608 Dahlia

What a great treasure hidden inside Sherman Gardens! It's $5 entrance free per person- which we weren't aware of but it was worth it.The gardens are beautiful and the restaurant is cozy yet spacious! The food is a masterpiece- beautiful and tasty! The biscuits are a must have. We had great service by Will! Can't wait to go back.

All the food is wayy too rich!My daughter put it best...." I neverthought a salad could be rich."The quiche was crazy rich. You'll gain a good 10 pound eating here!The menu is extremely limited. You should bring out flavors nor mask with soooo many ingredients.We will pack a nice gourmet lunch and sit in the courtyard in the future.

Bad service, menu options extremely limited with average tasting food at above average price. They don't have alcohol other than that fake wine based soju cocktails.In addition to all that the restaurant sneaks in tip included in the price. They waiters don't mention it at all then when you receive the receipt they have columns starting at 18% for additional tip. This is such a predatory scummy practice that most people won't catch especially if English is their second language. The server could have politely said "just a heads up tip is factored in the price already. If you want to add more then there's a section for that. Just overall bad experience.I DO NOT RECCOMEND

This restaurant is nestled into the Sherman Gardens property. You have to pay garden admission to dine. The gardens are beautiful and blooming and 30 min is sufficient to walk about and explore the various zones. The salad portions are super generous. We split the Harvest salad and really enjoyed it. The biscuits were next level and we understand the hype, it's legit! The short rib was one of the best we've had at a restaurant but we split this too and the portion of meat was tiny. We wished we had more. Lovely afternoon. Have the biscuits!

Really cute spot inside the Sherman gardens, chairs had pillows and blankets, very cozy relaxing vibe. Service was fine, we were seated later than reservation time but it was ok. I got the Dahlia salad and added salmon. It was huge, I couldn't finish it, and really drowned with dressing. The salmon was fresh and overall a good dish. We also got the biscuits and they were delicious! I would recommend visiting for an early brunch and then strolling the gardens after. It's small but really great for a little neighborhood spot.

Had the biscuits , mushroom pasta dish, and the fruit drinks (alcoholic and non alcoholic). Surrounding gardens make it a good date option. Def going back

What a lovely Valentine's Day dining experience in the beautiful Sherman Gardens during our mother-daughter weekend! We all enjoyed our dishes - salmon, dahlia salad, and the quiche were favorites. Service was excellent, and the chef came by to make sure we enjoyed our meal. Can't wait to come back!

Super cute garden, fantastic food and drinks!The service is spectacular as well.We had reservations for Sunday brunch which was much needed.We got Mimosa, famous Biscuit, Dahlia Salad and Steak!Very fresh and tasty! You cant go wrong with any item on the menu!Oh btw we loved our server! He was very professional and helpful!

Another amazing lunch on a cool autumn day. The decor is so pretty. The menu includes a few specials including asparagus soup and ahi tuna. Our server was very attentive and friendly and always wonderful to see Chef Jess mingling with the guests. She is doing an amazing job.

Dine in a beautiful garden. The food at 608 Dahlia is delicious, and they rotate their menu seasonally, so the food uses high quality ingredients, some of them picked from the chef's garden. We first ate here after exploring Sherman Library and Gardens, as it's located just inside. Service is so friendly here, and they take time to explain the dishes to you. When it came time to plan our wedding, we had a tasting, and everything was amazing. It was so easy to work with Emily - she's always on top of it, responds quickly to our questions and requests, and is so personable and friendly to talk to. We really love the wildberry spritz (lavender drink) that we had before, and they were willing to add it to our cocktail menu for the wedding. They work with a rental company for renting all the furniture, silverware, etc. and Emily managed all of the logistics with rentals and taking into consideration our preferences for colors and styles. We had a small family medical emergency at the wedding, and Emily was the only person who checked in with us after the wedding, which was super sweet. We also met Chef Jessica Roy a couple times, and we have nothing but good things to say. On our wedding day, the food tasted even better than the tasting, and everyone was raving about the food. I was curious about the chef, since from my experience, it can be tough to maintain a high quality standard for food that is served to tons of people at the same time. This can't be an ordinary chef. It turns out Chef Jessica Roy has an impressive background - prior chef at 3-star Michelin-rated Alinea and she's been on Food Network competitions. You can definitely see the thought and care that she puts in her food and plating. So grateful that we had such a humble and talented chef for our wedding. Thank you, Emily and Chef Roy for a lovely and unforgettable wedding and a fantastic meal!
