Nestled just off Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach, Dada is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience. Housed in a charming historic home, Dada immediately captivates with its eclectic art installations scattered throughout the outdoor space. Dining here feels like stepping into a whimsical art gallery, making it a feast for both the eyes and the palate. If you have the chance, definitely opt for outdoor seating to fully immerse yourself in the unique ambiance.
But Dada isn’t just about the atmosphere; it’s about the food. And let me tell you, they truly deliver. Of course, knowing what to order is key to unlocking the full Dada experience.
We started with my absolute favorite: the Starving Artist Grilled Cheese Sandwich, served with a steaming cup of tomato soup. This isn’t your average grilled cheese. The combination of perfectly melted cheese and the rich, flavorful tomato soup is a guilty pleasure that’s impossible to resist. The soup is simply perfect for dipping, creating a symphony of flavors that sets the stage for the rest of the meal.
Next up was the grilled cauliflower. Now, I’m not typically a cauliflower enthusiast, but Dada’s rendition is a game-changer. The sweet chili sauce elevates this humble vegetable to new heights, creating a delightful balance of sweet and savory.
For our main courses, we indulged in the crab cake and the meatloaf. Both dishes were exceptional. The crab cake was delicate and flavorful, while the meatloaf was hearty and comforting. And let’s talk about the mashed potatoes that accompanied the meatloaf – they were simply divine. Every bite of both dishes was fresh and bursting with flavor.
It’s rare for us to have absolutely no complaints about a meal, but Dada exceeded our expectations in every way.
To make the Dada experience even more rewarding, I highly recommend using the InKind App. It offers a 20% credit towards your next meal at participating restaurants, making Dada an even more irresistible destination.
Dada in Delray is a must-visit for anyone seeking a unique and unforgettable dining experience. With its artistic ambiance and exceptional cuisine, it’s a true Delray gem.
