    Happy Hour is a great way to enjoy the tacos and some drinks for less! Bang for your buck, indeed! The service is always attentive, prompt, and warm. The staff are friendly and we’ve never had to wait for our food/drinks for more than 15 minutes even on extremely busy nights. Great atmosphere with pleasant music without being too loud and disruptive. One of my favorite restaurants in the city! Will continue to dine here for sure!

    Darling is fairly new to Edmonton and they have the cutest room and all natural wines. We came for the $2 dollar oysters on Tuesday and they did not disappoint. Must try: sourdough bread, cabbage salad, steak and croquettes! Brunch is always amazing as well!

    Had a fun evening at Dolly's. Greeted and seated promptly. Our server was friendly and personable, very helpful explaining the menu and Christmas specials. Checked back with us throughout the meal to see if we needed anything. I ordered the martini, my husband ordered a Seachange beer. Drinks were pricey but good, the martini was tasty. It had a side of prosecco that looked huge because it was in a glass with a false bottom, would have been better if served in just a regular glass. Still, the drink was good. Food arrived quickly, I ordered the spaghetti. The spaghetti itself was very flavourful, a good sized portion with prawns, sausages and a tasty sauce. The only downside was that both pieces of garlic bread were obviously burnt. It was exchanged quickly upon request, just wondering how it got sent out in the first place. My husband ordered calamari, it was a good sized portion, but there was no dipping sauce, I'm used to seeing a side of yoghurt or something for dipping. But, the dish was very good. The atmosphere was fun, the restaurant filled up quickly with happy people. The restaurant was fairly easy to spot with the pink curtains, but an outside lit sign would have helped. Good evening, would go back.
