My lady and I decided to try the 'Authentic Hungarian cabbage rolls'. I am half-Hungarian, and I know what cabbage rolls should taste like. What they brought out wasn't even remotely close!!!! They were wrapped in something akin to thin leather that you could hardly cut with a sharp knife!! AND---they were prepared without the first bit of sauerkraut!!! As I said before, NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE!!!!!! Their other choices are great, but BEWARE OF THE CABBAGE ROLLS!!!!!!

The ribs are great, not the same old ribs that you get at every other restaurant. It's like going back in time, the good old days !

Visiting from Florida. Brought in 7 guests. I always have dinner there when I come to town. This unfortunately will be my last time. Spent nearly $500.00 to treat our guests. Driest chicken and steak I've ever had. For barbecue chicken, wondered where the sauce was. Not generally one to complain, but disappointed and almost embarrassed.

The food is always delicious and the service is outstanding. This is a great place to go to celebrate something special or just make your day better. The steak and baked potato is hard to beat.

We like to go for lunch late afternoon when there’s fewer people and more quiet time. The outside doesn’t say much for the business but the interior is all class! A very traditional bar and restaurant. The staff are superb and the food is excellent. Thank you all!

Went here based on a friend’s recommendation. We showed up on a Saturday expecting a bit of a wait, which is pretty normal. But to our surprise, there was no host or anyone at the entrance. We waited around 20 minutes, and no one ever came to greet us or even take our name for a waitlist. We weren’t the only ones other people were standing around too, just as confused. Eventually, we all ended up leaving without ever talking to a single staff member. Not a great first impression. It honestly felt like the place was super understaffed. I wouldn’t recommend going on a weekend unless you’re okay with possibly waiting forever just to be acknowledged.

Most Excellent ribs. Get the full.rack or suffer regret. Shrimp cocktail perfect. The shrimp sauce is pungent not overpowering Ask for the dark bread. Salad is just lettuce. Choose another side.. No desserts. Go to Dorthy Lane Market for that afterwards. A must. Atmosphere is 1960, rat pack, mobster hangout quaint...but cool. Tables are tucked tight. Crowded always on weekends. Make a reservation.

This is a classy classic Dayton restaurant. A veteran at the Air Force museum recommended it so we decided to try it. It did not disappoint. Very classic Dayton location.

Started dining here at a very young age (1980's). Even though the 20 ouncer was not a traditional steak, it has always been a favorite with our family. Last week, I discovered it is no longer on the menu. Add some content to the menu to warn steak snobs and mitigate risk of complaints, but please bring this steak back! It may not be for everyone, but this is a good steak!
