    Too dark. Excellent, attentive service. Why do you wish to require a longer commentary than the writer wishes to submit!

    There was almost no one present in my meal came out cold. I sent it back and they heated it up but it led to the prime rib being overcooked. It was pretty disappointed by the quality of the food.

    Wonderful evening, great service, and fabulous atmosphere! We were there to celebrate my sons white coat ceremony and I chose the spot after reading some recommendations. John Davenport’s did not disappoint. Fabulous appetizers and the service was impeccable! We had the fried calamari/shrimp and fish taco appetizers. Both were outstanding.  For dinner, we had short ribs and goat cheese salad with grilled shrimp. Both were fantastic. Highly recommend and I will definitely return.
