that'll do
Acceptable for now
That'll do signals acceptance or sufficiency—something meets the minimum standard, even if not perfect.
It can express genuine satisfaction That'll do nicely or dismissal that further effort is unnecessary That'll do, thanks.
The phrase often carries a note of weary approval or the sense that something is adequate without being impressive.
