Daniel's Cafe

Food was great, a bit pricey but great. Would have been 5 stars but the concept of calling ahead for a sandwich seems odd. This concept would seem to push away new customers that walk in for the first time, which was the case for my coworker. Seems they get plenty of business, perhaps they should try shifting away from call aheads.

Drove up for a burrito and was told they only take call ins.

The flavors of gelato seem to change fairly often but we've yet to try one we don't like. My daughter loves to come here and I don't blame her.... friendly staff, generous tasting, locally owned, and super quick service all adds up to two happy customers 💙💙💙

I went to this place cause it says it has breakfast that you can eat in the store. Junk! You have to call ahead of time and put in an order. It makes no sense. If that is the case, why can't you just take my order and I sit at the table and await my terms as a normal restuarant? Very frustrating, I did not even get to eat the food. I have had the ice cream at this place (Mary's gelato). It is okay, nothing amazing for the price.

We like to eat both lunch and gelato here. The owner really seems to care about the customer, and he does his best to provide a pleasant experience. The last 2 times however, the owner was not there, and the service was bad and the place was dirty. The food areas (salad bar and gelato area) had food particles all around them. My gelato SAMPLE even had a chunk of something foreign in it (like a piece of meat). I hate to give a bad review of a place we tend to enjoy, but if the owner is not there, we will probably not stop, next time.

The smartest minds on Earth start their day with these breakfast burritos! Great sandwiches and Gelato. Owner Dan the Ice-cream man is a pillar of a world wide community of the finest minds on the planet.

3 stars is generous. We have enjoyed several previous visits. However, today was not good.
Two young guys running the place; service ...what service?
Tables were not wiped off, floor was dirty. Sandwiches were okay but not near the quality as before. Probably won't return.

Smelled delicious when we walked in, but the guy at the counter told us it would be an hour wait. There was absolutely no one in the restaurant. We apparently have to call in our order if we don't want to wait a ridiculous amount of time. I have never been to a business that doesn't try to put priority on customers in the actual restaurant. Definitely turned me off to trying this place again.

We were here visiting Bandelier right before Thanksgiving, and were very happy Daniel's was open. We got sandwiches, which were delicious. I got the pastrami, which I definitely recommend. We also got gelato, a fantastic end to the meal. The service was fantastic-they suggested things to do and places to get great views. Really appreciated it!

One of our favorite places in town to grab lunch. The owner, who typically mans the counter during lunch, is very attentive and kind. The food is simple and good. Save room for dessert as the gelato is very good!
