This place has become our favorite place for celebrating anything. Food is delicious and service is always great. Brewery beer on point. My husband loves the salad selection and I think the calamari is the best. Parking is also convenient since it's under the restaurant.

Sunday brunch was delicious, we had the pancakes and farmhouse meal (eggs, potatoes, bread, fruit instead of bacon). Portions were slightly smaller than the average American restaurant, but quality was excellent. Noise level was a little rowdy, not to complain, but to point out that some guests really enjoyed their cocktails :)

The bartender was absolutely spectacular. He was knowledgeable about the four draught beers and expressed thoughtful opinions about the menu that were helpful when we ordered appetizers. The waitress was a frantic Cincinnati Bengals fan and kept us informed of all the game developments as well as giving us strong information on the menu, all of which was delicious. The eggplant, the mushroom soup which pays homage to the restaurant that used to be there, and the fondue collectively were worth a visit. The homemade pasta was flawless, and the chicken was the best my date had ever had . I highly recommend the Davidson.
