Dilly Dally is a restaurant that offers a mix of opinions. While some dishes, such as the Caesar salad, are praised, others like the watery salad receive more mixed reviews. The prices may be steep, with a single meatball and half a salad costing nearly $30. However, the restaurant's friendly service and whimsical design elements help make up for some of the shortcomings. The lasagna and shrimp cocktail are popular choices, but the restaurant may not be suitable for families with young children.
The restaurant's atmosphere is described as a blend of "Coming Soon" (quirky, diverse art, fun light fixtures, great furniture, table settings) and a cool bar, with a down-to-earth and attentive staff. The food is generally well-received, with the bread, Caesar salad, meatballs, trout, and skirt steak receiving positive feedback. The meatballs are particularly praised for their softness and decadence, while the mains are described as well-balanced and delicious.
While the $30 burger may raise some skepticism, the restaurant is said to be doing "all the right things." The brunch experience is also highlighted, with the breakfast plate and homemade grapefruit soda receiving praise. Overall, Dilly Dally seems to offer a unique and diverse dining experience, though the pricing may be a concern for some customers.
