The Daily PlanetVery accomadatingEating a vegan diet isn't always easy at restaurants. They were able to alter their main meal to make it vegan friendly. Very understanding staff and awesome group of people to make you feel welcome.6/15/2013 12:00:00 AMGotta Try It!Second time I've been to The Daily Planet. I love when a restaurant is TAKING CREATIVE RISKS. These guys are THINKING and have a great menu with reasonable prices.
I took business associates there for dinner. Everyone loved it. Great place because the food is good but it also speaks to being a Vermont business. Great for guests from out of state.6/12/2013 12:00:00 AMRestaurant called to confirmRestaurant called to confirm reservation. Table was ready when we arrived. Smaller menu, but very nice selections of differing sizes and food types. Nice presentation. Service was slower, but we were not in a hurry, and had a table of 8.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMDaily Planet is a sure thingWe've enjoyed many delicious meals at the Daily Planet. It is among the 3 or 4 restaurants that we choose from when coming to Burlington for an evening event. The food is consistently very good and creatively prepared. It's especially convenient to be able to book a reservation online and for a smaller size party.6/6/2013 12:00:00 AMwell prepared foodThe menu is small, but has variety, and the food is well prepared. The salad Nicoise was very good, though perhaps a bit under-dressed. The pasta primavera had a good variety of vegetables, a nice sauce, and the added shrimp were cooked properly.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMalways goodalways a good bet. interior looks better than ever and the staff was very attentive and pleasant. food was very nice and the place was very animated. We'll be back.5/26/2013 12:00:00 AMDaily Planet , the good, the badThis restaurant serves good food with something for everyone. The decor is pleasant, two separate dining rooms one of which is a lovely atrium and a bar that is separated from the eating spaces. This time the service was sketchy. The waitress "forgot" to put our order in and we had a performance time to make . She was, however, friendly and attentive otherwise so this was probably a rare mistake. The walls are brick with no carpeting or curtains which tends to make the main dining room noisy. Great location in the middle of downtown Burlington on a quiet street. I don't believe there is a space for outdoor dining. My main complaint is the noise but I do return to the Daily Planet at least two or three times a year.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMA fun eveningWe enjoyed eating at The Daily Planet while visiting Burlington. We were happy to be seated in the dining area away from the noisy bar. Our food was delicious (pea soup, spring salad, filet special, chicken) and our waitstaff was friendly and efficient.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMWe enjoyed a wonderful Mother'sWe enjoyed a wonderful Mother's Day diner with the kids. The food and atmosphere where excellent.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMBack on the radar!Hadn't been here in ages, but was lured back by local Restaurant Week. Of the several places we tried, this was hands-down the best. The ingredients were fresh. The sauces were subtle and enhanced rather than hid their flavor. The desserts were superb. I will not let years go by again without enjoying what The Planet has to offer!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMRestaurant was a lot of fun,Restaurant was a lot of fun, fresh farm to table local products used.
