Restaurants near Elston Park

Our first time dining at a Ukranian restaurant although a guest will be familiar with some of the foods from other eastern European countries. The cocktails were creative but not overwhelming, however, the variety of "infusions" (vodka infused with herbs or fruit) was great and fun. Enjoyed the horseradish infusion to sip on during much of the meal, and a cherry infusion later. It's easy to share all of the courses. The appetizers are shown to guests on a cart. The roe tart was very tasty as was the egg with tarragon mayo and sardine. We also had a bread basket, fresh pickles and rolled eggplant. One could make a meal of an infusion and a variety of apps. A highlight was the duck, borsch soup with a side of garlic rolls. We subsequently enjoyed a creamy lasagna-like dish, side of kasha and potato pancakes. For dessert, we enjoyed a yummy multi-layer spice cake. Service was good although not flawless - and did not prevent us from having a great meal.

Daisies was phenomenal all around for us. The service, ambience, food were all on top notch. We had the rigatoni, stracci, the potted carrots, and the onion dip. It was honestly some of the best pastas we’ve ever had! The appetizers were also excellent. We will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu.

Beautiful light coming in the large windows that face south. Was not too busy for Saturday brunch (maybe because it was Thanksgiving weekend), and the service was excellent. We both had the breakfast sandwich and added bacon and avocado. It was really delicious. Mine came with a kale salad that was surprisingly good and my daughter had the fruit which was very fresh. Also had the monkey bread which was a small portion - perfect since we were already stuffed.

Briana helped us, she was our server and bartender. She was pleasant and made good drinks. CheSa prepared the food and she came out to greet us afterwards—such a personable touch!

We wouldn't miss our Valentine's day tradition at White Caste for ANYTHING! Love to see some of the same staff members year after year.
