some of the best food I have had . highly recommend eating here
My fiancé and I dine here regularly, however after our dining experience on 2/15/26 we will not be coming back here. We were sat almost immediately, but waited about 35 minutes to even be acknowledged by waitstaff. It took us asking two different hostesses for a waiter before one finally came over. After ordering or drinks and food, it took about another 45-50 minutes to receive all of our food. Mind you, multiple tables (at least4) that were sat after us had been taken care...read full review

Dao Restaurant | Chinese Cuisine is a popular spot known for its delicious food, friendly staff, and inviting atmosphere. Customers often praise the quality of the dishes, especially the sushi, which is beautifully made and tastes great. The Sunday dim sum is a unique treat that stands out, offering flavors you can't find elsewhere in town. Many visitors enjoy the large, tasty rolls and the good portion sizes, making it a satisfying dining experience. The drinks, including house wine, well drinks, and the BOGO happy hour specials, are also appreciated. Attentive service contributes to positive visits, and the quiet environment makes it a nice place to relax alone or with friends.
However, some issues have been noted. A recurring concern is the consistency of dishes like Coconut Curry chicken, which the restaurant sometimes serves with vegetables and spice despite specific requests to avoid them. This has caused disappointment, especially for elderly diners who cannot handle spicy or chewy foods. Additionally, recent reviews mention a decline in sushi quality, with some rolls now tasting less fresh and more like grocery store options, and a feeling that the focus has shifted more toward cocktails than sushi. Overall, Dao Restaurant remains a good choice for good food, drinks, and a friendly staff, but some guests feel it has changed over the years.
