   We had to cancel our meal and leave because it took 45 minutes to get our appetizer and we had to be at a Broadway show. I booked a reservation 90mins before the show and we hadn’t even gotten salads by 7:20. We ended up having to run to the Aronoff to make the show on time. A bummer because we love this place.

   Drew, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I’m truly sorry for the frustration you experienced. I can only imagine how disappointing it must have been to miss out on your meal and rush to the show. We strive to offer both great food and excellent service in a timely manner, and I regret that we didn’t meet that standard for you. I’d love to invite you back, on us, and personally ensure you have the experience you expected. We genuinely want to make things right and show you the kind of hospitality we’re known for. Please reach out to me directly, and I’ll will make that reservation for you. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Warm Regards, Bradford Conroy General Manager

   The food was great as usual. The kitchen was very slow but our server was apologetic and comped our drinks despite the fact that we never complained. The restaurant is comfortable and a hot spot, but just a bit too noisy for easy conversation. Food pricing is very reasonable for a restaurant of this quality.

    Love the ambiance of The Davidson and especially all the windows looking onto Fountain Square area. The food is good and the vibe is fun. I would recommend that you stay away from their special cocktails. I have ordered one during each of my visits and they both have been underwhelming and light on alcohol so not worth it.
