FlatIron Kitchen & Taphouse

Had dinner there tonight for the first time.the food was great. But what made the night fabulous was our waitress Brooke. She was so much fun while being professional and attentive the entire time. Because of Brooke we would absolutely go back. Ask for a table In her section. Amazing night!!

I am so happy that I gave this place a try again. Came here a few years back and was not impressed at all. The food was just not good. Came in recently and wow!!!! The food is so good with reasonable prices. Both my husband and I had 2 different fish dishes and it was so full of flavor!!! So happy as I live nearby and now I have a place to dine.

Every meal I've ever had here has been good. Great central location in the middle of Davidson.Friend & I went in last Friday for appetizers & a cocktail before a play.She had prosecco; I had the delightful (& generous!) Pain Killer cocktail pictured. We ordered asparagus & goat cheese grits to share.Both were good, especially the goat cheese grits!In the past, have really enjoyed the salmon with quinoa, salads, burger, & steaks.I'll admit, can be a bit pricey, but it's downtown Davidson?- what do the other reviewers expect when they walk in the door? (IFKYK)Note- The couple next to us had a pair of smoked classic cocktails that looked/smelled amazing (can't remember what they were). They came out in a box ("chest") full of what was presumably smoking wood chips- divine. We will definitely try this next time.Also, these guys own Mandolino's Artisan Pizza across the street. Every pizza and salad I've ever tried there was excellent.

Good spot! We went there a couple months back. The food was all delicious and well seasoned! We loved the spot being right in the middle of Davidson. The food was really good. Loved the corn crab fritters, definitely try those!! It is so fun too that you can do a beer flight. We went on a weeknight, and it was pretty quiet, but I imagine this spot is busy on the weekend.

Our 1st night in the Davidson area. We started with the pretzel bites - they were not dense but more light and salty. My husband loved the shrimp & grits and my salmon with risotto was amazing! My husband also raved about his Manhattan cocktail - best ever. Our waitress, Savannah, provided excellent service and was friendly and attentive. She even gave us recommendations on surrounding towns.

I made a stop in here late Saturday for lunch while I was in Davidson. The restaurant was not very busy and I was seated immediately. The lunch menu was small but had a good selection. I opted for the Salmon Quinoa bowl and a beer. The food came out fairly quickly - the dish was served cold with the exception of the salmon. I have to admit, this was one of the best preparations of salmon that I've had - crispy on the outside but not over cooked in the middle. I did end up taking off a star due to the price. My 16oz beer cost $16! It was a craft beer that was not rare and I can't think of the last time I've paid that price (other than maybe an athletic stadium). Typically a beer like that is $7-$8.

Parents weekend at Davidson college led us here. Terrific meal for the adults and the students. Cool and intimate room a little off the beaten math in downtown Davidson...but still only minutes to walk from campus. Bar in the middle of the front room provides a nice buzz and, as you might expect, sports on TV. Lovely diverse menu. A few salads and interesting apps; the students had wings, and we had a couple of salads. Wide variety of entrees from sandwiches (the burger got a rave review) to steak to salmon (both who ordered it gave two thumbs up for prep and presentation) and the pork chop (also delicious and well presented). Nice variety of cocktails, beers and wines by the glass. I recommend the black Manhattan. Service was professional, attentive, and responsive...and we're particularly grateful for their ability to accommodate a last minute doubling of our party size. Definitely worth the trip. Not as fancy as a couple of the "usual suspects" in Davidson; not as casual as some of the others. Lovely meal and team.

Understand that this was during Christmas in Davidson which is a very crowded event and I get that. My problems have nothing to do with wait times. We were told an hour to an hour and a half and were seated in less than 30 minutes. Our service was really good, especially considering the crowd. My problem is that we took our children and they ordered off the kids menu. My daughter's cheeseburger was actually just a slider which is not described on the menu. My other daughters got the kids pasta which may have been 20 noodles. My wife and I shared a pork ribeye and a Caesar. I did order an old fashioned but it looked like maybe half a normal pour. I even took out the ice cube to check. This meal for 4 was $109.00. Which would have been fine if we really had ordered for 4 but it was two kid meals that were more like very small appetizers, a shared meal, and the smallest our for a drink I have ever seen!! I don't mind spending that kind of money for a good meal but a dang slider and 20 noodles for my kids, a shared meal, and a half pour drink?? Not again!

Excellent choice for weekend lunch! I ordered the Fish and Chips - really tasty, perfectly cooked and huge portion. My Cousin also enjoyed her spicy tacos which were also delivered promptly.Our server Brooklyn M was efficient and friendly. We will definitely return on our next Davidson visit.

If I could have given no stars I would!! My husband and I are fairly new to the area. We wanted to try Flatiron but believe me not worth the money at all!! They price items as if they are a five star restaurant they are surely not! My husband had a pork ribeye and it was mostly fat and almost undercooked. One of his sides was lentils which were undercooked to the point of crunchy! My meal was "roasted chicken " which it was as obviously just baked. They over salted it on the skin. My sides were carrots with peas and Mac and cheese. Which was so basic and you can't substitute any other sides. My carrots were crunchy and not in a good way. The peas looked like they were frozen and had been microwaved. The Mac and cheese might as well been Kraft Mac and cheese from the box which again would have been better. Again everything was over salted and overpriced!! Don't bother!
