    We enjoyed my favorite winter dish: cassoulet. Couldn't limit dessert to the Grand Marnier soufflé; had to have the apple tarte as well. Treated like family.

    Fun atmosphere, but way too loud to converse with my companions. Food was good, but not outstanding. Not sure if I would go back.

    We had another wonderful meal at Davenport's with friends last night. The barramundi, salmon, and tuscan seafood pasta were all delicious. The beet and burrata salad was impressive; the size almost made it a meal in itself. Portions of everything are generous and able to satisfy the heartiest of appetites. Banana cream pie comes inside a round graham crust shell with chocolate on the bottom. Signature cocktails are creative and top notch. Service was warm and gracious. Honestly, can't find anything to fault at all. Will definitely be back. Make sure to make a reservation, it was packed.

    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.
