This wasn't our first trip to Daisies but definitely not as good as our previous visit. Food was good but not exceptional and waitperson was extremely indifferent to our table. The rest of the staff brining out food and filling water were kind, attentive and helpful but I felt like we were bothering our waitperson. Almost never spoke to use after we ordered, and just dropped the dessert menu on the table without saying a single word and they breezed by to attend to another table. They were definitely "friendlier" with other tables but overall food came out in a timely manner and with no issues so I guess everything was fine. Just wasn't an experience that makes me want to go back and recommend to others.

Fabulous from top to bottom. Outstanding food and outstanding bakery. Excellent wine and beverage choices, phenomenal service and such a lovely and warm atmosphere. There is a reason it keeps getting recognition.

In the past several weeks I've been at Daisies for three different meals -- dinner, lunch, and brunch. Each time felt unique, and each time was super special. The food at Daisies is unbeatable, spectacular, and yet the ambiance and service feels so generous and humble. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago.

Probably some of the best food and service I've ever had. No notes 10/10 Service 20/10, thanks Teaghan!

This place is a cozy spot that puts a fresh spin on seasonal ingredients. The pasta dishes are especially well done, but the whole menu feels creative and thoughtfully prepared. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff makes the experience even better. It’s a great choice for a relaxed dinner that still feels special.

Amazing vibe. Staff was friendly and explained the menu to us in depth. Incredible food - especially the roast chicken which took an hour for preparation but totally worth it! Strongly recommend. The desserts were finished in no time - Nothing like it! Crisp on the outside, and we could tell they were just out of the oven. Ravioli and gnocchi were one of the best I've had. A bit pricey but overall, amazing experience. Stronglu recommend.

I had such a wonderful experience dining here. Every single dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. The service was just as impressive. The staff was attentive, kind, and very knowledgeable about the menu. They consistently made sure our table was tidy, provided fresh silverware and plates for each course, and truly elevated the whole experience.
My personal favorite was the Agnolotti pasta. It was unique, flavorful, and unforgettable. From start to finish, this restaurant exceeded my expectations and I can’t wait to come back.

Made in House is the best summary of daises. From the soda’s to the chips to the pasta itself. Everything is made fresh and unique which gives the classic foods a new flavor.
It's a warm and inviting restaurant that highlights fresh, seasonal ingredients. Their house-made pastas stand out, and the flavors feel thoughtful and well-balanced. The atmosphere is cozy yet modern, making it a great place for a relaxed dinner or special night out. Service is attentive without being rushed, which makes the whole experience even better.

Daisies completely exceeded my expectations. The pasta was the star of the night — incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of vibrant, balanced flavors. You can really tell how much care goes into every detail; it felt elevated yet comforting at the same time. Honestly, this was the best pasta I’ve had in Chicago, hands down.
The atmosphere was warm and inviting without being too formal, making it a great spot for both a casual night out and a special occasion. Service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall experience. If you’re a pasta lover, Daisies is a must-visit — it’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back and try everything on the menu.

We ordered the green salad, shishito peppers, papperdelle with mushroom ragu, the lamb pasta dish, and some ice cream/sorbet. The salad was good and the shisito peppers were very average. The papperdelle was above average and the lamb pasta dish was slightly below average. Melon sorbet was very good and roasted vanilla ice cream was good. Overall an underwhelming experience. Portion sizes are huge. We could have ordered two or three dishes between the two of us instead of four. What really annoyed me though was the automatic inclusion of a 25% service fee. I mean I would have thought 20% was presumptuous but it was even higher than that. The tipping culture in the US is just getting so out of control.... just pay your employees a living wage and increase your prices accordingly (although I already thought the prices were high for the experience). The 25% service fee really left a bad taste in my mouth so I would definitely not recommend this restaurant. Not worth it.

A bit loud and not the coziest venue.
Everything else is perfect and could probably not reasonably be improved upon with infinite time and effort.
Absolutely delightful.
