    A thoughtful thank you on the container!

    Surprise surprise!!! My expectations for Chinese takeout in the Howland area were very low... but I am pleasantly impressed with the food and the thoughtful way it was packaged for delivery. The paper bag had a cardboard placed in the bottom of the bag to stabilize it and keep the food from dropping out the bottom! I appreciated that touch very much. And.... when I removed the food containers there was a little pink sticker saying THANK YOU! Everything was properly done and juicy, Our Human beef and chicken lo mein were very good, meat looked like real meat and both chicken and beef were tender. The veggies crisp and generous. Our pork egg roll was dense and full of vegetables.... though I didn't see the pork... the crab Rangoon wrappers were a little too chewy, but we received a good portion of sweet and sour dipping sauce... overall ... the best Chinese takeout EXPERIENCE... in the Howland area. I highly recommend trying it out!

    I was in the area for business and this restaurant was in walking distance from my hotel. The area…read morehas a mall and plenty of chain restaurants nearby. The restaurant appeared to be clean and for a week night there was a decent crowd. I was pleasantly greeted by the hostess and my server was also very friendly. I typically have to be in a mood for a seafood boil but I had eaten at the same restaurant 3 days straight and wanted something different. I played it safe and did the snow crab and shrimp boil in a garlic butter sauce that was very tasty. The corn and sausage were also good. I washed it down with a cold Stella. Overall I have no complaints and would eat here again.

    The restaurant was clean, and our server was super sweet and attentive. The appetizers were great,…read morebut the seafood boil itself was just okay. I've had better seafood boils in Maryland. My boyfriend and I weren't really into the King Cajun Seafood Special Sauce. I usually go for house special sauces since they're usually good, but this one just didn't hit the spot. We ordered the hot spice level, but it wasn't spicy at all, and the sauce had this creamy taste--maybe they added flour or cornstarch to thicken it? I prefer my seafood boil sauce to be zesty and spicy. We ended up ordering a side of Cajun garlic butter sauce instead, and that was way better in my opinion. I also wish I had asked for a side of lemon slices (my bad), it would've made the flavors pop more with some extra zest and tang. One thing I really liked about the restaurant was that their seafood sizes were enormous! The shrimp and crawfish were jumbo-sized, and the Dungeness crab was packed with meat. Oh, and a heads up, when we ordered extra corn, we thought it would be three cut pieces, but I think it was actually three whole corn cut into thirds. So yeah, no need to order extra corn unless you really love it. We ended up leaving with a whole bag of corn. I guess that will be my lunch and dinner for tomorrow.

    I don't say this lightly...this is the real deal…read more I'm originally from South Florida, and I've spent time in Jamaica, so I'm very picky when it comes to Caribbean food. I've had a lot of "close enough" over the years...but this? This is authentic. This is the kind of food that makes you pause midbite and just nod. Dalia's isn't your typical restaurant, and that's part of what makes it so special. It's set inside what feels like a home, and when you walk in, that's exactly the experience...you're not just a customer, you feel like a guest. It's warm, personal, and genuinely welcoming in a way you just don't find in most places anymore. And I have to say...everything is spotless. You can tell she takes pride not just in her food, but in the space she's inviting you into. And she carries that same care into the food. I've been here multiple times, and what impresses me most is the consistency. You know how some places wow you the first time, then slowly fall off? Not here. Every single visit, the food has been just as good as the last. That alone is rare. Now let's talk about the oxtail... Fall-off-the-bone tender, rich, deeply seasoned...but perfectly balanced. Not overly spicy, not bland...just enough heat to remind you you're eating proper Jamaican food. And unlike a lot of places, you actually get meat here. Generous, satisfying portions that feel like someone cooked this for you on purpose. The rice (and yes, it's seasoned beautifully...more like a classic Caribbean rice than traditional peas and rice) is the perfect base, especially when you ask for a little extra of that brown sauce over the top. Trust me on that. The cabbage has a nice little kick to it, cooked just right...not soggy, not raw. The plantains? Sweet, caramelized, exactly what you want them to be. And I have to mention the mac & cheese because it surprised me in the best way. Creamy, with a perfect cheese pull, but not heavy or overwhelming. It's balanced...comforting without being too much. One of the things that really stood out to me is the quality of the meat. I actually asked her about it, and she sources locally from a farm...which explains a lot. You can taste the difference. Also, pro tip: call ahead. Her food is fresh and made with care, and she does sell out. I usually let her know what day I'm coming and what I want, and she's always incredibly accommodating and kind about it. The first time I came, she even gave me a sample plate with a little bit of everything...and there wasn't a single thing on that plate I wouldn't order again. This place isn't just a restaurant...it's an experience. It feels like sitting in someone's home, being fed with pride, skill, and love. Honestly? It's a hidden gem, and places like this are getting harder to find. I'll be back again...and again.

    Great food, very kind people, and a memorable experience. Quite a surprising find in Youngstown of…read moreall places

The service is always impeccable. You never have to beg for anything. The servers are well trained. They come around regularly to fill drinks and genuinely care if you're having a good experience. Sadly, that type of service has mostly vanished most places. We had a wonderful female server. I unfortunately can't remember her name. She was upstairs yesterday with brown hair and a pony tail. Now to the food. They have a fantastic menu so you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My family and I have tried all kinds of things and loved them. It's our go to for celebrations. We started off with the fried artichokes which were crispy and delicious. They reminded us of the ones we had in Rome last year. My mom and I had the lemon pasta with shrimp. It was unbelievably good. You got tons of shrimp and the pasta was soft and melted in your mouth with the lemon. My husband loved his wedding soup and chicken Milanese. His family is Italian so he's hard on chicken cutlets. He said it was crispy and moist. It looked amazing but I didn't snap a photo since I was hungry. My cousin loved her eggplant Parmesan. She's also Italian and has been to Italy several times. That's her go to dish. It's always cooked perfectly. My other cousins got spaghetti and meatballs which they loved. The meatballs are huge and perfectly cooked. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. If you love Italian and know what good pasta is supposed to taste like, go to Leo's. Your stomach will thank you.

Your shoes stick and make noise the whole walk to your seat. They were clean, but somethin ain't right!

My goodness! My lips/gums were burning from the spice BUT the flavor was extraordinary and enjoyable despite my sensitivities LOL. The mild ones were perfection and flavors meshed well together. BEST CHICKEN & FRIES EVER! Kickin Bourbon (maybe SBR's?) were very fun and exciting on the palate. Definitely have that bourbon taste present and spice level was beginner friendly. The Soy Garlic were also delicious, it seems this was the "mild" sauce that was on the Fried Dumplings per my tastebuds' thoughts. Parmesan Truffle Fries had that perfect crispy thin outer shell and meaty inner potato heaven. Truffle level was satisfactory and not lacking (but could always do more).

Chicken Ball Pho (& added mushrooms) was delicious & a great way to warm up! The bean sprouts were fresh & crunchy, the thinly spiral-sliced jalapeño was kickin', and all of the flavors just mesh wonderfully. I've only had Pho one other time, and I can say that this place blows the other out of the water. I'll be spicing it up next time with some chili as well! I also got an Earl Grey Milk Tea (who is he anyways?) that came with cold foam on top and it hit the spot too. I'm a sucker for milk teas of all kinds, usually with tapioca pearls, but this was just as good all alone! The Crackling Pork was a last minute decision after I finished my bowl of Pho.. I just simply couldn't contain myself in seeing what it was like, being a pork cracklin / chicharrones connoisseur, I had to try! The crispy outer edge was perfect, and then you've got a layer of soft fat on top under the skin, and some meat under that. Went out of my comfort zone on this one since I'm not a huge fan of chewing fat, but it was delicious! I'll probably get it in my Pho next time. Had two different servers, one of them sat us and then came back to take our order and then another one helped us the rest of the night. Very friendly! My only tip is that they should check on the table more, they quite literally give you your food and leave you alone until you're done, which would stink if somebody needed something! I'm not knocking down a star because some people don't like to be bothered and you can always grab someone that's walking past because they are constantly moving around.
