From the OpenTable editors: From the food to the ambiance, DaiLo is bold and buzzy. Chef-owner Nick Liu blends French cooking techniques with his Chinese heritage to create playful dishes while showcasing serious culinary chops. The hip space attracts a lively crowd for nights that begin with dinner at DaiLo and end at its upstairs cocktail bar, Lopan.
Executive chef: Nick Liu

FAQs
Yes, DaiLo is a popular choice for date nights and anniversaries, praised for attentive service and memorable tasting-menu experiences that many guests celebrate as special evenings.
DaiLo can feel lively on busy nights, reviewers note late-night bar activity, while other visits found the dining room or patio surprisingly quiet and less than half full.
DaiLo feels like a teal‑and‑gold Asian brasserie with eye‑catching decor and very attentive service; it's inventive and convivial, though several guests note it can be noisy and the upstairs area sometimes feels more casual or less polished.
Casual dress is the guide, comfortable, not formal, and entirely appropriate for a visit to DaiLo.
Yes, families are welcome: multiple guests report dining with young children (including a 3.5-year-old) and say staff treated their kids beautifully, even bringing a little sorbet for the child.
