    We have been waiting to come to Daisies for a few years now, and we're finally able to pull the trigger during restaurant week. Every. Single. Thing. We. Ate. Was. Amazing! The highlights are of course their handmade pasta dishes, each bite of which was like being in pasta heaven. We were pleasantly surprised by the starter squash salad and the olive oil crumb cake as well, though the standout dessert was their tiramisu. As Daisies has a seasonal menu based on the produce that comes from their partner farm, we will absolutely be back another time to try whatever they have to offer.

    My family & I met for dinner before going to a theatre down the street and Emma did a fantastic job taking care of our table. Emma new we had a time restriction, and she made sure everything was brought to our table on time. The deep-dish pizza was so good! Highly recommend Lou's!

    The dining room and overall space are beautiful and instagram worthy! The cocktails left a lot to be desired (the espresso martini was incredibly over sweetened). My chilaquiles were good along with the melon and prosciutto. The rest of my party enjoyed their brunch choices as well! I still have a bitter taste after seeing so much plastic water bottle waste but we have not ruled out a second visit. I hope to see the switch to filtered tap water.
