Danny's Kitchen + Bar

At the risk of sharing the best kept secret in Woodbury Stillwater Oakdale I am giving a two thumbs up and then some. I have been searching for a premier steakhouse for years without going to the city. By accident we stumbled upon this gem. Incredible food. Steaks that melt in your mouth, sauce options to taste, Delish sides and amazing desserts. To be sure our first visit wasn't a fluke, we revisited months later only to again be served incredible fare. It is a bit pricey but well worth it. Highly recommend as long as there's still a seat for me.

After reopening after their remodel we were happy to see new booths and seating. The menu was the same as before they closed so that was a little disappointing. Service was just ok and they didn't seem overly busy. We had a filet steak and the fish and chips. The steak was very good but my fish was overcooked, fries barely warm and the coleslaw was tasteless. We really like the atmosphere at Danny's and that they have music on the weekends. They also have a lovely patio. We will be back and will try another entree but really wish they would have upgraded the menu.

The patio was nice. The food was so so. The ribs had a nice dry rub and tasted good. The buger was mediocre, the lettuce and tomato didnt seem fresh, he burger lacked taste, wasnt cooked to order, and the bun was dry. The cole slaw was also quite plain. But, the beer was cold and refreshing.

We went here for the Mother's Day bunch they were promoting. There was very little info online about the menu! It was $50/per and didn't include any drinks. It was another $20/per for bottomless mimosas or bloody Mary's. When We got there, we witnessed an upset customer because apparently there was an hour time limit on brunch. They took their plates away and basically said times up. When we were seated, it was in the tent area. I Didn't realize that was the only area for brunch service and it didn't mention this online. It was not full at all, but we were seated at the first table closest to the entrance which was odd. We sat there for a minute and not one person came up to us to explain anything. When I asked the waitress, she said "Yeah it's a buffet, help yourself". I would have expected at least someone to tell us where to get water or juice, where the plates were, etc. Ok, now the food. The breakfast food was about as good as a Best Western hotel breakfast. Bacon, cubed potatoes, sausage links, scrambled eggs, and biscuits and gravy (gravy was only decent part). The lunch side was not much better but at least was more from scratch. The prime rib was good, and the desserts were good. My GF wanted a mimosa, that was $10 and it was a small plastic cup size. Every time they grabbed our plates they took the silverware. Payment. They made you include the tip when you paid up front when you arrived. Not sure why you had to pay up front, and then pay for drinks separately if you didn't do the $20/deal vs. paying when you are done and paying for everything together?Total bill with tip was almost $300 for 4 people to have average food and only 2 of us had one drink each. Btw, they didn't have to kick us out after an hour as we left before the time was up as the atmosphere and food was not good. We will not be going back here for brunch or any other reason.

This restaurant is absolutely top notch. Not only is the service stellar (Kelly) but the food is amazing. Swing in here some time as you're missing out if you have not been!!!

Our party decided to go here because of the live music advertised. We called ahead to make sure there was live music playing tonight. When we got there, the waitress said she "didn't know where the band was and they could be on their way."Narrator: There was no live music. The potstickers were ok. I didn't like the sauce it was bathed in. Normally, potstickers have the dipping sauce (which is light and watery) on the side. The potstickers were doused with a thick sauce.Loved the artichoke dip! Hearty, generous chunks of artichokes, nice and cheesy, and Served piping hot. We asked for more chips.For the main course, I ordered the twin 4oz steaks at medium rare. It was good. The blue cheese sauce was too thick for my liking. The veggies were heavily seasoned.I didn't feel like doing dessert.... because there wasn't live music.

Went here for a special occasion and service was awesome. The food was decent. They have a smaller menu so not a ton of choices but I decided on sunnies as it appeared that was something they specialize in and they were great. Husband had ribs and it was a nice sized portion. Not a huge wine selection. We opted for some ellsworth cheese curds for an appetizer and were not disappointed. Overall a solid choice.

Oh boy Danny's....what happened? We had such a disappointing meal this past weekend. The Smash burgers totally tasteless, wilty salad, the whole meal was mediocre. We won't go back

So we haven't been there in years since Todd the chef left.I had the berry salad with chicken and strawberries with a mango dressing it was awesome.I also had the short rib sandwich was also excellent. My wife had the seafood stew it smelled amazing and tasted that good too.Are waitress was great too. The drinks were good tooI'm can hardly wait to go back.The new chef is Dave. THANKS FOR A GREAT MEAL DAVE.

Our experience tonight was extremely disappointing. For several years we've considered Danny's to be a "go to" spot. Tonight we had a reservation, the dining room was not at all crowded, but the service was incredibly slow and the food (prime rib sandwich and beef short rib sandwich) were basically awful--over-cooked, dry and tasteless. Sadly, we do not plan to go back to Danny's.
