Terrific food, a 5-minute walk from the Richardson Hotel. The table next to us recommended the soup and it was absolutely phenomenal. Staff was extremely efficient and attentive. They do not take reservations but we had no problem because we arrived early. Will definitely return!

Nice ambiance and vibe. Waitstaff, bartenders noticeably all helped each other out and worked together well. Food was delicious and service was very friendly, felt taken care of. No wait when I arrived right before 5pm on a Saturday but was very busy by an hour later.

We had Dinner the other evening here, it is a VERY poppin place! They do not take reservations by what it says online so I didnt get a reservation and ended up waiting 20 minutes for a table and a call for our table which we didnt mind in the slightest. It was completely packed and was not slowing down of course being there at 6pm will do that, any way the menu is 100% Italian so if you are not as well educated like I it may be a slight challenge lol. But our waitress was very helpful for my wife and myself. She go lingini in red sauce with beef sirloin and mushrooms added more or less lol.... I got a mushroom pizza both were fantastic. The food is very delicious and well worth the prices. I will definitely go back im the future. I had a few photos of my pizza that had arugula on the top. I did not get a photo of my wife's meal very good over all though please plan for a bit for waiting for a table though cause it may be a second well worth that wait though!.

This place is a hidden gem. They specialize in pasta dishes. If you go, I assure you, you will not be disappointed. My wife and daughter each ordered the Aglio, Olio e Peperoncino pasta. This is the second time they have ordered this because it is so good. I had an arancini appetizer and then the French onion soup infused with beef tenderloin. I have had French onion soup many times this is hands-down the best I’ve ever had. Our server Etta was very friendly and did a superb job. Highly recommend you try this place.

Self-control goes to die at Daniela’s… Second visit and still no regrets—except maybe the lack of willpower. The penne melanzane and burrata was so good I had to resist face-planting into the bowl (in a good way). My date ordered the spicy mussels twice in one night—appetizer and entrée—because they were that addictive. The pear salad was fresh and delicious, just a touch overdressed (didn’t stop me from finishing it). Still haven’t made it to dessert because we’re always too full from how good everything else is. A very happy, very stuffed problem to have. And, honestly, a place that prevents you from reaching the dessert menu is either a tragedy or a triumph. In this case, it’s clearly a triumph wrapped in carbs and shellfish. The space itself is cozy and charming, but definitely loud—they’ve clearly outgrown it. The packed house is a testament to how good the food is, even if you have to lean in a little closer to hear your date.
