| - After a night of heavy partying we were in much need of some food. We were hitting the road that day and our friend suggested we check out Daily Dose. Well it being a Sunday Daily Dose was packed. We were in a hurry so we decided to check this place out after reading the yelp reviews.
At first sight I was a little off put by the place. Compared to the restaurants around it the ambiance was really lacking. There was also the, I'm assuming, owner standing outside pressuring people into coming to his place.
Being hungover, hungry, and ready to get on the road we decided to eat here. The menu looked good enough. We sat down and mulled over many choices. I ended up deciding to get one of their breakfast sandwiches and a lemonade. My first disappointment was that the lemonade was that minute maid crap which never tastes right. My friends all ordered iced coffee and got hot coffee poured over ice, which they were all not too happy about. Already I was feeling like this wasn't going to be that good.
The sandwich came after much waiting and it looked good enough. I found it to be ok, a little bland, and definitely nothing special. I couldn't distinguish any of the flavors of tomato, avocado, or the pesto. The egg was also a little on the well done side, and not light and fluffy. Everyone else seemed equally as meh'ed as I was at their dishes. On paper they sounded great but in reality, not so much. It didn't help that it was burning hot outside, the drinks were getting warmer by the minute, and there was little relief from the sun outside. Looking over at the Daily Dose we saw people eating outside covered by a balcony that had misters, sigh.
The sandwich also came with a salad that was drowning in non descript brown sauce. Not yummy, and not needed with breakfast.
The service was also good, but a bit scattered. It was a nice enough French lady but she seemed over eager to share with us and constantly flustered. The breakfast took longer then I would have liked and I never felt really comfortable.
I know I wasn't the only one too. A pair of girls walking by got stuck at a table after the scary man outside convinced them to sit down after they asked if there was a bathroom. The girls kept telling each other they should leave because they didn't want to eat, but the man was there and they looked at him timidly. I would suggest that this place not have their scary owner, or whoever he is, outside trying to drag customers in. It frightens them away and doesn't make them feel welcomed.
Will I come back? Probably not. Next time I'll make some extra time in my schedule and have a peaceful, cool breakfast.
