   Overall a good experience, but also rather disappointing. We did book a seat on the patio about a month in advance, but were seated inside because the patio had been rented out. This was rather disappointing, but they did make up for it with a free glass of wine. Food was great, and there was plenty to take home after we finished. I was very disappointed with how the food was thrown into the to-go boxes. They took the food back to box up for us, which is great, however they didn’t take much care when doing so. They put the mashed potatoes, which had a very delicious, yet runny red sauce on it in the same box as a hamburger. This led to a very soggy burger bun. Very disappointed to see this, as the overall experience of the restaurant was good.

   My husband and I had had our first visit to The Davidson on Sunday evening. We were nicely greeted by several hosts upon entry at 5:45. Our server was fabulous! Our dinner very good. We decided upon the eggplant which was incredible. Neither of us are eggplant eaters, but the finishing touches is were prepared table side. My husband had the pork which he loved, and I had the burger. We finished with the dessert of the Pot de Creme. Yummy! The only issue I had was with the music. I sound old. It included tunes from my high school /college days, (Bob Seger, The Rolling Stones, as well as tunes I would dance to at the Lighthouse in Clifton) that was ok, but upon entry, it was way too loud. Just something I was not expecting. As the night progressed, either I got use to it, but I believe it was they turned down the volume. The evening was delightful, and we plan to return.

   Went for Valentines weekend and everything was exceptional! This was our first time to The Davidson. Fun upscale atmosphere, delicious food and excellent service. We had a table right next to the kitchen and it was fun to see all of the dishes coming out. Manager also visited our table to welcome and thank us for coming. Will absolutely be coming back!

   We ate at The Davidson for Valentine’s Day dinner and had an amazing experience! The staff was so kind and handed out roses to all the tables which was such a sweet touch. Every dish we had was incredible, especially the arancini and the vodka rigatoni. The bread and butters were also delicious and my husband loved his scallop dish! The only thing we were slightly bummed about was being seated in the heated patio area as the inside is so beautifully designed, but it was still a lovely meal and warm! Can’t wait to go back again!

   Some of the best cocktails I’ve had! The service was impeccable. We ordered the veggie salad which I would 100% recommend. It was delicious! I ordered the scallops, they were a little too salty and very small… hard to compare since I eat them often in Florida. The steak was cooked perfectly and the fries were outstanding! The bartenders were awesome and we loved our server.
