   Had dinner with friends. Food and service were great. Recommend the eggplant appetizer, chopped salad, and the pork chop.

   Little disappointed in the size of an espresso martini for $15. Other than that decent good and good service!

   Hello Lauren, Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m truly sorry your experience fell short of expectations, especially during such a special occasion. I understand how frustrating it must have been to not have your seating request honored and to experience slower service. This is not the standard we strive for, and I will address it with the team. I also apologize for the issues with the food and service. We aim for excellence, and we clearly missed the mark. I would love to invite you and your guests back, on us, to offer the warm, attentive service and memorable meal you deserve. Thank you again for your feedback. Warm Regards, Bradford Conroy General Manager

   We met friends for a Holiday lunch and it was fabulous! The service was on spot and our server Ricolette was perfect. She was attentive and spaced our lunch out perfectly. The eggplant is one of our favorites and today was no different. The Davidson burger, tuna salad, scallops, and steak and frites were amazing as always. I highly recommend The Davidson for lunch or dinner!!

   Probably my 4th time here and it never disappoints. The bartenders were awesome and the food was great. Will always have this as a place to go!

   We loved every aspect of our meal. The bread board butters were a nice surprise. The mushroom bisque was rich. And , even the hamburger was delicious.

   The restraunt has a great ambience, but we were not impressed with the service. It took awhile for our drinks and food to come out. The food was okay, but some of the meat was not cooked to our desire.

    The restaurant and setting were gorgeous and it's very convenient to the Square. The food was fine, but not overly flavorful or memorable (perhaps it was just what we ordered, but with 6 people we did try a variety of options). Mostly I felt for the waitstaff who, while nice, seemed stretched pretty thin, leading to spotty service and odd timings for food. We were celebrating a birthday and there was no mention of it and also no dessert menu. We are great fans of Pepp & Delores so had higher hopes for this.
