    We have always enjoyed coming to the Front Yard. The menu is unique, in both food and drink, the service is always wonderful, and the food delicious. Our only comment for this meal was that the charcuterie board was pretty sparse for $24. Didn't feel like the value equaled the price, while the other shareables and entrees were closer matched quantity/quality to cost.

    The food and service was excellent! The star of the show was the truffle Mac and cheese. It is so creamy and delicious. The service was superb. The manager was constantly checking in on us and the wait staff was attentive and on standby to make sure everything was right. My favorite drink was La Quebrada. I was hesitant to order that because one of the ingredients is aperol which I dislike, but it was so tasty! It was my friend’s birthday and they gave him a dessert with a very nice presentation. I definitely would come back.

    We were unfamiliar with Firefly but, based on a good rating from YELP! we decided to try it. There were 5 of us for dinner and the food was outstanding. We opted for the 3 course fixed price menu and each dish was excellent. The waiters were friendly and attentive. The portions were generous enough so that we left satisfied but not stuffed. We'll definitely be back.
