When Restaurant Daniel first opened eleven years ago on East 65th Street, it was magnificent, and a welcome addition to the New York scene. To create his flagship restaurant, Daniel Boulud chose a designer who had never done a commercial space before, and who was known for creating luxurious residential interiors. The idea was a good one – an attempt to build a dining room that looked as inviting as the apartment of a very rich family. The effect, however, was charming but awkward.

Daniel Boulud’s success rests on his singular attention to detail, and his discipline. He is the most relentless of restaurateurs, and that is why his places are so pristine. So, in a few short years, he completely redesigned Restaurant Daniel, this time using the famous ADAM TIHANY, who is renowned for his commercial interiors, specifically those he has conceived for restaurants.

Last year Restaurant Daniel reopened after the re-design, and the results are worth the decade-long wait. The dining room feels substantial, and creamy, and hospitable. The lighting is particularly good, and everyone looks lovely, and happy. As with all of Tihany’s best designs, the space is a skillful blend of contemporary and classical. Good thing, too, because if you’re spending about $400 for dinner for two people, you (I guess I should say I) want the surroundings to match the food.
