The best pizza in Dayton. Start with their famous eggplant fries and order a Taylor Street pizza (sausage , spinach , shrooms ). Ohio's Vander Mill hard cider was excellent drink choice too.

LOVE this place but if you order a cocktail that's not on the house list, ASK THE PRICE. Just got a Sidecar that was $16.09, nearly pissed myself...

Meatballs for an appetizer , ok but, 3 small ones for$8(not worth it). Had the porchetta , it was really good. Worst service I've ever had. We sat outside and rarely saw our waiter .I won't be back.
