The pizza was hot & fresh, meatballs were big and seasoned well, and the manager is the absolute best. I also usually get the peppercorn Ranch Salad and it has never let me down. Would absolutely recommend.

Very unprofessional I tried to call and place an order over the phone They can't. I walked in and try to explain them Half half They can't. My first and last time ‼

Since moving to Ohio, Dewey's has been on my list of places to try. I finally got to try it this past weekend while visiting a friend in Dayton. We ordered take-out on a Friday night and it was ready in about 45 minutes. We went with a medium (13") southwest BBQ chicken pizza and split a full peppercorn ranch salad. The pizza has a bbq sauce base, topped with smoked cheddar & mozzarella cheeses, black bean-corn salsa, chicken and roasted red peppers. The salad included romaine lettuce, bacon, tomatoes, shaved parmesan, red onions, topped with peppercorn ranch dressing. For some reason I was expecting Deweys to be a mainly carry out/delivery pizza joint, so was pleasantly surprised when I picked up the order -- the inside was packed with people dining in, they have a full bar and plenty of seating. One of the coolest parts was the glass panes that provide direct view of the staff members making the pizzas by hand. There were several children lined up watching, and I also enjoyed watching while I waited for the food to be brought out. The pizza was packed with flavor and I enjoyed the corn and black bean salsa. If I'm being hypercritical, the crust could have been a little crispier and I would have preferred the red peppers to have been cooked a bit more. However, I would definitely order the same pizza again. That said, since they have such a large selection of specialty pizzas, I could also see myself trying a different one! All in all, will definitely be ordering from Dewey's again.

Dewey's Pizza... where do i begin? First off, my lovely girlfriend and i were seated very quickly even when they were busy on a saturday night. and the pizza came out just as fast. Service was a 10/10; i was asked if i wanted a refill, more napkins, a box for our pizza, ect.. i was attended to more times in my hour long stay than my parents did to me as a toddler. just kidding, my parents love me. but that's besides the point, what im getting at here is there was never a dull moment here at Dewey's pizza. As for the food: My amazingly great girlfriend and i got the caprice pizza. the crust was fantastic, softer than my pillow after a 24 hour shift at work. the tomato's were delightful, tasted like they were handpicked from the kind neighbors garden down the street in your friendly suburban neighborhood. and last but not least, the cheese. not too much but not too little, just like little bears soup. it was just perfect!!!! shout out to Dewey's pizza on brown st. Dayton Oh. will most definitely come back on a day where i need a quick pick me up. love the service, pizza, and atmosphere. y'all are the best

First time at Dewey's. Place nice, clean, and busy but not overly busy. We started with a House Salad we split. It was tasty and big enough for both of us. We had a Large Specialty half and half, Don Corleone and Meatball. Don Corleone had plenty of Salami and Pepperoni toppings on a thick crust. Sauce is Spicy along with the Pepperoni. I thought it was ok my wife thought it was much too spicy. Meatball had plenty of Meatballs but was a little lean on the Fresh Mozzarella and Basil toppings. Some slices had hardly any at all on them. Servers were friendly and started out good but they seemed to be short handed and were not able to be as attentive as they should be. To be honest,we won't be back. There are too many other better pizza restaurants.

harvest salad. It's my absolute favorite!

Great pizza. Love to watch them toss and stretch the dough. Great service. Love they can do 1/2 of pizza of different type. Plus the they gave fabulous salads... the harvest is my favorite. They gave redecorated to be covid resistant. Only down side is finding parking is tricky.

Decided to take my nephew out for what should have been a great pizza experience (I have been to Dewey's countless times) for him, it was not! The service was slow, we had to ask for refills, napkins, plates and our salad. The pizza was extremely disappointing, it "flopped" when you picked it up and it was not piping hot. Adding insult to injury, we were never asked about our food by any member of the staff or manager. I would rate 1 star if my previous experiences were as bad. Will definitely think long and hard before next visit. read more

We looked at yelp after a long day of travel. In looking at the reviews, we headed to Dewey's. Our waitress was helpful and got our salad to quickly. A small was big enough to share. We ordered the Don Corleone--- if you like spicy lunch meat this is perfect. But the star was the soft, tender dough crust. It was so good. Restaurant is more than just an average pizza place- more like perfect for a date night. But for 2 weary travelers it was quiet and delicious. read more

I'm always a fan of Dewey's, so I was quite happy to find one so close to our new home in Dayton! And this location didn't disappoint. It's had the same great service and quality of food as any other I've been to. On this particular day it was around 4:30p on a Thursday and there were only a few other tables that were full. This allowed the service to be extra attentive. We love their salads here. In fact, even though I was a vegetarian for twelve years I never really liked salads until I tried on at Dewey's. My go-to it the Grape and Candied Walnut (with mixed greens and blue cheese). But if you can catch the seasonal Harvest (with mixed greens, Boursin cheese, pepitas, figs and bacon), get that! You have the option of adding the cheese chicken, which I do if I'm having it as my entree and skipping pizza. In which case I get the full-size because it's huge and perfectly filling! Hubby and I also got a medium pizza - half Socrates Revenge (an old favorite) and Cubano (the current special). I actually ended up liking the latter even more! I particularly love Dewey's crust. It's not overly thick, but also not thin and burnt. It has the best chew ever! Check them out!! read more

Ordered just a classic cheese pizza for ~$10! The pizza was delicious and served hot. I got a side of ranch that was some of the best ranch I've ever had! We went at 12pm and it was very dead inside. However, the service was quite slow given the lack of customers inside. We were in a rush, though, so partly our fault. The staff seemed aware of this though and worked to get our food out.

Dewey's is the most consistent and made with freshest ingredients to create the best Pie's (pizza) ever. We have been ordering Dewey's since it's opening in Dayton. They never disappoint. Today we ordered 2 large Pie's and 1 Strawberry Macadamia Salad. The pizzas are always amazing and fresh! The first pizza we ordered was half Bronx Bomber and half Porky Fig. The Porky Fig is specialty seasonal flavor pizza. It is super delicious in the sense that you taste salty and sweet flavors in one bite. The Strawberry Macadamia Salad is fresh and tasty with their poppy seed Strawberry vinaigrette dressing. Although it only had 5 quarter cut strawberries in this salad it was still good. We would recommend this location and would take our out of town friends and family to Dewey's anytime. read more

The food is always fresh and great tasting. Pizza and calzones made with fresh homemade dough. You can see the staff making your pizza or calzone from the lobby. Dewey's always has "seasonal" offerings for pizza and salads. I'm not much of a beer or wine drinker, but they offer a wide variety of wines and beers. Service is always top notch. You don't have one waiter or waitress waiting on you. The entire wait staff circles around the floor to ensure your beverages are always topped off and to see if you need anything else. Dessert offerings come from local pastry and bakery shops, such as Killer Brownies from Dorothy Lane Market. My favorites: Pepperoni, Bacon and mushroom calzone with a side of white sauce to dip it in and the Don Corleone pizza with a Caesar salad. For the salads that come with croutons, the croutons are fresh and homemade. Yum! Get the "Thanks" app and you can get $ off food at Dewey's. read more

The service here is phenomenal as a small business was owner I return to places that value me as a human a d here they do. When I'm just picking up they always say hi to my yorkie and very courteous.

Guys! Best perk of this place is that you can order a half and half pizza. The sides don't have to have anything in common, not even the base (sauce). I am so thankful that I decided to stop in here. My husband is a vegetarian and I am not, so it makes it super easy to not fight over pizza! Also, the price stays the same. All that said, plus they do gluten free. I got half Killer Veggie, half Porky Fig. Paired with a side Peppercorn Ranch salad?! Yeah, it's going to be a good night. read more

Pizza is pizza. It's hard to mess it up but even harder to get it right. They get it right. Caesar salad is wonderful. Great dressing and not swimming in it. Split your pie to try more options. We did the Dr Dre and Bronx half and half. Both outstanding. They have a white sauce (not alfredo) that's garlic, olive oil and mozz/fontina blend. Awesome and a nice change from a traditional marinara. It seems they use a group waiting system which is only annoying when 5 different servers ask you the same question within a few minutes. A small bother for never having to wait for anything. Good beer selection. read more

This Dewey's was much like those I experience in Cincinnati, but I made a very important discovery at this location-one I will not forget. Actually, the pizza tasted a bit fresher, lighter, fluffier on this occasion (I'd credit that one to being out of town for the weekend). I digress... As I have come to expect, service at Dewey's is largely friendly, quick, and complete. They were quick to seat, greet, and refill our drinks (helpful as I was a bit parched from running around Dayton all day). The meal the significant other and I had was a cap to our weekend before the drive home to Cincinnati. We split a pizza-half Caprice, half BBQ chicken. Simple enough. Done it before. Many times, in fact. This time though, it was different. I had a stroke of brilliance as I substituted the red peppers (I'm allergic to) for whole roasted garlic. I'll admit I order the calzone from time just to eat those huge, roasted, delicious garlic morsels. It had never occurred to me to add them to this delightful pizza. But I did. And it payed off, in bite after delicious bite of BBQ, chicken, garlic goodness. This location is open and conveniently located in the Brown Street area, by the University of Dayton. It opens to a seemingly shared courtyard with Coldstone and two trees were blooming and beautiful as I looked out onto the patio. The experience was what I expect from Dewey's as a chain, but also much more because we were out of town, it was a great spring day, and I discovered a pizza combo I'm never giving up on now! Thanks Dayton Dewey's for the inspiration. read more

Let me tell you that if you love garlic. I mean like if garlic was the marrying type...this place is for you! I love garlic, don't get me wrong. But I like garlic that disappears by morning like a bad onenight stand. I was so parched (considering our server never came but once and no refills offered)...We walked out of there looking for a gallon bucket of water for the ride home. The taste of the pizza was ok. Not great, not hideous...but one experience was all we needed. Never went back and won't. If you want garlic on your breath, tongue, and a taste bud takeover for days (no matter how many times you brushed your teeth) by all means eat their pizza. Guaranteed you will have zero vampire issues. read more

Despite the pizza being cold after our 20m drive home (albeit in 20degree weather), it had good crunch and flavor, would recommend coming back! Not my favorite in the city, but definitely top 5.

First off, the pizza was great and the price is fine. The next part of the review is specifically…read morefor the buffet experience on Wednesday nights. If you are running a pizza buffet, imo, you should always have at least one each of cheese and pepperoni pizzas in the queue coming out of the oven at all times. I would definitely eat here again. I would probably skip the buffet only because it's a little painful. Then again I'm basically reviewing this one visit I had and maybe it's not normally like that. And even this one visit was pretty good. The people at the counter were extremely helpful and friendly. I revised my review as far as stars go because it really is a good place.

Without a doubt, the best pizza restaurant I've ever visited, and now it's my favorite. I ordered…read morethe 8" pizza for pickup. Ordering online was easy and they keep you updated through text messaging. The interior is very nice, and the staff was amazing. When you pick up your order, they open the box so that the customer can approve that the order is what they were expecting. I am so used to pizza toppings being not only scarce, but arranged as if they were shot out of a cannon. As you can see from the picture, not only were the toppings generous, but they were arranged as if it were for a glamor shot on a cooking show. The pizza was absolutely delicious. The crust was tasty with just the right consistency. The sauce and cheese were perfectly proportioned, as were the toppings. This is a locally owned gem, and I highly recommend you give them a try.

Picked this place for a Valentine's Day date. It was crazy busy. From door to getting food was…read moreabout two hours, but it was well worth the wait. The whole place was being run by four very hardworking people, and they did an amazing job. My metric for Italian food is "could I make this at home," and the answer here was a solid NO WAY. Everything was hand-made, including items I would fully expect to be frozen, like the fried appetizers. We got the fried okra and fried ravioli, and I could happily have just ordered more and had them for dinner. That being said the entrees were also amazing. We got the shrimp scampi, baked ziti Sicilian, and the sausage roll. All the portions were large and everything was delicious. I will definitely be back! Also heard from other guests that the pizza is the best in town, so there's that to look forward to.

Sorry to announce that Giordano's Pizza in Beavercreek is closed…read more We were regulars, and delighted in this Chicago Style Pizza. For those who favored Chicago Pizza in the Greater Dayton Metropolitan Area, Giordano's was the Favorite. Dayton is not a Chicago Pizza market. The pizza was excellent; service fair, and management Terrible. Always a Bottleneck at the cashier; management incapable of learning how to process sales and people. Godfathers in Centerville will open soon to pick up the slack....

I absolutely love their chicken and wedges, some of the best I've had. Additionally, I ADORE their Mac and cheese pizza. They always make it right and it's always fresh and delicious! Try this pizza place if you're ever looking for some good pizza. You won't regret it.

So, am I rating the pizza or the chicken? If this was a fried chicken place that also sold pizza, I…read morewould give it a 4 or 5. Unfortunately, it is a pizza place that does chicken, and their pizza is mediocre at best. I would say their fried chicken and wings are some of the best in the area, and the JoJo's potato wedges are really good too. I have been disappointed in the pizza every time. The crust is sort of a weird hybrid not quite deep dish that always seems doughy. I also found the sauce to be a little sweet for my preference. I don't mind if someone wants to eat here because I can always get the chicken instead of the pizza.

Thumb's up to the staff! They really provide some great customer service. Been asking as every now and then if we need anything. Not too irksome but still polite in a way. Love the pizzas! I came with my whole family so we're on a long table waiting for our pizzaaaaas! Hah! We were glad we dined at Dewey's because it was the best! Socrates Revenge, Don Corleone, and Green Lantern along with the house and Greek salads. Beers for the adults too! We had fun dining here. Waiting also made us really expect and Dewey's did not disappoint. They got parking but can easily get filled. There are parking areas close to the place anyway. Their storefront is very creative. Really catchy. Makes me remember Toy Story. Even the kids do too. read more

Very busy location but well worth the wait. Some of the best pizza and service in the area without question. The crust on this pizza is consistently some of the best crust I have ever tasted time and time again. You simply can not pick a bad pizza here, every single one is delicous. Dewey's continues to be the best pizza in Dayton by providing great service with an even better product. I would highly recommend! read more

Best pizza ever. We had a party of 12 there last night and not one had a complaint. It was our first time there and all 12 said it was the best pizza we've ever had. The atmosphere is amazing and the service was perfect. We tried the Green Lantern, Bronx Bomber, Southwest BBQ Chicken, and the Seasonal Taco Pizza. Couldn't pick which one we liked best. read more

Loving the pizza here! Very, very yummy pizza. Toppings are all over! Service is great too. Staff is attentive and very accommodating. It's a busy place but turnover is fast. I love their salads too! They have desserts which are locally made and that's really good. Would definitely come back again and hoard their pizzas! read more

A very accommodating staff! Dustin, the evening manager, went well out of his way to help me do something special for my parents-in-law who were eating at Dewey's, their favorite pizza destination. I'm from out of town, but I'll continue to jump at the chance to crush a meal at Dewey's whenever I visit Dayton! read more
