I visited this place yesterday, and it was a pleasant visit. Their menu is a very limited choices and pricey. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. I ordered Bang Bang Shrimp was fantastic, fish tacos didn't like it, and brownies was just ok. I highly recommend this place for crazy rich people. read more

Food was good- service was not. Husband and I enjoyed dinner each having bread, bang bang shrimp, salad, filet steak with broccoli and shared a cheesecake for dessert. Very happy with the food, bread and olive oil is tasty, steak was tender and cooked perfectly. Salad was ok- could use help on the salad but overall food was really good. Service on the other hand was slow. Waiter was nice and we even overheard him telling a coworker that he needs money but if that's the case- he should provide good service for a good tip. We tip well- usually 20% - 25% but not time- we sat for a long time to order after our drinks were provided, food actually is brought out quickly probably bc it is by others but we sat for a long time for refills. Definitely need a drink when eating bang bang shrimp it is just delicious but alittle spicy. Had to request refills each time when he finally came by our table. Then took a long time to bring our card back when we paid. Will be back bc the food was great - we seen another waiter checking on his tables several times- that's a good waiter- hopefully next time we will have better service. read more

We've been here several times over the years. Always ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. They did not disappoint. However, tonight's experience was odd. No problems with the service, but the rest of the food was off. To be fair, it's the first time I've ordered their Wagyu burger (I had an amazing one at Taft's Ale House in Cincinnati). The burger was over cooked to the point it could have been ground chuck for all I could taste. My daughter ordered the chowder which tasted watered-down, and her pot stickers were cold. I hope this isn't a trend there. I would hate to think this is who they are now. I would grieve the loss. read more

Went for a second time and just not that impressed with the food. The waitstaff was amazing as the front of the house.

Very good, but not great. We were greeted by a woman who "had to stay by the hostess stand" while we waited for her coworker to seat us. Our waitress was good and the food was very good: very fresh and well prepared. The dumplings were incredible! read more

Breakfast offerings are slim, but good. Dinners are much better. Service at Breakfast was slow

Awesome ! Amazing customer service and always a wonderful experience ! The food and atmosphere are always delightful.

No wait for lunch!! Beautiful establishment. Best crushed pineapple Martini ever!!!!!

The food is very mediocre for the price. We went in at open on a Saturday morning and the floors were disgusting. The whole place seemed to have a sticky residue. The bathrooms were even dirty so they clearly don't have much of a standard when closing down the restaurant at night. Not a place I would go back to. Our server was fine but we were literally the only table so it's hard to get an idea of how it would be at peak time. read more

First time visit and definitely will not be the last. Ryan was our waiter, he was helpful, friendly, and on top of everything. My date and I chose to do the $55 deal. It came with an order of Bang Bang shrimp, we both chose an entree and a dessert to share. Let me start with the shrimp. I only wanted it because everyone on here said to get it. GET THE SHRIMP!!!!! I don't even know how to describe it other than an explosive party in your mouth! I am not kidding. It was amazing. So much that we even at the lettuce that it rests on because it had the sauce on it. Were we SUPPOSED to eat it? Who knows. But we did. I ordered the lobster stuffed shrimp. It was very good. It came served on a bed of creamed spinach that was tastey too. My date got the Mahi Mahi it was cooked perfectly and the coconut sauce was very good. His side of mashed potatoes was on the cold side but the flavor was good so he ate them anyway. A manager stopped by to check on us and after letting him know it was our first visit and how much we loved the shrimp he gave us a card for a free shrimp the next time we come to make up for the potatoes. We finished our meal with the macadamia nut brownie with ice cream. It was really good but I'm glad we had to share because we were really full! Adding two drinks brought the bill to $77, which for me is pricey. I don't mind splurging for a pricey meal now and then as long as it's worth it. This place is worth it!!! read more

Come here often for small business dinners 3-5 people and they are always very accomodating. Servers and bartenders are usually attentive and the manager always stops by once or twice to ensure we are enjoying our meal. I think my group likes it, but I can see it being a bit too much sometimes. Bang bang shrimp is always on our bill, sometimes I get it as my entire entree. My favorite dinners are the sea bass or raw ahi tuna steak with any sauces, you really can't go wrong. No doubt I will be back soon! read more

Good competent table service and a nice waitress but some service glitches. The food was decent but absolutely no "wow" factor. Basically they don't seem to try too hard to make the experience special with the menu items. We got an advertised $45 for 2 three course meal. I had rainbow trout, blackened and my wife had a shrimp with a glaze. The trout was bone dry with no moisture apparent, and they provided absolutely no lemons or tartar which I had to ask for separately The side items are very boring: a flavorless "jasmine" rice, fries, whipped potatoes, and a boring side vegetable (broccoli), with premium sides such as a creamed spinach. I ordered a martini and without asking me she brought what I found to be a vodka, not gin martini. Took forever to receive water when we were seated. I guess for $70 for the bill I shouldn't expect anything special because pandemic, pandemic, pandemic, keep repeating it like it is this barrier to making things nice. It was OK but I do much better at home. No wonder nobody's eating out. read more

Finally tried this place on a Tuesday evening. The place was empty but it took awhile for anyone to greet us. We enjoyed an appetizer and the complimentary bread/dipping oil. Our food followed pretty quickly, which was the bang bang shrimp tacos (Delicious!) and a Caesar salad with grilled salmon. Very impressed with each dish. Surprisingly the French fries also tasted very yummy, which came with the tacos. Probably one of my new favorite salmon Caesar salads. We look forward to returning and hopefully exploring the whole menu once things change with the COVID regulations. read more

YAY for Red Lobster being packed and with a 20 minute wait! We were starving and in the mood for seafood. We strolled by this place and although I saw a few couples walk in wearing suits and ties and I was in jeans and a hoodie, we decided to give it a try and pray to God that it was decent and that they didn't make you put on a suit jacket or tie! After reading all the tips and reviews about the "Bang Bang Shrimp", I decided to trust my fellow Yelpers and order that. THANK YOU, YELP. This was the most amazing thing I've ever tried. It was sweet, tangy, spicy, crunchy and soft all in one bite. We ended up ordering two others and spending 27$ on just appetizers. Out of this world delicious. I decided to order the 6 ounce sirloin steak as I was already kind of full from the 3 orders of bang-bang shrimp and although it was tasty and cooked perfectly, it was incredibly small. If this is your only meal and you can pack away the food, order something bigger! It came with fresh green beans (which needed salt and pepper and the pointy ends cut off) and mashed potatoes. All in all, if I wasn't incredibly hungry, I'd order this again. My husband had the pasta and had the salmon added in. He loved the pasta but wasn't a huge fan of the sauce they used which didn't compliment the salmon very well. He would order it again, but would probably have chicken or shrimp added instead. I wouldn't exactly say this place is exactly kid friendly as the place is dark and more set up for an intimate setting but they do offer kid's meals with crayons. They are also free to draw on the brown paper they used for a tablecloth. Although I wish their craft beer selection was bigger and the menu was more extensive, we had a good solid meal here with a friendly, helpful waiter and the bang-bang shrimp was absolutely delectable. We'd choose this again over Red Lobster any day! read more

Phenomenal. Always great drinks, great servers, and stellar food. I always eat the George's Bank Divers scallops. (It is incredible!) My son always orders the Wagyu Beef Burger. Husband will eat anything in the menu. It can get busy. Make a reservation. Best happy hour in a 25 mile radius. Best severs in a fifty mile radius. Manager always comes by table to ask about service and food. Reasonably priced for quality of food. Love this place. read more

Bonefish Grill - George's Bank divers scallops, fresh green beans over Parmesan risotto. Awesome! - Seafood Near Me - Dayton, Ohio

I liked my blackened fish tacos. The bread was a nice touch but would have preferred side dessert over side of broccoli

I know this is a chain restaurant, but boy, oh boy, I sure do like one of such high quality. My date had the scallops and shrimp, while I had the chilean sea bass with mango sauce. I would choose chilean sea bass over steak any day and I do love steak. The portions were just right and both dishes were very tasty. Two small issues would be the asparagus just wasn't cooked enough -- too hard to both cut and eat -- and the mango sauce did not really add enough flavor to the dish. But, give me a chilean sea bass done well and I don't care. We ordered the chocolate cream brulee for dessert to share and that was a wise idea as it was rich and decadent. We had lovely service and, even though it was quite packed, we found a table in the bar and were tended to immediately while waiting for our table. Our server was equally attentive. read more

I've had takeout several times. The food is low quality compared to in-house eating. Portions are small. The bang bang shrimp is served dry with a tablespoon of sauce on side. The Cheeseburgers are way overpriced when compared to what you get, although this is a fish house so that was expected. The fish taco's were messy. The salad was ok but again not enough dressing so it was rather dry. All experiences with takeout have disappointed and are directly related to food prep, I'm hoping they can fix this. I will add that in-house dining is much better. read more

We really enjoyed the meal tonight except for the Mahi Mahi. / shrimp. The burnt taste was just too strong and couldn't do it. The shrimp with it was ok. I will say that the service was quick and the pineapple shrimp special was delicious. The servers were so nice and you could tell everyone was working hard and working safe. I definitely will go back. read more

Awful food! Terrible taste. Had reservations for 7:15 pm we were not seated till 8:00 pm. Hostess told everyone that came in with reservations that it was a 30 minute wait! Which was not true. They major over booked. Bad all the way around! Will not come bad and will not recommend to anyone. read more

Honestly pretty disappointed with our experience. 1. Waitress brought me the wrong drink. Asked for a Moscow mule and received a mojito. Very good mojito however I wasn't expecting to get that. 2. For main course, we asked for a medium rare steak and the steak was well done. 3. Waitress brought out salmon instead of chicken. I'm not very sure how you can confuse the two but it happened. The food was as best average. We have been here before and have heard great things, but this experience will prevent us from coming back. Pretty disappointed. read more

Had dinner with a friend. Every dish served was impeccable!!! We had post stickers as appetizers, I had Mahi Mahi and shrimp with asparagus and mashed potatoes. By far the best I've ever had with all dishes. The asparagus was cooked to perfection! It was probably the highlight of my meal. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! read more

Great service and great food. Good selection of food. Not had a bad experience. Recommend reservations during the busy times. Need I say more. read more

Exactly what I was craving! From the calamari to the bread and oil at the beginning, to our entrees everything was delicious and prepared well, our waiter was efficient and saw to our needs quickly, will definitely return. read more

Called for carry out order. First person who answered the phone said it will be one hour but they can take the order know. I said that is fine. After listening to music another person came on the phone. I told her that I would like to place a carry out order. She refused to take the order. I told her I can wait an hour or more for pick up the food but she refused to take the order. One hack of a way to provide service to gain customers trust and satisfaction. Will never again visit bone fish grill. My guess is the establishment does not care as is evident from their behavior on my attempt to place an order. Hopefully, others will see this review and avoid this provider with unacceptable customer service. read more

Great restaurant! Our waiter was fantastic, super friendly and attentive. The bread that is brought out to you is like Bertucci bread and oil which is good but I have to be honest.. Bertuccis won that war. The entrees were great- the shrimp appetizer was the best, could not get enough!!! The mashed potatoes tasted like nothing I've ever had before; I'm curious about it's different flavor but it was great!! Overall great restaurant, would return!! read more

We enjoyed great food and great service. The bang bang shrimp is a must. Swordfish was a treat prepared perfectly. Salmon was prepared perfectly. Sides were common standards. Asparagus was very good. We will be back. Our server Addison was great she checked often and kept our glasses full. Try it you won't be disappointed. read more

Great food, even better service. The shrimp was outstanding with the lemon butter sauce. Bartender Sampson is on top of everything!! You will not be kept waiting. Fantastic. read more

The hubby and I haven't been here in a long time, I can't remember why. My hubby wanted seafood. I was able to make reservations a few days before and I love being able to do that. LOL! We arrived around 7:00p and they were packed(crazy busy)and they seated us within 18-25 minutes I think. We were satisfied with that. Our server was really nice. And really attentive. Awesome. We had the bang bang shrimp to start. It was really good. He had salmon, he said that it was really good. I had fish and chips, the fish actually tasked good.l,The breading was terribly wrong. Thick and gummy. Not good. Good timing, our waitress asked how everything was and I told her, she immediately took it back to the kitchen and asked for another. Great! Very,very soon after she walked away with my fish, the manager stopped by asked how everything was... Lol, great timing, I told him about the fish and that the waitress was taking care of it. He was so nice and speedy. He went back to the kitchen and brought a fresh/new dish of fish and chips. He asked me to try it out. Ugh, I hate that part. I cut into it and it was still gummy(maybe it's the crust, Im not sure). He asked me how it was,I told him,he asked if I wanted a new one, or if I wanted a new dish or whatever. He stated a few! I said, Crab cakes. He went to the kitchen and came out almost immediately and it was really good!I was happy. We left it all sorts of food. Then he/they only chargedfor my hubbies. WOW, I didn't expect that. But im not surprised, they were great. What could if been an unpleasant experience, turned out to be a great meal/time. I totally will be back. Sorry for the delay in posting this. It was last Friday April 7th. *a BIG thank you to my unnamed(im sorry I forgot to ask) waitress and manager. check out the 7:15pm 4/7/17, 2 people, im pretty sure it is under my name. Thank you so much! read more

This was the 1st time we have eaten there and the service and food was amazing. Samson the bar tender was great along with John our server. We will definitely be back. read more

First time at a Bonefish grill! The IMPERIAL DIP was spectacular, but unfortunately all that followed was just mediocre! I have had fish tacos at 2 other places and these came in third place as far as texture and flavor. My Hubby's sirloin seemed less than 6 oz., was very grisly, way underdone as well as under seasoned and his sides were both cold. After a 2+ hr drive home ... he is talking about being hungry! grrr Our waiter did served us well! read more

We there for dinner tonight. Bang bang shrimp awesome.. my dinner was good shrimp and scallops. My fiancés's dinner on the other hand. The carb crusted cod not so good . The fish was dry and tasteless. Sad when we spent 75 dollars.. haven't been there in a long time .ohhh and it was happy hour but my glass of wine was regular Price... wth read more

In a city like Dayton, there are very few non-franchised restaurants. This can make it difficult on deciding where to eat as most cities have Applebee's and Max & Ermas. Bonefish is another franchise, but a notch above the rest. The decor is nice with a decent bar for watching the games. Unfortunately the bartender messed up my drink order the first time. The food is good with larger portions than most places. The service was ok. Our waiter didn't seem to know much about the food and only sampled a few items. When the food arrived, it all tasted very good and not very expensive. I wouldn't mind going again. read more

My husband and I have had some great meals at Bonefish in years past, but on our most recent visit we were very disappointed the food quality has gone down severely. Like, everything was prepared just like Red Lobster and I'm certain they've changed chefs or just started buying cheap food and using poor service tactics. Our service really wasn't great either, my drink was wrong and our waitress left us for like 15 mins before taking our order. My husband ordered the Chilean Sea Bass with a house salad, I ordered shrimp and scallops with lime tomato sauce and a Caesar salad and our child got a cheeseburger. BFG gets 2 stars for the salads which are still delicious. Served on a chilled plate, generous portions and delicious flavors. My meal was a disaster, the tiny scallops were overcooked and smeared with pesto which I didn't order. The shrimp were also covered in pesto and sat on top of the scallops, making them all a watery, rubbery mess. The meal is served with "seasonal veggies and a choice of one side" so I asked about the veggie and the waitress told me it was cous cous, which isn't a veggie but a grain. I think seafood with cous cous AND potatoes is a bit of a carb-load. We decided to switch from cous cous to broccoli. The broccoli was 100% mushy and microwaves and topped with an extraordinarily salty coating. I love broccoli and I hated this. The potatoes au gratin were scooped from a large spoon (think lunch lady style) and room temperature. At one point, our toddler spilled her water all over the table. The waitress came over and looked at it, mentioned it and didn't bring any napkins or attempt to clean it up. The the manager came over asking "is everything wonderful?!" The walked away without seeing an enormous mess on the table. Then she brought over our bill without offering dessert. Since we were celebrating, we ordered the macadamia nut brownie. It was completely tasteless and microwaved to a searing hot, just molten hot sugar flavor and bland ice cream. Bonefish had been one of my favorite chain restaurants but we will not be coming back. read more

I was in town for business and decided to try this place out. It was $5 bang bang shrimp Wednesday, so I was sold. Service was adequate. Nothing special. My server Alicia seemed aloof and less then enthused to serve me or answer questions. Overheard her recommending various entrees and the bang bang shrimp to nearby tables. Not the case for me. No bueno Alicia. This was first and likely last time at BF. You represent BF and first impressions mean everything! The hostesses were very snooty. I didn't really appreciate the attitude because I requested a booth. Ordered the thermidor lobster mahi mahi with Rick shrimp. It was good. The bang bang shrimp were also good, they reminded me of a buffalo wing sauce. I wasn't head over hills about this place, but I suppose for Dayton it was one if the better choices. read more

For Dayton, not bad. Moderately priced, friendly service. Nothing is terribly impressive or memorable, nor bad.

I had a pretty miserable experience two days before at another BFG in west Chester so I thought I'd give this one another shot Sunday brunch. My wife's sting ray punches er, I mean scallops were overcooked as were my muscles. Both rubbery and dreadful. Seems like the best dishes of the day were the mayonnaise soaked shrimp and the hamburgers. This was a family gathering at my wife's request. This signals the absolutely last time I spend money at a bonefish grill. The only positive note about this or the previous visit was the staff. Your servers are still outstanding but that doesn't make up for your red lobster like quality. For shame. read more

So. My partner and I had been talking about going here for awhile. Finally did that as a Valentine's dinner. Had an early reservation, but they seated us on the side full of people. With a loud kid. But, we ordered our drinks and Bang Bang Shrimp. Shrimp was hot and crunchy, but I expected more. I had a beer, which was reasonably priced since it was happy hour. Partner not so impressed with her mixed drink. We made the mistake of ordering dinner at the same time as the appetizer. When the entrees came out, our server insisted that I cut into my filet as the kitchen "has a tendency to undercook steak". I wanted medium rare. This was still on the cow. She took it back and suggested I "nosh" on my sides. THAT is where we screwed up. My partner's fish had been under heat lamps for awhile and I got to nibble on fries (because there's no baked potatoes???) while I waited for my steak. We later agreed that what we should have done was send it all back and get hot meals at the same time. Her fish was lukewarm, my steak was basically raw and why should I have to eat sides in lieu of my steak? Got a free piece of cheesecake for the trouble. Woo hoo. Didn't ask for it, was nice that they offered, but still. Spent $100 for something that was worth about half that. Been there, done that won't go back. read more

If you enjoy seafood, this is the place to go. Swordfish was great, Wolf Fish was even better! If this is your first visit, try the Wolf Fish and get the Bang Bang Shrimp, that's a must. Margarita was excellent also. I would say that this is a couple of notches above the other franchise restaurants. Also, could not get over how knowledgeable the waiters were. Very professional. read more

Seating was 20 Mins on a Sat night at 6pm- Not bad. Service was rough at first (Didn't get my drink until after the appetizer) Food- Shrimp Flatbread was GREAT! Good spicy topping- Yummy Yummy shrimp. I got the Ahi Tuna "Tokyo Style"- It tasted just like sushi- Tons of Seasame if you are into that. Ginger and Wasabi to boot. Overall- Not a bad night. $$ was medium Food was Ok, service was Ok. I might be back to get a good cut of Swordfish next time instead! read more
