4 of us flew into Dayton to surprise my brother on his birthday. I reserved this restaurant. DELICIOUS! The chicken was yummy. Great cocktails ( didn't love the saline water ones....too salty), but EVERYTHING was on point. The manager helped us completely surprise him. Highly recommend! All the vegetable plates were the highlight!

So I might be biased since I’ve known these guys for years (but lost touch before the restaurant opened). I found out yesterday they were here and had to come! Food was Ah-Mazin’, though I’m not surprised as both chefs spent years perfecting their craft. Oh I had the Koji-burger (hands’ down the best burger I’ve ever had), and I’m coming back for the Ribeye and Brussels Sprouts! You don’t want to miss out on the experience of food, mood and friendliness. I’m so glad I found you guys again!!

We were impressed! Fun to watch the chefs cook and we were in and out in an hour, the service was so quick and we ate fast because it was that good. Recommend the chicory salad, Korean fried chicken, and the lamb burger!

This place was great! The ribeye, trout, and fried chicken were excellent. They don’t have a designated parking area so be on the lookout for street parking. I wish they had a larger selection of cocktails but they may change these weekly with the menu, I am not sure. The cocktails are 15 a piece. I will definitely return but I will have to break my piggy bank to do so. 3 drinks, a salad, an appetizer, 3 entrees, and a dessert was 160 without tip. Obviously, it depends on what you get but it is definitely a good restaurant for a special occasion. I like how Tony and Pete’s and Two Social are next door as well.

This restaurant is amazing!! The food was so delicious and our waitress was great. We sat at the kitchen bar — Jacob was the chef next to the bar and he was absolutely delightful! He provided great hospitality and made us feel so welcome. Crystal was also so sweet and provided complimentary champagne for our anniversary. I’m new to this city and I had a wonderful time here. Definitely will be back!!!!

Such a gem in the heart of downtown. This spot strikes the perfect balance—intimate and upscale, yet totally welcoming. I had the classic koji paired with a crisp Japanese beer, thanks to a great recommendation from the helpful staff. They really know their menu and make you feel at home. Whether you're here for a business lunch or catching up with friends, this place delivers on vibe, flavor, and hospitality.

Jollity is the place to be! The food is absolutely delicious and so beautifully presented—it’s next level. The drinks are just as amazing, and the atmosphere is spot-on. You can feel the passion the owners put into everything, from the menu to the vibe, and it shows. The staff is fantastic too—friendly, attentive, and they really make the experience special. Good food, good mood is right! This is one spot you don’t want to miss—you’ll leave happy every time!

Great food and unexpectedly good cocktails. I thought the “Supernova” might be too sweet or one ingredient would overwhelm the others but it was very balanced. “Bad Dog, No Biscuit,” and “Conceited” were also great cocktails. Food-wise, it would be a mistake to miss out on the brussel sprouts or the pork.
