Dahlia is going to become one of the most go to cafes of Islamabad because of its cute ambiance and great food.
We decided to give it a shot and it was a great experience, service was very good and staff was cooperative.
We tried their Gouda Fest Smash Burger which was actually good and way better than my expectations.
We also tried the over hyped Whipped Ricotta Pizza but in my opinion it’s overpriced and over rated, it had too much pesto but the bread of the pizza was great. It was good but I would prefer Burger over it.
Overall its a cute cafe that you should definitely visit.

Good pizzas and burrito bowl and steak is okay too. Nutella french toast not recommended at all. Doesn’t have any bit of nutella in it.

As soon as Dahlia opened their branch in Islamabad, I had to try. The waiting line was long, and I wasn't expecting that much crowd anyways if the owner could place one fan outside for the ppl waiting, it would be great. Coming to the food, ordered Detriot style pizza, Marrakesh chicken & Gouda smash burger. The pizza was so good. The Marrakesh chicken was okay, could have been better, and the quantity of rice was little. The burger was good, but I have had better. The bun could have been better though.
The place was jam packed, will be trying desserts some other day. But overall it was a good experience.

Good atmosphere, good service, great food. I have visited twice now. The Whipped Ricotta Pizza is great value and taste. The best dish by far would be their winter addition truffle linguine. Their steak was cooked to just the right temperature, the sides with the steak could be better. Frutti di Mare and Garlic butter prawn skillet could do with less butter but tasted good nonetheless. 10/10 would visit again.

Poulet Marakesh (the best one we ordered)
Florentine Fettuccine (sauce was good chicken was a bit dry)

First, calling it a Nursery cafe by keeping few plants in pots is by itself by a misnomer. Place is small and very noisy. Tried three main courses; Marrakech Chicken, Seafood Linguine and Carnival Pizza. Food was ordinary. Carnival Pizza was certainly below par. Tried Lotus French Toast in Desert which was decent.
Overall, doesn’t figure on my return visit list.

What an amazing new eatery in Islamabad. Everything on their menu tasted great! And the service was spot on. I totally recommend their gouda beef burger. The bill for 4 people with 4 main courses, 4 drinks and 1 dessert was under 10k. Which is pretty good nowadays in Islamabad.
