    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.

    Just had a lovely date night here to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The filet mignon we ordered was tender and delicious, but the sides (whipped potatoes & brussels sprouts with truffle aioli), appetizers (raw tuna with kettle chips, clam chowder with bacon) and dessert (chocolate cake with ice cream & fresh whipped cream) were every bit as delicious. I loved the fact that the chocolate cake was both moist and chocolatey (usually only flourless chocolate cakes have enough chocolate flavor). The service was very gracious and friendly. I also appreciated that the restaurant wasn’t too loud, and we could enjoy a conversation without shouting at each other, unlike a lot of other restaurants with fantastic food that try too hard to be hip. A wonderful meal and night out!
