    Terrible service . Didn’t see a waiter for over 20 minutes. Extremely slow service. They ran out of most of food entrees. Asked to see a manager and nobody ever came . Ruined my night

    Great restaurant and food… only gave 4 stars for overall experience because it took long to receive food & drinks but I know it’s because it was Valentine’s Day and they were super busy… love it, would definitely try again

    We had a great time. Great server (Jazz? she had heart earrings on) and great food and service. Everything was terrific. We used to frequent Mr. Holley's restaurants and got out of the habit during Covid. We're back. I assure you we will be back.

    Host was great and seated me immediately along with my reservation of course. Our waiter was fantastic as well, and recommended great options. The food was delicious and the playlist was perfect. I will visit again soon.

    The food and server were great my only complaint is that when my wife and I arrived and stood in front of the host, they were on the phone and did not acknowledge us until the phone call ended. Overall good but that being the first interaction left an impression.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants. We dine here often. The food and the ambiance is star rated. I am vegan and they did everything to ensure that I had a vegan dinner! It was delicious, my husband loved the duck which is always excellent in taste and full of flavor! I rate this a golden five star rating!!

    I have been a frequent customer at Davis Street ever since it opened several years ago. I have always found it to be very friendly with excellent and attentive service. And the food has also always been exceptional in content, preparation, presentation and taste. What else do you want?

    Davis Street is located right next to a large apartment complex and parking can be difficult as there is limited availability and you are fighting with apartment visitors. The staff was incredibly friendly and service was good. The decor is decent and it has a nice ambiance about it. The real downside is that the quality of the food is mediocre. We got the branzino with crabmeat and the prime ribeye. I like the brazino has crispy skin, but is otherwise not much flavor. The crabmeat tasted like mild crab, and for me at least, doesn't add anything to the branzino. The ribeye was a huge let down. It was papery thin (1/4 inch thick?), something you might find at a local grocery store. It had a good crust, but wasn't soft and smooth like you expect ribeye. In other words, it doesn't seem like it has much fat content which you would expect with ribeye. We also got potatoes in bacon fat, which sounds fancy, but tastes just like fries. The biggest disappointment was the cost. The price of the food is very high. The steak was more expensive than what you would pay at a dedicated steak house (like Capital Grille) and at a fraction of the taste and quality.

    This place plays way too much, LOL! There should be a warning label that says highly addictive if you consume here. First of all, the charbroiled oysters are the absolute best. They give you five to an order which leads to a fight on who’s gonna get 3 or 2. The shrimp appetizer will make you slap somebody and they are served in portions of three, another fight incurs. The lobster bisque is very creamy and comes with your very own pastry lobster. When it comes to customer service everyone was so accommodating, sweet , and showed great hospitality. I give this place a two piece with a pepper and a side of coleslaw, in other words a 9 out of 10! Love this place.

    My friends and I had a lovely dining experience starting with the beatiful wing back chairs in which we were seated. The food was excellent. The coconut cake delicious. The wine flight just right. Definitely recommend trying it.
