The 3 course prix fixe meal is a pretty decent option for $55. I picked the ricotta gnocchi with macadamia nuts and foam for my entree and a dessert called Summertime with 2 sorbets and melon .

Nicholas Osborne

Not what you would expect to be here but try the Fish & Chips with home made Tartar sauce , one of the best examples I have ever had. Also have the bread pudding for dessert , its heaven!

Johnnie Skywalking

Fried olive can't be missed. Salmon either. Even crowded , wait to be seated at dinner table than bar table. Fancy interior to entertain your dinner inside.

Narine

The best coconut mojito and fried olives on this planet, coupled with great ambiance - a bit pricey but worth it.

Dona Williams

The mussels absolutely live up to the hype and the beef tenderloin is life changing! Can't beat the outdoor patio on a summer night, a very, very special place.

Katrina

A nice bar in the neighborhood with cool vibe and good crowd. Unisex bathrooms . Fries are yummy. Great place for dates.

Neel Gupta

Hidden gem of studio city, old school pornstar hangout (apparently?). Great drinks, food is good too.

Larisa Grollemond

Check out the bar for a fun place to have a cocktail , lots of seating but grab a res for restaurant seating.

Jason C

Gorgeous restaurant that feels 25 times larger inside than it looks from the outside.

David M.

What's not to like, no sign outside but usually pretty crowded nonetheless. Friendly bartenders and great desserts .

Crystal Rose

Make reservations . Firefly is always packed but the food is worth the wait. (I miss the bread pudding !!!!). The unisex bathroom makes for awkward introductions and great conversation...

Yvonne Wang

Make sure you order a Moscow Mule from Jack; they are my drink of choice and his are the best I've ever had!

Dahvi Shira

Great service and beautiful ambiance. A true over-the-hill classic that never gets old

Jessika ????

Beautiful place. Feels like you're lounging in a secret garden / vampires lair. I'll be back. The unisex bathroom does trip me the hell out though!

David Jensen

Best Mussels I have ever had! Hands down, I will come back over and over just for these mussels . Oh, and everything else is awesome too!

Linda Antwi

Try the Beautiful Disaster for dessert !! Awesomesauce!

Monique Lam

Make sure you read the fine print on the menu. They charge you for everything and trick you into doing to the pre-fix menu.

Matt Borst

Start with the skillet mussels and try the homemade parpadelle with oxtail ragu ! Great cocktails too!

T Z

mushroom tagliatelle was solid. bread is great too

Diann K

Fried olives for sure!!

Rachel Lodin

Make sure to get their birthday desert is you celebrate a birthday!

Eunice Sassi

The fish was definitely one of the best I have had.

Jessica Jordan

Mussles were flavorful definitely a must try! I wanted seconds!

Ms Em

If there's an "in" place in the valley, this is it. Cool upscale library-like atmosphere with an outdoor area but a little stuffy for me. No sign, just a huge green bush. Read more

Angela Taprogge

The Steak Frite was great!

David Profumo

Pork Duo - Love it!

Greg Inguagiato

Everything we had was great no complaints

Leor

Great lounge and restaurant . Every night has a cool vibe. Fried string beans and calamari is a must have.

Martin Mazzocco

Try the fried olives and the cocnut mojito ! Ask for Joey as your server - he is fabulous!

Efrosini-Maria Fergadis

Amazing drinks and cool place!!!

Andrea TK

Great mezcal cocktails

Jason Reeves

Firefly is a great restaurant in Studio City to spend a low-key night out in valley with friends.

Paige C

Definitely try the white sangria . Trust me, you will want more than one pitcher .

Brad Crowell

The best Lychee Martini . Ask for extra lychee .

Bum Squad DJz Worldwide

When you come to this place make sure you try a drink called Yoori.. Ask the bartender !

Sufi Hami

Crispy olives are just delicious.

Carol Adam

The fried olives are a must! And for dessert the banana bread pudding ! To die for!

Mussels are a must!!

You have to try the fried olives and sashimi on rice cake , it's delicious!!!

Ashley Brauer

Love the bathroom attendant in the unisex bathroom :)

Copyrider

If it's a slow nite, make friends with the bartenders.They're solid guys and great people to know on a packed night!

Kelly Park-Lee

Best tuna tartare !

Josh Robins

Food is pretty standard. Nothing stands out as amazing, which disappointingly does not match the price or ambiance.

Freddi R

Cocktails ! Cool gins .

Michael Rahhal

No fireflies here, but I recommend trying the unisex bathroom .

Laura Watts

Omg, the cheesecake !

Prentice Smith

Listening to Chicago!

Copyrider

If you go on a Tuesday nite, you'll most likely see a celebrity. BE COOL.
