Fodor's Expert Review Firefly* Tapas Kitchen + Bar

As the name suggests, this hip bistro focuses on small plates (many less than $10) that reflect most of the world's cuisines. Order several and you've got a meal, made even better with one of Firefly's signature sangrias or mojitos, available by the glass or pitcher. Options include ham-and-cheese croquettes, meatballs in a sherry-tomato sauce, marinated and grilled octopus, and shrimp in lemon-garlic-butter sauce. A few heartier entrées, such as paella, are offered as well. In the spring of 2023, the original location moved a mile or so to a larger building (which some may remember as McCormick & Schmick's) on the edge of the Hughes Center office park. There is also a second location in Southwest Las Vegas at  7355 S. Buffalo Drive.
