18 Best Italian Restaurants in Dayton

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

“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!“

“I haven't eaten at Olive Garden in a very long time. I did an online order. My order was ready exactly when they said it would be. The food was great ,and the portions were very generous. The salad and bread sticks were very fresh as well. The door staff were welcoming and directed me where to pick up my order.
Nice job to everybody involved.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 ☺️“

“They’re giving back to their community in a tremendous way. That’s honorable and worthy of recognition.“

“We hardly ever go out to eat, but wow was this experience incredible!

We had a back room with plenty of table space to not be on top of each other!

Our server, Roo, was phenomenal, she went over the top on service! She was kind, patient, didn't rush us, and was even wonderful with the kids!

Thankful to have had a great experience at Olive garden on father's day!

Great food, great service, plenty of parking, quite atmosphere, and friendly staff!

Well done!“

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

“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 Jet’s Pizza for the first time in a long while here on my end and I just want to give a big shout out to Justin Kemen working there - he went above and beyond with the customer service for what he did for me that day. The Detroit Deep Dish is delicious from you guys as well! Justin big up!! I really appreciate you much my man!! Great customer service at this Jet’s Pizza on Far Hills in the Gem City 💎…..and good pizza outta Detroit as well!!“

“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!!!“

“Come with family, come on a date, or come by yourself the food is so good! I have tries mamy pasta dishes and I am happy to say I have loved them all. The Drunken Shrimp is my favorite pasta dish that has a nice kick and tons of flavor. The Linguine Bolognese is so good, the Shrimp Scampi is light and tasty, and even the classic Spaghetti and Meatballs is good. I have not personally had the pizza but my mom raves about it. She customizes her pizza each time or orders the special and has never been disappointed with what she gets. She also recommends the espresso martinis. Great food, lovely place, great service and a must try for the area. I promise you won't be disappointed and order the choclate mousse for dessert.“

“I wanted to order 4 of their huge sheet pizzas for my workplace (Miami Valley Hospital NICU) for a lunch on a Sunday. I always get nervous because you never know if the order is going to come when it's supposed to and if they'll find the right place to bring it. They communicated when they were on the way, knew exactly where to come, and when I had ordered it the day before for noon, they showed up at 12:00 on the dot!! And the pizza was awesome too!“

“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.“

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

“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.“
