I’ve been a bunch of times.

It’s really wonderful!

So are the pastries in the am.

Succor was a crossword clue last week and thus it made sense...:)

Loved daisies in it's previous iteration (was my first post covid dine in restaurant). Can't wait to try it in it's new digs.

Just an FYI, if you fold the service charge into the menu price the customer pays tax on that. A separate line item is actually better for the guest.

This makes sense and that’s certainly an advantage for the customer.

Absolutely agree. My son and grandson and I had our Easter dinner there this year and we’re pretty much blown away. All of us enjoyed our meal immensely!

What a timely review. Interestingly enough, I just booked a reservation at Daisies. It was relatively easy to get into, unlike some restaurants where reservations only appear to be available after 9:00 pm. Monteverde comes to mind. Anyway, was happy to see pictures of some of the enticing plates you experienced, and they look shareable? Not that I like sharing my food, but most restaurants seem to be of the “shared plates” model these days. I’m wondering if you tip on top of the service fee? Maybe a token amount? It’s nice that Daisie’s is upfront with the fee and you have to sign off on it. We have been at several restaurants in town where that fee is kinda hidden (in plain sight) on the bill but we haven’t noticed because, well, we’ve had a few drinks and tipped on top of it.

Agree. I hate the “hidden” or “unexplained”. It’s absolutely shareable. They say you don’t have go tip but yes for sure nice if you want to.
