Lonely Planet review for Firefly

Firefly is a restaurant first, but we haven’t eaten here yet and can’t judge it by those merits (other reviews seem to indicate it’s quite good on the culinary front). We can say it’s one of the coolest bars in Dupont, decked out with its surreal, magically happy ‘firefly trees, ’ all candle-lit and reminiscent of childhood summer evenings, and romantic as hell to boot. The cocktail menu is a glorious thing; knock back an Opal (rum, chai spices and cream) and see if the world doesn’t just glow a little more…wait, that’s the firefly trees. Whatever – still happy!
