“This place is awesome!!! Stopped for the first time today and got the Philly pizza. My girlfriend got the chicken Caesar pizza. Both were fantastic. Garlic cheese bread and Caesar salad were great too. Stephanie, the bartender, was super helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back!!”

“Delicious! The order was ready and fresh when I arrived for pickup. The woman at the counter was very friendly. Plenty of seating available when I walked through during the later lunch hour.”

“Down right delicious pizza. Came in, ordered a sausage and mushroom pizza and a pitcher of beer. Fast service. Nice quiet place to just talk and catch up with friends. Also, for those new to Cassanos, they put some salt flakes under the crust so you get a nice perfect hit of salt with your bites of pizza. It's soooooooo Good!”

“Gran and Go items, chips, drinks and you can also order burgers, pizza and other hot items.Ignore the ‘no condiments’ nonsense in a review below-There were plentyI was there on a slow day and enjoyed my Smoked Turkey wrap. Will be back.”

“Once again another Chipotle experience where any location is always out of something. It makes me not even want to chance it. They had cheese, but would only serve it for Doordash or online orders. I was physically in the store and couldn't get cheese. Pissed off.”

“Solid alternative to Starbucks for your coffee and breakfast needs that is slightly cheaper. They are usually accurate with the order and they are quick. Their egg bites taste better than Starbucks IMO.”

“Oh, my! This was our first time to Pizza Dive and it totally wowed us! We will be back soon to enjoyed a great pizza of chicken cordon bleu (see photo) and the service was awesome, thank Mr. Dalton for taking care of us and making our date night wonderful!!”

“My first time eating at Royal Wok and it will not be my last. Excellent! General Tso's Chicken was dynamite!!! The steamed dumplings are tremendous and one dumpling is the size of two at any other restaurant. Crab rangoons are over stuffed and not all dough!! Absolutely fantastic!!! My husband got steamed shrimp and chicken and it was delicious!!! We will be regulars!”

“Everything they have is always great, the pasta and sandwiches (spicy meatballs and turkey sandwiches). Everything is fresh. Oh, don't forget the desserts, they are really good too.”

“I could never leave a bad review because their food has never disappointed me. I always leave full and happy!!!! So glad the new owners kept the food exactly the same!!!!”

“The food was very tasty. I recommend the Texas style cheese steak sandwhich. The pico and queso definitely give the sandwich a kick! The beer is ice cold. The service wasn't the greatest. Our server didn't check back often or offer refills, we had to ask another server for refills. When we arrived they told us a 30 min wait, we didn't have to wait that long at all! Even though the service wasn't up to par, we will definitely come back.”

“I've been here a couple of times, and have been blown away with each item I've tried. In fact, this place may have the best sandwiches I've ever had. I've tried the cold cut trio, the Tony, and the Gabagool. Each was unique in their flavor combinations, but all hit the same height in terms of taste and quality. Definitely will be looking to try each menu item.In addition to the really, really good food, the atmosphere is great. The small, curated grocery section was fun to look at, the place is decorated really well, and the service was amazing. The person taking our order was extremely welcoming and helpful, and I believe the owner came by and cleared our table and offered us a to-go bag. Just nice little touches that make all the difference.Pay no mind to those 1-star reviews below. This place is definitely a 5/5.”

“Authentic Mediterranean food (at least to my standard) and the service is excellent. I loved my falafel bowl and pita and garlic sauce.I wish I found this place sooner...10/10. Would definitely recommend.”

“LOVE LOVE THIS COMPANY. All their pigs do NOT have MrNA vaccine administered to them. Therefore, I placed an order. Order confirmation was received and with days my order was received in perfect condition. Everything I bought, bacon & sausage patties were the bomb!!! Will definitely buy again & again!!'”

“We were in the area looking for a quick dinner option for my wife and I and our two kids and I mentioned I wanted to check this place out. We did a online order and picked it up on our way home. The food was hot and tastes delicious even following the car ride home. Anymore, if I buy food from a restaurant I am leery if I am getting what I pay for but Chicken Heads over delivers! Two adults filled themselves and two kids leaving plenty for leftovers which heated up well the next day. They kill the chicken business and I would put them against anyone in this area. They can't be matched!”

“Decided to stop in for lunch today around 1, wasn’t super busy so i was sat immediately. A very large restaurant that looks small from the outside, huge menu with a lot to choose from… I went with a 12 inch pot roast Philly on a potato and chipotle garlic fry recommended by my server, IT WAS PHENOMENAL!!!! I will now frequent this restaurant weekly, I HIGHLY recommend eating here.I also met the owner what a great guy!Vegetarian options: Veggie delight Philly, salads, potatoesKid-friendliness: Kids menu, game room with pool table, slushies”

“Upon entering, the ambiance struck me with its spacious yet serene vibe. Initially quiet, the restaurant soon filled with the comforting hum of locals, giving an authentic dining-in-their-country feel. The service staff, speaking with their native accents, added a delightful touch, seamlessly blending hospitality with cultural charm.Portions here are generous, befitting the Middle Eastern culinary tradition. Lamb, a staple in this cuisine, shines brightly on the menu. I highly recommend indulging in their signature lamb chops, a personal favorite. Grilled to perfection, they boast tenderness and juiciness, accompanied by roasted tomatoes and a medley of vibrant green vegetables, adding depth and balance to each bite.For a unique coffee experience, Turkey's renowned coffee culture awaits. Don't miss the opportunity to savor their specialty coffee, offering a delightful departure from the ordinary. It's a fantastic choice for those seeking a memorable coffee journey.Overall, this dining experience promises a savory exploration of Middle Eastern flavors, highlighted by exceptional lamb dishes and a captivating coffee affair, making it a must-visit for food enthusiasts seeking culinary authenticity and distinction.”

“Perhaps my favorite Mexican restaurant I've been to in Dayton (and there are some good ones).Food:I ordered most recently the Chilaquiles Con Huevo Y Bistek Asado (pictured below). It was awesome. Thinly sliced (flank?) Steak cooked well, with nice slightly crispy edges and a good sear. Eggs were sunny side up and tasty. The meat and eggs were served on top of a nice bed of tortilla chips with lots of cilantro, cotija cheese, and I believe lime juice. Rice and refried beans were served on the side and quite good. There are other variants of this, along with huevos rancheros on the menu. The visit prior to this one, I ordered a pambazo (amazing) and an al pastor sope (also amazing) along with some horchata. A note on the horchata: you get your money's worth ($5 for a huge mason jar of it, I think at least a quart?) for the horchata, and it's easily in the top 2 homemade quality horchatas I've had. Definitely worth it.Pro tip: ask for their hot salsa to go with the chips & salsa. It's good. They normally bring out a roja and a Verde salsa, so the spicy one appears to be 'hidden' and complimentary (or priced such that I didn't notice any real increase in the bill).Customer service:Very friendly and knowledgeable staff that is happy to offer recommendations for menu items and such. The food was prepared and at our table in a timely manner, and accurately. Seating is DIY, so choose your seat as you wish. No issues to be had.Note: you pay at the front desk when done eating, and they seem to keep track of the items ordered on their end. So, you pay before you get your printed receipt, if that makes sense. Just a heads up, so you don't wait around thinking a bill will arrive.A very nice restaurant with lots of menu options and doesn't skimp on the flavor.10/10, ¡Mi restaurante Mexicano favorito!Vegetarian options: Dishes with meat are clearly marked as containing meat, at least in Spanish (pollo, barbacoa, bistek, chorizo etc.), so dishes without such labels can typically safely be assumed to be vegetarian. There are lots of vegetarian options, ranging from tacos and burritos to enchiladas. I haven't tried it, but I wouldn't doubt that substitutions can be made to remove meat from most any dish.Parking: Parking spaces are not super clearly marked, but there is ample space to park at the front of the restaurant (facing the road) or other spots facing the building at the front or side.”

“03/09/24: The curry chicken bun is delicious! ? Not dry at all!!Original: LOVE the options! Unfortunately, most of the fillings (especially pork or other meats) are pretty dry, but I'm going to try everything once! The bread itself is TOP NOTCH.”

“Traffic disappoints, weather disappoints, Mondays disappoint, plans disappoint, prices disappoint, women disappoint, friends disappoint, family disappoints, love disappoints, but with each savory bite, Joe's Pizza is a reliable escape from life's letdowns.”

“I have been to LaBase twice now, and they have excellent service! I love their salsa, and they have great margaritas! The service is quick and the food was delicious.Highly recommend!Wheelchair accessibility: They are wheelchair accessible and accommodated our group easily.”

“The food was delicious! They have the best GF pizza in town!The service was pleasant and accurate.Dietary restrictions: Old Scratch has the best GF pizza in Dayton! They are respectful of dietary restrictions and are always careful with our order.”

“I’ve only been once, but definitely deserves another trip! I went on a rainy day, which is perfect because I keep tabs on social media in case they sell out (which tends to happen) so I figured it would be a good time to go with less traffic. It turned out to be a great idea because there was a lot of selection to choose from and was able to get great recommendations. The sweet pies are good, but so are the savory! Quiche was wonderful and reheats well. Don’t miss out on this small gem!”

“Love crumbl and have visited a few locations. The atmosphere and staff are great, sometimes I just feel the cookies at this location are a little dried out or the topping is a bit off compared to the other locations. But I would still go back and definitely recommend.”

“Today, I had the opportunity to go for lunch and I have to say, I do plan on going back. It was busy during lunch time, which to me was a good sign. We looked over the menu and there were a lot of things that sounded good. They had quite a few choices for burgers and the rest of the menu was a combination of sandwiches, tacos, and seafood items. I found it to be an interesting array of options.Companion one ordered the Turkey Rachel, which was I guess what you would call the female version of a Reuben. It consisted of sliced turkey breast, swiss cheese, and coleslaw, on toasted DLM bread w/ 1000 island dressing on the side. Companion one substituted the house made chips for the pub fries. Companion one commented that the sandwich was excellent. The bread was toasted to perfection, so that it did not scrape the roof of your mouth. The ratio of turkey to coleslaw was excellent. Although the dressing was there to put on the sandwich, it was not needed because the coleslaw had the right amount of mayo and vinegar that complimented the sandwich. The fries were excellent as well. Nice and crispy. Companion two had the California burger, cooked medium w/ swiss cheese, lettuce, hold the onions, pickles, avocado spread, and secret boom sauce w/ a side of the house made chips. The burger was cooked perfectly medium and was nice and juicy. Although the onions would not have hurt, the pickles gave the burger a nice pop of flavor that was unexpected and worked well. The bun, which I believe was a brioche was delicious and held up well w/ the juicy burger. The chips were enjoyed but would definitely go for the pub fries next time. Companion three was very intrigued by the sticky fingers burger so an inquiry was made. The waitress smiled and said it was her favorite. The sticky fingers burger was topped w/ melted pepper jack cheese, bacon slices, Asian sweet chili sauce and peanut butter. There were jokes made about the right kind of peanut butter needing to be used. Would it be crunchy or smooth? Skippy or Jif? As soon as companion three picked up the burger, some of the peanut butter fell out, so that answered one of the questions……smooth. As to the brand, who knows, but the burger was excellent. Considered one of the best burgers companion three has had so far this year. The combination of sweet chili sauce and peanut butter played very well together. As a disclaimer though, it was a very messy burger and should have been cut in half. Companion three needed all the napkins. It was felt perhaps the peanut butter should have been on the side, to control how much was applied to the burger. It was also felt that the next time, the pub fries would be a better choice. They were very good. As for me, I was in the mood for fish, so I went w/ the fish and chips. There were a few other fish options on the menu that were grouper. I couldn’t remember if I had ever had grouper before, so I just stuck w/ the beer battered cod and pub fries, with coleslaw. Now, I am usually a KFC coleslaw girl, but I gotta say, this coleslaw was better than KFC. Not too wet and not too tangy. Also tasted as if there were perhaps celery seeds in it that gave it a nice flavor twist. The pub fries were excellent. I don’t know if they were flash fried, twice fried or what, but they were nice and crispy, with just a slight hint of seasoning on them. As for the fish itself, that was a misstep for me. There was no seasoning on the fish or batter. There was really nothing special about it. I could have trusted the Gorton’s Fisherman. That was my fault and I own it. However, I will say this, I would like to go back and see what they have for dinner. The prices are reasonable and its worth giving a try. I just might even have to try the sticky fingers burger.”

“Ok, I admit a degree of annoyance as we were just passing through Dayton and I thought it was taking a bit long for our meal to get to the table. Then the food arrived. Easily one of the better meals I’ve enjoyed in recent memory. I’ll come back and gladly wait for food so flavorful and carefully prepared.”

“James was great. We had such an amazing experience here because of him. He answered our questions with ease and made us feel so welcomed. Everyone we encountered was so friendly. Can't wait to come back for some more chicken shawarma with garlic sauce ?”

“My kids and I were visiting Dayton for the day and decided to stop by here and get ice cream before heading home. I'm so glad we did, the ice cream was delicious and the service was amazing. The two gentlemen working were incredibly nice and even offered some water for our trip back. Next time we go to Dayton we will definitely be back.”

“This is our favorite neighborhood restaurant. It has a wide variety of options. The staff are super nice. It really does feel like family.Vegetarian options: They are always willing to make food for any restrictionsParking: Parking on all sides of the restaurant”

“Good place to study! I especially like grabbing a spot along the bar in the back so I can alternate sitting and standing. Good distribution of outlets, which is a necessity when studyingTheir drinks are good and reasonably priced. The pastries are okay, but the grilled cheese is incredible”
