One of our go-to places to dine. This time it was a party of 8 for Sunday Brunch. Service and food are always good. I like the high ceiling and open feel of the space.

Our party of 6 had just awful service and mediocre food. 30 minutes to get a glass of wine and 30 minutes to get a check. Our food was inconsistent - the spicy avocado bowl was mostly just rice and the steak was over cooked terribly. The hamburger, fish taco, and poke bowl were good. Not sure what has happened to The Daily but it should not take 3+hours to dine. At least have the decency to serve a cocktail in a reasonable amount of time! Just awful.

3rd visit in a row where the food was not good. This place used to be great and something has changed- they managed to mess up tofu- couldn't eat it- and cappuccino was severed like a latte and with stains on the sise of the mig. Potatoes were over cooked and croissant was cold. The bacon was good- not going back again.

Appealing Carytown venue. Indoor/outdoor seating; we chose indoor and were seated in a booth adjacent to the bar. We chose The Daily because I have celiac disease and the restaurant advertises an array of gluten free options. Both of us ordered pizza (mine Gf); they were outstanding. I had a cocktail, and we both drank wine. Altogether a great evening. We’ll go again next time we’re in Richmond.

I remember The Daily as having exceptional food, but taking out of town guests there for sunday brunch was just mediocre. The diced potatoes had no seasoning on it and were bland and not crispy. The avocado tomato omelette had tiny bits of tomatoes and the scramble tofu was creamy, not crumbly. I doubt I'll go back for brunch again.

Truly disappointing. The service here was abysmal. Our party of five went for Saturday brunch around noon. We were patient and understanding with it being such a busy time, but our server would be gone for long stretches of time. We had to remind her twice of multiple things missing from our food order and consistently having to request for drinks/water needing refills (every time for drinks). We could see other servers hustling and keeping up with their tables, but ours was frequently missing and honestly dropping the ball at every interaction with no apologies or recognition that she was continually messing up. It’s difficult to write such a review because I really try to be empathetic as a former server myself, but there’s really no excuse. Food was okay (except the burned chicken panini which was not good), but not worth the price or frustration of such poor service.

We arrived early (5:30pm) to the Daily Kitchen and were seated quickly. Happy hour was still open (!). We ended up getting Guac, calamari and crab cakes. Both the calamari and cakes were very over salted. The calamari was too breaded and over cooked. The corn side with the crab was obviously processed and not from scratch. The green beans with the crab were fine. Regarding service, since they were slow, the waiter was more chatty in the back than checking on tables. We probably sat for five to seven minutes with empty wine glasses at the edge of the table waiting for him to return for another round. And when the bill was processed and returned for a signature, the pen would not write - that cost % in tip because he never returned.

I have eaten at The Daily many times with pleasure, but yesterday's meal was poor. I ordered the chopped salad with salmon. The salmon was fine but the greens were wilted and browning, the avocado was actually brown with a few green flecks and several of the cherry tomatoes were on the verge of spoiling. The worst part was that I had taken two guests, one of which also had the same dish and experience.

Went for brunch, moderately laid back establishment. Got the honey pizza and the two eggs and bacon, food was fantastic, hot. The pizza was absolutely astounding, and cheers to the waitress who didn't bat a lash when I ordered 2 shots of tequila at 9:45 am.
