Food was okay but very expensive and the servers looked like they were begging us to leave! Ate here once and didn't go back. The outdoor seating was fun and it's very convenient if you're staying at the Dana, but otherwise don't waste a trip!

Weather wasn't great so couldn't sit outside and was a bit warm inside. Ordered the pastrami sandwich and was impressed! Was as good as it looked.

It was good…decent bar and nice ambiance, but the menu was sparse and the service kinda “meh”. I felt they were stingy on the cocktails for the price but on a positive note, the salsa was delicious! And the wagu burger was perfectly cooked.

First meal was great! Mushroom Fettuccine, seared Mahi Mahi and baked chicken were awesome! Our waitress was spectacular the first day. Second was a complete train wreck! Super salt chicken tortilla soup and a lava cake, that somehow forgot about the lava, that would have been disappointing even if it didn't take 25 mins to arrive at the table. Regretting going back as it ruined my opinion of the place.

This is a great little spot in the Dana in Mission Bay, I was here with fam and wife for 3day walk and had the pleasure of having Aldo as our bartender for 2 nights. The service was awesome and drinks were awesome Aldo makes some bomb pain killers that made my wife and Aunts very happy.highly recommend a stop by.

Good food, slow service. Perhaps they should update their prices instead of just adding 5% to your bill.

The brunch buffet was adequate. Can't be far off with breakfast fare. The calamari was chewy, not tender. The breast of chicken was dry. Brussel Sprouts were also chewy. Not the best hotel food I've had.

Excellent Breakfast Buffet. Great selection of fruits and a new side every day - French toast, corned beef hash. Good make to order omlet bar. Comfortable outside dining. Did not try for lunch or dinner.

Don't miss The Firefly! Over the course of our stay at The Dana, we enjoyed several mornings outside on their cozy patio having coffee and brunch with family and friends. You'll have a wonderful view of the Marina and pool as you sit on cushioned chairs under umbrellas. We were lucky to have been greeted by hummingbirds flitting about drinking nectar from the many Bird of Paradise plants surrounding the outdoor eatery.

The service at The Firefly is excellent. I have stayed in many places from budget hotels to remote resorts and the Customer Service at The Firefly is remarkable and unexpected. We were remembered and greeted cordially each morning with a high level of professionalism and care. Never have I felt more welcome in a restaurant or lodging establishment than I did here.

Brunch offerings include fresh, ripe fruit, smoked salmon, pastries, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, bread and other items. Omelettes and eggs are also made to order while you wait and special orders are made as requested. Coffee is fresh and hot.

Sehr leckeres Essen bei einem tollen Ambiente. Der Preis ist nicht ohne, aber man bekommt auf jeden Fall was für sein Geld. Auch zu empfehlen ist der Wein auf Empfehlung des Hauses.

We dined here as resort guests and the location is really peaceful and inviting. You get views of the marina and tabletop firepits at some of the seating areas. Our servers were always attentive and friendly, never had any issue with any kind of requests.

Our first meal was dinner for our first night. Exhausted and hungry, we were looking forward to a comforting meal. My sister ordered their filet and loved the mashed potatoes and french green beans. My meal unfortunately was super salty on the baked salmon. My chicken tortilla soup lacked flavor and needed the salt that covered the salmon. Not ever a fan of sending things back, but our last meal here, our steaks were so overly cooked and over salted. Our server was kind enough to send them back to the chef. The wine selection was somewhat limited but prices were reasonable given it was resort dining.

Breakfast was an option for convenience. The omelette station is great if you prefer a big breakfast and made to order. The breakfast buffet super star were the waffles and french toast. Both were really good and probably the best items besides the baked goods. Bacon and sausage had gotten tough from either sitting long or being overcooked. The oatmeal station could have used some fresh fruit besides brown sugar as toppings.

Just as we experienced everywhere else, there is at least a 5% surcharge due to supply chain issues. Overall, if you are looking for convenience and simplicity, the food is decent but really just take in the view and ambience.

I was very impressed in there fish dish. Cooked properly plus had a nice spicy sauce on it. Most other places don't put any spicy sauces on there fish. Very bland. My wife Liked the chicken also. Would go back the this restaurant
