“I am 1st generation Italian...I LOVE THEIR FOOD!!“

“best pizza in town hands down.“

“This location is absolutely horrible like the workers hate their job so bad they are always rude. The manager was so rude with me. He didn’t care that. I said I would leave a negative review. He made them charge me for a large bowl when I got a small bowl just because I wanted a little more noodles. I’ve been going to this location for over 10 years literally when they first opened only reason I came back cause I start working somewhere that was close to them again now I drive the extra 20 minutes to the Miamisburg location where I’m always treated like a valuable customer Stroop location would never give me sugar from the back for my lemonade, claiming they didn’t have any, but the Miamisburg location gives me a small container of sugar every time with no problem I hate this location and I will never return“

“The Absolute best Italian Deli in Ohio. The most delicious Sandwiches and Salads ever. Along with Amazing entries, and delectable pastries and desserts. Ownership and staff that treat you like family make Disalvo's Deli a Kettering landmark and my favorite place to eat when I'm in town!! My highest recommendation!“

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

“Best pizza ? ever Best Italian food ever“

“Good Food & decent prices 💰💰“

“This restaurant would be just another Fazoli’s without their amazing team member, Caitlin. She takes customer service to another level in 2025. She’s friendly, always offers a smile and personalizes each and every interaction with patrons. Not to mention she follows up with customers to ensure their experience is a positive one in the dining room. A+ Caitlin!!!“

“Always love their food and service ❤️❤️“

“Edi Mae approved ✅ Only complaint is the cashier was very rude and acted like we were stupid because we had questions. Can’t remember her name but she had short blonde hair.“

“This location was amazing tonight even though they was busy and it was a bit crowded the service was excellent the food was really good and fast our server stayed on top of things and I noticed all of the servers were on top of things with the tables with refills and making sure everything was a great experience. I got this stuffed chicken marsala and my boyfriend got the breaded shrimp with breaded onions and breaded green bell peppers it was right next to the appetizers and it was really good and I know that because I tried his food LOL my son got the pizza with french fries and he was happy with the pizza it was really cheesy in the portion was excellent for the kids menu and a great price at that“

“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!“

“And unusually off-pace night for Olive garden. We were first seated at a table by the windows and the draft and cold temperature was too much to take. We were accommodated and moved to a corner interior table (without a smile or empathy). Then in an unusual and unfortunate situation, I had to use my coaster to kill a small bug on the corner ledge. This has not happened before and I assume it's just part of being in the world as there were no other occurrences. Nonetheless, It was a distraction. Food there is usually good. The salad is always fantastic. Service was fine“

“Strange thing is - I've lived in Beavercreek since 1980, and I'm pretty sure the Olive Garden was built sometime in the mid-late 1990's, but I never once visited there until around 1, and a half - 2 years ago.

However, since my very first visit, I've enjoyed it every single time. I like the design, and layout of the place. I like the fast, friendly, service, and of course - most of all - I LOVE THE FOOD!!!

I was there this past Thursday evening - just a few hours ago, as I hadn't been there in a while, and missed it. Anyway, I wasn't disappointed. Once again thoroughly enjoyed my meal.

I'll hopefully visit there again here soon, during the holidays.

Thank You Olive Garden, and Merry Christmas to everyone.“

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

“Absolutely love this place! I stop in every chance I get. Everything I’ve had is delicious but my favorite is their pizza and homemade salad dressing! Highly recommend!“

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

“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 ☺️“

“Me and my sister went and has a wonderful experience with fantastic food. It’s refreshing to have great tasting Italian food. Our family is from Italy so we are picky. We will for sure highly recommend.“

“Just good food and great service! ❤️“

“This ranks in the top tier of pizzas I have had, and I feel like the only think keeping me from giving it a 5 (I wish I could do 4.9) is the hot honey. I ordered the angry beekeepers w/extra hot honey, and the hot honey is too subtle to taste. I really wanted that sweet heat to come through, but it was invisible to the taste even ordering extra. That being said, the fresh Mozz, salami, and basil with the wood fire crust made for a sublime pizza experience. We're over the road, and we hunt for indie pizza shops, and this easily falls in the top 5 (not counting Chicago style pizzas in the ranking. That's a pizza to itself). The server at carry out was very pleasant, and checked the pizza before giving it to me, and that was a nice extra touch. Overall, Old Scratch is no joke. Experts in the pizza game. Among a highly competitive market, they stand above most. I can't wait to eat here again.“

“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.“

“I was driving by and saw the Little Caesars sign and thought that would be a good treat for my drive home after a long day.

Shout out to Rachel who offered to make me a fresh pizza 15 mins before close. I work in a service industry. There is a lot of bad customer service these days but she was polite and friendly and accommodating.

Good pizza with a smile, can't beat that! Made my 1.5 hr drive home that much better.“

“First time here and food and service were excellent. I was also excited because they had no music which I consider noise pollution when I am trying to have a conversation with a friend. The server told us this was because they forgot to turn it on. PLEASE, keep it off. It was wonderful. I go to a restaurant to enjoy food and conversation, not to listen to a concert.“

“Our intro to this location was less than inviting as we accidentally went up the steps to the to go pickup door. The steps were very unkempt. Also, we counted only seven or eight cars in the parking lot at 7:00 p.m. on a Friday night and it made us wonder if the place was closed.
We were redirected to the correct desk and spotted a number of folks at large tables and a few people at the bar, our destination. whew, looking ok inside.
Bartender Steve was awesome and made a killer martini for RRR and a glass of red for me which we enjoyed along with the complimentary bread.
Insalata della Casa for both of us and we split the Pasta Bravo.. It isn't my favorite but it's ok and the chicken is nicely cooked. RRR was very happy with it.
We're just glad to find a Bravos.“

“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!“

“What can I not say about this place. After growing up in Centerville, I now live in Columbus. I almost always go to Marion’s when I am in town and get a pizza to go. Crust and toppings are still the same as they were 30 years ago. This particular location was closest to my home, and I still have great memories of playing The Simpsons and Street Fighter while waiting for the pizza to come. Just had some this past week and it was still great. Still can’t find anything in Columbus that comes close.“

“One of the best tavern pizzas you can find in the Dayton area, for real. Perfect crust, plenty of toppings, taste was on point! Joes Pizzeria in Riverside gets all the pizza fame in the area but to me this tastes better and I never thought I'd say that because Joe's is really good. Jen was our bartender and did a phenomenal job. We'll definitely be back for more. 🍕“

“Detroit style pizza, nuff said. This place has made me second guess whether I love NY style or Detroit style. Getting a four corners can feed four people. The slices are huge amd fairly priced.
Also, the crew is always on point and friendly.“

“I've lived in the Dayton area for 34 years and never tried gioninos until last week. I've since ordered it 3 times and have been extremely happy with all 3 purchases. This is the best pizza I've found in Dayton. The option to add basil is a game changer. Anything with red sauce should have basil on it, period. No other pizzeria that I know of offers it. You've got a new loyal customer!“

“I ordered Popcorn Chicken however it wasn't until I got home it was replaced with a small amount of grilled chicken...nobody told me they ran out of Popcorn Chicken otherwise I wouldn't of ordered. I did call store and was offered a $5 credit on next order however the meal cost more than that and I rarely eat pizza 🤷 so I would of preferred a refund or replacement. Pizza was ok but most got thrown in trash so waste of money. Brownies were a bit hard but if warmed up they were ok.“

“had the Sunday buffet today, first time. everything was great! excellent food, especially the pizza. service by Chrissy was awesome. we will definitely be back!“

“I’ve decided Jet’s pizza is the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life! Love it! Outstanding!“

“Food was so good we forgot to take a picture before we devoured it! One guy running the place and he was great, smiling and polite. Food was fresh, nice and crispy crust, zero flop! If you watch barstool pizza you know what I mean! Sauces are really good too! I had the 11” thin crust with garlic sauce, pepperoni, ground beef, onions, mushrooms and olives for 10 bucks. Cant beat it, great value!“

“Absolutely amazing pizza that is always up to my high standards. I get my delivery orders hot fresh and delivered with purpose and I like that so I tip well because the pizza guy runs around and puts a lot of wear and tear to get me my pizza and I appreciate that so I try to show them I appreciation through sufficient and appreciative tips cuz he comes rain or shine snow or sleet and I can stay at home nice and warm while he risks his life delivering in adverse conditions“

“Heck yes!!!! Still good as ever! And the slices are the same!“

“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!“
