    This was our first visit but we will be regulars!! All of our food was delicious, service was great and drinks fantastic. It's small portions so you could definitely order a few items to share but we ordered individually and I love that. It's not a massive amount of food with so many leftovers to take home. The prices are great for the quality that you get.

    We don’t go to Daphne’s often since we live almost an hour away, but we certainly enjoyed our visit last night. Our server, Emma, was great and we enjoyed the food and ambiance. They were not taking walk-ins since they were fully booked, so glad we used Open Table

    The food was it’s usual best although they should serve scissors with soft shell snow crabs. The service personnel are hospitable and full of Southern charm but the restaurant was cold and uninviting. Overall a nice experience and would come again.
