    Everything we ordered was excellent! Our server, Kayla, was spot on with her recommendations and describing items we asked about. The homemade "Ruffles" and onion dip are a definite get! As is the asparagus panzanella salad. Everything else was wonderful. Other than our server, Kayla, all the servers and wait persons were attentive and really nice ... looking forward to returning to Daisies.

    The food was really very good. Two of us visited on a Saturday night and there was just one other table occupied. While we were at our table for over 90 minutes, no one else came in! Our drinks and appetizers were served quickly, but we had to wait for our entrees. And when we were done eating, obviously ready to leave, we had to wait for our check while the owner/waiter was talking on the phone. The food and value are very good - one would think this restaurant would be busier.
