“Loved our experance! Our waitress Natasha was amazing. We've had her twice and she always goes above and beyond. The food was amazing and the tea just hits the spot!”
“Our favorite restaurant in downtown Dayton. Like the atmosphere, the people, and the food! Guacamole was delicious as usual. Enchiladas verdes were out of this world good. Meghan was wonderful as a server. And finally, thank you for our favorite seats at the chef’s counter. Love watching everyone cook! We will be back after the new year. 😊”
“Awesome service! Our server was phenomenal! Great food, and awesome atmosphere!”

“Awesome place to hangout with friends or have a date night. There is so much to do including axe throwing, arcade games, all kinds of different video game systems, board games, Foosball and other games. They have a full bar and pizza from the Pizza Bandit!”
“K Pot has a wide variety of ingredients and their broth was really delicious. I am vegetarian, and I was able to find a lot of great options. Isbela was our server and she was very helpful in helping me find vegetarian options and provided great service :)”

“I got the Tony and it was excellent. The menu is limited, might want to expand sandwich choices even just using different combinations of the same meats / cheeses and toppings. Sides and salads are limited, again might want to look at expanding. The grocery concept, I get it biggest complaint of downtown residents is lack of a grocery store. There selection is limited and didnt look like they covered the basics. I would either get in or out of thar business and maybe focus on being a sandwich shop.”
“45+ min wait for 3 plates. 4th plate was ordered after the first 3 were placed and came out first which indicates the 4th order was submitted by itself rather than combined with the first 3. Kitchen was not at capacity or extremely busy. Assistant Manager falsely claimed to be the Manager and was unwilling to offer any compensation for the wait. A.M stated 45min is standard wait and insinuated I was trying to get a discount on bar tab because I waited until the bill came out. A.M falsely claimed I was the only table that had complained about the wait. Waitress clearly indicated a table near me also complained and received a free appetizer as I was requesting to speak to the manager. The unwillingness to make minor compensations or take accountability is the reason another dollar will never be spent again at T.P. Waitress was tipped fairly at 20%.”
“We had dinner I had the pulled pork sandwich, my nice had the brisket sandwich. Our sides where Cole slaw, potato salad and green beans. Everything was amazing good. The employees where friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place if you are in the Dayton area.”
“The best Greeck chicken wrap, the fresh cut fries with vinegar or your yummy tyme ketchup, DELICIOUS.My husband loved the 3 cheese cheeses teak and fries. The hummus and fuloafo was amazing!DELICIOUS food, fun staff and 2 verynice brother owners. The hamburgers are good too, JUST GO, you'll love it!”
“We ordered takeaway for Thanksgiving, and everything was cooked to perfection—the lasagne, brie, and olive cake were outstanding. The flavors were exquisite, and the staff was friendly and very service-oriented. Parking downtown Dayton was easy, and we’ll definitely be back.”
“Ok so we’ve dined at Old Scratch Troy location about 6 times since it’s opened. Waited a bit to give them time to really get in their groove. While I do recommend the place. Pizza is good, staff is nice (especially Amanda at the bar) and shareables are tasty. That said I would like to see the food’s taste be a little more consistent. My favorite dish is the fire roasted cauliflower but sadly it hasn’t been prepared the same way twice with the last two times it was barely seasoned at all once it was almost raw. Hopefully as training continues they will fix that issue.”
“Originally from Buffalo NY, found it very difficult to find a pizza that even comes close to what I was used to. I've tried many pizzas across the Miami Valley and all I can say is that most were pretty bad, and a few ok but not much more. 2 places were halfway decent but those places went downhill. I finally tried Joe's Pizza last month and have to say, the Absolute Best in Miami Valley. It was the closest to Buffalo Style Pizza I ever had in Southwest Ohio. Told their Staff the same. I will definitely be going back there despite being a little drive from where I live. I would recommend Joe's Pizza to everyone, especially if you're looking for a quality pizza!!”
“Kicking myself for waiting so long to try Val’s. It’s almost hard to describe how incredible everything tastes and feels. It’s like a symphony in your mouth. I took a bite of the loaded scone before running around and it’s all I could think of until I finished it later. These bakery items are the kind I can see being on the show “Best thing I ever ate”. The s’mores pop tart? Take all of my money! Can’t wait to eventually try everything! Val, you are a brilliant goddess and I’m in awe of your skills.”
“The restaurant is so cute, eclectic, and so clean!
Our server tonight was Jamie, and she was damn near the best server I’ve ever had! Her recommendations were spot on, her hospitality was unmatched, and it was a wonderful experience.
I went with some coworkers, and we all tried different things, and we shared 3 appetizers. EVERYTHING we tried was so yummy
I will be coming back with friends, and am so glad I found this little gem!
If you stop by, make sure to ask for Jamie if she’s serving—or a drink recommendation if she’s your bartender!”
“Food was great. Real teff injera with authentic sides. Vegan gluten free options available.”

“Had an amazing experience here! Great food, and amazing service! My two year old played claw machine and kept loosing, he was very upset. The nice staff opened it and made him believe he was playing and gave him a toy! They also gave one to my other son! Very sweet, and went out of their way to make his night! Food was great, and service was really fast! Very high quality building!”
“Second evening in a row we've DoorDashed your amazing food after working a 72 hour week. What a wonderful treat! My hubby is half Lebanese so I know how it's supposed to taste. I can't tell you enough how good the food is. My now go to place for comfort food. Made my daughter's 30th birthday a nice night. Thank you so much. Recommending to everyone. Keep up the fantastic work.”
“Tender Mercy has taken EXCELLENT care of us the last two weekends as we entertain family from out of town. Last night Dozo (the sushi restaurant inside) was just amazing. Every one in our party of five was blown away by each course. Sake and cocktails were equally delectable and service as always was above amd beyond.”
“CoCo's Bistro provided an amazing atmosphere, with a vibe in music from all over the eras. Their versitle variety of dishes and flavors, makes for an occasion - whether lunch or a fiestive dinner on a Saturday night, this place delivers with high energy and an inviting venue.”
“To take Century Bar from the top class whiskey bar, that didn't cut corners, that has genuinely put in thought to their menu, used fresh ingredients, and the swanky atmosphere... to this? Absolute travesty and it's a slap in the face to everyone that has owned or valued this bar for what it was. A part of Dayton history. The favorite old fashioned is made with syrup now and no longer sugar cubes. The favored whiskey sour? no longer made with egg whites and knock off cherries. So very sad to see another great piece of what makes Dayton unique, squandered to this piece of crap. You should be disappointed.”
“Quick, friendly service. Went for late lunch. Maybe 3 other tables there in the 40ish minutes I was there.
Got a thai coffee. Absolutely delicious.
Then pot stickers. Came out in 5minutes. Yummy filling and sauce. Nice crispy wonton.
Entree was pad thai with shrimp. Medium spicy, good balance of sweet and salty. Added shrimp to mine. Everything less then $30. Wish had one closer to home.”

“We held my daughter’s bridal shower at Joui Wine. Who doesn’t like wine and charcuterie? The staff were amazing and helped make the shower special. The charcuterie was beautiful and delicious. My daughter and I plan to be back to enjoy the beautiful space and awesome wine!”

“I can’t believe I’m writing a review for a McDonald’s, but this location has it going on!!! Super clean, updated interior. Bathrooms were spotless and spelled so fresh and so clean! The staff was friendly, quick, and I felt like the customers were all coming to their local watering hole for some Saturday-morning community. Wish this were my local McDonald’s… Well done, staff and crew!”
“Makayla and the other taker with the blue braids was handling the Drive thru great. Last night about 11:50 almost 12 midnight. Harshman is always doing something around that time and your store was a line around the building. It would be nice if harshman said something to there customer's. I was one of your Manager's at the S. Dixie location back at the end of 2016. Medical reasons made me have to stop working. I just wanted to say that these two ladies was doing a fantastic job for you restaurant. The Manager is a white gentleman with blonde hair. Doing everything he can while they was getting there butt whooped with 3 employees plus him. I did not ask the black lady with the blue braids her name but I did get Makayla's. Not sure if I'm spelling it like she does but, I spelled it like it sounds. My name is Rebecca Kendrick perfect job team.”
“We dined in. It was typical fast food experience except for the gem of a worker who took our order. This person just made my son’s day, was just so out of the ordinary kind which restored a little bit of faith in humanity for me. The world needs more people like this for sure.”
“The 5 stars goes to Omar i believe he said his name was. I ordered online and didn't receive some of my items. This worker went over and above to make it right and uphold the best customer service I've seen from pretty much any mcdonalds. He even threw in an extra pie for the trouble. You are the model that employees should base their performance off of. Keep it up???”
“This was some of the best food and drinks I have ever had. I have been a big foodie my whole life and recently became a vegetarian. Since then, I have been struggling with finding dishes I truly love, especially when eating out. Well, we went to Meadowlark for the first time tonight and they blew it out of the water! The drinks were tasty, the food was delicious and the service was amazing!! We will definitely be back again soon!!”
“The food was delicious and everything was perfectly cooked. The snow crab clusters were huge. Tried the special house sauce as im an original cajun mild girl, and it was bomb. Love how it all stuck to the food. My waitress (Alisha R) was great. She took time to explain the difference in sauces and constantly checked on me to make sure I was ok. She made my experience amazing, and she deserves a raise! Hands down the best seafood I've had.”

“My favorite family friendly place. Bock excels at creating a space where we gather as family, friends, soccer teams, etc with their large open room, but also there's a game room my kids love, foosball, and shuffle board. And that's not even getting to the food and drinks. My favorite snacks include the German nachos, reuben dip, and pretzels. The drinks are always on point- fresh and delicious. we always love the lemon blueberry with with a slice of lemon and the Negligent IPA. They are staffed by some of the greatest people. A family favorite for sure.”
“Had heard great things about the Vegan options that Flavors offered and boy was I not disappointed. The man at the counter went over the menu in detail pointing out the vegan options. I got the Hummus bake and it was delicious. The chips, salsa and garlic sauce was outstanding. I will be back. Great food, great service at a very reasonable price and made to order VEGAN style.”
“The coffee Pettibone serves is outstanding: true 3rd wave with amazing profiles, not the burned-n-bitter-made-for-milk beans so many roasters generate! Try their pourovers and taste the difference. The food here is really first class too, and priced fairly for non mass-produced creations. Many choices too. Avoid crowds and come early or after peak times.”
“Found this little gem on the internet. The food was absolutely fantastic. We all enjoyed the food. My friend tried lamb for the first time. She was in heaven. The server was great. My only complaints were the lamb was overcooked, but still juicy, and the kids running all over the place (and the boy that was hitting his brother with a belt, not hard, but still annoying).”
“Great experience here. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was inviting. We don't go to Dayton very often but Salar gives us another reason to go more often.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“We are thankful that Narco Burger had that little mishap with the signage on the abandon cleaners building across the street, If not for that we would have never known much about them. Shortly after that episode, we called and ordered lunch, OMG...they were really really good. I'm not a hamburger person at all, I just happened to have a craving, We were not disappointed. I ordered the 4 small cheeseburgers with the Narco sauce and cheese curds, My Husband , the Western and onion rings. Thanks for causing a lil chaos in hope to invite more customers!! Well Done!”
“5 Stars is not enough. Hubby and I stopped in for our first visit and he grew up Italian ~ homemade everything. Sub was filled with meats, mozzarella sticks were perfect and the pizza was awesome. The dough is fabulous, so much taste. Husband felt like he was back home. Cannoli was so tasty. We will definitely be back. Great food, priced fairly and the owners service exceeded our expectations! Thank you for a great meal!!!”
“I’ve been waiting to get Rip Rap Shake Shack for three years, and this past weekend was finally the time for it!!! We live super far away but I knew that once the opportunity presented itself, it was a must-see stop. I was amazed by the presentation of the ice cream that I got and the monster shake that my husband got. They looked absolutely amazing! Almost like a movie prop! The flavor was absolutely amazing, and I enjoyed every last bite! 10/10 would recommend if you’re in the Dayton area! Bring the kiddos too! Our toddler loved it!”
“As a kid (In the 80s) this was my favorite place to eat. I lived in Northland Village (before it got wild) and my dad would order this on Fridays when we were good kids during the week. The foil under the bread was a staple that I loved and I plan to visit again over the summer and introduce my family to REAL pizza!”
“Kylie was our amazing server today for our first visit in...she was awesome and so was the food and the atmosphere! Highly recommend 😁”
“Amazing people providing amazing service with amazing food; especially the POTATOES! Just an amazing place that makes dining a pleasure. The potato guy.”

“My friend lives off 3rd Street and said she had fabulous food here. When I pulled up I wasn't sure what I was walking into but have been there almost every week since my first time a few months ago. Great food, really good service and you get your food quick! And did I mention the prices! Wow so well priced. Great quesadillas, great burritos and out of this world salsa. Try them, you will not be sorry. In case you didn't realize, I highly recommend this amazing little family run restaurant.”
“We had lunch on Saturday and as usual all of our meals were delicious! Our server Karugu was fantastic!! Friendly, efficient, quick to refill our drinks with a great smile! We started off with pretzel bites, hot and delicious! Started off with cups of gumbo, perfect on a cold rainy day! Great soup loaded with shrimp, chicken and sausage. Then the 4 of us had deluxe pizza, a tuna melt, chicken quesadilla and the Italian sub. Everything was great. The pizza crust was crispy and light. Perfect!”
“I'm not a huge bar person generally but I know Yellow Cab hosts a ton of events for charities I support and lots of more unique events. We went to give it a try for charity bingo last night and had a great time and even stayed for karaoke after. The bartenders were lovely, drinks were delicious and potent, the crowd was pleasant and welcoming. Just really good vibes all around. And we already love the Pizza Bandit. Yellow Cab is a gem and we will be back!!”
“I had a very large party (17) there tonight and the staff was SO accommodating! We had a couple hiccups with our party (not any fault of DP - it was us) and the staff was wonderful and took care of what we needed without question or hesitation. They were efficient and quick with every part of the service. Food was wonderful as always, too!”
“I’ve been driving by this store since I was a kid and Peter’s Pike was on our route to the airport. Back then, was Edna’s Little Store. Such a fine selection of wines. The store was noticeably immaculate. Looked like you could eat off of the floor and their deli food is so good - we got potato salad, shrimp salad and a gigantic loaded baked potato. All of them were a 10 out of 10 but the shrimp salad was a 12. It was delectable! I’m not sure what the seasoning was but it was a bit like paprika or Cajun. I can’t wait to go back and get something else, like the sandwiches!”
“P.F. Changs is my go to after thrift shopping in Centerville! I start off with lettuce wraps, which are just divine! My main meal was sesame chicken and is one of my favorites! A visit to PF Changs must include The Great Wall of Chocolate Cake!!!! The atmosphere is wonderful! Our server, Chris Howard, was very knowledgeable and met our needs before we had to ask! Check them out, you won't be disappointed!”
“BEST Steak, (any cut) liver and onions are super good!! Stewed tomatoes 🍅 best I’ve ever had.. keep up the wonderful job!!!- one of our FAVORITE restaurants… raw oysters are tasty as well..:”
“The wattress was amazing. The wine , food, atmosphere is exceptional. A party of 8 and everyone was extremely happy. Will visit again.”
“I stop in occasionally; But after trying a product of yours, was a positive. in fact I will be stopping in to get more of it. I'd caught what I think was the flu, though I have not been medically diagnosed. Symptoms itchy throat, low fever that progressed to high fever, body aches and pain, nausea, vomiting, headaches, cough congestion, no appetite, etc. I was just too sick to drive myself to the hospital. I'm going to the urgent care tonight to see where I'm at with this. On Friday my brother was sent to the store to get me some nutrients and medicines. He also came back with a bottle of Premixed Super Tonic; I thank God for this product that you've made Mr. Poole. Because, I feel much better. My fever has dropped, and I'm eating light, and I'm up out the bed, stirring around. My brother wasn't bothered about my flu Symptoms, and his reply , why, was. "Oh, I'm good sis, I take a dose of My Super Tonic daily; My whole family at home was sick as a dog, but, I'm good". Well, at that moment I added to my list of items to get this Super Tonic. I will come in next time and buy it myself. I drink Nestle Water, however, I'm seeing that you have a brand that's good for your health, too. I like to hear more about it when I stop in to get my Tonic. 😊💖God's continued to blessing you. Jane Cash-Marzette”
“I have never been so impressed about a first visit to a restaurant in my life!!! The food was absolutely amazing!!! The flavor is indescribably good. The live music was extremely entertaining. The flavor of the shrimp and crab legs were mind blowing. YOU MUST TRY THIS RESTAURANT!!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“I haven't been here but I watched the ramen challenge there on Molly Schuylers page and I hope y'all changed your rule about not being able to put ice in it to cool it down or letting them wait a couple minutes to let it cool even because that could be very dangerous to someone's body and could potentially mean trouble for your restaurant so I hope you modified your rules to make it safer during challenges. Food looks amazing though!!”
“This is a fun and sociable place. The beer is outstanding and the people are even better.”
“Amazing food and service! Sky Asian is our favorite Asian restaurant in the Dayton area!”
“This was my 1st time here and I already am planning my next visit! I loved our waitress Jamie! She was amazing! 5 stars meal! We got the Mo special and it was DELICIOUS! 🤤 so happy to support a local restaurant!”
“Just two weeks ago, I wrote a glowing review for The Chop House, and here I am again—because they’re just that good! When I asked my wife what she was hungry for, she immediately said, "The Chop House," and once again, they did not disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the prime rib with burgundy mushrooms, served with real horseradish that reminded me of how my mom used to make it—simply perfection. The rice pilaf and Caesar salad were spot-on, with the salad served at just the right temperature. For dessert, we indulged in the Hershey chocolate cake with homemade ice cream and caramel syrup. Every bite was heavenly. Our waitress Brittany, was both professional and charming, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The service, food, and atmosphere were all top-notch, just as we’ve come to expect from The Chop House. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy an exceptional meal, this is it. I’ll be adding some photos to this review because words alone don’t do it justice. Highly recommend!”
“Ive been here a few times recently, its close to home so conveniently located. Food is always good. Every time Ive been there was a DJ so thats a big plus for me. Atmosphere is good, mostly an older crowd like me, but some younger people too. Mostly people just hanging out eating, drinking, dancing and having a good time”
“Beer 🍺 is great and delicious and smoked wings were bombs as well. The venue is just perfect and so awesome 😎🤩!!!”
“Just found this place and ate here for the first time. We had 5-in our group and all shared 3-pizzas. Great service, pizzas were all great. Will return to try other menu offerings.”
“The food is always served, so good. And everyone there is extremely friendly with outstanding service. �����”
“Choice Juice Boxx provided their Ginger Lemonade as the signature drink for the GOD's Girls event hosted at our venue, The Backhouse. It was so refreshing and delicious! The Owner, Donna, was so kind and professional. The way Donna presented their product makes us want to know more about their offerings. We will definately call on Choice Juice Boxx for future events where juice will be served.”
“Manna is definitely a must! Great staff to take care of you, and it’s a beautiful restaurant. Great espresso martinis and the chicken salad croissant is wonderful. The brunch buffet is a MUST.”
“Tucked back in a dark corner at the back of Miller Ln, you pull up to a not so enticing, maybe even dingy looking parking lot and building. But once you go inside, you are greeted by a very enthusiastic, desirous to please owner, her husband and their enthusiastic crew!! The food, the atmosphere, the service are ALL top notch!!! We are originally from the Columbus area, and until finding this hidden gem, have been making the trip back to there whenever we wanted hibachi. So glad that we stumbled on this place, it is now our bee go to!!”
“Best place to get the best beer around, hands down. Great atmosphere, amazing staff, very clean and comfortable. Personal favorite beer is JP-7, the best IPA in Ohio.”
“Ordered food to go. Godfather's pizza left our area years ago. We saw the restaurant and had to stop to get food to take home. Brought back memories. Tasted just the same.”
“By far the best spicy food experience my husband and I have ever had!! We didn’t know what or how to order, but the suggestions provided were inspired. We loved that we could see the ingredients for sale in the shop. We learned about food and had a great meal. Can’t stop thinking about that jollof rice. Looking forward to the next order.”
“You place your order at the counter and the sandwiches come with a small side. They serve what has to be the best Reuben Sandwich in town. It was full of meat and kraut but not sloppy. My side was potato salad and it was good but a little small.”
“Normally I would highly recommend, this has always been our “go to “ for great Thai food. Tonight however was not a good experience. Ordered kaniesu only to be told they didn’t have the ingredients to make it. What? Whom ever was cooking tonight must of had a bad day. The pad Thai was the worst I’ve ever had here, hard to describe the flavor but it was definitely off. Just not the same as I’m used to getting. Vegetable fried rice was bad as well, tasted burnt and was definitely off. We will give this place one more try, and if it is like tonight we will not return. Very disappointing!”
“Mamacitas Cantina has quickly become my go-to spot for a fun evening with delicious, authentic Latin food! Love the vibrant decor and lively atmosphere! Made me feel like I was on a tropical vacation! The bar and food menu prices are reasonable and the cocktails are out of this world! Easily the best margarita that I've ever had and the pina colada was like a sip of paradise! The steak was the most tender that I've ever had in my life! Perfectly cooked and exquisite! My husband had the tacos and he loved them - we will definitely be back for their Taco Tuesday! I also heard that they have a dancing robot on Fridays...WHHHAAATT?! We have to see that! Our first visit was on a Sunday evening when they had karaoke, and it was a blast! We had so much fun! If you're in the Dayton/Kettering area and craving a taste of Latin America paired with a lively atmosphere, do yourself a favor and visit Mamacitas Cantina!”
“This was my first visit to Wing Stop, and the customer service was outstanding. I mentioned it was my first time, and the staff member immediately asked about my favorite flavors so he could put together a sample for me—since only my daughter was ordering food (I’d already eaten). To my surprise, he brought out a sample of the garlic Parmesan wings, and they were delicious. Highly recommend giving this place a try and supporting a business that truly takes care of its customers.”
“Simply the Best! Food, service and atmosphere is always top notch.”
“Been eating there since they opened the first location! Can't wait for the Huber Heights location!”
“Very relaxed and open atmosphere, craft cocktails, small distillery with big flavors”
“EVERYTHING is excellent…food, atmosphere, service…a throughly enjoyable experience!”
“LOVE the apple cider ones, we met him at the learning farm last year and came back in hopes he would be there again, and he was!! We tried the strawberry lemonade and it was fantastic but I am going to have to hunt down the apple cider ones 😂”
“Probably my favorite restaurant in Dayton, even though it's a chain. We come here often and have rarely had anything not be perfect. Usually the service is so fast and the courses come out very quickly. Some of my favorite things are the Alex's salad, rotisserie chicken, pork tenderloin, and the filet mignon. Steaks are usually perfectly cooked. Dimly lit and cozy atmosphere, usually still not too loud.”
“Great flavors! Ordered online and received a package very quick! 10 out of 10!”
“Backyard Smoke & Grill was a gem as food trucks go. The food was a wonderful experience. Chicken and waffle topped with bacon and green onion was delicious and plentiful. The price was just right. The service was great. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.”
“Enjoyed hanging with friends playing bingo and laughing. Wings were awesome”
“This was truly the highlight of my week! The owners were so kind and everyone at the brewery loved them. Loved my chicken and waffle so much and can't wait to have them again.”
“Had a great meal at Carvers the other night. I ordered the 14oz NY Strip medium-rare, closer to the rare side than medium. They absolutely nailed it, the steak was cooked to perfection. It was a great cut of meat, very tender for a strip, and the taste was just perfect. The service was just right, checked on us when appropriate, kept the drinks full. The au gratin potatoes were delicious as well. Overall, a great experience and I will definitely be returning.”
“Had my first atole (?) corn drink at the hot chocolate fest!! It was delicious!! Had the chicken gyro platter and it was fantastic!!! It was legit comfort food!! Can’t wait to try more!”
“Some delicious cheese steaks and pulled pork sandwiches as well as country fried potatoes”
“Good portions and pretty tasty except that the rice was overseasoned with vinegar and very overwhelming. I assume this was just a mistake as I've /never/ had sushi where I could taste the vinegar like that. Hopefully it won't be so bad if I decide to give it another chance.”
“We’ve been here several times. The restaurant is always clean, the staff is friendly and attentive and food is really good. We love getting popcorn as soon as we sit down.”
“Decor is cool inside. Food was very good, maybe a bit pricey for some items but overall good. *NOTE* They have a Negroni cocktail hour from 4:30-6:30 IF YOU SIT AT THE BAR. It was our first time there so we ordered a couple at the table and found out later sitting at the table does not count. The waitress was going to try and give us the drinks for that rate but it didn’t happen. I wouldn’t have ordered the $25 appetizer knowing the drinks were that much. Lessons learned I guess. I would go again, but just be more cautious on what I order is all ☺️”
“Good experience! The restaurant overall was short staffed and was on a short wait however the service (Mason) provided made the experience even better. He did a great job and was very attentive.”
“BG, in catering, was very pleasant to talk with, knowledgeable of her menu and helpful when ordering. I ordered the hamburger/potato buffets for my wife's cookout birthday party. BG had all the "fixings" for my guest to a augment their burger and potato. The food was hot when I picked it up; my guests really liked the food. She even included a birthday card for my wife signed by each of the staff. Based on this first take-out order from the Longhorn for me, I would gladly recommend. Thanks BD and staff.”
“Great place I recommend eating here! great service the food was some of the best!”
“I rarely have any problems. They always get my order right and if they do mess up, it's not a big deal because they are always on top of making sure orders are correct most of the time. EL Toro is my go-to Mexican restaurant.”
“Went for my birthday. Seafood boil was delicious and great portions. Hush puppies were also amazing. Will be backs”
“Emma and Katelin are the funniest hottest most beautiful bartenders I’ve ever had in my life. Not to mention they threw in a little bit of flair to our drinks. 12/10 experience”
“We visited the RL on Miller Lane in Dayton, Ohio. The service was exceptional. Our server was Cree. Her professionalism was phenomenal. I highly recommend.”
“I'm a life long Dayton resident and used to love Elsa's. I wish now the Sheetz was going in. The quality of food has gone so far downhill this was my last trip to Elsas. Tonight the refried beans were dry and totally inedible. I mean beans hit with a masher and nothing else. No flavoring. No seasoning. BLAND Nachos had no salsa or sauce of any kind. Chicken, cheese, and dry beans. Chicken had no flavoring, no seasoning. Plain chicken. It was awful. And happy hour? What a joke. .70 cents off drink prices? I'd rather spend my money at Taco Bell.”

“Love this place! It’s been here since I was a little girl although then it was called The Red Barn. The food is great and always fresh, I consider it down home cooking, I believe they take pride in cooking unlike fast food restaurants. The prices are always at a good price. I have never been disappointed. Now the only drawback is the drive thru window takes about a good 20 minutes at the fastest so prepare to wait but it’s worth it!”
“Had heard great things about the Vegan options that Flavors offered and boy was I not disappointed. The man at the counter went over the menu in detail pointing out the vegan options. I got the Hummus bake and it was delicious. The chips, salsa and garlic sauce was outstanding. I will be back. Great food, great service at a very reasonable price and made to order VEGAN style.”
“We are thankful that Narco Burger had that little mishap with the signage on the abandon cleaners building across the street, If not for that we would have never known much about them. Shortly after that episode, we called and ordered lunch, OMG...they were really really good. I'm not a hamburger person at all, I just happened to have a craving, We were not disappointed. I ordered the 4 small cheeseburgers with the Narco sauce and cheese curds, My Husband , the Western and onion rings. Thanks for causing a lil chaos in hope to invite more customers!! Well Done!”
“Found this little gem on the internet. The food was absolutely fantastic. We all enjoyed the food. My friend tried lamb for the first time. She was in heaven. The server was great. My only complaints were the lamb was overcooked, but still juicy, and the kids running all over the place (and the boy that was hitting his brother with a belt, not hard, but still annoying).”

“Ok so we’ve dined at Old Scratch Troy location about 6 times since it’s opened. Waited a bit to give them time to really get in their groove. While I do recommend the place. Pizza is good, staff is nice (especially Amanda at the bar) and shareables are tasty. That said I would like to see the food’s taste be a little more consistent. My favorite dish is the fire roasted cauliflower but sadly it hasn’t been prepared the same way twice with the last two times it was barely seasoned at all once it was almost raw. Hopefully as training continues they will fix that issue.”
“The best Greeck chicken wrap, the fresh cut fries with vinegar or your yummy tyme ketchup, DELICIOUS.My husband loved the 3 cheese cheeses teak and fries.

“We had lunch on Saturday and as usual all of our meals were delicious! Our server Karugu was fantastic!! Friendly, efficient, quick to refill our drinks with a great smile! We started off with pretzel bites, hot and delicious! Started off with cups of gumbo, perfect on a cold rainy day! Great soup loaded with shrimp, chicken and sausage. Then the 4 of us had deluxe pizza, a tuna melt, chicken quesadilla and the Italian sub. Everything was great. The pizza crust was crispy and light. Perfect!”
“I ordered an in store pick-up. My food was prepared promptly within the specificed time given from my server. The order was done according to my special request and the food was delicious. I love going to their Miller Lane location. I receive great service most times when I visit.”
“Originally from Buffalo NY, found it very difficult to find a pizza that even comes close to what I was used to. I've tried many pizzas across the Miami Valley and all I can say is that most were pretty bad, and a few ok but not much more. 2 places were halfway decent but those places went downhill. I finally tried Joe's Pizza last month and have to say, the Absolute Best in Miami Valley. It was the closest to Buffalo Style Pizza I ever had in Southwest Ohio. Told their Staff the same. I will definitely be going back there despite being a little drive from where I live. I would recommend Joe's Pizza to everyone, especially if you're looking for a quality pizza!!”
“I had a very large party (17) there tonight and the staff was SO accommodating! We had a couple hiccups with our party (not any fault of DP - it was us) and the staff was wonderful and took care of what we needed without question or hesitation. They were efficient and quick with every part of the service. Food was wonderful as always, too!”
“I got the Tony and it was excellent. The menu is limited, might want to expand sandwich choices even just using different combinations of the same meats / cheeses and toppings. Sides and salads are limited, again might want to look at expanding. The grocery concept, I get it biggest complaint of downtown residents is lack of a grocery store. There selection is limited and didnt look like they covered the basics. I would either get in or out of thar business and maybe focus on being a sandwich shop.”
“We ordered takeaway for Thanksgiving, and everything was cooked to perfection—the lasagne, brie, and olive cake were outstanding. The flavors were exquisite, and the staff was friendly and very service-oriented. Parking downtown Dayton was easy, and we’ll definitely be back.”

“K Pot has a wide variety of ingredients and their broth was really delicious. I am vegetarian, and I was able to find a lot of great options. Isbela was our server and she was very helpful in helping me find vegetarian options and provided great service :)”
“The sponsored ads on Facebook for this place and this “Good Good Chocolate Bowl” sure accomplished the mission! This is the most amazing #Goody Goody #Treat ever! #wow absolutely delicious. I wish I could post my pictures here but it won’t let me! The staff working was amazing and let me sample the difference between two bowls I was debating on and am so glad he did, what a sweetheart, the chocolate Açaí is absolutely the bomb! 🙏🏻🧡🦄#tastebudexplosion”
“My wife ordered me a cake for my birthday. I love carrot cake, but it’s hard to find a good one. Not something that seems to be too common any longer… Long story short, this was one of the best carrot cakes I’ve ever had. Very moist, good texture from the nuts and a little soft pop from the carrots. Simply Amazing!! ! We also tried their Chocolate Chip and Snickerdoodle Cookies and their Banana Nut Muffins. I’ve never been much of a fan of snickerdoodle cookies(wife loves them), but these were very good. Soft and chewy and just a good cookie. The chocolate chip cookie was amazing, slight hint of salt just to enhance the flavor of the chocolate. The muffin was moist and had a great banana nut flavor. Pretty much everything we received was extremely well baked and delicious!!!”
“This was my first visit to Wing Stop, and the customer service was outstanding. I mentioned it was my first time, and the staff member immediately asked about my favorite flavors so he could put together a sample for me—since only my daughter was ordering food (I’d already eaten). To my surprise, he brought out a sample of the garlic Parmesan wings, and they were delicious. Highly recommend giving this place a try and supporting a business that truly takes care of its customers.”
“Bloody Mary was delicious, we had the breakfast burritos which were amazing and service was top notch we got in and out within 50 mins, we had Milo as our service and he was great and made excellent recommendations, the atmosphere was a great vibe I love the style and beautiful place”
“Victor’s Taco shop is by far the best “fast food casual” Tex-Mex menu around! We love going and getting the breakfast burrito; awesome tasting and so price competitive!! It’s a two-meal breakfast. Highly recommend, you getting the best Tex-Mex food available in Dayton.”
“Dayton seriously lacks in the pizza department, but Mikey's could be just the thing to turn it around. The interior is super snazzy. Swings indoors!? Just don't be stupid about it! They have an appetizing display of their current slice selections, which really helps to narrow it down. Both slices I had today were delicious: flavorful, crisp, cheesy, with a lovely garnish of delectable dipping sauces. So much better than those sad square-cut pies Ohio seems to love. The bar is loaded with beer and liquor so you can accompany your bites with a bit of brew. I love pizza more than I love my kids. I'll be coming back, over and over and over.”
“45+ min wait for 3 plates. 4th plate was ordered after the first 3 were placed and came out first which indicates the 4th order was submitted by itself rather than combined with the first 3. Kitchen was not at capacity or extremely busy. Assistant Manager falsely claimed to be the Manager and was unwilling to offer any compensation for the wait. A.M stated 45min is standard wait and insinuated I was trying to get a discount on bar tab because I waited until the bill came out. A.M falsely claimed I was the only table that had complained about the wait. Waitress clearly indicated a table near me also complained and received a free appetizer as I was requesting to speak to the manager. The unwillingness to make minor compensations or take accountability is the reason another dollar will never be spent again at T.P. Waitress was tipped fairly at 20%.”
