Had our anniversary dinner here. We chose the 5 course dinner and it was great. Food was delicious and service was amazing.
If you have a small appetite like my wife, 5 course might be a lot. She was full by dessert. All of the dishes were amazing.
The server was great and provided good recommendations and later gave us a quick tour of the kitchen.

I recently visited with my sister, Tina Stewart, who has raved about Daniel for quite some time — and now I completely understand why. From the moment we arrived, the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional.
The wait staff was absolutely top notch — Zach, Matt, and the bartenders all went above and beyond. Attentive, knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely kind. You could tell they take pride not only in their work but in the experience they create for every guest.
The food… there truly are no words. Every bite was incredible. Flavorful, thoughtfully prepared, and clearly made with passion. Getting the opportunity to see the kitchen was an added bonus and only deepened my appreciation for the care and skill that goes into each dish.
It was an amazing night filled with outstanding food and even better people. Experiences like this stay with you — they aren’t just meals, they’re memories.
Until next year, I wish you all a fantastic year ahead. This is an absolute must-go place. If you get the chance, you owe it to yourself to have this experience at least once in your life. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic service and overall meal for an upscale lunch. The staff was attentive and kind. The courses were a bit hit or miss for this level of Michelin star for me but overall a wonderful experience. The main courses of lamb and buffalo were stellar. I HIGHLY recommend the wine pairing. That was the highlight for us. It was fantastic wine and brought the food to the next level. Overall a lovely experience. I’ll mention most men were wearing jackets even at lunch time though it is not required.

Going to Daniel is a tradition for me and my husband. With all do respect, as much as we enjoyed the previous visits, this time left us disappointed.
Everything from the very start was off and not to the standard of a Michelin star restaurant. Things like missing napkins, dirty water glass, delay on getting stool for my purse, and inability to have enough time to go over drink menu was an unpleasant start but gave an idea of what to expect.
Talking about food is subjective but this year’s menu is unremarkable, inconsistent and questionable quality. One of the amuses had caviar as garnish. Left me feeling like I was drinking fish juice. As a caviar connoisseur – this is not something that you should taste. Beet tartlet could not hold all the moisture from ricotta and beets and was literally falling apart. Since it was also served on the bed of green buckwheat, I left quite a mess, to say the list.
Scallops were tasting fine but very oily and greasy. Mushrooms were supposed to enhance the umami flavor but the amount of oil killed the purpose.
Halibut is something that I had to send back due to how salty the dish was. They remain it and put the spice on the side. It took care of an issue but ruined the experience.
Bison was delightful – juicy, tender, perfectly cooked.
Now as for dessert. It was the worst part of the dinning experience. Almost every dessert had some sort of mousse in it. Flavors were not delicate and appearance was amusingly eye bothering. One of the desert was a heart with matcha and jello. It looked like a huge blub of something that you may get at the discount store.
In all, the highlight of the meal was cognac, bread and meat. The experience left me unsatisfied and $1400 lighter. Would probably be better off with in room service and a new pair of shoes.

I recently visited Daniel in New York City and experienced their tasting menu, and the entire evening was truly exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the service was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. The staff guided each course with genuine knowledge and attention, making the meal feel effortless and perfectly paced.
The tasting menu itself was a remarkable journey. Every dish was beautifully presented with meticulous detail, showcasing refined technique and bold yet balanced flavors. Each course felt intentional—textures, colors, and tastes coming together in a way that showed the kitchen’s skill and creativity. The ingredients were clearly top-quality, and the transitions between courses were thoughtful and harmonious.
The wine pairings elevated the experience even further, complementing each dish without overwhelming it. The ambiance of the dining room added to the enjoyment—elegant, serene, and polished without feeling stiff or overly formal. It created an atmosphere where you could relax and truly savor every moment.
Overall, my experience at Daniel was extremely pleasant and memorable. The tasting menu was refined, artful, and satisfying, and the impeccable service made the evening feel special from start to finish. I would gladly return for another celebration or fine-dining experience.

Dining at Daniel is always an unforgettable experience, and last night’s Chef’s Menu reminded me once again why we return to Chef Daniel’s restaurants so often.
Every single dish was a masterpiece, beautifully plated, thoughtfully crafted, and bursting with exquisite flavor combinations that are truly unique. It’s impossible to choose a favorite because each course was exceptional in its own way, both in taste and presentation.
The entire experience felt refined, balanced, and remarkably harmonious. You can feel the passion, creativity, and precision behind every creation.
We frequently visit Chef Daniel’s various restaurants, and each one has its own signature charm.
Thank you for an extraordinary evening and a gastronomic journey we will always remember. We look forward to coming back soon. ✨

We had a solid experience at Daniel. We did a five-course prix fixe menu. Each course came out perfectly. I enjoyed the seeded bread and our server packed up 6 pieces for us to take home – I was pleasantly amazed. On top of that, we were invited for a kitchen tour, which made the evening even more memorable.

We went four our anniversary. It was a really special meal. The staff was charming, gracious and attentive without being overbearing. The food was delicious. Well worth it.

I finally had the chance to dine at Daniel for my birthday and we opted for the 5-course prix fixe menu.
Canapes: Excellent start. There was a uni bite I really enjoyed, though I wish I remembered the rest—it all went by quickly but set the tone nicely.
Maine Sea Scallop Carpaccio: A solid beginning to the courses. The scallop paired beautifully with grapefruit—fresh, light, and delicious.
Warm Seafood Fricassee: This one was interesting. It came with small pieces of snail, octopus, squid, mussels, a SINGLE small pieces of lobster, and scallop. The seafood itself was great, though the sauce threw me off—it had a peanut or nutty flavor that didn’t work for me (personal preference, since I’m not a fan of nutty sauces). The squid was also a little chewy. Funny enough, while I was jotting notes on my phone, the waiter came over almost immediately to check in and even offered to replace the dish. I appreciated the attentiveness but decided to keep it.
Black Cod: Served with caviar and beluga lentils. The texture of the fish was tender and cooked well, though slightly bland.
Pennsylvania Duck: Perfectly cooked—medium and tender—but I wasn’t a fan of the olives embedded in the duck or the pecan sauce, which I felt didn’t complement the dish.
Mekonga (Dessert): A dark chocolate dessert with coconut milk jam. I didn’t get much of the coconut flavor, but overall it was a solid, well balanced dessert.
They also served freshly baked madeleines at the end, which were decent but not particularly memorable. The chocolate piece with gold flakes looked pretty but didn’t taste special, and the mini coffee macaron was a definite miss for me.
At the end of the night, they invited us into the kitchen for a quick look. It was a kind gesture, though there wasn’t much to see—nice touch, but not particularly rewarding… meh…
Overall, I’d give Daniel a strong 4 stars. The service was exceptional—though it did slow down once the restaurant got busy, and we ended up waiting almost 30 minutes for dessert. Still, it was a great experience overall. A few dishes could use small tweaks. But, solid

Daniel is absolutely one of our top picks overall. We had the 7 course tasters experience. We enjoyed everything! The food, the drinks, the service, all excellent! After a great dinner, we really look forward to a special desert. Daniel supplied all kinds of delicious sweet little goodies that we absolutely enjoyed. I also must note, which is important to me, the table & chairs are very comfortable. Everything was exceptional. Daniel did not charge any hidden fees or service & admin charges like some other restaurants that we’ve been to. Nor did Daniel charge us an automatic gratuity charge. Now that’s what I call good business! Thank you! We will be back! Daniel is very worthy of its Michelin star!
