Well, Marion's has a reputation interesting enough to give it a try. My wife and I were alone and looking for a place to eat so we gave it a try. Pizza is clearly mid. It is a thin crust and I really wanted to like the pizza but it just didn't do anything for me. Restaurant is dated but functional. They are geared to handle big groups so, that is good if you have a group. We also got their Philly Cheesesteak sub and again...just mid. It was a big sandwich for only $9.00 BUT it was like a cheesesteak patty, not broken up like a normal cheesesteak. You had to order your food at one area and then pay for your drinks at another. Girl at the counter was relatively helpful when we ordered but when I needed to ask for silverware the two I asked just somewhat grunted at me that they were "over there" and I had to ask someone else. So, a lot of staff just not engaged staff. So, I can say I tried Marion's but I will most likely not try it again unless someone else is paying and has a strong argument why I should try it again. read more

Meh... I know it's a Dayton "institution," but it's TOOOOOO busy/crowded, and on a Saturday night (I do understand that's a BUSY time...) it almost gave me AGITA as I waited for my mediocre order to come through. Stand ON line (yep, I'm a pesky New Yorker...) and appreciate the semi "well-oiled machine" which is the ordering process here. Unless you're a regular and know exactly what you want, you'd better get a menu, because once it's your turn, you've got a split millisecond to place your order and move aside for the next hungry patron. Service is good/efficient, and you take a step back to wait for your pizza, or attempt to find a table in the HUGE dining area that's AWASH in a SEA of people who seem to appreciate this place a lot more than I did... Go wait on a second line to get your drink and then HOPE you hear you number called for your order. I did NOT hear my number, even though I was standing practically in front of the counter... NOT directly in front, as the harried, overworked cashier (manager?) who begged us not to stand in the most obvious (only available) waiting area. My 9" cheese pizza and "deluxe" dinner salad (no extra veggies that I could see under the MOUND of cheeeese) were "fine," but truly nothing "special." Yep, I'm a NY pizza snob, but I'm willing to try almost anything once, and while the TON of people working here get an A for effort, the HUGE crowd STUFFED into the large, airless dining hall, so-so food and assembly line production are not something I see myself rushing back to experience again. I'm glad the group that I came with gave me the opportunity to see what I'm NOT really missing.... read more

Came around 2:00PM on a Saturday. I think it's a bit goofy that they don't have free refills but it wasn't a dealbreaker. They had a section reserved for a birthday party so it was a little crowded in the arcade but the ambiance was nice and kid friendly. Whole place gives retro vibes. The service was fine and the pizza didn't take long. Super yummy. We'll be back!! read more

Wow. Talk about a blast from the past! I'm going to guess that this restaurant looks pretty much identical to what it looked like when it originally opened, inside and out. Signage, layout, vast dining room with like forty 4-seat tables, and brick arches galore. Kinda felt like going up to the snack bar at a bowling alley to order. Of course this can be bad or good as a throwback kind of vibe. One of those, I know exactly what I'm getting every time vibes. That said, the Dayton Style pizza is pretty on point. Thin, crispy, square cut, bite sized pieces. Another thing that looks dated is the style of sausage they use. It looks like it was extruded through a spaghetti machine. Not necessarily good or bad, just different, but honestly kinda weird. I'm d go back if I was ever back around one, I just usually am driving through (not stopping) when in the Dayton area though. read more

Marion's Piazza - 13" Deluxe - Pizza Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

This is like walking into a 1970s era pizza parlor and it is perfection! The pizza is thin and crispy, not the best ever- but that's not why you're there. The enormous dining room can fit any size party and is always pretty busy. The service is fast and friendly. Long live Marion's - a Dayton institution! read more

Oh No you have changed the crust and it's not good. Yuk I can't finish it. Please go back to original! read more

I stopped in for lunch today with some coworkers and the pizza and atmosphere was great. I opted for a 9" (small) pizza with pepperoni and black olives and it so delicious I ate the whole thing. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back. read more

Knew the crowd would be huge but 4 hours just to place an order...then another wait to get it? Eight dollars is a great idea but it's out of control. Think maybe there is a better way...instead of a mob in in 90 degree weather read more

This is the third time I've eaten here. Their pizza is amazing service is excellent, the setting is just an old style pizza joint, which I enjoy. You don't want to miss this pizza if you're in the Bevercreek , Oh area read more

This place is a pizza institution. My palate is biased as I've been enjoying it for 4 decades. Ask for it well done and never forget the sausage, ham, a steak sub and a deluxe dinner salad. The best. read more

Ordered a large deluxe. See photo below. For over $22 they maybe used 1/16 of a bell pepper and 1/16 of an onion. Ordered salads with cheese. No cheese. Drove 30 mins to pickup and when I got home, this is what I had. Customer service is terrible when I called back. They told me to call their main office for a refund. I'll never order from their establishment ever again. read more

Marion's Piazza - A "DELUXE" pizza - Pizza Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

I have eaten Marion's Piazza since I was young child. I lived two blocks from the Dixie Road Restaurant until my family moved to Florida. Every time I visit Dayton to see family, I go to Marion's Piazza. It's an institution, I must eat a Marion's Supreme Piazza. There's nothing like it. Thin and crispy, most of all delicious. read more

Marion's Piazza - Celebrities and history throughout the restaurant dining area. - Pizza Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

I love getting this pizza when we are in Dayton. It's always a super quick turn around from ordering to pickup, regardless of how busy it is. The Supreme pizza is the one to go for. Personally, I opt for no black olives and think it's much better. The star of the topping is the shredded sausage that they put on. Its melt in your mouth crumbly. They slice this pizza into squares and it makes the undesirable middle pieces perfect little bites. read more

My family loves coming here! Our pizza is always great and service is nice too. Wonderful restaurant!

Haven't lived in Ohio for over 40 years but every time I go back a Marion's deluxe is on the menu. My sister was up the weekend of July 1st so I had her bring back several half baked pizzas. My complaint isn't about the pizzas but about the attitude of the hateful manager. There were several half baked pizzas sitting out waiting to be picked up, she went over to see if they were what she ordered and the manager was an absolute jerk and started yelling at her that they weren't hers and to leave them alone. What an unfriendly hateful jerk! The manager needs additional training in customer service and how to treat customers. read more

The unique thing about Marion's is the sausage. Ever had a Totino's Party pizza? The sausage on those things is a finely crumbled, almost hamburger-like texture. Well, Marion's has a nicer version of that same sort of thing. I emphasize nicer, because this is much better than a $2 frozen pizza. What I just wrote is either going to intrigue or repulse you. I very much liked it, and encourage you to keep and open mind. read more

Marion's Piazza - Sausage Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

Large with lots of tables. Appears to be kept clean. Pizza in interesting how they cut into such small pieces. Lots of Toppings fall off because of it. Don't like the canned mushrooms. Pretty bland to me probably because of their sauce. Grandson got Spaghetti & meatballs. That was pretty awful. No spices, so bland. The meatballs were the worst I've ever tasted. 7 year old didn't even like it. My BF is from the area and loves the pizza. Too blah for this Chicago girl. read more

Not sure why I thought they would get my order right this time. I ordered an Italian sub with extra sauce. When I picked up the order I asked the guy who checked me out if it had extra sauce and his reply was it should but I don't know if they put it in it not. Needless to say they put less sauce on than usual. if you can get a simple request correct I give up. read more

I haven't been here in about 12 years. I didn't remember how the ordering went with drinks and food. My husband and I walked over to the drink counter first and told the guy working that counter, we wanted to place an order. His response was so rude and arrogant with him telling us we order food "over there" and drinks with him. He went to turn around expecting us to go to the food counter first. We need food and drink. So I told him we would go ahead and order drinks first. He was so annoyed and initially made my memory of this place a bad one. We then ordered the pizza. When it came out and ate it, it was just as I remembered. The young man working that counter was FAR more friendly too! If you want good pizza and don't care about the rude, bothered drink man, then come here. read more

I went to Marion's Piazza after being recommended for notable pizza places in the Dayton/Beavercreek area. The location was very large with much seating. You can see the pizzas laid out and made to order quickly with fresh ingredients. I got the supreme pizza. I liked the concept of the smaller pieces and thin crust. The toppings were fresh. I wasn't too big of the sausage but I kept eating as I did enjoy. It looks like a staple in the area. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while now! And yesterday, it finally happened! When I was living in St. Louis, I became addicted to St. Louis style super thin crust pizza. I was told, this would be the place to come and find something similar. I gave them a call and placed an order about an hour in advance. Two 13 inch pizzas. One with pepperoni and mushrooms and the other with pepperoni, sausage and bacon. My order was ready when I arrived and everything was just as we asked. Let me tell you, they really load the pizza with toppings! The triple meat pizza was definitely my favorite! I could eat that all day every day! The sausage had great flavor! It had a spice that seemed a little different than what I normally expect, but it was wonderful! Just a heads up that they cut the pizzas with super tiny Square and rectangle slices. I personally think this is perfect considering I have kids who don't really need a very big piece. Also, it made me feel less guilty as I went back for more and more! LOL. The only "problem" was that the sausage on the three meat pizza very easily crumbled and fell off as we picked it up. The sausage comes in teeny tiny pieces and since it wasn't the bottom ingredient, it didn't have cheese to adhere to. If that makes any sense.... read more

After a day full of running errands, the wife and I decided to grab some carryout pizza. Long on our radar, we finally decided to try one of Dayton's "signature" food items, the Marion's Deluxe ($18) from Marion's Piazza. First off, this wasn't a misspelling. It was spelled "p-i-a-z-z-a", which was pretty accurate since it wasn't really "pizza". Our pizza consisted of a saltine cracker like crust topped with a generic tomato sauce, scant amount of mozzarella, and a generous amount of ground Italian sausage, pepperoni, canned (not fresh) mushrooms, and canned (not fresh) diced green peppers. The Italian sausage was bland and lacked any notes of Italian herbs and spices. Curiously, the pizza was also cut into bite-size squares not wedges. Frankly, for the price and for a pizza not out of the grocery freezer section, it was probably the saddest pie I've had in a very, very long. What was most telling was that we had lots of uneaten pizza but neither the wife nor I felt the need to save the leftovers. Not all was bad, though. Our pizza was hot and ready when I picked it up and service was fast and friendly. Unfortunately, the most important aspect of a pizza restaurant, the pizza, was lackluster and not a good value. In the end, I'll leave Marion's Piazza for Dayton-area natives. It wasn't my cup of tea. read more

Just a disgusting pizza joint. Everyone around town raves about how good it is, but I DO NOT see the hype. It's disgusting inside. Sticky tables, broken chairs, dust filled carpet, no order, kids running around, broken ceiling fans... you name it. It's so incredibly crowded in there, with no set way to walk or stand, just very chaotic. Not to mention some of the people in there... definitely a low class establishment. read more

Marion's has the best pizza in the world. I'm an international business consultant and have been to over 100 countries and speak 6 languages. No matter what language you say it in, there is no place in the world that makes pizza like Marion's. I've read the reviews and the guy from Nevada has no taste. To the other guy, the pizzas are round and I love the square shaped bite sized pieces. Anyone who would complain about Marion's obviously has never traveled the world, because in any country you go to, none can stack up to Marion's. Every chance I get, I go there and always bring 3 or 4 back with me. read more

Love all locations. Probably my favorite in Dayton now. Dining in clean fast friendly staf, take out orders have only had one problem in 30 years. Strongly recommend. Bring out of town friends. They will love it. Remember it's family dining so expect loudness and laughter of kids read more

I have been a fan of Marion's since I can first recall enjoying it over 40 years ago. I do not recall ever being disappointed. There have been subtle taste differences through the years, likely caused when vendors have had to be changed for various ingredients, but the quality has been consistent. Today, my wife and I stopped in for lunch. The restaurant was clean and our order was taken promptly. Our salads and drinks were handed to us by the time we cashed out. Our pizzas were cooked to perfection by the time we finished our salads. I am unsure what more we could have asked for to make this trip better. read more

I'm a little partial because I used to live in Ohio and now have cravings probably because I can't have Marion's when I want. But this place, it's just unique, and that's not easy in the pizza business. Its mom and pop, family, and they use local businesses for their ingredients. Customer service has always been good, prices are fair, and the pizzas always consistent. Something you have to go try once in your life! Btw they have won best non chain pizza for more than a couple years, and that award is nationwide. read more

Service here was horrible. The lady with the braids today was horrifying. The manager Mike is a liar. The poor untrained cashier was pleasant but mis- charged for an overpriced can of soda and we got some to go - and we're charge as a bottle of root beer. Not what we got. When I questioned it the braided gal lost her cool and demanded that Mike deal with us. He then lied and said he was the one to ring our original order - complete falsehood. The little cashier said she thought she miss charged us originally. Fair enough - but the manager and his ridiculous helper didn't need to be rude and condescending to paying customers. Heaven forbid you actually question non recognizable charges. Do not recommend - read more

I am a fan and have been for decades. However, I would not recommend this store to friends for a while. The quality is suffering. The pizzas were burned black on bottom and sides. Didnt find that out until I got it home. Toppings were under the cheese not on top. Also only about half of the normal amount of toppings. Won't go back for a while, maybe go to one of the other sites. read more

I ordered a small deluxe pizza and a large pepperoni crispy in the old oven brown on the bottom not burnt. They did just as I asked. Service was excellent also. I recommend this Marion's on North Dixie Drive! read more

100% recommend trying the meat pizza!! They absolutely load it up with toppings and I loved the thin crust that they cut into small pieces. We went with a group on a Saturday evening and they were very busy. Had to wait over 30 minutes for the pizza, but it was worth it! They make you get beer and other drinks in a separate line which you may stand in for another 5-10 minutes so that is a bit inconvenient. The building is large and it reminded me of how pizza places in major cities operate. Things are very fast pace and it is a noisy environment. They have their own parking spaces, but the spaces get limited when they are busy. Definitely come here to try some good pizza!!! read more

Marion's Piazza - Meat pizza and pepperoni pizza were AMAZING!! - Pizza Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

Pizza is WAY BETTER than the national chain pizza places like Pizza Hut, Dominos, or Rapid Fire. It doesn't hold candle to high-end wood fired pizzas. The dine-in experience is great. Its a perfect place to bring a family or to meet up with friends. I will definitely be returning but I wouldn't travel out of town to get here. read more

This might have been the worst food I've had in a while. We ordered pasta, garlic bread and a salad. The garlic bread was soaked in oil and there was so little garlic. You would think that pasta would be easy to make right, no it was undercooked and the meatballs were terrible. Ooooh finally a salad, hopefully this will satisfy me, nope the dressing was awful and the salad was cheap. All this is bad on it's own but that's not the end, alongside the food being awful, the service was terrible too. We simply asked for some dressing and the cook threw them on the tray without saying a word. We proceed to say "have a good day" and get nothing back. I'm now addressing the entire world, never come here. read more

I called to order a pizza a half hour before closing and was told it would be 15 minutes. I showed up there 15 minutes later; the pizza was cold as can be. when I called to complain the first time, the manager told me that he personally pulled it out of the oven, which may be true; if so, at least an hour earlier. I called back a second time to complain that while he may have pulled it out of the oven it was cold. When I called the second time, he explained that they don't pre-make pizzas. now while that may be true, and that he pulled the pizza out of the oven and they don't make premade pizza; the pizza I got was cold as room temperature when I picked it up almost exactly 15 minutes after I ordered it. Unless the oven was not on, or the pizza spent little to no time in an oven cooking, mine was cooked much earlier and had cooled. I find it incredibly disingenuous that he would tell me I was in the wrong. read more

Still lots of seating available. Orders were taken quick and efficient. Our pizza came very quickly. It was a lot faster than we expected. None of the pizzas disappointed. Love Marion's pizza!! read more

It looks like a lovely sit-down restaurant but you self-order food at one counter and drinks at another counter. I could do better with a generic brand Saltine and can of cheap olives. Or dollar store frozen pizza. This is pretty disgusting pizza with scant cheese, canned veggies, and poor quality meat, on bland cracker crust, little to no sauce, served on a piece of cardboard. Surly counter help and high prices for basically garbage. No refills on drinks. Super disappointed. read more

The ratings on Marion's blows my mind. People in Dayton just don't appreciate what they have. Marion's is amazing pizza, so amazing that every time I'm in the area visiting my family it's a requirement to go get a large Super Cheese at Marion's. I've ate at Marion's my whole life. It's the place to have birthday parties, graduation parties, family lunches and dinners. With that being said you may think this is just based on nostalgia, but it isn't. I consider myself to be a pizza snob. I love it, I could eat it every day if I wasn't afraid of my heart stopping. Marion's is in my top ten pizza list of the best pizza ever. Outside of the pizza, they have a great beer selection in their take out fridges and even have a small assortment of beer on tap. They also now have Warped Wing on tap which is cool. They have a backroom with Arcade games that is convenient when you have younger kids in your family, or that are yours. After they finish eating you just hand them some quarters and point them in the direction of the major distraction. The cons of Marion's is that they are notoriously cheap, in the way that they make you ask for plates and napkins. You have to pay for refills. The pizza is on the pricey side. They just now started taking cards instead of just cash. Yes, it's frustrating but it's worth it for the pizza. Try the Super Cheese, it will change your life. read more

Marion's has been a long standing tradition for my family get togethers. I especially grew to appreciate it during the years I didn't live in Ohio and getting a pizza from here on my handful of visits a year was a real treat. I normally prefer deep dish or pan pizza, but when it comes to thin crust, Marion's tops the charts in my book. From plain cheese to deluxe loaded down with toppings, I've never had a bad experience here. Simply put, Marion's is delicious! read more
