Decided to try out Davis Restaurant & Bar for a date night out in Eugene. Overall a good experience and the presentation of the food was gorgeous. Service was a little slow but not too painful.
The steak was cooked to perfection and pared extremely well with the greens and potatoes. Typically it comes with sauce but the restaurant was accommodating and will to leave it off (a personal preference).
The salmon too was cooked to perfection and all elements of the plate had bold flavors. Personally when all together the boldness clashes but individually it was delicious.
For desert was the hazelnut tart. It looked so good I forgot to take a picture before the first bite. Definitely one of the best desserts I have had in a while.

The atmosphere is cute, and the staff is very attentive and nice. I ordered the Davis Mac. The noodles were over cooked, they gave me chicken was grisly. They gave me shrimp instead, but that wasn’t as good as I hoped also. They made up for it, but I would not go back.

Made the reservation online via Google and asked for a more secluded booth and was not disappointed. Very cozy booth by the bar. We were there for our anniversary dinner. The host/bartender who’s name I forgot but wore an excellent turnip shirt was so nice and very quick to our every need. I had the elderberry elixir cocktail and highly recommend if you like ginger! We ordered the focaccia and deviled eggs for appetizers both of which were lovely. For entrees we ordered the kebab and the pork tenderloin. I was not a fan of the mustard brine and my spouse was kind enough to switch and said it was very good with the pears and had a good acidity.
The kebab itself is very heavy but the hummus, relish and curried naan are delicious!

Will definitely be back for appetizers and cocktails. I’ll pass on the main dishes for now.

I have been meaning to write a review for The Davis for quite a while, and thought I should now. I have had dinner here many many times over the years and I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal or experience. I think it is one of the most underrated restaurants in Eugene. I love to go out to eat and The Davis is consistently delicious and a great atmosphere for partners, friends, or whoever else you love to eat with. When they have their raw oysters they are my favorite in town, and I think their Salmon is cooked better than any place locally that I’ve had it, and it’s extremely reasonably priced for the quantity and quality.
The drinks on the cocktail menu are creative and delicious, and they have good wine with multiple varieties available by the glass. The service is always wonderful, and I’ve never noticed a wait for food/drinks even when it is busy for dinner. I have many pictures of my food from over the years but attached are some recents!

10/10 Service. Great atmosphere. Robert, the waiter is absolutely incredible. It was my friend’s Birthday, he was completely on top of all 6 orders and constant drinks. Friendly & professional. We even got him to sing my friend Happy Birthday & take a GREAT photo of us all! Such a gentleman. Drinks were very well made. The food was AMAZING. Definitely suggest trying the Baby Kale Cesar Salad and Ahi Tuna! Yum!
I will definitely be back!

Our cocktails and food were exceptional. My husband ordered shrimp and grits and said it was “the best he’s had in a long time.” I had a burger which was cooked perfectly and you could tell all the ingredients were house made. The service was kind of slow but I chalk that up to them seeming under staffed, our server was apologetic and overall very pleasant. Will definitely go again!

Returned to The Davis to enjoy pre-show dinner before Hamilton. It was a celebratory dinner made even more special when we learned we were lucky enough to sample the new Spring Menu being prepped by the new Chef “Willy” Wilton. Holy wow. He was so charming and freaking talented.
We started with an amazing Ahi Tuna Crudo: melt in your mouth tuna was so delicious with the fresh citrus — we inhaled it. The fantastic Hot Honey Salmon Bites reminiscent of beloved hush puppies and fritters was a fantastic texture with beautiful presentation. There was also a new take on their popular Deviled Eggs: red peppers and leeks. One of us who typically won’t eat deviled eggs loved this incarnation especially with the classic bacon. The parsley sprig with sliced red radish garnish added the right freshness. Lastly the bright and appealing beet salad in smooth balsamic did not disappoint with its simplicity and the beautiful creaminess brought by the cheese. If this is the shape of things to come for 2025, the new menu promises to be worth experiencing time and again.

One of us had to have the oysters on the half shell which were exceptionally fresh and came with an excellent ginger mignonette. (6/$20) For entrées we had: the pan fried salmon which was absolutely perfectly cooked. The steak frites came out remarkably flavorful and tender in demiglace. But the all time table favorite was still the tender pan-fried shrimp and cheesy grits with a kick.

We had two bottles of champagne from their outstanding champagne list. Hands-down table favorite was the bottle of Pierre Gimonnet & Fils’ “Gastronome” — recommend by the owner when we didn’t know what to try for our second bottle. Highly recommend the “Gastronome” if you’re looking for an exceptionally elegant bottle of bubbles to share. So crisp and bright — it was an absolute pleasure to drink it.

Reservations strongly recommended. The Davis was packed as we headed to the theatre.

My first time visiting this Eugene institution. My friend Mari brought me here as a welcome dinner since I am visiting from abroad.

Food is really on point and it’s immediately recognizable that the ingredients come from local producers and are high quality.

I’m a certified sommelier and was really impressed by their champagne selection. As we were celebrating all the great things life brings us, and catching up with old friends and new, we got a 2017 vintage Thierry Triolet and it packed all the brioche notes, tang and elegance of a Blanc de Blanc.

We began with the chef’s board- cheese and meats garnished with pickled veggies, nuts and preserves. I learn that all the meats are cured and prepared in house. I like that one of the meats was served warm- super tender pork that had melt in your mouth fat

Shrimp and Grits, the salmon, and the tuna crudo with strawberry made more a seafood feast that I need not critique- all well dialed in.

Perhaps I would like a little more acidity in the crudo, but I think my mind is just imagining it were ceviche.

We had crème brûlée and coffee to finish.

Service was great and the place really feel homey and welcoming.

Met the owner who is a class act! Will be back before I leave Eugene.

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Eugene!! The food was superb in flavor, presentation, and price point. The atmosphere was the perfect vibe and energy. Get dressed up or show up how you are, as a family or for two, certainly you will have an unforgettable date night. Cocktails were on point. Tasty and strong as well as visually pleasing. Not sure how it has taken 5 years to find this restaurant but now that I have it is my #1. Highly recommend!

After a very difficult day my husband and I decided to plan a special date night. I chose here because I wanted a steak so I made a reservation on Google for Friday night at 6:30pm. When we arrived there was no wait and plenty of tables open so I requested a booth for comfortability (I have chronic pain) and the gentleman seemed hesitant to give it to us. When my husband sat down it was sticky so I asked the server if he had a rag to wipe it and he happily did so.

Unfortunately he didn’t bother to check on us once but checked on the couple at the table right next to us a few times which felt like he did so on purpose. I asked my husband if he noticed that or if it was just me, and he agreed it seemed intentional. Thankfully a kind lady checked on us once we got our food.

Our food took almost 40 minutes (the Mac for my husband and the steak for me) and when it finally arrived it was delicious but not jaw dropping. however, my husband didn’t mention that this is the first steak he’s seen that was actually done medium well. I thought my dish would have paired better with green beans but the green salad thing was adequate and I like trying new things. My husband said the dish tasted mostly like BBQ sauce which he doesn’t love and that he didn’t really enjoy the beer, a hazy something; the options were pretty limited for beer.

When we were almost done with our food and my husband went to the bathroom, the same lady gave us a dessert menu. I asked if there was any dairy free dessert from the 3 options and she mentioned one of them was coconut milk based. I was expecting the check as well but that took almost 10 minutes to receive. The servers were just standing there, and still, there was no line. There was a gentleman who walked in and I think went to the bar but quickly left the building who seemed very disgruntled and muttering words I couldn’t hear. This added to the odd atmosphere. maybe they took too long to get him his food too. I really wanted dessert but I did not want to wait probably another 30 minutes for it so we decided to wrap up.

Due to my chronic pain I have to stand after sitting for a while and stretch so I began to do so. I was hoping that would cue the gentleman to bring us our check but it did not. He seemed to be ignoring us. My husband had to wave down the lady and ask for a box and the check.

We were there for a total of 1 hour and 40 minutes with little to no service and spent about $80. I’m really disappointed with the service at the Davis and wish I had chosen a different place. Still debating between two and three stars. I hope this was just an off day for them like it was for me.
