Super cute restaurant but the food & timing was underwhelming. We ordered a number of menu items and everything was mediocre. The caesar salad came out 10 minutes after the rest of the entrees even though it was the only thing that didn’t require cooking. Steak came out cold and we asked to have it reheated and it was still cold unfortunately. Server was really friendly and clearly trying to keep up but otherwise was not impressed.

The bartender is a chemist. He has a degree in mixology from from Harvard. We had pre dinner drinks and it ruined our meal at a fine dining establishment because the drinks and wine DID NOT live up.

Daniel and the Dog is a great place to grab a drink. The bartender John was wonderful, very professional and interacted with all the guest at the bar. Great selections of drinks. We haven’t eaten a meal here yet but what we saw come out of the kitchen looked good. We did grab a warm cookie skillet😋
If you haven’t been yet, you need to go! We will be back next time we are in town.

What a unique new find in Boone! A cozy pub vibe with a decor to match!! The cocktail is rare crated quality cocktail w8th layers of flavor. The Waygu sliders were the best I've ever tasted. A warm friendly local feel!

We stopped by for a nightcap and dessert after a date night. The space is on the smaller side, and tables close together, which gives it a very intimate and cozy feel. Note, however, that if you’re looking for private secluded spaces, this may not be the spot.
We were able to be seated immediately upon arrival, and our server was promptly by the table to go over the menu with us. We each ordered a cocktail and the skillet chocolate chip cookie. The skillet chocolate chip cookie arrived a bit before both of our drinks, which was a bit odd considering we had waited probably 15 minutes without drinks.
As far as the cocktails, we ordered the Cynar Old Fashioned and the Buffalo Heard. The old fashioned was good, though I didn’t notice the flavor of the Cynar at all. It was very dry, which I like, but may not be for you if you like a sweeter old fashioned. The Buffalo Heard was light and refreshing, with a nice bit of the bourbon shining through. Overall, the cocktails were quite good.
It’s a unique spot, and has a lot of potential. It appears they are still ironing out a few kitchen/bar/service kinks, but I think these are all sm

Daniel and the Dog is one of those places you walk into once and know you’ll be back. Their twist on the espresso martini, the Brown Mountain Lights, is my new standard — bold, smooth, and just the right jolt to keep the night going. The loaded pomme frites? Ridiculously good. Perfectly crisp and piled high with toppings you didn’t know you needed but now can’t live without.
If you sit at the bar, hope John’s working. He makes a drink better than anyone around and has the kind of personality that makes you want to hang out all night.
This spot has officially earned its place on my favorites list. You won’t regret it.

If you have an appreciation for well made drinks this is the place to go in Boone. I have been in Boone since the 90’s and this is a warm, comfortable, respectable addition to the local community. Kingsley serves up perfection in a glass!!!!
