Great restaurant, fantastic food. All the reservations are already taken before they open up on the open table app, even if you check at midnight (reservations usually released around 12:10 AM). I suspect you have to know someone to actually get a seat at the dining room, have been unsuccessful several times waiting up until reservations are released.

Staff, food, ambiance… everything was perfect. We were lucky enough to get 2 seats at the counter overlooking the kitchen. The ballet was spectacular with all those chefs working together. We had an early reservation and when we left, we could see that it was a trendy place as lot of young preppy looking were coming in. I highly recommend 🥰

My friend and I had a fantastic experience at Daisies last night! I moved to Logan Square about four months ago and this restaurant came highly recommended by so many. The ravioli and the rigatoni were absolutely divine! So wonderful to have this gem just a few blocks away. Highly recommend!
