Overall very good food and service. It’s a bit noisy but I guess that shows everyone is enjoying themselves. Must try is the signature Char Siu. The sea bass is deboned which is a first for me. Recommended. Overall 4 1/2 out of 5 stars. Wish they serve soup.

Daphne is my favorite restaurant in the Financial District for business lunches. Tables are far enough apart to have a decent conversation, food is very good and service is outstanding. Every time I have brought a guest here for a business lunch, they've been delighted. Highly recommend!

It was my first time at this restaurant on a little solo date, and I must say the ambience was really nice. My waiter was such a gentleman, he let me know the specials for to the day so I ordered the braised short ribs, it was really good. I definitely will be back.
