We are a division of Riley's Restaurant, 312 Park St., on the Northside of Syracuse.  If you haven't eaten there, you don't know what you're missing.  One of Riley's most unique features is that the menu is never the same.  New menus are created daily to incorporate the latest recipes, and the freshest ingredients.  This gives the chefs at Riley's the creative outlet to create new and delicious dishes, ensuring a different experience for every visit.  At Darwin, we are using this concept to bring classic dishes from around the country right here to downtown Syracuse.
 
So far we've borrowed from New York City, Chicago, New Orleans, Texas, Boston, California.  Each week we will continue to introduce a new sandwich on our lunch menu.
So, if you've had "the best sandwich ever" from someplace in your travels, we'd love to hear about it.  You never know what will end up on our board...
