Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Syracuse

My husband and our close friends enjoyed easily one of the best dinner experiences we’ve ever had at a restaurant last night. We chose Lam for our annual Christmas dinner and we were not disappointed. The service was excellent. All four of us raves about our dinners. I had the limoncello chicken. I would order it again and again. The men both had the short rib dish and devoured it! The pistachio cheesecake was out of this world! The decor was magical and the owner was the sweetest! Even with all the dining choices Syracuse has to offer, we would return to LM as our first choice.

I was surprised by the fact that it was a small restaurant with a very small defined menu. However, my surprise turned to extraordinary delight when I ordered a small bite and dinner that were truly outstanding along with the incredible wine pairings. This is one of those hidden gem restaurants that I was lucky to find while traveling on business through Syracuse. 

Excellent place to go before a show. There was a special menu based on the Lion King theme and all items we chose were delicious. Service was friendly and accurate.

It is a true hidden gem! Tucked away inside the NYS Fairgrounds it is actually more convenient since there's ample parking and pretty much in a secured area. Upon arrival we were greeted by a friendly hostess and sat down at a table that is surely a delight for two since it's larger than the average. Food was impeccable and the drinks were spot on. Our server Adam was very pleasant and attentive. I highly recommend Daniella's if you want a more private intimate gathering without the hassle of traffic.
