I ate at Daniel 3rd of July as part of celebrating my 30th birthday in New York. I am used to eating out at nice restaurants and happily spend money for a dining experience. Now for restaurant Daniel. We reserved a table one month ahead and got a table in the sofa part facing the rest of the room. It... more

I do not understand how this restaurant can get away with terrible food, tiny portions, and high prices. I was there with my wife last Saturday night for dinner. She ordered the Chilean sea bass which looked like two pieces of burnt bacon. She said it was inedible. I had the beef, which was okay, but served in a portion... more

Food is not bad but the tasting menu portion maybe a little bit too small for guys. However good for ppl on diet but want some gourmet once a while. But I still like "The Modern" better more

Daniel did not disappoint us. From the moment we whisked through the revolving door into this enchantingly elegant space to the moment we reluctantly left four hours later, we were treated... more

We had a tasting menu.I know its french food so smaller portions are expected and welcome for someone who generally likes portion control. For $150 I would expect to walkout full. But I didn't. The food was ok. I have been to much better for the price. if you like paying lots of money and then having to buy a... more

My wife and I dined at Daniel this past Friday. Everything was perfect from the food, wine pairings to service. Its a bit of a splurge but if you can afford it, it was well worth the money for us. more
