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!

We had a fabulous time at our dinner. While we thought our empanadas were delicious, the steak flight for two was the highlight, along with the pisco sours. Our sides (we got asparagus and the truffled fingerling potatoes) were very good, but I will probably explore others on the list next time we go. But how could they shine next to the steak? We were there on a Saturday night when they had live music, and that elevated the whole experience to be super vibey and extra fun. We had churros for dessert just to stay longer and enjoy, and they were also delicious. We will definitely be back!

I hesitate to let everyone know how fabulous Eden is, but that's a bit selfish. EVERYTHING on the menu (and our group ordered a lot of different items) was perfectly cooked, creative and layered with flavor. The service, as always was outstanding, the cocktails were delicious and everyone seems committed to making sure you enjoy the evening (or lunch or brunch).
