Best Southern American Restaurants in Dayton

The food was delicious. Loved the coleslaw and fries. The fried chicken could have been crispier but it was moist and tasty. I get that it's New Year's Day and they were short staffed. We were patient and polite with the staff but I'd never return on a holiday. It was not a welcoming "we're glad you're here" kind of day.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant--my sister and I brought my dad here for his birthday dinner. We sat upstairs right next to a window overlooking the street. The food was delicious, reasonably-priced, and service was great!

Had a party of 7 that was seated upstairs in the middle room. Service was slow at the start due to 3 other tables in the next room getting their food as we were seated. We hadn’t even ordered apps 30 minutes after our reservation. But once those tables were served, we were able to order and the service picked up. Stars of the show were the mussels, flat bread, tomato dill soup, filet with king crab, scallops, short ribs and the bread pudding. I would pass on the Cajun Cream pasta.

Louvino Restaurant provides an exceptional dining experience with its excellent food, attentive service, and curated wine selection. The Fried chicken tacos: Exceptional flavors and textures. The Risotto with shrimp and scallops: Creamy and indulgent, with perfectly cooked seafood and the Fried green tomatoes: Crispy and tangy, a delightful starter. The consistent quality of the dishes ensures a memorable meal every time. The restaurant stands out as a reliable destination in the ever-evolving culinary landscape.

My mom and I tried Nolia Kitchen for the first time and were very pleased with everything! Our server was amazing and the food was insanely delicious. Each item prepared with love. You can tell they are very prideful in what they offer and serve. Such a cute and quaint space. I loved the exposed kitchen as well. Highly recommend!
