About

Dandy operates as a sophisticated bistro that emphasizes the intersection of artisanal culinary techniques and market-driven ingredients. The interior design reflects an industrial aesthetic characterized by high ceilings and expansive windows that illuminate the open dining area. Menu offerings focus on elevated classic dishes, featuring thick-cut sourdough toasts topped with seasonal produce and house-made ricotta. The kitchen consistently utilizes fresh, locally sourced components to construct balanced plates that favor structural simplicity over complex plating. Patrons experience a lively atmosphere where the focus remains strictly on the quality of the prepared food and the functionality of the workspace. This establishment balances the casual nature of a market-inspired café with the technical precision of a focused bistro kitchen. Every element, from the beverage selection to the curated seasonal vegetables, demonstrates a commitment to ingredient-led preparation methods.

Waited 35min for pancakes when the table that arrived after us got their food, finished & left by the time we received our food. The waiter definitely made a mistake but didn't even apologize, instead the front door guy did (kudos to him).
When the food finally got to our table, we realized that the entire restaurant had their food except us & another couple which arrived before us & also didn't get their food (from the same waiter). We returned the pancakes to the kitchen because waiting 35min for pancakes made no sense & we had to another appointment.

We brunched on April 3rd at 10am & the waiter was wearing a Kaws shirt. He saw that we were getting impatient & didn't rush the kitchen nor apologize. I loved Dandy but this was a disappointment.

Not only was this the best breakfast I've had on this trip, but it was the best meal overall. Delicious food, friendly & kind waiters, & the atmosphere was lively & fun but not overwhelming. We got the ricotta pancakes, fried chicken sandwich, & side of smashed potato fingerlings. Every single item was superb! I'm going to be dreaming about those pancakes for weeks. The chicken was soooo tender. Everything was seasoned perfectly. Highly highly recommend. My only regret is not finding this place sooner during our trip so we could come here more than once!

Loved the pancakes, sausage, & salad. The endless summer we don't love, it's nice but missing a wow factor.

Après avoir entendu de très bons commentaires sur ce lieu, j'en ressors un peu déçue. La carte mentionne des options low gluten à côté des pancakes, pourtant il n'est pas possible de les préparer sans gluten. Très peu de choix sans gluten (le granola, le petit déjeuner & un brownie). Le service a été très lent.
