3 for dinner last night (1/2/26). No reservation - walk-in at 7:30pm. We were seated promptly with no wait. Ordered Bruchetta appetizer was good but was too heavy on the balsamic and it overwhelmed the other ingredients. I ordered the veal … More

The atmosphere is probably awesome if you reserve a table. We were from out of town and the website doesn't tell you reserving a table is preferable. So we got seated around the bar area, high top table which is tight quarters and I can't … More

Tracie and I had a highly satisfying dinner. We started with a charcuterie appetizer that was meticulously prepared, featuring an extensive variety of gourmet goodies. It was a meal in its own right. I selected Fettuccine Alfredo, accompanied by Blackened Chicken. Tracie had a pasta seafood meal she enjoyed as well. More

We’ve been dining at Daniel’s for 25 years, and the food is so good I forget to snap a pic. Authentic cuisine, generous portions and service that goes beyond. It can get very busy, so I’d recommend a reservation or visiting during off hours. Try the Zeppoles! More

Friends had spaghetti with meatsauce which were large portions and delicious. I ordered the eggplant parm sandwich that I previously had was delicious, but this time it was delicious, but a bit skimpy with the portions. The portion was … More

Great pizza, thin crust with thick crunchy exterior, chewy interior edges. Just right amount of toppings. Great side salad with the option to add additional toppings for an up charge. Veal Parmesan was tender, noodles cooked perfectly, simple marinara sauce. All accompanied by their tasty focaccia. More

Phenomenal meal at Daniel's tonight. Enjoyed the food so much last Saturday I came back today and brought guests. The spicy shrimp puttanesca did not disappoint. The spice pushed my limit. Shout out to Keith for the great service and taking care of us. More

calamari + sauce was probably my favorite thing i had. the bread was decent, but typical of any other bread you would get. the salmon with dill was very good. the acidity + lemon taste is definitely very strong, though, which was nice. the pizza was decent, and the desserts are large. More
