“ I really choose well. Lol The minute I walked in it was confirmed. What a beautiful combination of elements. It’s a refined dining experience in the least pretentious way possible. Just lovely and kind. ”

“ This place is fantastic and has become a fan favorite. The staff, the service and the vibe are lovely and the food is genuinely a delight. My only constructive feedback is the degree of menu consistency. Some of my staple favorites have come and gone (that pan roasted chicken with fries was a dream; the short rib rigatoni was the bee’s knee; what happened to the lovely scallops?). I beg the kitchen team to identify what’s core to Daphne’s and keep a few staples around so regulars can anchor around dishes they can praise and bring in new patrons ;) Thank you all! xo (Ps please seriously bring back those fries!) ”

“ This place was amazing, everything on the menu was super good and the work atmosphere was very happy you can tell everyone was so happy to be there and make food. Highly recommend the Monkey bread is fresh its like a croissant super buttery and everything you would want in a bread. Every thing I ordered was fresh and carefully made with care.. this place is amazing for a brunch or nice little casual date. My server name started with a L she was lovely and super professional. ”

“ Honestly, probably the nicest and most upscale restaurant in Bed Stuy. The food quality is reflected in that, with superb ingredients and thoughtful balanced flavors. This is a great neighborhood date night restaurant or a perfect place to have your parents come to town and they’ll splurge for you. The atmosphere is great, modern and contemporary dining without feeling too fancy. The food, however, was amazing. As soon as I saw that they had a Berkshire Pork Chop on the menu, I already knew I was going to order that. It was phenomenal. If you’ve never had like a NICE pork chop before, this will forever change your mind about them. Almost melt in your mouth, with a delicious grilled broccoli rabe and savory lentils for a nice texture bonus with your bite. Love this dish! The striped bass was also good. Presentation is nice and also well balanced. The Caesar salad was delicious and had large portion. The dessert was amazing — forgot what it was... maybe a dulce de leche or something? Make sure to save room. Didn’t take photos of the Crispy Mushroom or Beef Tartare, but both appetizers were of shareable size and would definitely recommend both! I think this is worth taking the train for 100%. Not just a nice neighborhood spot. Highly recommend. ”

“ I came with no expectations simply because someone else in my party made the reservation and I didn’t look it up beforehand. Pure WOW. 10/10 and I am a picky b****. Christina, our server, was extremely professional and experienced, but also gave this genuinely chill and at ease energy, very high-end feel while in jeans, just knows what she’s doing. We raved about the monkey bread, and she went so far as to bring us an “extra” to take home, unasked. Also I’m a huge fan of open kitchen, and watching the team at work is always a pleasure for me. Great flavors, casual but refined presentation, and the owner on expo was also lovely to chat with. Just go! ”

“ Where do I begin? I have been to Daphne’s twice and both times gave such a lovely dining experience. I usually hesitate going to Italian restaurants (I am Italian), and Daphne’s hit on Every. Single. Level. Both times !!! The atmosphere at Daphne’s is perfect: unpretentious, comfortable, and CUTE! The service (although i’ve had the same incredible server twice, shouout Leslie) is amazing, knowledgeable about questions, gives their input, KNOWS the drink and food menu. Their wine list is very good and have not had a bad glass here with either meal. Every dish i’ve ordered and ate at Daphne’s has been incredible, and one special thing to note is that the menu changes quite often. The small additions/changes made gives you the choice to try something new or to stick with something you’ve had previously. Some menu highlights are BOTH salads. The Caesar is great but the white bean salad really hit for me. The arancini were tasty (wish they gave 4 instead of 3), and the crudo was a lovely nice antipasti. The pasta they make is absolutely incredible, perfectly cooked each time and you can taste the homemade difference. The rabbit ragu, which I had both times I went, is a must try. Pictured below is the campanelle, which was super tasty, a pesto that doesn’t overpower the ingredients within the pasta. For the secondi I have tried the berkshire porkchop and a seasonal addition which was the catechino (sausage served over black lentils, pictured). The Berkshire porkchop was expertly cooked and so very tasty, would order it again. The Catechino was great as well. I was dining with my friend from Italy who is from the region where catechino is usually eaten over new years and he cosigns how great Daphne’s rendition is !!! Overall I would recommend Daphne’s to anyone. Lovely place, great atmosphere, and the biggest standout for me is the PORTIONS! You do not leave this place hungry and are guaranteed a great meal. ”

“ This was a fantastic meal. We got the special, which was a whole trout. I didn’t love that all the seasoning was on the outside but when combined with the beans beneath it the taste was amazing. The white bean salad was very good and the dulce de leche tiramasu was a fantastic take on a classic. The service was casual and low key but very good. ”

“ upscale fine dining style (small portions and menu) all very delicious. intimate setting right seating may be difficult if you are very large. food was great service was great and comes with the price that that usually has. you must try the bread. had a gift card so splurged i think our total was 140 for 2 cocktails, 2 starters and 2 entrees. ”
