| - I had a dozen girlfriends in town and we decided to go to Dandelion Market for dinner. We were seated upstairs, and the atmosphere was nice- sort of dark, not fancy or anything, but just nice enough.
Since there were so many of us, we decided to order the menu item that includes every single tapas plate on the menu. I honestly think everyone should find a dozen of their closest friends and do exactly this, so that you get to taste everything on the menu instead of having to choose!
The food was absolutely amazing. When the plates started coming out, all of us were getting basically a bite of each plate. And we're looking at each other and thinking "uh-oh. This is never going to work". But then some of the plates are coming out where you're getting 2-4 bites. And then, 25 plates later, you're absolutely stuffed with truly fantastic food. The lamb lollipops were amazing, as were the scallops, flatbread pizzas, the cheese board, the mussels (a LOT of mussels!), the steak. I had ZERO complains about the food.
The service was good. I wish there had been a better way of staging the items, because it started off with a slow trickle, and then at one point we were just slammed with plates- there was no way to keep up with them!
I guess the wine list and beer list is good. I don't know. Someone else ordered all of our wine, and I don't get really picky when it comes to fermented grapes.
I would recommend Dandelion to anyone. Personally, I'd have a hard time coming back and only getting to choose a few plates. For around $25 per person (plus booze, of course), I thought the "try everything" option couldn't have been better. Will absolutely be coming back, as soon as I wrangle up 10 friends to go with me.
