Tom Colicchio (teasing): "Hey! It's a croquette. What do you know?"

Danny: "It felt right. It's a lionfish croquette with a gouda cheese sauce and a little slaw on top."

Gail Simmons: "So the cheese is not in the binding?"

Danny: "No, I didn't want it to just get weird."

Judges

"I liked the fact that your cheese and your dish was different than everybody else. The only thing, I didn't get a lot of lionfish in there. It was a lot of the batter."

"Overall, that texture. I'm a big fan. "
