Y! MyWebHave you discovered Dayton's hidden-gem restaurants? We have
Comment: Do you know of any "hidden gem" restaurants that deserve to be a bit less hidden. Nominate your favorites
Wednesday, April 09, 2008
The big-name, high-profile restaurants around town — you already know about them. You've dined at them, seen the ads, talked about them with friends. Then there are those other eateries in out-of-the-way places or sometimes simply tucked into the back of your mind. They keep a low profile, work hard to serve up excellence on a plate and often succeed in attracting a loyal clientèle — usually without an advertising budget.
Extras
A crowd of trivia expert gather at the Oregon Express on a Tuesday night.

Treasure Island’s main attraction for me is the old-fashioned overbuilt salads.

We love Troni’s, a small Italian restaurant in a small strip mall near the intersection of Wilmington/Dorothy Lane in Kettering. The prices are very reasonable and the food is great. The garlic rolls are something you don’t get at other places and the dough they use for their Stromboli’s is wonderful.
