“I have been wanting to try a carrot hotdog ever since it made it debut on social media! I am so thankful for the skillful young men at invoke for taking the time to perfect the craft of the smoked carrot hotdog! IT IS ABSOLUTELY DIVINE 😍💗💗 😍... I bought one, sat down and ate it... Then got right back in line to get one to go! 😋😋😋😋“

“Atmosphere and staff are always wonderful, I got the chicken tenders with a salad , I can tell you they never disappoint on the quality and quantity I’ve never left there disappointed… For a nice quiet dinner I can’t think of a better relaxing place“

“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 haven't been in a while! However, every time we go we try to get the same server ASHLEY McDERMOTT customer service is through the roof & I'm not just saying..“

“Very different but excellent food and service“

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

“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!!“

“Will definitely be back - great food.“

“Sueño is now easily our favorite Mexican restaurant in Dayton. The atmosphere is vibrant, with great energy and stylish decor. The service is impeccable, complete with complimentary valet parking! Their cocktails are a highlight, especially 'The Guy,' and the food is out of this world. We tried the chips and salsa, (Salsa del Día), Tacos de Cochinita, and the smoked chicken enchiladas — all were absolutely delicious. The smoked chicken enchiladas were so good that we had to order a second serving. I could eat their chips and salsa every day; the salsa, possibly a fermented pineapple and jalapeño blend, is one of the best I’ve ever tasted. If you're looking for upscale Mexican cuisine, Sueño will not disappoint!“

“Stopped in with my hubby today for breakfast, it was our first visit to George’s. Everything was phenomenal from the food to the service. We will certainly be back in the future!“

“Awesome service! Our server was phenomenal! Great food, and awesome atmosphere!“

“I don’t review on here unless something is great or terrible, and Lily’s is firmly in the first category. I’ve visited since they opened and felt it was a great brunch spot, but the menu was a bit static for date night dinner. I’m happy to say, they’ve knocked it out of the park with their new menu and Tiki Bar theme.
Cocktails were well-crafted and deserving of the price point, food was excellent and the portions were incredible! Best of all was the service. I’ve always enjoyed the waitstaff at Lily’s, but the team they have now truly love their jobs and their customers, and it shows! They collectively serve the customers as a team and work very cohesively. The result was prompt service and getting to interact with multiple wonderful humans. 10/10 will be back again soon!“

“I remember being a kid in the late 70s early 80s buying these pretzels every Friday at my elementary school... back then they were 10¢ each/ $1.00 for a whole lunch sized brown paper bag.💖💯“

“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!!!“

“This is the best sushi I have had in years! Awesome food and very friendly staff.“

“Happy to find delicious Thai food so close to home! I have been several times and they get it right every time. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming with fair prices.“

“Been enjoying falbs ever since I was a kid coming there with my dad an now I bring my kids there from time to time when we get a chance best food ever“

“Great food and great service. My only complaint is that some of the tables are crammed together. It was awkward on Valentine's weekend as the tables were so close in the area I was sat that it felt like we were sitting at a table with strangers. One side was a single long bench and I was maybe two feet from someone else. It was impossible not to overhear all the conversations. Not the atmosphere you want for this occasion.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Nice clean restaurant. Food tastes great. Highly recommend!“

“great vegan menu. food is amazing. the power was out while we were there and we were still accommodated and had fantastic service. the vegan chocolate cake is to die for!“

“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.“

“This brewery had been on my list for a year or so to check out, and I have to see I was overly impressed. We tried 4 of their NE IPAs and each of them were pretty stellar. The space is great, simple modern and perfectly decorated. The bartenders were super helpful and kind, and the cherry on top was that the playlist absolutely slapped. We visit Dayton often, and we will definitely be back.“

“Food was great. Real teff injera with authentic sides. Vegan gluten free options available.“

“The Hasty Tasty is my favorite breakfast spot in Dayton, hands down. The vibes? Immaculate. The food? It tastes like drunk philosophy and well earned hangovers. It tastes like bacon and eggs while my grandma smokes Pall Malls and argues with the next booth. It tastes like college homework. It tastes like snow days when my kids were little and we were broke but wanted to make it special. It is a Time Machine to the best parts of your life in the shape of a building. I hope it never changes.“

“Pizza is always delicious, everyone is very nice and service is super fast!“

“ordered on door dash food was good. it made me want to go there. the staff was great as was the service, and the food was even better there piping hot . I will be back for more.“

“We had not been to this place before and we were traveling on the road so we needed fairly quick service. From start to finish we were very happy with the food. They make their own focaccia and bring a house Blended herb butter. As an appetizer we ordered an olive mix which came warm and in a delectable oil with spice. That helped us finish up the rest of the focaccia. Our entree was one we split and it was plenty for two. It was a pasta dish al dente with clams and nicely ground Italian sausage in a butter sauce. Could not have asked for a better service.“

“Awesome service. Food was amazing!“

“Hoagie's was a staple for me in the 80s and early 90s when I lived nearby and worked in the Poe Avenue area. It had been a long time since I'd visited so I drove over (across town from Fairborn - about 25 minutes one way) and ordered when I got there. I got two pizzas, a whole Spider (one of my all time favorite sandwiches) and the stuffed garlic bread. I grabbed a Coke and sat outside on their patio in the lovely weather. 20-ish minutes later, they brought my order right out to me. It think it was about $40 and well worth it. The pizza was just as I remembered it - the big thing I love is their sauce has a great tomato flavor and isn't too sweet. Great crust and well topped. I ordered my wife's pizza light sauce and they did it perfectly. The Spider was everything I remembered and the stuffed bread sticks might be my wife's new favorite thing. They have a nice amount of inside seating and the staff was very friendly. While I was waiting outside, it was a constant stream of folks coming for pickup orders. Hoagie's is as good as I remember and it will be on our regular rotation going forward. I just made me happy to reconnect with some of those memories from my first job working in that area and to get back to Hoagie's. If you have the chance, you should go.“

“Great food and excellent service. Jherri is the BEST!!“

“A great bar with exceptional food and service. Been coming here for almost a decade now and it’s a gem that has only gotten better with time. Everything I’ve had from the menu has been amazing, but the pickle soup is out of this world. 10/10 get it every time. No visit is complete without it for me!“

“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!“

“The breakfast bowl with chorizo is one of the most delicious things I ever ever eaten!“

“I loved hanging out here, now i love working here. Great drinks, great beer, and a place for everyone.“

“I would like to share a public review of Vegan It IZ Eats, LLC. Where do I begin? I ordered a Scratch-Made Mushroom and Black Bean Patty, Spring Mix, Smoked Coconut, Signature Sauce, Onion Crunch, Pickles, Tomatoes w/House Chips, and it was exceptionally delicious. Everything was fresh, and it was evident that it was made with love. As someone who rarely eats out due to a preference for preparing fresh meals, Ms. Rhea has undoubtedly changed my perspective. I intend to order from her establishment once a month. That sandwich certainly deserves recognition. If you’re in Dayton Ohio or surrounding areas please support this black owner business, you will definitely do the happy dance while eating .“

“SUPER good. love this. people need to check out Burrito King more often. definitely YUMMY! ❤️❤️“

“The Pizza was delicious, the salad was a miss for me, but the atmosphere was very family friendly and had a 80s feel was definitely welcoming I would recommend updating the restaurant. The Pizza had a lot of flavoring and didn't taste like school pizza at all. This is is a great pizza restaurant if you like original Italian pizza, this makes me proud that there are restaurants that make such good Italian pizza. 5-stars“

“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.“

“I performed at Rip Rap Roadhouse last night. It was my first time being at their establishment. The staff was very friendly and patrons very attentive to the music. I didn’t eat but also the food looked fantastic.“

“Kylie was our amazing server today for our first visit in...she was awesome and so was the food and the atmosphere! Highly recommend 😁“

“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“

“It's the best place to eat brunch! a lot of gluten free options. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to be kind! 5 stars!“

“1st time there. I had the Bourbon Chicken with steamed veggies. Small. Plenty of delicious food! The staff were so friendly. Juicy tender chicken. I would love to have the recipe. Dayton locals, you have a great treasure of food awaiting you!!! Thank you!“

“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!!“

“The food was absolutely amazing! The staff was very nice. We will definitely be back soon!“

“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!!!“

“I call them and in 15 minutes food is ready“
