Introduction

About this Restaurant

Firefly at Pedrito’s, a classic Goan Bistro Bar located enroute Benaulim Beach, offers classic Goan feast and merriment. An amphitheatre styled family owned Bistro Bar, Firefly is an infusion of an urban and casual ambit that creates a pleasant and relaxed venue for guests. It is a place where flavour is uncompromised by generous helpings and where casual elegance means incredible service and friendly people.

The Food

For something entirely refreshing, choose from Firefly’s list of modern portions and vintage libations, which have been carefully crafted as a reverent celebration of Goan culinary tradition. Expertly prepared by our chef, it features classics, prepared exactly as they should be, yet with an artistic flair that is entirely refreshing. Firefly strictly serves authentic Goan and Continental food. Guests may try the chicken liver pâté with toast and prawns tossed in butter and garlic from the Continental menu. Or go local and savour authentic Goan delicacies like Fish Ambotik, Vegetable Caldin, Prawn Curry Rice with accompaniments such as Kismur and Tambdi bhaji. Poie with sausages and garlic, and barbecued pork are favourites here.

The People

Donovan Vaz, a true Goan, manages the restaurant and the legacy liquor business. Established in December 2012, Donovan diversified into restaurant and lounge with Firefly. The name and the logo is inspired by one of the brands of their family business Cazulo, which incidentally means ‘firefly’ in Konkani. The entire team at Firefly have made this rustic place into an enthralling and an enchanting hub with great food and music.
