Danny's

Hearty comfort food… very good chicken francese, veg and potatoes were mediocre. Friend enjoyed her salad with salmon. Good service. Consistent and reliably good food.

A fixture in downtown Wurtsboro, this place has survived time's test. Food very good, and the dessert of cheesecake was delicious. Bathroom clean and there is ample paved parking in front. On site is an automatic teller machine, a web-based juke box, and numerous plasmas displaying sports and other programming. Friendly waitstaff. There is a small "service fee" for dining at a table. On the wall next to the table are inoperable doorbells which used to summon the waitstaff to the corresponding tables.

10 years ago we used to love going to this place. Unfortunately it really declined. The last few times were not good. We decided to give it another go about 2 weeks ago. It was a Friday night. We walked in and it was a little busy waitresses and the waiter were running around. There was two people behind the bar. We stood there for a few minutes. Never even got greeted. I considered walking out and I wish I had. A waiter took our drink order and I asked him which appetizer he recommended. I'm not sure what he said as I could not understand him. He came back and I asked again. He said they are all good. A few minutes later a waitress comes over and said there was some confusion about whose table was whose or whatever and she would be taking care of us. She was very friendly and very nice. And the place was decorated so beautifully as always For Christmas. We had the steamers, and the calamari. The steamers were huge Chewy and gritty had absolutely no flavor. Unfortunately the calamari was undercooked. I really wanted the prime rib as it's my favorite thing to order but the last two times I had it it was not good. So I decided on a hot open roast beef with a side of mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were cold. It's so unfortunate because this place is so nostalgic and beautiful. I heard that there is new owners. I went on their Facebook page and there is no postings for like 3 years. My boyfriend had the Ruben and he enjoyed his sandwich. Like I said 10 plus years ago we would dine in weekly but unfortunately things started to go downhill and I've given it try after try after try. Now we will try some of the other local restaurants.

Been dying to try this place, since it's very well known for the area. It's on the first floor of a beautiful historic building and the ambiance of the seating/bar area is nice, dark and cozy. The server was very nice, but also very slow. The food itself was good - cooked well, good portions. Different pricing than the online menu, so they haven't updated their pricing online, be aware. Everything was $3-4 more than what was listed online. Overall, it was ok but more average than I expected, considering how the locals rave about it. The place was empty, there were only 3 tables including us, so it definitely should not have taken us one hour and 30 min to eat a burger and pizza. We were pretty frustrated with the service, and the food was not good enough to excuse this, so I'm glad I finally checked it out but will probably not be coming back.

We ordered two burgers for take out. According to the menu on Google, the total was $21. The bill came to $37 cash. My husband was told they automatically add in a tip. I realize prices may have increased since the menu was posted, but they didn't give my husband as receipt so i don't know why we paid so much. The food was fine, burgers cooked a little too long, but that's okay. What I don't get is why should I be charged a tip? They sold me their product (lunch), I drove there and picked it up. No one waited on me. That alone will keep us from going back.

Danny’s is Such A absolute Great Place to Eat And Drink at Here In Wurtsboro. I would Recommend Going There. Always Amazing Food and Very Respectful Waitresses And Bartenders ❤️

I have passed this place many times. Finally stopped for lunch and it was very good. I had the French Onion Soup and a cheeseburger. Place was not crowded at all — just me and some locals at the bar having lunch. I enjoyed it and would definitely go back. Always thought it was a cool old building.

So we came here after a long day of work. Our server was new his name was Hunter and he was an absolute delight! So attentive . He made sure we were completely taken care of. I ordered salmon and it was delicious. The bartender peter made the best seabreeze ! Everyone was so friendly. We will be back!

My parents love their burgers. We'll drive an hour north to stop by one of the oldest restaurants to have their very thick meat patty with delicious fries. This place is no frills. You walk in and straight into a bar and a dining area on the right. The decor is from the 70s and the place will be full. Their fish and chips were also delicious with a fresh piece of fish, just wish it wasn't over salted. Our server was attentive and efficient.

The waitress was pleasant and friendly however, several tables came in after us, some with more people and they all received their food before us. We ordered the special, which was surf and turf, not a cheap bill! We waited over an hour watching newer customers come in, sit, order and eat before our dinners even came out of the kitchen. We were actually putting our coats on and preparing to leave. Instead of taking any blame the waitress put the full responsibility on the chef, saying he didn't like her and that's why our order was delayed. The other tables that came in after us were also her tables and it seemed that the chef liked her just fine for those orders! This was not our first time being disappointed, but it is certainly the last time we will go to Danny's.

Danny's has been in Wurtsboro for at least 60 years. Food is always delicious, fresh and homemade! They have a large menu and is very well known for their burgers, pasta dishes, and steaks. I have never had a bad meal here.

The service was great. The waitress was sweet and accommodalthough what we ordered was not worth 16 dollarsThe sandwich was supposed to be their signature Ruben tasted good, but not much there. The baked potato was barely warm. I was hungry after.

Food service is slow and orders are inaccurate, quality of food is not good, I have given them two chances and will not be back. Pasta overcooked, burgers not cooked as requested. drinks are also not made well, Incorrect ingredients, inaccurate description of menu items, lack of availability of menu items. Fish tacos were inedible (sent my order back), calamari was chewy and lacked flavor, stuffed mushrooms also lacked flavor. It's fine to come here for very basic bar type food, but I have no idea why they are so popular

Went here tonight for the first time with my husband and son. Being New Years Eve, the restaurant was very crowded. The server was friendly and efficient. The food was good and the Christmas decorations were delightful! Recommended.

I came from New York with a group of 10 and we had unambiguously good experiences. We were shocked that reviews were not more positive. Collectively we loved: 1. The Reuben 2. Chicken Parm 3. Cheeseburger 4. Chicken Tenders 5. Hamburger 6. French Dip Thanks to a very friendly staff for all the recommendations! (p.s. The fries were also AMAZING!)

The reason why am given this place a one is because my husband and I ordered fish tacos and when it came out, it was flatbread with fish that had hot sauce on it when I told the waitress that this is not what I thought it was and I don't like it she said I don't know what to tell you what is it that you don't like I said it has hot sauce on it she said oh yes, I forgot to mention that , would you like a takeout box at that point I didn't understand what she meant because I wanted to change it for a grilled cheese sandwich instead. she keep the tacos on the bill so I paid for both the bill came out to $44 and my husband being the way he is he still tipped her $15. I will never go back there.

what a great find! the food was reasonably priced and outstanding. our server, Patrick was so very personable, happy and motivated.

This is a missed opportunity for a great place. The location and the building very cool. The food not so much. The waitress very friendly but a little slow.

Great service. The turkey dinner was delicious served with cranberry sauce. The bar service was good. And the beer was nice and cold

Considering they have been open for many years I thought I would try it and expected good food. The French onion soup tasted burnt, then the order was wrong and food came out cold. We just left. Went to the diner. Terrible service and food. Never again.

I have passed this place many times. Finally stopped for lunch and it was very good. I had the French Onion Soup and a cheeseburger. Place was not crowded at all -- just me and some locals at the bar having lunch. I enjoyed it and would definitely go back. Always thought it was a cool old building.

Stopped in here This past Sunday for lunch while on a Memorial Day roadtrip I had a chicken wrap with fries both of which were great!! The fries are Excellent the two women who were serving were very accomodating and friendly!. Hope to stop in here again the next time we're in the area!!.

Nice ambiance, like stepping back in time 40 years given the rustic feel. Most impressive was the huge selection of seafood, beef, poultry and much more. Portion sizes were gigantic...literally enough for two people, my scallops, crab and shrimp on angel hair pasta with Asiago sauce could have fed me for two days for less than $25. Of course there was a relative paucity of seafood in the sauce (found only 2 shrimp) but it was very tasty and hot. Service a bit slow but it was one day before Xmas eve. Overall a very pleasant experience that can be preceded by fun shopping at the Emporium down the street to build up an appetite.

Located in a historical inn going back to 1814, it feels like stepping back in time! Well preserved and with attention given to detail the place is a gem. After a full day of hiking I felt that I deserve my calories. Prime steak the first night. The salad absolutely fresh. A great basket of warm bread . Irish beer. The steak delicious and since I knew from previous reviews that my chef had a tendency to serve it lukewarm: straight back to him ! Once this was done it became a dream ! Did I mention the best apple pie I've ever had ? The dinner was so delicious that two days later I had to have the best lamb shank ever! By this time I warned him , the chef, it came out sizzling: absolutely delicious! And after 10 miles on the Basha Kill trail ( an absolute must !) I did indulge in two small beers ! Will I go back ? Probably!

Had an AWESOME server who was so sweet and friendly. Her name was Katie and not only was it a pleasure to chit chat with her during the meal, but the food was fantastic as well. Even if the food was average, I'd come back for the conversation, the friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere! Thanks Katie, we'll definitely be back!

We've eaten here before and it has been ok - not great but ok. Not the case this time. Our server Annmarie was awful from the time we walked in the door. She took us to a table and said - I don't know if this is clean but still sat us there. I ordered off the specials menu. We never got placemats or bread like the other tables. She tried to give our food to the table behind us and was insistent it was their order. Didn't bring us utensils until after our food, never asked us for a drink refill. My food was completely wrong (it was the menu item not the special) which I would have told her is she ever came to check but I gave up and ate it. After getting our check it took 15 minutes for her to take our card for payment.

I dont understand how this place has under 4 stars. The food is amazing - everytime I get it, no matter how many different things I try. The waitresses are fast and very friendly. I will keep coming back here for more.

Huge selection and everything we've ever tried here is great. From the pizza to the steak and all the sandwiches in between. We've never had any bad experiences with the waitresses or bartenders... try smiling and being friendly to them - it goes a long way. If you're looking for a fancy new dining room with shiny new walls and windows then this isn't for you. If you're looking for delicious food and a cozy place then you need to try this!

This was my second time at Danny's with my boyfriend and his dad. We always choose this place as our dinner-go-to when we're anywhere remotely near Wurtsboro. Tonight, our sweet waitress, Allison, was on top of everything. Whenever we needed extra sour cream or water refills, she was there with a smile. We all shared an appetizer of the baked potato skins. These were excellent and we finished every bit of them. I also picked a White Russian as my drink tonight, and it was just heavenly. My hearty dinner entree came with a soup or salad, and I opted for the turkey noodle soup. The soup was delicious as was my chicken marsala entree. My entree also came with a baked potato and a veggie medley side. I ended up having leftovers to take home, which were just as delicious the next day.

I've returned to Danny's after 7 years. Everything is so much improved over my last visit, I am glad to say. My server was Kelly, who was good behind the bar. I had the steak again, and this time it was so much better. Really enjoyed how it was prepared, it was not salted, it was great for all the reasons that I kept coming here (almost) every 5 years. May be back in the area soon, and will definitely return.

I've been living in Wurtsboro for over 20 years. Danny's hasn't been Danny's for over 10 years. Once upon a time you can order anything & it was really good. Then the choices are down to pizza or burgers. Today they couldn't even get the burgers right, it's a shame. Buns burnt, asked for medium rare, it was medium, the mash potatoes instead of fries were cold, hard & tasteless. Despite the service also being mediocre I still tip heavy 50% I'll stick to thin crust pizza moving forward & picking up my order. ‍

Was just there and service was horrendous. Our server, Annmarie had no personality. No smile, no greeting. Was impatient when questioned about a particular dish with a short answer NO. Never gave our table a basket of bread as all other tables had. After taking our order, she ignored us. Never ask how everything was, if we wanted another drink, or if we wanted dessert/ coffee. Had to wait almost 20 minutes trying to get her attention for the check. There was only 5 tables being served by 2 waitresses. Not over busy. In addition to Annmarie.... As I understand tables have to be cleaned between guest, the excessive use of bleach to clean the tables while guest are eating is very unappetizing. VERY DISAPPOINTED!

It was just ok. We decided to eat there because we had a 4 and 3 year old and it said kid friendly but they didn't have a children's menu so I wouldn't consider it kid friendly like a 3 year old won't eat a huge bowl of linguini‍ Since we were traveling I didn't have to option of taking the bowl of pasta home. Food was so/so.

I use the gift card from Danny's gave it to the waitress for my bill told her what was left over she can use it towards her tip. The woman behind the bar said no " House rule" so we gave the waitress a nice cash tip. The woman behind the bar just took the gift certificat, never asking us about the remaining balance just kept the $15 for the house. As a Michelin star chef food was mere mediocre. Waitress was great.

Danny's used to be a decent place. Went here today while visiting family up here. Was "greeted" by a very unfriendly waitress who picked menus up from the floor and threw them on the table. Food took about 45 mins to arrive and was passed to about 3 different tables before brought to us. A few hours later we were both violently ill at what was supposed to be a nice holiday dinner at home.

I used to like this place, but I don't know what's going on but the service is not the same. I went to eat dinner on Sunday and I ordered from the specials menu. Grilled Chicken Tortellini Alfredo. Well, I got a huge plate of Tortellini swimming in Alfredo sauce and NO chicken. I was like Okay!! I am not the type of person that makes a big deal about things but I had to say something. They took my plate back to get me some chicken and remove some of the sauce, and all they gave me was some pulled chicken on topof the pasta. It was a mess. My appetite at that point was gone. I really liked this place, but I don't think I'm going back for awhile.

Gordon Ramsey would take a flamethrower to this place. Just awful service and food. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me, will never go back here.

poor quality food. tastes like they have a dirty kitchen. can't even make a grilled cheese right

Totally worth it for the retro bar vibes...just don't get confused and try to eat the food.

Hit or miss here. I think it depends on who is in the kitchen. I usually am happy with my food, but every once in a while...

Last 2 times was a terrible experience. Sent messages to them with no reply. Last time they ran out of sauerbraten, roast beef and bread. Don't waste your time. Place is a wreck. Wallpaper hanging off the wall, filthy floors and paint is chipping off the walls. PLUS 31/2 percent up charge for using a credit card. No thanks. I'll travel a little bit for a better spot.

Not too many placed around this area for good wholesome food but this is one of them. I'd give them 5 stars but for two things: Had to wait in the car for a table due to covid which was fine but there was confusion about when we could be seated. Secondly we ordered soups which were completely forgotten. At least we weren't charged for them. Otherwise the meals were delicious and portions were more than we could finish. Will definitely go back for a second try.

This place is not good. I wouldn't recommend it at all, I understand that food is a little more expensive so prices need to be raised but it's way to expensive. They also don't start serving pizza until 4 which is absurd. They charged me $2 for using my card just because it wasn't cash what kinds bullshit is that. The food is mediocre but there isn't enough choices I'd rather go to the ice cream parlor next door. Only giving it 2 stars because the service was good. DONT GO HERE

Wow! Dined here yesterday. The food and service were awesome. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

On August 2, 2021 I sent the following message to Danny's Village Inn Facebook messenger. I never received a response or acknowledgement (today is Sept. 3), so now I will take it public. It pains me to do this, as we were good customers of Danny's for many years: We are regular customers at Danny's. We have always felt safe at Danny's during the pandemic (and we supported you throughout the pandemic), but that changed last night. My husband and I are vaccinated; the sign on your door says that masks are required only if you are not vaccinated. We noticed that not one of your staff was wearing a mask, so we assumed that the entire staff is vaccinated. You know what they say about "assume" ......During our dinner, we had a conversation with one of your unmasked servers, who volunteered to us that she is not vaccinated and why she is not vaccinated. I didn't want to create a scene, so I let it go. Why wasn't she wearing a mask? Why is Danny's requiring customers who aren't vaccinated to wear a mask, but not requiring the unvaccinated staff to wear a mask? Why the double standard? I know help is hard to get, but you are putting not only your customers at risk, but the rest of your staff at risk as well. Knowing what I know now, I no longer feel safe at Danny's, and we will not return until this entire situation improves.

The atmosphere here is great if one likes small town, local place where folks go. The food is great, staff really nice and prices good. Only negative is that wait staff is slow, and meals get delivered to the table and are not hot.

Not a happy person. Husband and i went out tonight for our usual bar pie and fried calamari and then we find out they got rid of the calamari which is the only appetizer i like from there. then the top it off you get charged now to pay with a credit card. It's 2020 most people never have cash on them these days. We'll no longer be returning to Danny's anymore.

We were there yesterday and have been there many times in my life. The servers were very gracious considering the staffing issues that were evident. My husband ordered a prime rib and said he enjoyed it. I had the eggplant Parmesan which was very good. We hope that Vinny can find some more staff to help his very dedicated servers.

I am assuming there's a help wanted sign outside due to the wait staff being extremely unfriendly . From the first approach I was rudely sat by a young girl that acted like she didn't even work there she rolled her eyes and threw her hands up at me in a very rude better. So we decided to sit for dinner my dinner was bland to say the least maybe they ran out of salt but it was edible. Then we get to the bill an extra drink was charged to our account !! The worst part is this is the waitress took the drink off the table and placed it behind the cash register as if we were being punished and could not drink or finish our drinks. Abs she never even discounted the bill.

So so so very disappointed in this place. I went back and took my family who is visiting from out of town to Danny's in Wurtsboro. I remember this place being wonderful when I went with my parents as a child and teenager... Boy has it changed. I always remembered the mussels steam pot being amazing! Unfortunately they were out of mussels... And clams... And shrimp... Mussels, That's the only thing I had a taste for! Whiskey and coke was watery. Also the wings were quite disgusting. They tasted like freezer burn and had a smelly funk about them. The blue cheese was gross, it smells like the refrigerator... As if it was left out in the open in the refrigerator and picked up it's nasty stench. Asked the served about the French onion soup in place of my mussels. He said, "it's okay." So I didn't order it. I read on yelp that the fish and chips here were pretty good. I would like to strongly disagree with that Yelper. Fish was overly greasy. The best thing about my experience was the tartar sauce. Overall, very disappointed in what was used to be a delightful outing. Don't waste your time people.

Why does it take 5-10 minutes to even get asked if we want drinks? Why does it take 10-15 minutes to get our check? The food was good, but please work on the service! It was not busy.

5 of us. Good service, friendly atmosphere and the bacon cheese burgers and "the stack" were yummy! Special being in a 200 year old landmark.

Unfortunately, the quality of this restaurant has gone down. I have been here plenty of times and it use to be fantastic. But, this time was the final straw for poorly made food. I attempted to order the crab cakes which the server said she had never heard of crab cakes being served. First, it was served plenty of times and it was actually delicious which another women confirmed they did indeed sell them. Next, the calamari was over cooked and the sauce that it came with was subpar. Very disappointed for something so simple to be cooked subpar. Next, the mozzarella sticks were over cooked and the cheese tasted like rubber. If I wanted to eat rubber I would rather prefer tractor supply for a lovely selection. The service? Slow, mediocre, and non responsive. I personally had to get up and go to the servers for 2 tables that were also waiting. I will not be coming here again, and I'm disappointed with what is happening at this establishment.

Not a bad place at all. Its in a really old house from the 1800's with huge columns, but instead of being fancy its more of a pub with a dining area. The food however is solid, and runs from typical pub stuff for good seafood and some Italian and cajun stuff. I usually order off the specials menu, from which I've had mixed results. Once I had a jambalaya off it that was made with pork, chicken, and sausage; there was mostly pork in it, the sausage wasn't the right kind, and most importantly the right flavors weren't there. Another time, I had a broccoli rabe and sausage ravioli dish that came in a vodka cream sauce with tomatoes, proscuitto, and some other stuff. The ravioli were homemade and great, although they could've been balanced better. The sauce was a little overly creamy without enough flavor from the stuff that was thrown in, but the dish was still very good. The best single thing I've had is the white zuppa di mussels, Although we ordered it as an appetizer, it came in a huge pot like when its a main course, and had around 60 mussels in it (no joke). Most importantly, they were fresh, properly cooked, and were delicious. I'm proud to say I somehow finished my main course after eating half of that. I've tried the red zuppa as well, and I prefer the white personally. Bottom line with this place is its no frills, has some inventive stuff, and has great seafood and chops. If you live nearby or are passing through, its definitely worth a shot.

Very good service. No one else in the area would allow our friend to use their restroom, but they would! Will definitely stop back in on one of our trips again!

Hi I enjoy going to Danny's restaurant the staff is very amicable and I enjoy their company when I visit their food is very good I am there about four nights a week it's very close to my home and it feels like home I'm so glad I am able to have a place as comfortable as Dannys

Unfortunately Danny's is going down hill. We had to walk out last week on Sunday because they ran out of almost all their food and when we tried again last night it was the same. They ran out of shrimp, most pasta and the service is just becoming terrible. We were seated and the waitress didn't tell us of the food they ran out of until my friend tried to order 3 different dishes. She was told, sorry, we don't have that 3 We gave up and went someplace else. Not going to be going there for some time. It's a shame because we have always been fans.
