We showed up for brunch according to our reservation time to celebrate my daughter's graduation as a family. We have stayed at the Omni several times & visited JD's before for both brunch and dinner without priori issues. So when we walked into the restaurant on her graduation weekend and found the restaurant entirely empty (of both guests and staff) we were confused. All of the dining area tables were filthy and had not been serviced since people last ate there. Eventually, a waiter found us, explained to us brunch was no longer being served at this time (even though when booking our table for 12.30 there was no indication on OpenTable regarding dining hours), and sat us down at one of the dirty tables to hand us a prix-fixe menu for lunch, which would be served later in the day. There were no other guests or personnel in the restaurant throughout this interaction. As it was a special occasion, we got up & left to find brunch elsewhere. Highly unexpected and disappointing result, would have appreciated clarity on dining times outright before finalizing the reservation.

Service was great!! Food was great!! There was a party in another room on the floor and children were running around screaming, in and out of the bar area. The hostess at the desk tried to bring them back to their parents, where they would then come back out running and screaming. It was hard to have a conversation when the children were doing this. I would definitrly come back and hope the kids are little more tame.

Everything from as we were greeted at the front desk, being led to our table and seated - that set the bar. The waiter Aeden and his co-workers kept glasses filled and the courses presented in good order. Each course was perfectly prepared and tasted great. I would gladly recommend the restaurant to my friends and family.

I treated my sister to brunch at John Davenport's for her birthday. We were both delighted by the ambiance - perched on the 17th floor of the hotel with panoramic views overlooking the Yale campus. The brunch was equally impressive - there were many choices and they were all delicious!

Very grateful for Omni Hotel parking. A straight shot up to the restaurant. Greeted quickly by two lovely hosts. Our server, Adam, was wonderful; treated us as friends. The food was absolutely fantastic!! Everything cooked perfectly. Fun ambiance, gorgeous view. Well... it is New Haven, so the view might not be exactly "gorgeous," but it's definitely impressive. Especially for the holidays.

We came for the Thanksgiving buffet. There was a huge selection of items from giant shrimp, crab, smoked salmon, pate and salads, followed by a choice of brined turkey, or beef, cod, duck, and ribs and more. All the other sides too, green beans, yams, mashed potatoes, mushrooms, stuffing etc. A table heaving with desert choices - apple pie, cheesecake, chocolate cake tarts tartin, and several others. It was a nice calm atmosphere cozy and luxurious. An excellent choice for Thanksgiving.

This was my second time there. First time I went to celebrate my birthday , this time it was my boyfriend birthday & his first time there(my recommendation of course). Our food was amazing, Jorydn (our server) was amazing as well . She even sung Happy Birthday to my other half. Just felt like it could’ve been more waitresses available. Jorydn was so busy all night but still have exceptional service

Braised short rib was delicious, but the horseradish potatoes were actually cold. I did send back and it came back barely warm. That was disappointing for such a fine restaurant. But I would give them another try. Service was excellent.
