by circling minivans, we made it into Firefly.
I'm a Tapas gal from way back, and El Farol in Santa Fe New Mexico is one of my all time favorite haunts!
The ambience here is a bit crushed, but cordial waitstaff showed us to our table, and even allowed us to pick our table. We chose the window, since this lively lounge is very crowded and noisy. Enjoyed the colorful version of Guernica on the wall!
Fabulous service, but I always find a smile works to break the ice, and the considerate waitress even advised me to order my drinks quick, since Happy Hour was about to end! Two Sangrias in hand, I then perused the menu. The white wine with aples and other fruits is light and refreshing and two for one definately made them worthwhile.
Thank you fellow yelpers, for helping with decision time! The bacon wrapped dates are todiefor! Also the pork empanadas, would brave rampant minivans for one anytime! Beef sliders went down with no fuss! The best ending was the Tres Leches Chocolate cake...like a cool cocoa with whipped cream! Hearty and soulful at the same time.
