The Davenport Press

Absolutely love this restaurant. The quality of the food, service, and atmosphere are all outstanding. Incredible Mediterranean fare with excellent steak selection as well. Top 5 grilled octopus that I have ever had. Big shout out to Fotini who we see every time we are there. She is always so pleasent and provides incredible service. Highly recommend! 👍🏻

The Davenport Press is a place I’ve been told about for years. It’s my parents first date spot so finally coming here myself was a treat. The decor is beautiful ( the moose head is the star of the show.) Free bruschetta and bread is provided for each table to start. The staff is welcoming but not overbearing and the musical selections are calming ( something duly missing at lots of fine-in restaurants these days.) The lamb chops were cooked to my liking ( although I at times did wish for a bit more of the seasoning it was that good!) For dessert, the New York cheesecake was creamy and fresh. When the mineola train goes by the whole place rumbles which adds uniqueness but could be a bit jarring to some. Definitely a place everyone should try at least once !

What a beautiful rare gem of a place. Set in a historic building from the 1800’in the heart of historic Mineola. The vibe is cozy, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Beautifully decorated for the holidays, and the staff felt like family. There was a specials board that changes daily offering creative dishes like Pistachio, crusted halibut, grilled Tomahawk steak and potato crusted sea scallops. Their à la car menu also has a variety of well thought out classics surely to appease anyone’s pallet. The Davenport pork chop was cooked perfectly and moist as was the halibut. If you’re tired of these chain restaurants that seem to be on every corner and looking for a family run restaurant that hasn’t forgotten what customer service is all about give them a try. Well done!

We have been dining at The Davenport Press for years and have always enjoyed their menu and the tremendous amount of daily specials they have. I recently had a retirement party there because we knew that we would have a great party with wonderful food and service. The party was for about 30 people, so we reserved one of the private rooms. The rooms and the entire establishment has a warm cozy feel to it. The party menu had many options for both food and beverages. We opted to have passed hors d'oeuvres which were abundant and delicious!! The passed trays were high quality things like meatballs; chicken wings and steak bits. There were plenty of waitstaff to assist the guests with their meals choices. We had four or five options on the menu for the entrees, including fish, sirloin, chic

We celebrate Christmas dinner for our organization here as well as monthly lunches and are very satisfied with Davenport Press restaurant.
