My husband took me here for my birthday after hearing about it from friends. The atmosphere is very inviting, with soft instrumental French music playing, white tableclothes and a relaxing decor. It reminded me so much of our trip to France 10 years ago. The service was impeccable. Allain is the only server, but he does a wonderful job serving... More

Chez Daniel is an experience! It is an intimate place where you can actually hear one another talk and have a leisurely meal without feeling like your server wants to turn the table over quickly and move on. We went for girls night out and it was such a treat to linger and chat over an amazing meal. As other... More

My wife and myself heard about Chez Daniel from our son. He always raved about the soups and sandwiches he experienced at the downtown location. The ambience of the restaurant was great! Imagine being able to dine and only having to speak in a regular toned voice. With the background music, we felt as though we were back in Paris.... More

Arrived to find 9 tables in a small, intimate, quiet restaurant located in a strip mall. It is essentially a 2 man show. Chef Daniel running the kitchen and his partner greeting, seating, and serving all tables. You select an entree and it comes with soup, salad, and desert. All elegantly prepared with the freshest ingredients. Perfect portion sizes. Very... More

Hidden in a small commercial strip mall across from Folsom City hall is Chez Daniel. The restaurant is small, reservations are required and the food is wonderful. The prices are way too low for the delicious four-course meal (prices range from $27 to $30, depending on the main course that you select.) The owner Chef Daniel is passionate about food... More

Chez Daniel is one of our favorite special occasion restaurants. The food is top quality, mostly organic and made from scratch. The ambiance is wonderful and the waiter is personable, friendly and helpful with the menu. Everything on the menu is a 10 out of 10 including the dessert. We dine out a lot and we've come to appreciate quality... More

This place doesn't deserve its fawning descriptions and rating. We were there for a special time with old friends, and the meal was OK for the most part, nothing really special. But shortly after desert was served, we were finishing our second bottle of wine when the manager walked up and invited us to leave because there was another diner... More

For the money, the 4 course fixed price dinner is indeed excellent. As on prior reviews, this small restaurant is a 2 men show, the chef and the waiter. You get to choose the main course, the chef and the sole waiter Alain decide on who gets what on the soup, salad and dessert. The rack of lamb is outstanding,... More

We decided to try Chez Daniel after seeing a profile of the restaurant in a local magazine. The restaurant is warm and cozy, with only eight or nine tables in the dining room. The menu is fixed - you start with a bowl of the house soup (we chose the onion soup over the vegetable soup), followed by a simple... More
