I came to Dandelion’s on Sunday 5/22/22 around 130ish for Dinner with my parents. Desiree was not only waitressing the dining room, but she was serving as the Hostess and also clearing/cleaning off the tables in the Dining room as well. She had a few small tables including my parents and I, and also one large party celebrating a graduation. Desiree did an absolutely AMAZING job in servicing all of us, not only efficiently but with a smile on her face and with patience with my father who sometimes has trouble hearing in places that have a lot of background noise.The food at this place was delicious- especially the LAVA CAKE- which I highly recommend. But the experience was really made by Desiree- so I am posting this in hopes that her Bosses see it and know what an amazing asset she is to your restaurant. 

Stopped in for a couple beers after golf bar was very busy. Patio was full. Great service from Emily

Service was aweful. Food was delicious. Didn't make up for the horrible service though.

Tried this place for the first time. Only a couple people eating, not a good sign. Had a coupon, buy 1 dinner get 1 free. In small print, it's only up to $12.99. Nothing on the menu close to that price so how do you get a dinner for free??Seated at our table, water glasses were filthy!! Had fajitas, were ok. My husband had chicken marsala. It was made with so much wine, he could hardly eat it. Salt & pepper shakers filthy also!Linen napkin smelled like it was soaked in grease! Backside of the drink menu had some brown, unknown stuff on it!! GROSS!!To top this place off, they put 18 percent gratuity right onto the check!!! The service is something to be desired!!If you want a terrible dinner place, this is the place for you!!!!!

First time there, Awesome happy hour Elizabeth was really good never waited for a drink, her replacement Jessika was just as good. I am going there next Thursday.

My experience with Dandelions was very positive. I had an order of medium wings, fries, and split pea with ham soup. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. The wings were juicy and the sauce was great. The french fries were crispy and full of flavor. The soup was also great and I can't wait to try more food from them. The restaurant was overall nice and the staff was great!

Do NOT go here for dinner. Out of French dressing on a Saturday night, the stuffed peppers were charcoaled they were burnt so bad-- and the charge for pop/soda refills?!? Go elsewhere before enjoying the comedy show.

Had a reservation for 4 on 3/12/22 for 4 at 5:30 and was seated at a table that had been set with filthy water glasses. Server was rushing us to order. She did not offer the nights specials as we had to ask for them. I explained we had never dined there and I asked her for her recommendation between a burger or the hot pepper and steak pizza. She said the hot pepper and steak pizza is delicious so I chose that and asked for extra sauce. When the food was served I had a slice of the pizza and shared it with others at the table. Server never returned to table after we were served but I realized she served us the wrong pizza after looking it up online. When she came for the check I told her it was the wrong pizza and she said" well I put in what you told me" I said I asked for extra sauce and she said " I ordered it that way" so pulled out the receipt and said" no you didn't, you ordered the dandelion and steak pizza which has no sauce." Needless to say...service was lousy. I gave 2 stars for fast seating and friends said their burgers were good.

Dandelions has been around for many years however I have never dined at the restaurant. I was very happy to find that they are and upscale casual eatery with excellent service, excellent food, and a comfortable atmosphere. We ate lunch there at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday and I was surprised to see that the restaurant was not overflowing with people and after eating there it should be. Roast beef was excellent fish fry was excellent and steak and cheese hoagie was excellent. Maybe I hit this gem on an off day as the bills were getting ready to win the first playoff game of the 2022 season or not enough people know about this wonderful place for a bite to eat but I will go there again and this will become one of my regulars.

Great Happy Hour vibe!Samantha gave us great service!We'll definitely be back!
