    Waiter explained things well. We had a terrific family style meal that exceeded our expectations. They were flexible on adding another person at the last minute.

    Food absolutely delicious, service outstanding and ambiance lovely. The only recommendation would be to dampen the noise level. Echo from other diners conversations.

    I always have a delicious meal at Delara; today was no exception. The service, as usual, was most attentive. The restaurant over a 3 hour lunch period was full, obviously a popular spot and with good reason. As prices go today, Delara is good value.

    Food experience was great. Tried their family style meal and it was a great selection for tasting the menu. The service was excellent and the servers were very well educated on the menu and answered any questions we had. We were there for a milestone celebration and the team made extra efforts in recognizing that. The only negative thing I'd have to say is specific to that one evening. There was a table of a large party seated in the centre of the restaurant that very loud and disruptive. All the surrounding tables felt the tense and awkwardness of how obnoxious the party was and how it made the ambience tense having to yell at the person across you to hear them speak. The odd thing is the servers knew that other tables were tense and feeling this and didn't mention anything to this large party. A suggestion would be to seat a party like that in a separate area such as the cove at the front so its more enclosed so the rest of the place isn't as effected.
