   First time visiting Daniella's and based on it's reviews we were expecting great things. Well it is the Holiday Season and many of us (our group) were there for a friends Holiday get together for dinner. The parking is a bit of a * show.. and the owners feel as though pushing their profits even more by building a monster apartment building right next door rather than appropriate parking. Don't blame them necessarily for that... but for the City of Peabody to allow it to happen. Next was check in... it was fine and our table was ready just a few minutes after our arrival. Problem was the MUSIC was blaring so LOUD you may as well been in a nightclub in downtown Boston. It even was echoing outside the building even before going in... so that sort of set the scene. Then when escorted to our table it was in the OUTSIDE area that was enclosed, but with heat lamps. Given it was 12 Degrees outside that night.. (not the norm), it was not comfortable for the ladies at the table and the music level was even more intense in that room. The waitress was fine... but chose to yell across the table to get our orders vs. even getting close to us that made it even MORE annoying. As for the food.... the food was fantastic, but the rest of the experience... not so good.

   We had a fun time. I feel as though the amount that we paid did not match the service and the ambiance that goes with spending that amount of money. The food and drinks were great!

   Jolene was our server and she did an excellent job. It was our first time and we did not expect nor were we warned that we would be sitting on a patio, even though it had overhead heat the plastic had lots of gaps making temperature regulation difficult. The traffic noise was not conducive to a proper meal experience. We would have appreciated being forewarned so that we could have made an informed decision.

   Always had a good experience until tonight. So unfortunate on the lack of service/communication. Recommend only going when they handle their reservations.

    Porch dining area was overheated with ceiling space heaters. My special dinner (Fruit de Mare) lacked flavor and had a watered down red sauce. Service was excellent. Not up to par for Daniella's which is usually excellent food and atmosphere.
