Everything about this place was great. We stopped in on a Friday evening before a concert and the vibe was very inviting. The mixologists were just thee best. We will be back. The A.Y.F.K.M cocktail is the best, must

One of the best happy hours in the city!! Also got the dumplings and they were delicious. Will definitely be back. The AYFKM drink was so good!

This is a great spot for a quick drink and bite before dinner. They have NA drink options for those trying to stay clear from booze, but that still want to sip on a nicely crafted cocktail. The staff is very friendly and will definitely make sure you get exactly what you want.

Very cozy place! The staff was very nice. Will definitely be going back. Parking was a little difficult because it's limited street parking around the building.

Dragonfly is all decked out for Christmas with a special holiday cocktail menu. It is really cute and the bartenders were dressed up too. They were able to adjust a few of the drinks to mocktails but they still charged the same amount as an alcoholic drink fyi. They drinks are expensive (about 15$ apiece) but they were also really delicious and not too sweet. There is some street parking and a parking lot next door.

No food available. We each had a drink on the rocks. Every drink is $16 or more. Ours were $16, with tax $32.86. BUT, they automatically add 21% tip. Two drinks poured into a glass, (no 'craft' here) for a total of $39.68. This is getting ridiculous! No choice in tip amount and $16 a drink?!The space is 'meh.' (metal stools and tables); we went once when they first opened and, since then, they've really increased prices. They tried over dressing up with Christmas decorations which didn't upscale it at all. We won't be back, that's for sure.

Decided to go to Dragonfly after seeing that its sister restaurant, Freya, was more of a tasting menu and that's not something I'm a fan of. I was not disappointed by Dragonfly!The happy hour is awesome with great deals on cocktails and on food. I attached a photo of the menu. Our drinks were delicious with a ton of flavors.We split the hummus, which came with fresh, warm pita bread. I don't like beets so I avoided those, but my wife said they paired really well with the hummus. I then got the chicken sandwich, which was actually two sandwiches that were pretty good size, and she got the walleye.Everything had a ton of flavor, and the atmosphere inside the restaurant was really cool. Can't wait to go back!

Was headed to upright but dipped in here instead. Cool bar, non-pretentious. The have a lite food menu. Rib tips w/rice 2-stars. Extremely salty. I poured my drinking water in it to make it palatable. Short rib fritters were good 3.5 stars. Both the booze & mocktail I had were great. 5 stars. A good place to stop in before or after dinner.

Wow! just great. I kind of feel bad for Dragonfly, to me at least, it seems like they get tied to Freya and are maybe an afterthought. I have been to Freya and had great drinks that came from Dragonfly but this was my first time here. Great Space, Great People and Great Drinks along with tasty food. I will say that the Happy Hour is fantastic with deals on lots of drinks and food.The drinks are well thought self made cocktails that are tasty, you can also get your standard cocktails as well if you wish. the staff is friendly and knowledgeable and one of them rides a cool old school Honda Shadow(so She Rocks!). Great space with local artist on the walls to make it even better.

Fun little spot we arrived early. 8:30 ish. The place is small but decorated simply and elegantly, clean-lined and modern. There were only two females at the bar which was great since we had the whole place to ourselves. This is definitely a craft cocktail and creative bar and food destination. Tonight we just started out with drinks. I had the a drink called "La Vida de Lazarillo". A tequila based drinks with specked pear, turmeric honey, carrot, mango and lemon. Clearly not a dive bar it had creative twists and turns. It was refreshing and very palatable. My friend had The Dragons smile". It was gin, strawberry balsamic and chartreuse foam. This was a sweeter drink and she loves it. The place is moody and would really be a great place for a date night. They serve food which also looks creative, modern, edgy and palatable. The waitress said they had a great happy hour also. The tan was $32.00 and they included the top which seems to be a thing now that places are doing. Not bad for a new drink experience. We were bar hopping so it was a perfect start to a night in the town.

Such a YUM place that is so casual and understated, while being just such a beautiful space for catching up with loved ones over a few delicious bites and drinks! Dragonfly provides the drinks for Freya (located next door in the same building) and Freya's chef makes the food from Dragonfly, so you are guaranteed the best of both worlds, but at the significantly lower price for bites and sampling from their entire a la carte menu at Dragonfly.The menu will rotate in a few new dishes from time to time, but some of their best here are their salmon cheese (they give you so much of it and I still wanted to lick the plate clean) and the mussels (also such a generous portion and FILLING!). We tried their mushroom dumplings and their fried chicken sliders as well, which were both also so so good, albeit a tad underseasoned. But I truly wanted to try everything on the menu and will be back soon to do a new permutation of the dishes they have to offer! Their menu is ~10 items so it's super manageable to process and order from!As for drinks, I know that this space is predominantly a gorgeously set up bar, but as someone who doesn't drink I can't speak to the drinks on this menu other than I have tons of friends who love coming here for drinks - and especially for happy hour when they have amazing deals on both their drinks and food! I love that they had a whole mocktail section with very unique offerings that I've never seen before! I tried two drinks off their mocktail menu and both were so good - although I can't even remember what either one was! Will definitely be back over and over again to enjoy the bites and sips here! Love Dragonfly!!

The food was great and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. I tried the whisky sour cocktail and it was good, better than a lot of other places that I had it at. Will definitely recommend the place to my friends and family.
