About the restaurant

Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse offers a unique, Italian-inspired atmosphere to go with its full menu of Italian dishes and steaks. Dining here will almost definitely mean hearing the likes of Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack over the sound system, and this Syracuse restaurant offers delightful décor to give it a big-city vibe. Guests at Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse love the filet mignon and the filet portabella, both of which are nine-ounce cuts of meat served with penne marinara and angel hair pasta, respectively. Other favorite entrées include shrimp scampi, one-pound lasagna, fettuccine Delmonico and veal parmigiana. And, with cappuccino pie, homemade cannoli and other options on the dessert menu at Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse, guests always want to leave room for dessert.

About the restaurant

Originally known as Phoebe's Garden Café, the restaurant has a long and colorful history in Syracuse. Local lore claims that the building was originally a brothel, and Phoebe was its madam.
In the summer of 2004, Phoebe's experienced a refreshing makeover with a bright new look in the atrium dining room with fresh paint, new upholstery, and artwork. The coffee lounge also opened that year, and it became an instant hit with the surrounding university and business crowd. Those changes also warranted a new name to reflect the updated attitude and ambiance: Phoebe's Restaurant and Coffee Lounge. Classic elements of Phoebe's remain untouched—the French onion soup and enticing crème brulee, for example, but other menu items change seasonally.
The Lounge also has its own seating area and free wireless internet capabilities. Phoebe's old world charm is right at home in a revitalized area of the city.

We had a wonderful experience at Daniella’s Steakhouse. From the moment we walked in, everything was exceptional. The food was outstanding, the ambiance was warm, elegant, and inviting, and the service was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. We were there for a business dinner and also had the pleasure of celebrating a birthday, which made the evening even more special. Daniella’s provided the perfect setting for both occasions. It’s not always easy to find a restaurant that delivers on every level, but they certainly did. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional service. A memorable evening all around. We will absolutely be back!

Very good food with great service and friendly staff. Creative menu with fresh and diverse recipes. I especially enjoyed the create your own Martini menu. Quaint and quiet location you would never notice on the outside walking or driving by, but when you enter, there is a vibrant energy of people and staff who seem to love food & libations. Cheers!

We had another delicious meal at Abbiocco A Mano last night. We were in town for Homecoming Weekend at Syracuse University and brought our daughter and her roommate for dinner after they had a busy day playing in the marching band. Everything from the bread to the entrees and desserts was delicious. Parking downtown is tricky, but you can park at the Key Bank lot for a fee. I can't remember the name of our server, but she was excellent!
