I have been there twice and the first time was amazing. There was nothing on the menu that I disliked. Second time was quite different. The food was not perfect with some strange combinations. Atmosphere is top notch with only the chef and his wife running the restaurant. He comes and talks with the customers and creates the mood.

Absolutely wonderful food I cannot express fully how wonderful Restaurant Danyel is. We spent a few years in Europe and always found awesome food especially in Maastricht, however we always found ourselves coming back here. Danyel and Mariska are amazing and were so supportive and excited with every question we had with food, Europe, wine and their experiences, they (and the food!) make this place very special.

The first time we ate here it was by chance on one of our first dates and the welcome we received along with the food brought us back over and over again. We were happy to find this place before my wife and I got married and proud to show Danyel and Mariska when we got married. A date night here is never wasted.

We have recommended this restaurant to our friends many times and they have always come back ecstatic with the same experiences we had.

Thank you Danyel and Mariska for your warm kindness and smiles. you really do have something very special.

We came to Danyel as part of our first visit to Maastricht. The city offers a lot for culinary experiences, but Danyel caught our eye fast - and it didn’t disappoint. Restauranteurs  Danyel and Mariska are kind, inviting and great at their game.

Restaurant offers only course based menus, you can choose form 5 to 8 courses - great for sustainability (no waste) and creativity of the chef.

We had a umami style salmon sashimi starter salad, followed by a fish based vegetable soup. After came pan seared cod with saffron pumpkin puree and followed by a second main, a picanha with grilled veggies and a fantastic jus.

The jewel of the night is the one pictured: homemade chocolate ganache and melon ice cream with salted caramel nut base. What a finish.

All of our meals were paired with great wine thanks to Mariska and service and discussion  felt like we visited a friend - and other customers were feeling the same.

All and all, a great experience overall - and the food is amazing too!

We’ll be back for sure :)
