Daniela, hailing from the shores of Sicilia, brings with her that trait characteristic of Italian singers called bel canto. Though she is a jazz singer and not from the Opera tradition, her voice is always supported with proper breathing, tonicity and posture. She demonstrates vocal ease from top to bottom of her range in gorgeous tone! Her piano playing is equal in quality to that of her vocal skills.


We have structured our jazz spot and restaurant on the supper club model. Eating and drinking is how you help us to maintain our weekly offering of Boston's premier jazz artists! Bon Appétit!


ABOUT THELONIOUS MONKFISH:
We're passionate about ethnic flavors & jazz, and so we’ve branded our unique take on sushi & Asian specialties: Thelonious Monkfish. Nothing warms the palate like an explosion of flavor or the heart like a burst of song! Chef Ginger loves to jam on Asian culinary themes! Her menu reflects both gustatory tradition and a sense of play and innovation.


Live jazz, sushi, and our personal interpretation of Japanese, Thai, Chinese + Vietnamese cuisines are the mediums through which we hope to disperse kindness + loving service. Nestled in Central Square between MIT and Harvard University, we serve Cambridge + Boston's hungry students, professors, professionals, tourists + business people. Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings, Boston's top jazz performers create a cool vibe on our Jazz Baroness Room stage–one of the many ways we aim to enhance your dining experience!
