Best Cozy Restaurants in Danvers

If you value quality over price, this is the spot. Look, a good meal isn't cheap. You pay for good quality, superb preparation, and excellent service, and Pellana has it all. Our server, Teddy, was on point. Phenomenal service, he was knowledgeable, witty, and best of all, returned to the table right when we needed him without hovering. That's a skill most don't have. We started with the bacon wrapped scallops, and hubby had to grab a bosshog x, I was a bit more moderate with a widow jane. Now, the food. THE FOOD!!!! The best steak I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Perfectly seared outside. A perfect Med cook all the way through from end to end.. I had it topped oscar style. Great bernaise sauce, and we shared the garlic mashed potand creamed corn, which has a lovely hint of roasted red pepper, not spicy, but just the little something needed to cut the sweetness of the corn. hubby had the veal chop. Again, the preparation was flawless, I've never seen a veal chop so perfectly cooked all the way through. The drinks were also well poured and unique, I tried the seaside toast, glenfiddich with a smoked cherry wood presentation. He had the smokehouse, with mezcal. Finished off the meal with a creme brule and pistachio martini. Loved every bite and sip. Can't wait to go back.

We came at the very busy time, Valentine’s Day. Despite our reservation we had to wait for about half hour though it was expected considering circumstances. What we didn’t realize the restaurant expanded the space with veranda. While heated the corner area was not the most comfortable space for people over 60. Huge respect to the restaurant team. After I requested to change our seating to “real” indoor area they were fast to find us the first freed table so the rest of our dinner was perfect.

Amazing food well worth the wait. Definitely going back again

We love Daniella’s. It’s great food and ambience. We continuously come here for date nights. We love to sit at the bar and chat. We often get the Sporko for a cocktail. Their espresso martinis are also delish. The Manhattans are good, but they are strong. For food we love the tenderloin and mushroom risotto. Probably the best thing on the menu. Also love the bolognese and chicken & broccoli. All the desserts are phenomenal.

Went for a valentines 3 course fixed price offering and every thing exceeded expectations. Excellent flavor in every dish served. Wine and food very good value. Sat in back and felt it was better choice than towards front door. Highly recommend
