We’ve eaten here a few times, and each experience included our server going among the missing. Drinks take a long time, some missed. No extra water poured after all was gone. Where’s our food. Where’s the wine we ordered, etc. Waiting a long time for the check. The ambiance is wonderful and we enter hopeful that service will meet the same level, but it hasn’t. It’s the opposite experience from Daniella’s Cafe and Pellana.

Daniella’s has been one of my faves Andrew it opened. I’ve always said their Chicken Piccata was the best on the North Shore. However, last night it was nothing like it usually is. Chicken was so overcooked. I’m hoping this was a one time thing because I’ve had it a million times and never has it been like that. The atmosphere and friendly service make up for it. But the big shout out truly is to Yanni. We ALWAYS love when he’s there. If you watch him work, you will see his service and friendliness is toward everyone. He goes out of his way to be helpful, make you feel special and makes a great drink. He’s truly an asset.

Have enjoyed Daniella's Cafe in the past. Could not get reservations there so, we tried Daniella's Ristorante. Same menu but not the same experience.. Daniella's salads (3), our favorite item, were wilted. Nonna's Sauce was dry and pasty. Shrimp scampi was good. Wine was good. Tiaramasu was large but flavor was weak.

There were a few issues during this dining experience. First, there were several flies/fruit flies flying all around us during our meal. Two fruit flies actually were in my old fashion drink. the waiter apologized and made me a new one. I had to keep a napkin over my glass for the rest of my meal. Secondly, my veal chop was a bit fatty. I did not complain about that. i’ve had the veal chops before and they were much better. The bill came to 454, a bit expensive and a bit disappointing. Overall, KR

We went for our 24-year anniversary and were concerned about the volume others mentioned. Being able to talk is very important for my wife and me. However, going on a Monday night at 6:15 worked out very well for us! The food was excellent -- but even better was the staff! Everyone from the hostess to the waitress to the busser was accommodating and caring. They encouraged us to take our time and enjoy! I don't know that my wife and I have ever been treated this well while dining. I truly can't say enough about them. Honestly, we did feel the music was a little odd for the atmosphere (felt like a techno rave beat in a classic Italian restaurant) and briefly, it was a bit too loud. But it was adjusted without us saying anything. We WILL be returning, and are happy to recommend to others!

Always a lovely lunch at Daniella’s. Our meal started with lightly breaded and delectably crispy calamari with feta and marinara sauce. It has become a must to order each time we come. Delicious and complimentary garlic bread helped soak up every bit of marinara sauce. My main meal was the Daniella Salad sprinkled with an ample amount of pistachios and dried cranberries mixed with crispy lettuce and Gorgonzola cheese all dressed with their signature vinaigrette dressing. My lunch mate ordered the grilled salmon placed on a bed of pesto pasta. This was the third lunch at which they ordered this dish. I think it says it all! The service at Daniella’s is always friendly and very professional. Their atmosphere is casually elegant and a most inviting place for both lunch and dinner.

I think Daniella’s is a step up in quality, value and ambiance over the already very good original Daniella’s in Danvers. It’s also bigger and easier to get a reservation.

Hostess & Host were welcoming & efficient. Server, Paul, was attentive & friendly. Now the food & beverage: Beverages, which were listed on their drink special’s menu & were martinis, 3 of the same were inconsistent in color therefore taste. Another one did not contain an ingredient which had been discussed. Two from the second round, were sent back to be altered or re-made but were only shaken with new ice crystals on the rim. Both were again returned only to come back & this time re-made but terribly. For the 1st time in over 10 dining experiences, the food was sub par. So between the food & beverage I do not expect to return, unfortunately. The beverage issue has been an issue in 3 other experiences, but the food kept us coming back till last night’s experience. Very disappointing & hard to comprehend they are the training ground for their sister restaurant, Polanas.

Got the scallops and they were on the bitter side. The risotto was just ok. Other person has to send her dish of eggplant rollatini back because it was too salty.

We come to your Daniella’s establishments quite often. Last night we had the pleasure of having our favorite Hostess “who is now our favorite server” take care of us, Alicia! Alicia is so perfect on the tables, very well spoken, knowledgeable of the menu, wines, everything. She dotted her i’s on the whole experience, requesting to have my lobster dish shelled in the kitchen, suggesting we order an extra meatball app so we each had our own, to being fully informative on choosing the best Chardonnay. She explained which wine flavors were sweet or dry, which pasta cream sauce flavors were the best, she was just on point through the whole meal. We can’t wait for our next visit. Bravo Alicia!! Smart move becoming a server, you are top notch. See you again soon.

The food was excellent but it was soooooo noisy my friend and I could not carry on a conversation. Beside the noise from the customers, the music was very very loud…….That caused the whole dining experience to be unpleasant even though the food was great.
