20 Best Italian Restaurants in Dayton

“This is the only Fazolis that my husband and I will go to. Tina and everyone are so friendly. Service is great and we've never had a bad meal. It's an older store, however they keep it in tip top shape. There's always a smile and extra breasticks here!“

“It has wonderful Service. really it’s an amazing place to eat! I love it“

“we love coming to eat there We drive all the way from West Chester.“

“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.“

“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!“

“The food was good, but the servers were great. VERY friendly and accommodating.
I've never been a huge fan of OG, but this property was different. I wish it wasn't so far away from home.
Kudos to the serviceing crew“

“The food is always served, so good. And everyone there is extremely friendly with outstanding service. �����“

“we both got chicken and gnocchi soup, it's our fav! had an issue with one dish that came out, it was much much more oily that anticipated, to the point we couldn't handle eating any of it, but our server (i believe her name was Madi) was extremely nice and understanding! replaced it with a different meal and didn't charge us for the other one either. incredible experience! we almost always fill up on the unlimited soup and bread, but it's still worth it because then you get a whole other meal to bring home!“

“Simply the Best! Food, service and atmosphere is always top notch.“

“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.“

“My favorite place to get Italian in Dayton! Nice, cozy restaurant with great servers. The dish I crave - Eggplant Rollatini - it never disappoints. Gotta love those garlic knots too.“

“Every time I have been here (a lot), I have been impressed. The food is excellent & the service is great. I would & have recommended this place. My very favorite!!!“

“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!“

“Got the 8 piece Detroit style pizza, and the “jet 10”toppings. The pizza was surprisingly good for a pizza chain type pizza. Crust was thick, buttery and crispy and there was plenty of toppings. The pizza had a very satisfying crunch. I would recommend this pizza for sure if you’re looking for some good pizza on a budget.“

“Wednesday 5pm. Table for 2. I had a pizza. I was really impressed. It had a thin crispy crust which I like. Dad had spaghetti and meatballs which he said was good. Beer was cold. He felt the place was a bit noisy but I didn't notice that. Enjoy going there.“

“Ordered delivery which they said would be an hour. Called one and a half hours later to enquire about order. Without hesitation they checked, said it was on the way and that it would now be discounted. Love the customer service with giving a discount without having to ask.“

“we live near this pizzaria and it's a really good place I wanted to work here but they said they couldn't hire at the moment, the service is great the employee sure work hard and the food is also delicious like damn gimme more at this point, hope this place gets more recognized hope for the best ♥️“

“I miss when it was on Smithville food was way better taste ys had it a few times on my amazon rout just not the same but biscuits and gravy are on point“

“The Turin trio was awesome. Huge portions, free soar dough bread(2) with butter spread. Good prices for what you get. Cool interior with an actual trolley car inside. Very nice staff also. Highly recommend this place.“

“Perfect Pizza ever time for over 50 years !!! I never visit Dayton without getting a Cassanos Pizza EXCELLENT customer service!“
