What a wonderful way to start a Sunday. The food that was ordered was excellent, well cooked, looking good on the plate, and delicious. A lovely combination of items on the main course that we ordered, that was not big but had wonderful component parts. The service was excellent. There were many other intriguing items the menu as well. Who could ask for anything more.

Dali is a small family-run place. It is just a hidden gem in Sommerville. The food and service were outstanding, we could not have a better celebration of our 2 birthdays. We return to Dali every time we have a chance. Lovely place and very affordable.

Fabulous dining experience for my husband’s birthday. Not only did the staff present us with custom printed HBD menus, but they also brought dessert and cava gratis. The food and cocktails were delicious. Don’t miss the cacio e pepe ramen. Somehow it’s nostalgic and modern all at once!
