    Prosecco

    So the two stars are definitely only because the server Ethan was very nice. However, this is the worst Italian American restaurant I've ever been to. The only thing they have going is the ambience and the decor. I always get the same dish when I go to an Italian/anerican spot, the cacio de Pepe. This one came with the largest mushrooms I ever had it lacked pepper, and the chicken that came with it for the up charges laste like it was premade and pre-breaded. I will never go here again. I do not recommend, and the reviews at best were three stars I should've known better. But I wanted to love this place. They have to do better.

    Caesar salad, house salad, tasty spiritless espresso martini, (half eaten) delicious meatball appetizer

    Wife and I went for their V Day special which cost $95 per person (plus tip, drinks, and parking). So for a dinner that is guaranteed to be over $100 per person, it was a let down. Started with an $18 chocolate old fashioned that had to be sent back because there was no detectable chocolate flavor, and an espresso martini that had a hair in it. Meatball appetizer was great. Salads were mid. Lobster risotto was one-note. Grouper was over-cooked and similarly underwhelming. Finally the dessert (unfortunately not pictured) was basically a cup of passion fruit soup with a single raspberry. Finally, although the restaurant has a cool vibe, we were sat in the back area sandwiched closely to other couples...who were all whispering to each other about the food-price mismatch.

    We came here for dinner and it was nice. The chicken Milanese was very generously portioned, and the woodfired mushrooms as a side were absolutely delectable. The tiramisu cheesecake and artichokes were good. The server topped off our drinks multiple times and was very kind.

    Calamari- was fantastic!

    The location is beautiful. It is in a newly renovated Hilton in downtown Dayton. The bartender was fabulous, she was friendly, fast and the drinks were made well. We had a large group and reservations. The server at our table, Jonah, was great and very attentive. Some of the other tables from our group felt the service was lacking but Jonah took good care of our table. Our food was hot and orders came out timely. The menu did not have any vegan options. There were a few vegetarian options but the offerings could benefit from a few plant based options.

    After reading a few other reviews, I was hoping for a better experience at Bistecca. The drinks are fantastic, and we enjoyed the grilled artichoke hearts, the lemon you could squeeze on top made the dish The Burrata I've had so much better the Burrata seemed like an afterthought as they piled too many tomatoes & raw onions & not enough bread to soak up the cheese. Once we finally received our main dishes, risotto and cacio e Pepe was so dry & had no flavor. Also the wood fired smell was overpowering throughout the restaurant. Our waitress did her best as it was a busy night due to event next door. Next time will just have a drink & head somewhere else for Italian.

    Arancini & burrata
    Mari B.

    Arancini felt like cold use a bit more salt and something about the crunch kept me wondering. The burrata was good and the steak was cooked perfectly and delicious. Gnocchi was on point. Definitely a good choice... food was good . Atmosphere was nice .

    Pride cake pop, layers of rainbow cake covered in white chocolate! Yummy! Thanks for making us feel so welcome!

    Small expensive portions that are just 'ok'. It' is pretty inside and the servers were nice.

    Excellent and highly recommend. We are here from California for work and are always looking for…read moregreat food options when we are here since we are here once a year. Service - excellent Ambiance- excellent Food - soooooo good! Excellent We will be back!

    Reservation via their website and Open Table was not functioning so good thing we called the day…read morebefore to double check. FIX THAT ISSUE. Reservation for 6:30 and all 6 of us were there prior and still didn't get seated until 7:00. Table of 4 were given to 2 people and table of 2 were given a seat before we were. How about pushing the 4 top and 2 top together to make 6 instead of sitting all 6 of us at an 8 top? FIX THAT ISSUE. Their policy is $50 fee if a cancellation and call if 10 minutes late? Limit your dining experience to 1.5 hours? How about sticking to your own policy. What do customers get if they're seated 30 minutes after their reservation time? FIX THAT ISSUE. Pass out complimentary wine and bread to those that are waiting 15 minutes after their reservation, let alone 30 minutes. They were probably starving all day long waiting for a good meal. BE CUSTOMER-FOCUSED. Automatic 20% gratuity on a party of 6? Party of 6? When there are 3 checks? Welp, their tip is included. FIX THAT ISSUE. Mussels alone can not be an appetizer or entree, but only incorporated as the daily special? Bullshit. If you have mussels you can serve it alone without pasta. FIX THAT ISSUE. Did the host or anybody go to any of the tables asking how the food is tonight? NOPE. FIX THAT ISSUE. DO BETTER.
