Daniel's Casual Fine Dining

My husband and I are new to the Wilson area and were looking for an upscale, yet affordable place to have dinner. Daniel's Casual Fine Dining was exactly what we were looking for. I had the pecan crusted chicken, which came with mashed potatoes and green beans. My husband had the brisket quesadillas. Both meals were fantastic and affordable. The wait staff were responsive and upbeat for our entire meal. We will definitely be returning soon!

Always delicious. We come here anytime we want to have a fun lunch outside. I always get the crab cakes - best in town. My husband has ventured more and says everything he's had has been excellent. Definitely going to miss this place.

Delicious and superb, quality ingredients!What a treasure to have Daniel and his delicacies right here in Wilson.I got a little worried when I Googled "Best restaurants in Wilson" and it gave me Cracker Barrel. But I see what is happening here, Google wants to keep Daniel's a secret, it is so excellent they would be over-run and the locals would not have a chance to enjoy his amazing, awe-inspiring "American Fare"Located in an unassuming strip mall, near Food Lion, is some of the best food I have had since moving to NC in 2011. And I am no stranger to a good meal!Wherever I am and Seared Ahi is on the menu, I must partake. This does not disappoint. Finely seared and encrusted with fine sesame seeds, drizzled with a ginger sauce along side an Asian slaw, I never eat the slaw, I think of it as decoration, but this was skillfully dressed with a flavor that should be bottled! I ate it all, even as a few pieces of ginger slipped in. What a delightful surprise!I had the Salmon special, expertly cooked, seasoned to perfection. A HUGE filet, lounging on a bed of buttery sautéed spinach and roasted mini potatoes, gently topped with finely sliced crispy onions. The Lemmon butter on the potatoes perfectly married with the Salmon filet, Genius!My mom enjoyed a grilled shrimp, skewer with cocktail sauce as an appetizer and their scrumptious Grilled pork-chop with "Brandied Apples". Fluffy garlic potatoes and red cabbage. She remarked how delicious everything was and how she has never had her favorite red cabbage anywhere but a German restaurant and it was fantastic! My niece, kept it light and had their Greek Salad as an entree, piled high with crumbled feta and a wonderful dressing!Even the bread was divine, crusty loaf pieces with a warm pillowy center, served warm with butter and an oil and vinegar dipping plate.And for the finale! OH MY WORD, the dessert list read like a 5 Star "Favorites List" He's a smarty, that Daniel!I did not see a dessert menu on-line but we asked about it early on, it was a challenge saving room after very generously sized entrees, but we were up for the challenge.The Crème Brûlée was the epic "mic-drop" of the evening. Large portioned ramekin with a solid hard shell of fired sugar protecting the luxurious crème below. I ate it slowly to savor every last bite, but I did share. Oh La, La that was expertly crafted!Key Lime pie and Tiramisu were house-made and lovely as well. The key-lime had the perfect zing of sour. The tiramisu I will have to try another time, too good to share! My niece paired her finale, which I thought was fitting, with an Espresso Martini, hold onto your hats folks, that was a warm cozy dessert in a cup. Liquid Love, really. Wow!Lastly, but certainly not to be overlooked. The service, Evie was wonderful, they were busy and she was very attentive! Brit's do know good service and she was delightful! Ask for her when you go!What a special place for a night out, a party or a very special Birthday Dinner. Happy Birthday Mom!Do yourself a favor and make a reservation NOW, Daniel's is perfection! You will absolutely enjoy every mouth-watering bite!

First time there, if we're ever back this way restaurant is a must! This place gives you anything from salads to lamb chops at its best. The portions are perfect and pricing is reasonable. A big shout out to the staff, from the minute we walked in till we left, the staff were unbelievably personable. If you get a chance to go I highly suggest you do.

Fabulous Traveling from Florida to PA we stopped for an over night in Wilson NC. Searching Yelp we stumbled on Daniel's- What a great jewel. We were greeted by the Hostess Evey, who was most accommodating, friendly & sweet young woman. Our waiter Christian was very knowledgeable & the most helpful with the menu. We indulged in small plates, cup of house special tomato soup & beet salad onto grilled shrimp, asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, beet salad, ahi tuna, wine & cocktail, topped with cream brûlée - all was outstanding. Pure delicious & delightful evening.

Restored our faith in Wilson NC dining. Every restaurant we have tried in Wilson has been just awful. And we mean bad. This place was our final attempt. Daniel's was 5/5 for food, value for money, and service. Everything was homemade. Great She-Crab soup! Decor is beautiful. Other patrons were lingering and enjoying themselves.

Nice menu with something for everyone. I had the duck breast which they cooked to my specifications of rare to medium rare. It was excellent and came with a generous portion of green beans and potatoes. My wife had a Caesar salad with a crab cake which was good but not great. The drinks were good as was the service. We liked sitting in the lively bar area and there is a separate dining area as well.

Everything was amazing! The food was outstanding and the service was impeccable! We were there for our sons graduation from ECU and am thrilled he he is getting his Masters so we can go back. Absolutely worth the drive!!

That crab soup is unbelievable. Soo good! The food and service has never disappointed. If I wasn't so broke I would eat there way more often than I do.

My husband and I had a delicious dinner at Daniels...complimented by lovely and attentive service. We both enjoyed the Crab Cake entree. I highly recommend this restaurant!
