"Very cute outdoor space. I've only had apps and drinks there. The apps were good but typical. The mixed drinks were very, very weak. My vodka and cranberry was deep red and tasted as if it was just cranberry juice.
My friend who had a rum and diet coke, thought he just got diet coke and had to confirm his order with the waiter - it was a rum and coke."

DaugDawg:
"I’ve seen this location change so many times over the years. I have to say that I really like Halsted’s! It’s the perfect neighborhood place to relax and eat.”"

RyanOH:
"When I first moved to town I went on a date to Firefly... the date wasn't the best... but the dinner and atmosphere was great. I haven't seen the boy again, but I have returned to Firefly numerous times.
Highly recommended."

HomoSeth:
"Firefly is a great place for dinner... it's versatile for a number of occasions. I've come here for a quiet dinner, dates, for celebrations, and group gatherings.
The service is always great and the food fantastic. I'd recommend this neighborhood eatery."

This is the second location of the family owned Cesar's, home of the "Killer Margarita," serving 8 margaritas, 18 Tequilas and a half a dozen Mexican beers.
