    We recently celebrated our anniversary at Danico, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, the service, ambiance, and attention to detail were absolutely impeccable. The food was outstanding – every dish was expertly crafted, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. Meeting the chef during our visit was a special highlight, and it was evident that the culinary team is passionate about delivering excellence. Our server was exceptional, offering attentive and knowledgeable service throughout the evening. He went above and beyond, even taking us on a tour of the restaurant, which added a unique and memorable touch to our experience. The ambiance at Danico was elegant yet inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for a special occasion. The staff made us feel truly valued, and their thoughtful gesture of presenting us with a gift for our anniversary was a testament to the care and dedication they extend to their guests. Every aspect of our evening at Danico was flawless. It was a perfect balance of exceptional service, outstanding cuisine, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. We look forward to returning and highly recommend Danico to anyone seeking a truly memorable dining experience.

    Noah's vision for revitalizing this mainstay of Queen Street is a resounding success. The interior finds a niche right in the middle of cozy and classy, with thoughtfully designed walnut wood booths, 2-tops, gloriously quirky art, and a gorgeous bar. Service is always personalized and impeccable, even when they're buried in the middle of a dinner rush. The food is hearty, delicious, and has a range of prices for most budgets The menu hasn't changed a ton over the past few years, but its truly difficult to improve on a selection that can feed even the most challenging palate and stomach. The best restaurant in that area bar none, and one of the most criminally under celebrated bistros in the city.
