Roost Modern Italian 524 East 5th Street, Dayton, OH 45402

"Amazing all around. We went for dinner with a reservation. We were seated promptly, our server was very attentive and the food was amazing."

"Very nice place for a fine dining experience. The service was top notch with very friendly and attentive staff. They even cleaned the table itself a bit between courses. The garlic bread was great! Definitely worth ordering as an appetizer and fun to eat. And the caesar salad was delightful. The main courses (filet and chicken) were good but very simple and needed salt & pepper. I would have liked the food to have more unique flavors. It was good, high-quality food but I felt like it could have stood out more. Nothing that made me feel like I could only get it at Roost. Fairly pricy if get appetizers and drinks along with dinner, but good for a rare night out. The signature cocktails were good and definitely unique in a good way."

"Service was excellent I enjoyed the warm mushroom salad a lot We also tried the artichoke as an appetizer which was interesting . For main courses we got the pork chop - the polenta under the chop was fantastic ! Spicy and delicious. We also got the special - the sole - it was just ok, the capers overpowered the rest of the dish , the sole was cooked nicely. Dessert was the affogato which was really good , and the bomba . I would come back and try some other things in future ."

"Chet really showed us an amazing level of service. The food wa outstanding, subtle and delicious flavors on every dish. Unique and timeless tastes I won’t soon forget. We started with the artichokes, stuffed pepper special and bread with garlic con fit. Everything was on point. My cocktail of choice was the Old fashioned and only got better and better until it was gone. To culminate the experience I went for the scallops with truffle cream sauce. Phenomenal. The night was finished off with delectable limoncello , simply amazing. Don’t miss out on this extraordinary experience, ask for Chet."
