   Wasn’t a great experience. We felt rushed by our waitress. But worse we were placed in a table for 2… and then 2 more people were placed right next to us. We were talking over each other. And there were tons of other tables. Not sure why they had to do that. Made the meal uncomfortable. We liked the place based on the last time we were there…. Now not sure I would come back

   The Moroccan appetizer was outstanding! The cannelloni was the best and don’t forget to add the crumbled pork.

   Good food from a limited menu with marginal service. The atmosphere will remind you of your high school cafeteria. There are too many good restaurants in Cincinnati. I will not return to The Davidson.

   The Food and Experience was great. I use a wheelchair to get around. I needed to be sent through a side door and storage space to get in. Staff was very accomodating and great. It does seem that there should have been a better plan for folks with different abilities trying to dine there. Only way through the front door is a step. We made the reservation through Open table to try something new to us. We would go back for food and service. I hope they realize how many people just roll by and don't attempt to go in.

   Menu was interesting, but service took away from experience.

   Hi Heather, Thanks for sharing your feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the menu and found the flavors to your liking However. I’m sorry to hear that the service didn’t meet the high standards we strive to provide. Timing issues and forgetting the ketchup are certainly not the experience we aim to create, especially given how much we value the details that make dining memorable. We will address the issues you’ve raised to our team to improve the flow of service. I know how much these moments matter, we’ll be doing everything we can to ensure a smoother experience in the future. We’d love to have another opportunity to serve you to provide the experience you deserve. If you’d like to reach out directly, we’d be more than happy to make things right. Warm Regards, Bradford Conroy General Manager

   First time. Ate at the bar. Was great. Food was good and the staff was awesome. Had steak which was good. Next time I am going for the burger. Oh and get the eggplant.

   Loved every single dish we got. Sat in the outdoor patio and would have preferred to sit inside.

    We had a great experience at the Davidson. The restaurant was very busy and chaotic but the service from the bartenders Emmett, Elita, and Chris would make you think we were their only table! My sister was visiting from out of town and said it was the best meal she's had in Cincinnati :)
