you gotta get the cauliflower !!!…read more we made a reservation for friday night and it was pretty busy so i assume it was needed. very elegant casual place. skinny wine stems but flavorful and good portioned food. the cauliflower was the favorite. the whipped ricotta i could've loaded on more because there was so much in the jar! we also got the what bucatini but it was very wheat forward (i know that sounds silly but) i would suggest a different pasta dish . great dishes staff and ambiance !

This was my first time at this restaurant, and it was a pleasant experience. The ambiance on the…read morepatio was lovely and the staff was attentive and friendly without being pushy. My son and his girlfriend have been there many times, and insisted we get the whipped ricotta appetizer and kale salad. Both of these items were top notch, as were the cocktails and we enjoyed. The pasta bolognese that the ladies ordered was delicious. My son had the burger and fries, and it was fine, just not very special. I ordered the "half" chicken, thinking as a bird themed restaurant, the only poultry entree would be a star, but that was not the case. A small thigh and half of a breast was their interpretation of a half chicken, and this was noted on the menu, but the portion was disappointing. The dish was supposed to to be accompanied by polenta with trumpet mushrooms, but two paltry slices of mushroom with a small smear of polenta completed the dish which "artfully" only occupied the left half of the plate, leaving the rest of the plate bare. Small portions aside, the dish was overly salty, to the point I had dry mouth the rest of the night, and the chicken was overcooked. The taste was fine, and the little bit of polenta added enough moisture to make the dish work. The worst thing was the incredibly dull dinner knife that couldn't cut through the mushroom, let alone the chicken, causing me to apply the stab and pull/tear method to get bite sized pieces. Everything thing else was superb. I would go back for the cocktails and appetizers, perhaps grazing the appetizers and a salad as a dinner. The pastas all looked terrific, but I will probably steer clear of the four mains on the menu, as they seem to be the least inspired items to order.

This had me feeling like a kid on a milk carton because I've been missing out! The service was exquisite. We were greeted and wished a happy anniversary upon checking in. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us understand what we might like based on our preferences. This spot had more seating than I anticipated and there are tables that can accommodate large groups. The aesthetic was giving industrial whimsical bookstore. They also had the jams pumping but not so loud that you couldn't have a conversation. Now for the food: - Homemade ruffles and sour cream and onion dip: This was a must get in my opinion. - Simple green salad: I feel like I can trust that Daisies doesn't source their produce from Taylor Farms, so we felt safe ordering. Man oh man I didn't know how much I needed this in my life. The dressing and the cheese were unmatched. - Mushroom Tagliatelle: Thebomb.com. You can taste the freshness in the pasta and the ragu was so savory yet not too heavy. - Summer seasonal pasta with sweet corn, jalepenos and cheese. The pasta was stuffed and had a delectable cream sauce. It was simply perfection. -1/2 chicken: Simply put this may be the best damn chicken I've ever had in my life. To think we were almost going to skip a protein and get another pasta but this was so good. I don't think words can do it justice. We had to get dessert because we knew that their pastries get a lot of praise throughout the city and beyond. We ordered the sourdough waffle topped with peaches and pecans.

No training, no greeting, just 'what do you want to drink' ok. Very rudimentary service. A colleague and I both got the lasagna, hers no meat, mine with meat. We were served the wrong ones. Because there was no meat in mine, I assumed that maybe the sauce had meat until she pointed out that hers was full of little bits of grey looking meat inside the pasta. That said, the meat was not preseasoned or flavored so she could only tell by the texture so too late to complain when you have eaten a third of it, so we did not. It was ok, but I would not return there for the lasagne. The restaurant was not crowded, 6-9pm. They were not too busy to give good service, but service was rudimentary, basic, not particularly polite either, waiter made it clear he was annoyed at people arriving separately and later separate checks. All of us have worked in service industry, none of us were difficult, no one wasted the waiters time by saying stupid stuff, or being indecisive, or sent anything back or complained. Friends pizza had artichoke, she asked me to taste it, it was incredibly salty, a few of us tried it, everyone agreed the restaurant should do something to change that. I told her to let them know, it was horribly salty. The bills came, with the option to pay electronically via the toast app, auto gratuity for 'large group' of 20% was added to each. There were 9 of us in the end, 8 ate food and one just had 2 beers. My bill had automatically added another 20%, I had to show each person how to remove that Extra 20% that was added, (a 40% tip is Not it) we all just paid the 20% large group grat; total tab was around $345, waiter made 20% so at least $70 tip from our table - for taking the order, delivering one round of entrees and mostly one round of drinks. We were there for 2 hours. Lots of empty tables around us. It made me realize how great I was as a server back in the day, and how being made to feel welcome affects whether you would return to a restaurant.
