Daily Grill - Fresno

The restaurant is located on the North End of Fresno nestled between two of Fresno’s most affluent residential areas. Daily Grill is one of Fresno’s finest gems. With it’s fine décor, high ceilings, and attractive booths, modeled after the great big city grills of the 30s and 40s, Daily Grill serves traditional American fare. Featuring Genuine Angus Steaks and Chops, Fresh Seafood, Classic Cobb and Caesar Salads, Meat Loaf with Mashed Potatoes, Chicken Pot Pie and not-to-be-missed Desserts, all served in a sophisticated yet casual atmosphere by servers that really care about the guest's experience. We also boast the best Martini and Happy Hour in town. Two adjoining Private Dining Rooms seating up to 40 guests each are the perfect place for business meetings or family celebrations. Dine-in and Take-out is available.

"The quality of the food was somewhat disappointing, especially for the cost. We have been here previously, and were disappointed the last time which was unusual from our past history. We considered that an anomaly and tried it again. The food was not "bad" per se, but was not what we would expect for the price paid. It was bland in taste, and nothing we couldn't get elsewhere. We have recommended the restaurant in the past, but would not do so now."

"I took my mom to the Daily Grill for her 88th birthday lunch. She had suffered a heart attack a year and a half earlier
So this was her first restaurant outing since then. We had
A ball! Our server was gracious and attentive, the food was great,
The staff had followed my special instructions to the letter.
In short, I was so pleased to have chosen The Daily Grill for
Our celebration.

"Service was horrible, had to wait 15 minutes for anyone to realize we were sitting there waiting for our drink order to be taken. Waitress was weird and would walk buy and look at us, then come back a few seconds later. I'm not sure what happened to their customer service but it is not what it used to be. I will not be going back. Guess the north side is loosing their touch, really unfortunatiate."

"2 GUEST ONLY; THE FOOD WAS VERY GOOD, THE DRINKS WERE GOOD. SEVERAL MISTAKES MADE BY SERVER REGARDING DRINKS AND FOOD- SERVED US THE WRONG FOOD, POORED WINE INTO THE INCORRECT WINE GLASS.
SAT US NEXT TO A FAMILY OF POORLY BEHAVED KIDS, HAD TO TALK OVER THEM TO BE HEARD ACROSS THE TABLE. CHILDREN SPILLING OUT INTO THE AISLE. SERVER JUST STEPPED OVER THEM AS OPPOSED TO SUGGESTING TOT HE PARENTS THAT THEY "GATHER" THEM UP AND CONTAIN THEM.

"Everything was fantastic until it came to the dessert. We got the fruit cobbler to go. In my opinion it was inedible. It tasted like a stale tortilla crust, VERY sour apples and berries and a mushy "crumble" on top. No redeeming quality. Yuck! Throwing away a $7 dessert was disappointing."
