The service was fantastic and very accomodating for me as a vegetarian. My boyfriend and I went there for the Valentine’s day menu and it was delightful. I loved our server Kylie who was the sweetest and nicest person there. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The food was nice and the cocktail I had was delicious. Will definitely be going back there.

Dailo is always delicious but this time we did winterlicious with a group of 4 - the waiter was smart about it and pre-emptively suggested everyone "ordering" a different item, but brought it out in portions enough for everyone, so that we ended up being able to eat the entire menu! Great value! Would definitely do it again.
