My friend and I had a fantastic experience at Daisies last night! I moved to Logan Square about four months ago and this restaurant came highly recommended by so many. The ravioli and the rigatoni were absolutely divine! So wonderful to have this gem just a few blocks away. Highly recommend!

You can always count on Gibson’s for a quality steak in a fashionable location. I was dining with a friend you had a short term dietary restriction. Our server, Lee, said they had nothing on the menu to meet it but he promised to check with the kitchen. Lee returned with the item, from a nearby restaurant, so our entire party didn’t have to change locations. Outstanding service!
