Not bad, not likely to go back though

Options were great, interesting variety. Service was slow and not overly attentive relative to the price

Daikon cakes - good but too much soy, bit salty
Sweet potatoes - nice but too much sauce
Pancakes - nice but a bit dry
Rice pudding - delicious

Enchiladas - good but no better than others I've had at Firefly in San Francisco

Pancakes - dry but good at Firefly in San Francisco

Lentil soup - very good at Firefly in San Francisco

Daikon cakes - bit salty at Firefly in San Francisco

Potatoes - good but too much sauce (and I love sauce) at Firefly in San Francisco

Friendly staff and great food

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They were able to provide vegan alternatives (like vegan Parmesan or cashew cheese) for multiple menu items.

Extremely Accommodating and Delicious

My partner and I are both vegan and have had two tasty meals at Firefly in the past six months. Even though they are not a fully vegan restaurant, they offer an amazing variety of vegan choices, and their knowledgable and friendly staff are happy to explain the menu. Both times we were blown away by their daikon radish cakes, and it's a surprising pleasure to have multiple other appetizers, small plates, and entrees to choose from. I would definitely give them 5 stars if HappyCow would allow that, but that's reserved for fully vegan or vegetarian places. We are very much looking forward to our next meal at Firefly!

Pros: Number of Choices, Friendly Staff, Comfortable Environment

Amazing.

Excellent balance of textures and flavors. Massive portions with high quality ingredients. Menu didnt list the vegan items but service staff was VERY knowledgeable and could tell us all the vegan options on the menu and what ingredients they use for them. Even has 2 vegan desserts! Will go back often

Two of the best desserts you will ever have. at Firefly in San Francisco

One of my favorite restaurants in the city

Adorable ambiance; has a seasonal menu that always has two vegan entrees, and most of the starters and salads are vegan or easily modified. Staff is very friendly and always knowledgeable about what's vegan. Amazing vegan desserts. Good wine list too.

Pros: Atmosphere, Good options, Good wine and beer list

Cons: Pricey, Usually need a reservation
