Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, Greenbean casserole
Ron P.

It has been a couple years since I have been here due to a poor experience... Today was PERFECT ! I was very impressed with the Food, staff, and atmosphere.... Now I cannot wait to come back !

Wonderful Dinner
Kristi M.

Tonight, we decided to go to MCL. Let me start off by saying, I have loved this restaurant/cafeteria since I was a little girl. While, yes, there've been times it has not been good, lately both the food and service has been great! It reminds me of the times I used to ask my parents if we could go as a child. The food is almost like homemade food and it's super good! I honestly have nothing to complain about. It's that great.

Chicken Cordon, green beans, Mac n cheese, stuffing which I had eaten.

It's enjoyable and tasty. Not the best cafeteria in the world but good enough. Good selection for my taste.

An unexpected gem in the gem city! I always check Yelp when traveling and look for a mom & pop spot…read morefor dining rather than a chain. Little did we know upon entering, we hit the jackpot when choosing Slyder's beyond the high ratings they've received. For a Thursday night this little place was crazy busy!! It's comfortable inside with a back room for overflow. We soon found out why it was so a buzz. Great food, great service and Joe, who's probably the most personable and sincere owner I've ever come across, who shared some great stories. The icing on the cake was finding out he briefly lived near us in central NC. It really is a small world! I had a delicious reuben sandwich with perfectly grilled bread. My spouse had been craving a BLT and this one hit the mark. A generous order of fries rounded it all out. Good food aside, Joe was the highlight. He was happy to share some info about sites to see in Dayton, for future reference, a city he clearly loves. When we were leaving we looked for him to thank him and say goodbye, but didn't see him. To our surprise he suddenly appeared out the front door to chat with us a bit further. This was a first. To feel so welcomed by an owner, esp given how busy they were. It really made an impression on us. The next time we're in town stopping here is an absolute must! Many thanks, Joe, for your hospitality!

A neighborhood bar that did the best patty melt that I had in years!…read more Great beefy flavor. Cheese had greats pull. Plenty of carmelized onions. Not fancy. Dim inside. Great service sitting at the counter. Will I return? Yes, whenever I am visiting Dayton.

Tonight visited TJ Chumps catching up with friends. You seat yourself, we were greeted right away,…read moregiven menus & our waitress took drink orders. They have a great selection of food on the menu, so was just right for our group. I enjoyed the buffalo chicken wrap with blue cheese dressing and loaded mashed potatoes, others in our group enjoyed wings, soup & salad, salmon sandwich and chicken quesadillas. Our food was served hot from the oven & was so good. Great service, and our waitress filled our soda, tea & water several times. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back.

I came here again with my girlfriend the day before Thanksgiving 2023. Having previously ordered…read morehere on DoorDash, I wanted to see what in-house dining was like. The restaurant is located in a strip mall area off of Stroop road. It's near the Vapor Haus vape shop and the Speedway gas station that sits at the corner of Stroop and Marshall Rd. If you pass that Speedway, you've gone too far. Inside, the restaurant has a typical sports bar vibe. It's well lit, clean but nothing spectacular. The menu does offer a variety of choices. Service is really good. We were seated fast and orders were taken shortly afterwards. I got the fish and chips. The deep fried fish was good but average in my opinion. The fries were tasty. It satisfied my hunger but it was just average to me. My girlfriend got the chili bowl with jalapeño cornbread. She liked it but again felt it was average fare. The portions are pretty big but bigger doesn't necessarily mean it's better. I will probably try again but I think the burgers are a better option than the fish and chips. There was a decent sized crowd here, so TJ Chumps is doing something right. I'd like to try some of their other menu choices. I recommend. The service is good and the wait crew enthusiastic.

I recently placed a DoorDash order at Doubleday's Home Plate…read more Doubleday's Home Plate offers a variety of food options. I elected to get the Ooey Gooey Smashburger and an order of fries. The smashburger consists of two smash hamburger patties topped with American cheese with cheese sauce between the patties. I added pickles on my sandwich. The burger was cooked well, in the typical smashburger style, and was very cheesy and delicious. The fries were good. The order came in a plastic container. Not quite eco-friendly but it kept the food warm and fresh. I highly recommend this establishment. My order was filled quickly and my DoorDasher delivered the order quickly. I like having different dining options and this is one place I do intend on visiting again.

I want to say that when this place opened that it was a good go to for food. The burgers and fish…read morewere great. Well, like everything these days, a good concept was ruined. Now, they are basically based at The Famous restaurant which too has gone down hill in quality of food. I had made an order last night after long day of work (work a hour away), and the order was wrong and high priced for the portions. The fish was not a good portion like it was previous and did not even give me tartar sauce with fish. I was not aware of change of location to Famous Restaurant until I made the order and had to drive out of my way after long day at work. Management had refunded me money which was appreciated, but I would say that maybe they should just add this menu to The Famous Menu or to the Doubleday locations and close the doors and concept of this restaurant.

The bartender was absolutely outstanding with a good pour and a good sense of humor. The place has a warm feel for it and I'll tell you what if it's nice out the outside bar is the place to be! 4.5/5 if it would let me!

Senior Center in Centerville…read more NOT a date night with your wife Food from the 1950's, impossible service, LOUD Seemed an ok setting for our Tennis Club members, but Not for the dining. We were advised that the ladies at our reserved table for 10 would require a few more minutes.... These ladies were well into a drinking session, and were screaming. Our reservation was for 6:00, and these ladies were still screaming a 8:00. Fortunately, there was another table for 10 nearby. Upon entering, I asked the hostess if Fresh Fish were on the menu; she asked what is Fresh Fish???? I explained, and her reply was to ask the server. Same scenario with server..... Turns out all fish is from a freezer, and I cannot recommend. Lots of folks - a Thursday night full house. Very pleased Not to have my wife suffer through this experience. After tracking down a server, and convincing her to take orders, the meal arrived. Server disappeared for nearly one and one-half hours. Geez is Not in our approved list of acceptable dining.... There are MUCH better dining options nearby....

I am obsessed with this local coffee shop! Everytime I come to Dayton, I take the opportunity to…read morework from here at least one day! The decor has changed since the last time I visited (more moody & cozy color scheme) but it still is and always has been a vibe!!! On my most recent visit I got an iced vanilla matcha with oat milk and an avocado "toast". The matcha was well blended and balanced between the matcha and vanilla flavor. My toast came out as a croissant piled high with fresh avocado, pickled onions, blistered tomatoes, micro greens and everything seasoning! So filling and delicious! I originally sat at a high top table in the front so I could eat and work easier at the same time but eventually moved to the low table conversation area in the back when I needed an outlet (the tall tables in the front by outlets were all taken). I also noticed that on wednesdays-sundays the shop is open until11p and that there are daily happy hour specials from 4-6p with drink and dip specials! Would love to come back one day to check this out! Definitely check out MidDay if you are in the area looking for somewhere to relax, catch up with a friend, work (be mindful of finding an outlet), or go on a date.... And yes I saw people doing all of these during the hours I was there!
