The food is mediocre at best. The Salim were the most enjoyable. The daurade was ok with little taste served with limp asparagus and flavorless potatoes. The chicken schnitzel was fine but not outstanding, served with over salted undercooked French fries and an ok Israeli salad that was overdressed. The lemonades at $9 were overpriced, as were the entrees. The service was fast, and you got the impression that their whole purpose was turning tables.

We love Dagon and don’t get there often enough. The only negative thing I can say is that it is TOO LOUD!

Food is consistently good but menu has changed and is less creative and unique. Main criticism is that food is served quickly.Your waiter has to put in entire order at once . So you have a decent one hour meal but not as leisurely as you might like. Service is good.

The food and service was excellent. We always try to eat outside because the inside noise level makes conversation difficult at dinner time. So we were happy with just dealing with the occasional loud bus or truck.

I absolutely love the restaurant. The food and service are fantastic. I truly wish the music were not so loud because it makes it hard to hear at times otherwise a perfect meal.

They were understaffed during Sunday brunch and our party of 7 waited nearly an hour and a half for food - believe our order wasn’t entered initially - they were kind and comped some of or items, but there were several seniors and one child at the table so it was an unfortunate experience.
