Frommer's Review

This is a small but popular restaurant, which can make you feel a bit squeezed in. The floor-to-ceiling "firefly tree" hung with lanterns heightens this feeling. But the food is quite good. We enjoyed the roasted chicken with green garlic rice, and the grilled New York steak with horseradish twice-baked potatoes. If fries don't come with your meal, it's worth ordering them as a side; they arrive hot and salty in a paper cone set in its own stand. At lunch, consider the Firefly hoagie or the chicken Cobb salad. Desserts remain the restaurant's one weak area. Firefly lies within the Hotel Madera but has a separate entrance.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
