Every bike week we come to dine here at least twice in our visit. The owners ALWAYS get us in even when we arrive last minute. Service is excellent and the food is incredible. It is very cozy and romantic yet you could entertain clients as well! Looking forward to come back in March....The Kellys More

Haven't been there in a while, but the pasta dishes were amazing! I had pasta with a creamy pesto crab sauce. I still think about this delicious dish! The main course I had was not bad, but not nearly as good as the pasta. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Hostess was very pleasant. The atmosphere was nice and quiet... More

My husband and I went to the cellar for a romantic dinner tonight. The food was really good but not as great as I expected. We liked it but we don't think the food was good enough for the price. Service was pretty good and the atmosphere is romantic but not as upscale as I expected. All in all if... More

Our very favorite restaurant in the Daytona Beach area. Everything is absolutely first rate. The food is freshly made, served piping hot and delicious in every way. The staff and service are impeccable...absolutely on task but without unnecessary affectation. The atmosphere is intimate and relaxing with beautiful stained glass windows filtering a nice glow across the dining room. The wine... More

We found The Cellar on Tripadvisor two years ago. We have visited twice now for our anniversary and a birthday. The food is absolutely delicious, the staff is very accommodating, and the restaurant is romantic. We love this place for a romantic dinner. There aren't many places this upscale in the Daytona area. The do take reservations and I highly... More

When we are in town we always try to head to The Cellar for amazing food. Sam Moggio prepares his creations so artfully, and the flavors are memorable as they delight your palate. A three course meal with a bottle of wine from their vast and wonderful wine list will not leave you feeling unpleasantly full. You leave The Cellar... More

We have eaten at the Cellar many times and enjoy each and every experience. Our daughter had her rehearsal dinner there 2 years ago, and we were made to feel so special. Several tables were celebrating birthdays the night (before New Years Eve) we were there, and we all sang happy birthday together! We left feeling like we had made... More

My wife and I dined at the Cellar on December 27th to celerbrate our 20th wedding anniversary. The wine, food and service were simply outstanding! The attention to detail at the Cellar is extraordinary. I had the pan roasted veal chop as my entree and the half avocado filled with shrimp and crab meat salads with a cirturs saffron sauce... More

Five of us have just returned from a wonderful wonderful meal at The Cellar. I was extremely distressed to read the review from whomever it was claiming the place was run by "Hondurans", not certain at all how this would be relevant at all to the exquisite lovingly prepared Italian cuisine we experienced masterfully cooked by a chef (of (Italian...
