A large group and I went to Firefly the other night for a family celebration. We were a party of eight and were seated in the back of the restaurant and were initially quite disappointed to find out that they allow smoking in certain areas of the restaruant. We expressed this to our server, who promptly sent over the manager (whose name unfortunately escapes me, but she was a very sweet, petite brunette), who explained that she would be happy to move us, but that we would have to wait a few minutes till another big enough table became available in the non-smoking area. So, she cleared a large area for us in the lounge and even sent of a couple of amazing appetizers for us to share while we waited. We brought a couple of bottles of wine with us, but were quite impressed with their wine list and the staff's knowledge, so we also ordered a bottle we were unfamiliar with and loved, loved, loved it!!!!! By the time we were seated at our new table, any bit of annoyance with the smoke and definitely gone away. Our dinner--food, wine and all turned out to be absolutely amazing! They even sent over a new dessert (the strawberry tart) for our mother in celebration of her birthday which was absolutely to die for--if you go, definitely have it! So, all in all, our experience at Firely was great. The service staff and manager could not have made us feel more welcome if they tried. We will go back again and again!
