Had a quick soup supper before a play at Broadway Rose and had a great bowl of navy bean soup just like my grandmother used to make! I was thrilled to find it. Plan to go back when in the area. Thanks for the memories! read more

Have been here a few times since arriving in Portland. Very low key and old school, good diner style food, but a little too casual. Today we arrived and were promptly seated and forgotten. There is a waiter, who waited on us that's time we were there, who appears to be 'burnt out'. He was focused everywhere but on us. He was overwhelmed last time with 2 tables, today there was a party of six and that must have sent him over the edge. That said there was no management oversight. So we sat for 15 minutes until we watched people seated after us getting orders taken. We got up and left. Went down the street to Elmer's and we're sure we had food before we'd have ever gotten it at Davidson's. We mentioned the confused waiter to the manager the last time we were there, clearly his last name is either Davidson or they just don't care anymore. Oh well, we won't be back. read more

I go here every friday. I like their homemade soups and pies. Never bad, never great, but always very good.

Listen, if you want some good old fashioned diner style food this is the place to go. Don't go to Elmer's, don't go to Shari's, come here! They have the same great buttermilk pancakes as The original Pancake house, and offer a pretty killer chicken fried steak. In the evenings they have classics like pot roast and they offer a variety of sandwiches both hot and cold for the lunch hour. They also make a solid cherry pie and offer specials year round for seasonal favorites like apple and pumpkin. read more

The selection is pretty good. We thought that kids eat free but I guess that special went away. The food is decent enough.

Pretty decent food. Shakes are awesome and so was the coleslaw.

Expensive and not a whole lot on there menu. Food was decent but nothing to brag about. Probably wont come back here again.

We love Davidson's. They offer family style fare in a relaxed and comfortable setting. The food is high quality, excellent taste, and cost effective. Try the pie. After breakfast? Why not? Life is short. read more

Adorable little diner with the best root beer floats yet. Their menu seems endless, and their special seasonal dessert deals ($1 strawberry shortcake, 50 cents for an apple pie. etc.) are hard to beat. The service is warm and homey, and it is also awesome that they hire from the local high school. Glad to have this diner in my neighborhood! read more

Food was ok they were really busy being dad's day. Portions were kinda small but was good. Might go back might not. read more

My son and I's go to place on Sunday sometimes Saturday mornings. They know us and are very friendly. Good breakfasts and love that they have fresh squeezed orange juice!! That's the best part, in case you haven't heard. read more

Best fish & chips ever! The tarter sauce was amazing too. My only disappointment was the boring cinnamon roll. It was terrible.

They have really good salads, actually. The decor is very casual, unless you have a booth, you are having intimate conversation with the people around you. The place is clean. The customers are definitely on the elderly side, bring your patients. Service has always been very good. Really, my only complaint is that the prices are very high. Bannings is very similar in terms of decor. They also has exceptional salads and home made pie, but the prices are much better. read more

This was our first visit and what we ate was very good. Everyone was very nice Brianna, Greg (especially) and the hostess. I ordered the French dip and it is was SO good that I was disappointed that there wasn't more after my last bite. My husband had the coney dog and he enjoyed it as well. For a Sunday evening before 6 this place was busy but we got seated right away. I bought a cinnamon roll to go; you can't beat their price for this huge roll! We will definitely be back! read more

Our server Olivia was so nice, and very efficient. I would go back just for the great service!

VERY friendly staff, clearly a place locals frequent as the servers seemed to know a lot of people eating there. Our server was really nice, and very attentive. I got a chicken enchilada with bean dip salsa, sour cream, olives....it was amazing, very flavorful which is hard to come by for a non Mexican based restaraunt. Good for breakfast lunch or dinner--large variety of food, and really good milkshakes! read more

My home away from home!! Been gobbling it down here for YEARS now!! So dependable and I cannot think of anytime I was not satisfied. This is the mainstay we bring out of town visitors to! EVERYTHING is good and well thought out. Even the Mexican. Try the Chicken Chilie Verde Enchilada. Tender breast meat smothered in their delicious sauce.. MMmmmm!! Even their chips and dip are good.. Get the warm bean sauce with the chips. The rice and beans are real clean, and the bite of Polenta at the end is sweet. I've recommended the Club sandwich to many just to see it work like quicksand. They wade in all happy and excited to then find themselves up to their neck in goodness. Keep a rope handy to pull them out though. I've only seen a couple make it all the way through to the other side. The Hot Turkey (get it to go, they'll package seperately so no soggy) sandwich was my Mom's favorite. She'd sit quietly over on the side chewing with this beatific smile on her face dipping into the REAL mashed potatoes & gravy, but don't get your fingers TOO close, she'd snap'em off like a Pit Bull! Breakfast??? Tip-Top all the way around ('cept maybe the Ham Steak), and do NOT miss the freshly squeezed OJ... Right ON!!!! The waitstaff is absolutely superior and don't miss getting a coupla chocolate chip cookies or a Cinnamon Roll as you check out. Use your receipt for a discount at the car wash in the parking lot. Now go home and take a nap yew mean widdew kid, and rest up so you can come back for the Dinner Special. The Swedish Meatballs for one will have you talking like the Muppets' Swedish Chef : "First you take der Boom-Boom, den you choots der Duck!!" Have fun gang!! P.S.~ONLY reason I don't put 5 stars? 'Cuz I wanna appear "Tuff"..... P.S.S.~Hey!!! WAITASECOND!!! "I" am one-a those "OLD GUYS" now!!! Thank GAWD my ~tastebuds~ still work, you whippersnappers!! PSsss~ Never have had a burger here.. 'Ya Dingbat Kid!! Go to Dick's Kitchen or 5 guys fer THAT... You poor misbegotten Uth!!! Then again, get some cojones and think outside the box: Get a burger with mustard, pickle, a BIG ASS tomato slice, maybe some cheese, and a sloshing of Davidson's "Coney" sauce (like chili) and you'll be OK Lad... read more

This is our favorite Tigard restaurant. The food is always good and for the most part the service is good too. Our favorite is either their fish and chips, club sandwich or the oriental chicken salad. During the early summer their homemade raspberry pie is crazy good but they sell out of it a lot. read more

Good local joint with delicious sandwiches and desserts for 0.25$. Awesome tater tots and pies !!

Great local breakfast spot. Very friendly and everything I have had here is homemade and yummy. Had biscuits and gravy today for mother's day, which was very good and tasted homemade. They were also giving a rose to all the moms! It was not too packed which was a nice change from the craziness at other breakfast spots on a Sunday morning. This is our local basic bfast stand by! read more

Delicious breakfast! Don't let the looks of the outside fool you. Service is friendly and food arrives in a timely manner.

This place was great. Good meatloaf and that's hard to find in a restaurant. I got peach pie to go which looks amazing but I was too full to eat it! If you are there on Navy bean soup day, don't have the salad. Have soup! I hope you enjoy as much as we did! read more

22 cent pie special going on. Very busy, so much so that I would say more space is needed if it is that crowded often. Pie was good, if not very small. read more

I think the service and food are really good! I've never had a problem there. Every time I have gone its been awesome!

Hadn't been here in many years. Went the other night and ordered a shredded beef burrito supreme. Gotta just say it was pretty awesome. Staff was very nice and very attentive to make sure everything was as it should be. Thought about ordering the halibut, but it was pretty pricey. Four piece fish & chips dinner was $24.95. Burrito and coke was only $12 and a heckuva deal at that. read more

For years I've started most mornings with breakfast at one place or another on my drive into work. Finding a spot that opens at 6:00 or earlier is not an easy task. Davidson's is my new (permanent?) favorite. Renee is here most mornings and is quick with coffee refills and pleasant to be around. The food comes quickly and is delicious, especially if you're a fan of crisp bacon. The coffee was included in my morning special ( most places won't pass up the opportunity to charge an extra $3 for that). I have no reason to ever go anywhere else. Gotta go, foods here! read more

Davidson's decor is really dated. The food was good, tho 10-15% high in price in my opinion. The service was acceptable. Wish they could've gotten rid of the flies that pestered us in the rather small dining room. The 1$ special strawberry shortcake was a funny joke. The parking lot is shared by a self serve car wash & jiffy lube. On the fence to whether we'll return. It was just okay read more

Meh, not that good. Portions a little small for the price and the food was just ok, not bad but no better than I'd do at home Staff was friendly though read more

We eat here regularly and have for years. Over the years the service and food have been consistently good. This is the traditional roadside diner with a pretty diverse menu. There are a lot of regular local customers which is one sign of a consistent local gem. read more

Love their breakfast and their service! Very nice place. Really like coming here with my mom for the pancakes.

Will never go back to this establishment. Service was awful and food was ice cold. Pretty expensive for bacon and eggs. Server needs to wear gloves when putting on orange slices for garnish. So disappointing! read more

Just picked up our dinner. For years,I have loved their Chinese Chicken Salad. Recipie change or just forgotten. Not at all what I have had in the past. Chick and slaw. That was it corn bread dry or old . Won't be returning. read more

I ate here for the first time and it was so very good. Lots of food. Can't wait to go back...!!!

Was impressed with the variety on the menu. Have wanted to try this place out for a while as I drive by it daily. Maybe I picked the wrong item??? I had the sliced turkey on bread with potatoes and gravy. Honestly, it was like eating high school cafeteria food. Nothing really special, potatoes where not good... almost everything was overly bland which probably suits the older clientele that eats here regularly. I will pass on this place before going back. read more

This is a great place to eat! Family friendly, comfortable environment, super friendly staff and AMAZING food! Would definitely recommend to all my friends and family! Ask about their "Kids (12 and under) also eat FREE with a purchase of 1 adult entree MONDAY- FRIDAY!" ENJOY! read more

Just moved to the area so we thought we would try the food we've been hearing so much about. Ordered the food to go from a very nice lady named Dawn, who remembered that I said the soup was for my daughter's lunch the next day and packed it up perfectly for her. That kind of service will always bring us back! We had the chicken chimichanga, chicken Verde enchiladas, the clam chowder, and a piece of the French silk pie. The chowder was to die for! Mexican food was plentiful and fresh. The French silk pie doesn't seem like the norm because it is very thick and rich but was good nevertheless. Can't wait to try their weekly specials. read more

I loved this place. A real old school diner. No, not haute cuisine, but real diner food made with real ingredients. Not too far off the highway and a perfect road trip dinner stop. read more

I've reviewed this restaurant a time or two after it was sold to the new owners. (Greg, why did you and your brother sell this? It's just not the same.) The new owners wrote back asking me to give them another chance so I did, but this time it was a take out order (due to Covid-19) for two people. We would not have gone inside to eat even if we could have done so based on how dirty the place was and the rude service we received the last two times we were there. Watery "lumpy-roux" broccoli soup, rubbery overcooked halibut pieces priced way too high, etc. All I can say is, I'm staying with my former reviews - all one star - and we will continue to patronize Bannings (as will our twice-weekly "lunch bunch of 20 friends,") which is about a mile or so down Hwy. 99W on the left side of the highway if you're going towards Portland. Davidson's just isn't Davidson's anymore. Even Shari's in King City is better than this. read more

Great place for traditional American breakfast ! almost always a table ready unlike the more "popular" breakfast places nearby, no 1 hour waits here. Plus the seasonal menu items like peach pie and strawberry sundaes are great, some are only like 35 cents. read more

I love hitting random local diners, but this one just didn't work too well for me. I may have had the wrong things, so take my review with a grain of salt as I've only been there the one time. Given that, we had the halibut with fries and a salad. The salad was pretty mediocre, but it wasn't the star of the meal, so I didn't think much more. We got the 3 peice halibut for $20 and when it arrived, I wanted to get up an leave. The pieces were tiny. It's a good thing I am watching my weight. While I'm no halibut expert, I did find the pieces too tough. They had the texture of chicken breast. The tartar sauce that went with them was good, so I wonder if it was made from scratch. The star of our meal was the strawberry shortcake. It was quite excelelnt and only a buck. I think Davidson's is worth a return effort, but we are moving away soon and I just don't think I have the time to try much more of the menu. I would just recommend that you skip the halibut. read more
