    Fantastic service from the hostess through table service. The bartender was great to talk to and get the details of the menu and restaurant. The wait staff was fun and right on top of things. The menu had great variety and the quality of dishes once plated exceeded expectations. We tried and shared everything from escargot, octopus, lamb, oxtail ragú, and steak. The finish was just as good with some espresso, mascarpone cheesecake, and crème brûlée. The decor was also very pleasing and well appointed.

    We had dinner at David’s last night. Service and ambiance were excellent but food was underwhelming. The bread was difficult to chew, steak was cooked perfectly but slightly cool, risotto and soup were lukewarm. The staff were friendly and attentive and seemed to go the extra mile, just slightly disappointed in our meals.

    Service was excellent. Super snazzy place, yet not pretentious, at all. It's clean, good lighting, nice booths. The food was perfect. We had scallops, and lamb. These guyz are the real deal. Fairly spendy, as was expected. Exactly what you're looking for in fine dining

    Amelia Island cucumber infused martini was refreshing and the seasonal caprese salad was excellent! Filet Oscar with the lobster tail never disappoints.

    The food was amazing and our server, Marley was the best. Second time we have had the pleasure of her friendly and knowledgeable work. Her assistant Helen was great too. The surf and turf was to die for and the scallops were amazing, so says my wife. We will be back. Best restaurant in Fernandina. Yes expensive but well worth it.
    David's Restaurant & LoungeResponded 6 days ago
    Bob, thank you for your feedback about your menu selections and kind words in regard to the service you received from both Marley and Helen! We appreciate your continued support, and we are highly anticipating you and your wife's next visit.

    The food was superb, service was excellent. The couple behind us had no clue about using inside voices and it was a little disconcerting. The sea bass is so good! The atmosphere is nice.

    Absolutely amazing experience. Our server was so lovely and kind, our food was outstanding (mom and I both got the filet mignon and split the crème brûlée). The only downside is that it is a pricey place, but it was worth it and I would absolutely come back!!!
