Truly one of the absolute BEST places in Dayton. My birthday dinner here last night was one of the most fantastic I’ve ever had. The food and service were amazing. (Scallops, mussels, pork chop, crème brûlée, dirty martinis, espresso… all to absolutely die for…) Limoncello and talking with Chef Dana at the end of the night was the cherry on top for an absolutely perfect evening. I appreciated our server’s patience and kindness with our loud, large group. Having been a server, I know it isn’t always easy. All in all, they made it such a wonderful night, after a very difficult week.

We came here very random on a saturdaynight. As we are from Europe and had no clue where to have dinner We also did not had any reservation. The host was very welcoming, we waited for like 5minutes till our table was ready. Our waitress was very kind and helpful with the menu aswell. Everything on the menu looked soooo good! We wanted to try every single thing. You won’t regret eating here and def would not return empty stomach. As the portion are perfect If you are really hungry. It was soo tastefull! Compliments to the chef and all the staff working there! Def place to be if you are in Dayton area!!! 5 STARS!

Really good food, great service, nice atmosphere! This is one of our favorite places for a really nice dinner out in Dayton. I had a Caesar salad, the filet mignon and brussel sprouts with a glass of “The Arsonist” red wine. My wife had the winter mercato salad, chicken toscano and a glass of the Villa Maria white wine. Brussel sprouts were amazing…it was all great but I guess I expected the filet to be amazing and it was, but the brussel sprouts exceeded expectations.

Great ambience and great staff. The flavors were pretty good on the appetizers and sides. Four stars for interesting entree options but lacked outstanding flavor or anything unique to justify the main course pricing

Phenomenal food and service every time we’ve been there for date night. You can get some interesting meals from swordfish to a steak that’s a solid 3″ thick and almost perfectly square. It is close to paid parking. Expect $60+ per plate. (I do include tax, tip, and other stuff that should just be in the dang price anyhow.) We had an appetizer, 2 cans of beer, steak, and the vegetarian pasta at ~$130 out the door. Everything was amazing. The steak was perfectly cooked to a rather picky persons medium rare. Seasoning is on point.

Great food, good service, nice place! It’s not cheap ($50-60/person with drinks, appetizers, meals & dessert).

100% delicious. Made reservations for a date with my wife and had a fantastic time. The restaurant is had a beautiful well lit entrance and a ton of cozy quiet corners for tables. The food was amazing. The mushroom scallops is VERY good and the veal chop was everything that you could want it to be.

We got there around 5:30pm on a Wednesday and had no wait. Our server was knowledgeable about the food, he was attentive and friendly.

Chet was an amazing waiter. The food was seasoned well! Very flavorful! Drinks were great too…not skimpy on the liquor. Great atmosphere. Loved my first experience and definitely will be a new favorite spot!
