This had to be the worst chinese buffet we've ever been to. The food was nasty,had to have been sitting out for hours, tasted bad, very unclean. We felt like all we had to look forward to was the fresh air when we were going to leave. Not a good dining experience. You'd think they could at least rem...
Dry food with a dull atmosphere.
I ordered the very entree' that the restaurant should have perfect by now...the BBQ pork chop dinner. It took entirely too long to be served and when they arrived they were burnt, dry, and hard to cut. I showed the waitress who shouldn't have served them to begin with, and she took them back. It was...
We, as a party of 4 were greeted at our table 1 cold dinner roll, crackers and applesauce straight from the can (not even cinnamon). We ordered their "misleading" Texas BBQ sandwich, which was also BBQ from a can or container (like you get at the store). The atmoshphere was interesting with old anit...
This is a nice diner, but this is not a BBQ restaurant unfortunaly! Simply baking or heating meat then putting BBQ sauce on food is a far cry from real BBQ. Being from Kansas city I would like nothing more than for this place to be a great place to find good BBQ in Dayton now that I live here. Witho...

We get delivery from here frequently. Always quick and the pizza is delicious!! Whenever I have out of town guests, they comment that it is better than anything at home.

While traveling through Dayton, our Hotel recommended Jays. We should have went to Red Lobster like we planned.... Dinner bill was $62.00, after they reduced the bill a whopping $2.00 to addres our concerns about the quality of our meal. Simply put, every single item served to us was just not fresh....

How can you go wrong with this place? The BBQ chicken is outstanding and I've heard that the ribs are great as well. Not only that, but you get a lot of food for your money.

I was raised in Dayton and come back ther about 4 times a year for various reasons. These trips always include ribs from old hickory. To me, they are the best after sampling many others. I only eat ribs from Hickory now.

My work has planned an outing to this restaurant, I have read some incredible reviews about this restaurant, especially considering how easily narcissistic our society is. What I haven't heard is anything about healthy options. I am on weight watchers, and I have no idea what I am going to do. I...

I used to eat at the Golden Nugget when I was a kid and I wanted to take my daughter there for her birthday breakfast. We have a party of 9 meeting, and I called to see what time they open on Saturday morning (I couldn't find a website with this information). The lady who answered the phone, EVENT...

The Oakwood Club was good many years ago. I don't know if they have a new owner or chef, but the Frecnh onion soup was tasteless and the cheese was not fully melted and crusty like it use to be. Also, my wife found a hair in her vegtables and the waitress acted like it was no big deal! She didn't...

nice place. reminded me of the italian restaurants in NY. The service was attentive but not hovering. The appetizer was really good (fried raviolis). The sauce was unique. it tasted homemade. The bread was soft warm & tasty. I had to stop myself from filling up on the bread alone. I had Gnoochi with...
