Blah are my feelings toward Dakota. I'm happy a new spot has opened up and the decor/renovations are beautiful. I actually loved the inside but the food wasn't anything amazing and my latte was $5 and a small. We went for breakfast and had the place to ourselves which was fun but I guess I was hoping for better food. If they had an all you could drink brunch special like RnR, I would likely go back in the morning/brunch time. I'm sure I'll give Dakota another shot and hopefully the chef can impress then.
I also think it looks like it could be a fun bar for the night scene and I would be open to going back then!
