Tonight's dinner was at @danielsapexnc! I have wanted to try this place for such a long time and we finally made it happen. This is pastably the best pasta dish I have ever had. App: You get really good bread and marinara sauce Pizza: Pepperoni and basil Mains: Pasta a la Bolognaise- Slow roasted shredded pork and beef sautéed in a ragout sauce with marsala wine, celery, onions, carrots, and fresh herbs tossed with gemelli pasta; garnished with fresh Romano cheese and basil Penne Alla Casa- The house favorite! A heavenly concoction of red sauce and cream, garlic, Romano cheese, sundried tomatoes, and spinach (Blackened chicken added) Desserts: Apple Bread Pudding Creme Brulee We had so many carbs tonight. It was so worth it. We started off with the complimentary bread with sauce. It

My husband and I stopped in for lunch and will definitely be going back for dinner! Our nephew recommended Daniel’s to us and we were not disappointed. We are former Long Islanders who know what really good Italian food should be like. We started with fried calamari and it was THE BEST that we’ve had since leaving New York. My husband ordered the lasagna and I had the Chicken Franchaise. Both were delicious.

calamari + sauce was probably my favorite thing i had. the bread was decent, but typical of any other bread you would get. the salmon with dill was very good. the acidity + lemon taste is definitely very strong, though, which was nice. the pizza was decent, and the desserts are large.

Every sauce is premier. It’s made from scratch! That does mean that, for larger groups, your food may take longer! It’s worth is. The Diablo Seafood—I will order that every time that I come here because they have no business making a pasta that good! The clams, mussels, shrimp, calamari… 🤤 Everyone else enjoyed their food and the marinara with the bread. One person did not expect the sauce with the calamari to be spicy but I thought it was the perfect balance! Parking can be a struggle! Plan accordingly. We came here a second time for another celebration and the food was still PHENOMENAL! The service was a little different because they were busier and it took our food about an hour to come out. But again, worth it!

Cozy spot with lovely décor, perfect for dining in. They even offer free bread to start with, which was a nice touch. Tried the lobster ravioli and penne with spinach, paired with a margarita. The pasta dishes were incredibly delicious—the sauce was creamy, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The lobster ravioli was absolutely outstanding… I couldn’t stop at just one bite and ended up cleaning the plate! Highly recommend. 🍝🦞🍸🥖
