Daniel is the quintessential upper East side restaurant - stuffy and pretentious, but with good food and good service, just not good enough of either to warrant the price. The food we had was quite tasty, and there was a lot of it for sure (we were bulging by the end) but nothing better than what we've had many times... more

Don't mind spending a fortune for excellent food. Spent more than a fortune for moderately good french food and a waiter that argued with my vegetarian daughter when she said she tasted seafood in the sauce of her vegetarian dish. It was pasta with sauce, they charged $90 for it, they could have boiled dried pasta and sprinkled parm on... more

We decided on Daniel based on the menu, and to see just what a 3 Michelin Star dining exeperience was like. We enioy fine dining quite often and were very much looking forward to our dining experience. We did have a very nice night overall, but left feeling like we didn't need to return. Service was very professional as expected,... more

What a lovely restaurant. The decor is very calming and the staff are all very attentive and knowledgable about the product they are selling. The food was very well presented and tasted fantastic. The restaurant was very busy but you still were under the impression that you were the only customers who mattered due to the attention paid by the... more

Although the dining room was packed, we felt as though our dinners were specially cooked just for us--and they were! Service is impeccable and the food combinations are exceptional. The preparation and attention to detail are unsurpassed. This is a wonderful dining experience and just what we wanted as we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary! thank you to Daniel and... more

Tries to convey an aura of exclusivity. Expected the atmosphere to be elegant, but it turned to be too pretensious. Food is probably slightly average nothing exceptional. If you are interested to burn $300 or more per person this is the place for you. Crowded with middle aged people and foreigners who may dine there so that they can simply... more

Exceptional experience from start to finish. Wear a jacket, dress up, and get ready for a high level dining adventure. We had the six course tasting menu, plus wine (a glass for each course), and were basically blown away. It actually ends up being 10 courses, since they give you three amuse bouche and an extra dessert when we mentioned... more
