We had my daughter's birthday, and we loved every moment. Service was faultless, food was delicious, plate presentation was 5 stars. It's reasonably priced. It was our fault in ordering one dish, yet it was replaced with a smile at no cost to us. Really appreciate their hospitality, service, and meal quality. Well done all staff.

Delicious caprese salad and puffed flatbread. Iced oat milk flat white was delicious, and somehow tasted better in their stylish glass! Options to sit inside or outside.

Decent dishes with reasonable price, the mushroom risotto was cooked to perfection and generous amount of oyster mushrooms! The grilled swordfish with eggplants was absolutely beautiful too 🤌🏻 Will definitely dine in more often in the future! 😍

The menu was off-putting because of the range - can they do all that well? But look at this beautiful Neapolitan-style pizza. This 'Piccante' pizza tasted as good as it looks. Keen to sit down and try more.

I haven't had a bad meal at Dawson, they're great for brunch, lunch or dinner. I like their pizzas and the Mac and cheese entree was small but crunchy in the most perfect way. I have to say the creativity of their desserts was sad to see gone on my last visit. Also while I will go there again without doubt, I doubt I will go for the pasta as my companion was not full at all after their Cacio E Pepe. I would also suggest a more refined and subtle Sticky Date Pudding topping could make it more enjoyable, I found it too sweet and I usually like reviewing desserts the most. The other options didn't sound very interesting, but. maybe I'll give them a go. Service was attentive and helpful and good at their roles even the really young staff did very well.
