Dagim is a restaurant we hadn't tried yet and we saw that the reviews were overwhelmingly excellent. A quick scan of their menu suggested many good options for dinner so we made our reservations. When we walked in at 7:15 on a Saturday night there were only a few people dining (and the space is quite large). We wondered why it was so dead. We looked over the menu and ordered some drinks, an app and the main course. One person had the Mykonos Branzino, which was phenomenal. Another had the Dover Sole which was also stellar. I had the blackened salmon which ranks among the best pieces of salmon I have ever had. A large filet that the moist and seasoned perfectly. We definitely will be back and would recommend. Oh, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely packed with people. Guess we were just a bit early. Excellent meal!!

Had a great time at this location for a birthday dinner. My girlfriend liked everything that she ordered and to top it off it was our first time ever at Herb&Olive. The service was fantastic and everything came out pretty quick.
