“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%.”
“Great food and atmosphere, at reasonable prices. My husband and I enjoyed everything we ordered, and plan on going back soon.”
“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. 😊”
“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.”

“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).”
“I have been to this KPOT location several times. Every time I have had a wonderful time and enjoyed the food. Tonight we had an absolutely amazing server. AJ was very kind and provided exceptional service, which was so very appreciated after our 8 hour drive back home from visiting family. Honestly I don't know how KPOT keeps managing to go above and beyond our expectations each time we visit, but we are consistently leaving very pleased. Great job to the KPOT staff for being amazing at what they do 💜”
“I have ordered ribs and bacon, and everything has been great. The quality of the products is top notch, and I like supporting a small business that takes pride in what they sell. The Candied Orange BBQ Ribs are absolutely amazing I have ordered them three times! The limited-edition bacon is also worth trying.”

“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.”
“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.”

“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!”
“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 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.”
“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!!”
“Amazing & healthy food options ♥️ consistent good service & nice atmosphere. I’ve had business meetings here and dinner with friends ❤️”
“Awesome service! Our server was phenomenal! Great food, and awesome atmosphere!”

“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!!”
“We had our first visit to El Meson and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The entire restaurant is beautifully decorated and you can truly feel the culture and care that went into creating such a warm atmosphere. The moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Our waitress, Stasha (I apologize if I spelled her name wrong), was absolutely wonderful. She clearly knows her job very well. From the moment she came to our table, she made an instant connection with us and was incredibly kind and attentive. She even took time to talk with the kids, brought them toys, and surprised our son with birthday ice cream, which was such a thoughtful touch. She also knew a lot about the menu and the events they host on certain days and made several recommendations — and she was absolutely right about all of them. The food was incredible: flavorful, authentic, and beautifully prepared. Everything we tried was spot on. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with great service, amazing food, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend checking them out.”
“Everything we ordered was absolutely delicous. We got an espresso martini, the baked brie, the brussel sprouts, and the salmon. I have never been so happy with a dining experience. Our waitress was kind, the atmosphere was calm and quiet with nice music. Well-priced, fantastic food!”
“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 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!”
“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.”
“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..:”
“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!”

“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!!!”
“We've been going here the last couple nights because they have been amazing! The food has always been made perfectly even with modifications to the food. You don't get that kind of service everywhere. I just wanted to make sure these employees know they are doing a wonderful job and we appreciate their hard work!”
“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.”
“As a younger Canadian male at the time who just ventured off of Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard I was a little shaken. To enter this establishment and see every employee was black. I was now even potentially in shock. And well it was the most welcoming experience and the people straight up loving people. It made me feel a little better after all of it. Was the best Mcdonalds ive ever had so far. The reviews arent that good but Ill never forget the warm welcome. This is the only mcdonalds that made me smile. It was mostly my ignorance and being under travelled also unaware of people culture and identity that made my heart beat being 6 hours from home. Heart warming walking into this place id do it again! You made a white boy feel welcome .”
“We had not been at OE for over a year. Only 9 people in the bar on a Friday night at 7:00pm….no band. Good service, as always. A large Chicken Ranchero pizza was $22.00, and it was only so-so. I don’t know what is happening in the Oregon District.”

“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 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.

“We had such a beautiful experience at Pettibone Coffee. The food was absolutely delicious, the coffee was rich and comforting, and the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We hosted our Coffee and Conversations event there, and it was the perfect space. There was more than enough room to comfortably seat the 15 people who attended, which allowed everyone to relax, connect, and truly enjoy the time together. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating — kind smiles, patient service, and genuine hospitality that made us feel cared for. You can tell they value community. We’re so grateful for such a cozy, inviting space to gather. Highly recommend for a quiet coffee date, a meet-up with friends, or even hosting a small event. 💛”

“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.”
“Used to eat here a lot as a kid and the kids wanted to try it. 10/10 from my crew! The words “this is better than Olive Garden” is something I never thought my kids would ever say (they are avid connoisseurs of OG). 22 year old said she wanted her birthday here. 10/10 on everything!”
“They’re giving back to their community in a tremendous way. That’s honorable and worthy of recognition.”
“The wattress was amazing. The wine , food, atmosphere is exceptional. A party of 8 and everyone was extremely happy. Will visit again.”

“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.”
“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!”
“Tried for the first time…I got the bourbon chicken, cajun rice and spuds. Personally I feel like the chicken is a little too tough. You also must get the sauce on the side too for dipping or else it’s too bland…I feel like I would have liked the blackened chicken better. The star of the show though was the rice!! So delicious!! Potato’s were good. Could have been a bit more salted but other wise yummy. I will be back to try the blackened chicken and their yummy cajun rice.”
“The food came out hot and tasted really good, which was definitely the highlight of the visit. The restaurant was quite busy when we stopped in, and it seemed like the servers were handling a lot with a smaller staff. Because of that, the service was a little slower than usual, but the staff were still doing their best to keep things moving. Overall, I had a decent experience and understood the situation given how busy the place was. The hot, tasty food made the visit worthwhile, and I would give it another try.”
“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!”
“We had a baby shower at The Amber Rose today. The food was excellent, the service fantastic. They were very accommodating to our needs. So many compliments on the facility, and the food It was a great experience, and Joe and his staff did an excellent job”
“Ro was super personable and treated me like family. I was actually having a terrible day and this was a great end to my night: my favorite pizza coupled with world star customer service ! Muchas gracias 🙏🏼”
“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.”
“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!”
“Our server Hannah did an exceptionally great job at making sure our food was correct and we were satisfied with the meal. To be honest, she was the best server
we've had anywhere in a while. If you happen to have her as your server, make sure you tip her well.”
“Simply the Best! Food, service and atmosphere is always top notch.”
“Met friends here for dinner before heading to a show at the Fraze. We had pizza, pasta and salads. All were delicious. The service was impeccable and the atmosphere was welcoming. We'll be back!”
“We arrived at 5 and were greeted by our server, Jason. He was Patient, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Our food was delicious and fresh. The seating is comfortable and roomy. The Jazz musicians were so enjoyable. Thanks for being In Centerville and for our all around great dinner experience.”
“Visited tonight after the recent move... Gulzar's continually knocks it out of the park, time and time again. The new location is absolutely stunning. The staff is always friendly, helpful and attentive. The food is ALWAYS exceptionally good. If you've never tried Indian, the biggest they offer is very reasonably priced and offers a WIDE selection of items to help hone in on your preferences.”
“This is a fun and sociable place. The beer is outstanding and the people are even better.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“This is my 90 year old mother in laws favorite, so we thought we’d give it a try! Friendly service and a great meal at The Chop House in Dayton. We started off with an appetizer of spinach queso, it was full of flavor and the chips were light with just the right amount of salt. The grouper special was incredible and paired well with the rice pilaf and broccoli. The crab cakes were perfectly cooked, (she asked them not to cook hard...remember she's 90) and they made it just right, and the baked potato was spot on. My turkey and dressing was good, though the turkey was sliced a bit thick for me but my husband loved it, the dressing was flavorful and not too salty which is a huge plus for me. The homemade Heath Bar and vanilla ice cream were outstanding. It was rich and creaming and tasted soooo good!”
“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!”
“EVERYTHING is excellent…food, atmosphere, service…a throughly enjoyable experience!”
“Had a fantastic anniversary dinner here last night. Our server was fantastic, the food was fantastic. Really, no complaints whatsoever.
My wife and I enjoyed the Deviled Eggs as an appetizer. She had the veggie burger with green beans, and I had the 12oz Prime Rib with Mashed Potatoes.
Both were great, and definitely made celebrating our anniversary extra special.”
“I just Love this place! I opened this restaurant when it was Mr. Lees! So many great memories! I love Shen the owner that worked there when I was there. He ended up buying the place Keeping the menu and great vibe, Renaming it Shens! Hard work does pay off! Always a warm welcome! Great to see you and Casey! I tried the Grand Marnier Crispy chicken, OMG! I was scared to go try something new, it’s absolutely delicious! It has, strawberries🍓 Pinapples, 🥝 kiwis and 🍊 orange! Served over white rice! Instead of my usual Pad Thai, and 2 new rolls instead of my usual Spicy salmon. The Dragon 🐉 roll is fire just missing row. And the Sunset. Very great food! Beautiful atmosphere! Go here!”
“Had a great time. New and my bestie usually go here for my birthday each year (I never tell them it's my birthday) we get lots of rolls and share and enjoy. This time we tried an appetizer and it was sublime, delicious!! Exceeded expectations. It's called the Naruto Maki and we ordered it twice!! We replaced one if the rolls we were gonna do with another Naruto Maki. So good so good!! The waitress then found out it was my birthday and brought me a slice of cheesecake. She was so kind and so sweet live this location more than Datton South location. Both are great but this one has my heart!”
“Had an exceptional good time with a great vibe and atmosphere!!
To top it off @shae Franklin she is an Amy at tender who knows her mix on drinks - my Apple martini was AMAZING Gooood! She is a joy to meet and serve you with a smile and great top notch service unlike I have reviewed when I come in town!! She saw me when I walked in and took good care of us… She is such an Awesome person who love what she does! It shows!
We stayed longer than we expected because of her great service and the amazing vibe!!
A night to remember with fam!!”
“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!”
“I was born and raised in Italy, I was also a waitress there and served many pizzas. Troni is by far the closest to authentic Italian pizzas in the entire area. Absolutely delicious and well priced. Our family has always enjoyed it as well as the service.”
“Beer 🍺 is great and delicious and smoked wings were bombs as well. The venue is just perfect and so awesome 😎🤩!!!”
“First time here. Will definitely be back. Great atmosphere. We had a blast hanging out and listening to the band!”
“This is one of our most favorite places. It's a wonderful family owned business. The staff are always warm and welcoming. It's obvious that the carefully crafted beer is a labor of love.”
“My boyfriend has been wanting to try fufu and egusi soup for a long time now, and he took me with him here to try it. He says it was very good and very flavorful, and the kindest lady ever spoke with us for a while before we left. I would definitely recommend this place!”
“This is my favorite restaurant in Dayton! The food and service are always amazing!”
“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!!”
“Thank you CommuniTea for hosting our special day. Everything was perfect! 🫖🍯🩷Support Local🩷🍯🫖”
“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.”
“North Village Chinese Restaurant is one of the best, if not the best, Chinese restaurant in Dayton, Ohio. Everytime I go there I usually order something different and every dish I've had so far has been fantastic!!!”
“We had really great service for our group of 12 (with 6 kids) celebrating an adult birthday. Called ahead & the table was set up with kids menus & high chairs. We were seated quickly when majority of party had arrived. Our 2 servers were very attentive to bring drinks, salad & bread sticks (& even extra olives) early so kids weren't starving and they checked repeatedly on drinks & if there was anything else we needed. Thank you to our servers (Noah & associate) & the whole staff.”
“The ribeye was cooked and seasoned to perfection! Beautiful dining area though it is dark so if you have poor sight, you'll need to use your phone's flashlight for the menu. Bathrooms were clean. The bar side of the restaurant looked like it was hopping for a Monday night! Nice patio area though nobody was sitting out there.”
“Incredible! Tonight was my first time at Dozo and I was so impressed. It’s a very special place with a vibe like you’d find in New York. The food was amazing. I had nigiri, edamame, wanton tacos and two sushi rolls - each of them unique and delicious. The service, too, was excellent. If you are looking for a really fun place with a special atmosphere, check out Dozo. Five stars!”
“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 😂”
“Very relaxed and open atmosphere, craft cocktails, small distillery with big flavors”
“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.”
“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.”
“Enjoyed hanging with friends playing bingo and laughing. Wings were awesome”

Anyway, had a great time, chill vibes definitely will be back!”

“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!”
“The Jerk wings are 🔥🔥🔥. Did I add they’re 60 cents from 2-6 M-F??!!! Let’s not forget the happy hour $5 drinks. CiCi made me one of the best drinks I’ve had since moving to Dayton from DFW. It’s called Caribbean Vibes…you won’t be disappointed.”

“Some delicious cheese steaks and pulled pork sandwiches as well as country fried potatoes”
“Mudlick Tap House is easily becoming a regular spot for us. The food is always fantastic—you can tell they actually put care into the menu instead of just serving standard bar food. Their beer selection is great, and the cocktails are always mixed right.
The best part is just how comfortable the place feels. It has a great energy without being too loud or pretentious, and the staff is genuinely friendly and down-to-earth every time we walk in. Whether you're dropping by for a quick drink or staying for a full dinner, it's just a really solid, welcoming place to hang out.”
“Great place I recommend eating here! great service the food was some of the best!”
“Brittany is amazing love this bar great conversation and the best drinks”
“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 order take out regularly and everything is always delicious! The wings, fish, tacos, potato skins are all always seasoned to perfection and hot. An employee named Tina went above and beyond to make sure our order was correct and hot and fresh.”
“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.”
“Street Tacos are generous & full sized with plenty of cilantro, cebolla (onion) & lime + 2 salsas, Mexican style. GREAT JOB PATRON.Accompanied with delicious rice & charro (cowboy) beans”
“Stopped in for lunch with my son. Great food and I love the bbq sauces!! Great food. We did not leave hungry and even took dessert to go. You will not be disappointed, and our waiter was just fantastic!!”
“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.”
“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 ☺️”
“Went for my birthday. Seafood boil was delicious and great portions. Hush puppies were also amazing. Will be backs”
“Me and my party of 13 came in and our server was Cree she was the best server we’ve had in a long time she kept our drinks refilled and food came out quick as well her energy was everything we will be back❣️”
“I really enjoyed driving from Pittsburgh, PA to this wonderful blessed hooters restaurant location from this past Sunday since I missed out the heavenly atmosphere and service these decent waitresses/bartenders really treated me so well while I was either at the tables or at the bar playing it safe by drinking any non-alcoholic beverages”

“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.”

“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.”
“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 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!”
“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 have been to this KPOT location several times. Every time I have had a wonderful time and enjoyed the food. Tonight we had an absolutely amazing server. AJ was very kind and provided exceptional service, which was so very appreciated after our 8 hour drive back home from visiting family. Honestly I don't know how KPOT keeps managing to go above and beyond our expectations each time we visit, but we are consistently leaving very pleased. Great job to the KPOT staff for being amazing at what they do 💜”
“We went to Three Birds tonight and had one of the best meals I’ve had in a minute. The meatloaf and salmon were amazing. I’m pretty mad because their chicken wings ruined the level of good I’m accustomed to. Their dry rub chicken wing is the best I’ve ever had. If you haven’t been there. Do yourself a favor and go there tomorrow. Don’t order the chicken wings because I don’t want them to run out.”
“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”
“What can I say but you have to try this place. We ordered calamari and it was out like three minutes later!!! I had the Lady Finger Set. It takes a lot to fill me and this did just that. Rolls were nice and tight, fish was fresh and vegetables were right on! Not sure which sashimi it was but I dipped it in the calamari sauce and it was out of this world!!!! Ask for that sauce and try it. Black panther was other order and I received a thumbs up. It was also gone before I could get a photo, I guess she liked it.. seriously give this place a try. We will be back to see what the cooked menu is like. Very nice and friendly place.”
“This is such a fun coffee shop in Dayton! I had the Gimme Smore latte, and it nailed the flavor (and even had a toasted marshmallow on top). The staff were super friendly, and it’s clear how much care they put into their drinks. The avocado toast was also phenomenal - the avocado is whipped with ricotta which creates an extremely smooth texture. This place is a great place to meet friends and just hang out for a bit - lots of different seating options and it’s not overly loud. Can’t wait to go back!”
“Christina was THE BEST. A girls girl to the core! Super personable and thoughtful. Can not recommend her enough. An angel on this worth. Drinks are of average price nowadays.”
“Had a great experience at Mikey’s Late Night Slice! The pizza was fantastic, and I loved all the different sauce options to customize each slice. The atmosphere was fun and unique, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment we walked in. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to again soon!”
“Come hungry because portions are huge.
Small place but great food. The pumpkin cake is like mochi on the inside and very soft and spongy. It’s not very crunchy and had the right about of crisp to it.
The mala soup was the size of my face and wasn’t too spicy. The beef was tender and not overcooked - it was cooked just right. Noodles tasted fresh.”
“It was National Lunch Hero day and my Good friend had stopped at 5 frenchies and gotten doughnuts to bring to My staff and I at school. long story short I chose a Rosebud which I've been dying to try. It was THEE BEST doughnut I've ever had in my 42 years of life. Also the most beautiful doughnut/pastry I've ever seen. I'm hooked! 🌹🤤”
“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.”
