Bienvenue(Welcome)

We are very excited to
announce the opening of Chef Daniel's Restaurant and Wine Bar.
We are located at 108 North Magnolia Ave. one block north off the downtown square. You will find us on the ground floor level of the Historic Marion Hotel, a landmark of our fine city. Many older residents had their school prom in the Grand old Ballroom and today it is still used for business luncheons, other functions, special events and of course, a great place to have a wedding reception!
(Reminder: Chef Daniel and his staff are available for all occasion catering... no event too small or too large. We work with all budgets.)

Daniel's own personal expressions and interpretations. (Regular menu changes)
