Loved the Experience!
Superb meal with fresh made and locally grown products. What a huge improvement from the former menu and restaurant appearance. I can't recommend this place enough....it was fantastic! The salad actually had fresh greens, the bread was perfectly warmed and quite fresh, the seafood was awesome as were the sauces. Thank you for upscaling our Milwaukie restaurant opportunities!!

Gluten Free Italian
This was our first visit to DaVinci's. My mother and I both have Celiac disease and could not have been happier with the service we received. The waiter was very informed of the gluten free options and if unsure asked the chef about exact ingredients. Our meals were absolutely perfect, we had the braised duck and chicken masala-no flour. Heather, the chef, uses one of the best gluten free pastas and it was perfectly al dente. It was wonderful to have a wonderful Italian meal that I did not have to cook myself.

very disappointed
My boyfriend and I went to Da Vincis last night for our 5th anniversary, we were very excited to go as we have had excellent food in the past. We were seated and about 15 minutes later we were given water. We then ordered a bottle of Pinot Gris, the waitress came back about 10 minutes later to say they didn't have that wine and brought something else that was not Pinot Gris or Pinot Grigio and said that this is what they are using for Pinot Gris. So we ordered a different bottle of Pinot Grigio and they didn't have that either, but she said that they had this other bottle, ok, at this point I just wanted a drink, so she brought us a completely different bottle that wasnt even on the menu. We then ordered the antipasti platter, what we received was not was explained on the menu, there was only 1 cheese, and the veggies seemed like they were from the jar. Salad, if you can call it that, very small with half a cucumber slice no cheese no cracked pepper..so finally our main course comes. I ordered the seafood fettucini, it was supposed to have crab, shrimp and scallops, no crab, instead clams and it was alfredo soup and tasteless, they did not bother to let me know that they were out of crab. My boyfriends dish the carbonara was so salty. The waitress came by to ask how our food was and I told her and she took $3 off my dinner which was a $20 dish. Not acceptable. We also were not asked if we wanted desert, but by this time we had already invested 2 horrible hours and wanted to get the hell out of there. We will NEVER go back. This was a very expensive disappointing anniversary.

Excellent food!
We had a fantastic dinner at DaVinci's. We have not been to Davinci's since the new ownership. What were we waiting for? The decor has been updated and looks very nice. The service and food was teriffic. We are planning on going back with our family on a Friday (they have live music on Friday's) to enjoy the food and music.

So bad, I joined Citysearch to write this review
My friend and I went to this restaurant on Thursday 8/19/10. I'd seen the sign for $6 lunch specials, so I talked her into trying the place.

Last Time I go here!!!
I have been to this restaurant three times now. The first time was with friends right after the new owners took over. They seemed pretty disappointed in the fact that ownership had changed but I honestly thought the food was good. Then we went earlier this summer and were pleased to see they had live music with a nice jazz duo and some of the changes to the restaurant decor. However I thought the food was pretty disappointing and we wondered what happened to the good food we had before. It just didn't seem like much effort was put into preparing the food for how expensive it was and it was bland. Then when we were getting ready to leave we overheard the musicians saying they needed a ten minute break after an hour of playing for us and being told they needed to go play which I thought was not cool. After I tipped the musicians we left unpleased. We finally decided to give them another chance recently and were disappointed in both the service and the food quality. They charge way too much money for food that I can make better myself at home which is what I'll do next time I think about going there.

Pass the Salt
After reading the menu online and noticing the interview link of the young chef, I was excited to taste some locally grown, fresh italian cuisine. Sadly, my experience was under cooked focaccia drenched in olive oil and burnt onions along side a bowl of spaghetti featuring more olive oil and a handful of basil. The only redeeming quality in the food was the solitary green olive I discovered in my side salad. It tasted like heaven paired with my one tomato slice.

Terribly disappointing
Having eaten here in the past, I was excited to share it with my wife. Big mistake on my part. The dining room was full, to be expected on a Friday night. What was not to be expected was the now-lackluster food and the lackluster service. Our salads took 40 minutes to reach our table. The Bruschetta was 10 minutes after that after having to ask twice for it.Worldwide > United States > Portland, OR > Pizza
