The pizza was very, very good. Hand tossed good toppings. Very good sauce too. The atmosphere is modern and very comfortable. The real win here is the staff. Moving with a purpose, gear attitude, smiles, teamwork. With a staff like this you can change the world. Exceptional!! read more

The service was great!! I love how you don't have one specific server everyone helps out and I think that beautiful! Though I was not impressed with the pizza. It was pretty average and was a bit burnt on the bottom, I got the Hawaiian. I also got the Blueberry Almond salad which was tasty. I wanted to rate this place higher just off the service alone but for this to be a pizza place and its just OK I had to bring it down a bit. read more

Such a good sit down place. Perfect for something casual. Food is always good, and employees are friendly as well.

Let me tell you that if you love garlic. I mean like if garlic was the marrying type...this place is for you! I love garlic, don't get me wrong. But I like garlic that disappears by morning like a bad onenight stand. I was so parched (considering our server never came but once and no refills offered)...We walked out of there looking for a gallon bucket of water for the ride home. The taste of the pizza was ok. Not great, not hideous...but one experience was all we needed. Never went back and won't. If you want garlic on your breath, tongue, and a taste bud takeover for days (no matter how many times you brushed your teeth) by all means eat their pizza. Guaranteed you will have zero vampire issues. read more

Dewey's is some of the best pizza I've had and I've been around the block when it comes to pizza eating. My out of town friends/family are also huge fans. Their take out during COVID was unfortunately cool when I picked it up which is a downside. Overall highly recommend. read more

Delicious salads and pizza! This place is such a treat, a little pricey but worth it.

What's better than a Dewey's house salad with the world's best balsamic vinaigrette (bottle that stuff Andrew) and a Socrates Revenge pizza? Having it served by one of the best staffs in food service. Not in just Dayton, but anywhere. No kidding. They are that good. Every time. read more

Still the best pizza around. We love their salads. And the pizza crust is so good. I usually get the Edgar Allen Poe but all of the pizzas are so good. read more

Good Pizza , great service! Probably the lightest crust I have ever had on pizza, and I have had a lot :). Only had the red sauce and want to try the white next time. read more

This place is just awesome! The food is exquisite and of highest quality I don't know of anywhere in Dayton, especially in the college community, that serves an elite type of salad greens. So fresh and nutritious. The pizzas are truly a gourmet delight. The staff has always been very friendly and thorough! We have a high end gem in the Gem City. Plus "Go Flyers"! read more

I finally stopped in to check this place out after hearing my co-workers rave about it for a year. This place didn't disapoint. The pizza was fantastic. So many choices to choose from. They even do half and half of whatever pizza you want. The crust is amazing and toppings are fresh. I don't eat dairy so my pizza was sans cheese yet still amazing. I loved this place so much I came back again for a salad a couple days later. I ordered the large portion for lunch. The dressing was homemade and again the salad was amazing. They have a nice craft beer selection as well as non alcolohic beverages. The service was prompt and friendly. My only con for this place was waiting so long to come and check this place out. This will be a regular visit when I am in town for work again. Great place. read more

I got the porky fig which I enjoyed the Jam but did not like the Gorgonzola cheese. I actually liked the green lantern better. The red sauce with pesto is an interesting combo but not a fan of mushrooms read more

After hearing so many good things about Deweys, I was excited to try their pizza. We ordered a half bacon and feta and don corleone. It was larger than expected. There was too much meat and the meat was oily and not caramelized. There was too much sauce on the pizza. I'm not sure if they had an off day but this pizza was just not good and did not live up to the hype. I doubt I will go back. Would rather go to pizza factory or old scratch. read more

EXCELLENT customer service. The friendliest staff I've ever seen! From the hostess, to all the waiters/waitresses, and the manager, all across friendly and attentive! I love that they are able to do half and half with speciality pizzas! We had half Bronx bomber and half Ryan's Inferno, and loved both! They have excellent crust as well. We did not have to wait long at all for our pizza. Several workers came over to our table to top off our water, and take our plates away. They even box your pizza for you, and offered to-go drinks. My only complaint was that the Bronx Bomber had a large amount of green peppers on it, which did not settle well with my stomach. Other than this, we loved it and will be back! Thank you Dewey's staff!! read more

If someone would like to do a case study on amazing customer service, they should come here to Dewey's Pizza. I ordered an 11 inch pizza, half bbq chicken and half porky fig. About 10-15 min after ordering they brought out my pizza and right away and the waiter apologized saying the cook forgot the cheese crumbles on my pizza. Rather than throwing it away, they gave it to the table for free and said we could snack on this while the new pizza was being made. 10 minutes later, the "correctly" cooked pizza made its away out. I put "correctly" in quotes because they probably could have just thrown cheese crumbles at the end and I wouldn't have noticed. Definitely speaks to their high quality standards and integrity! When I asked for the checks the waiter said there was no charge FOR BOTH PIZZAS and apologized again for the mess up. It's been a super long time since I've had exceptional customer service like this. Overall the pizza itself is solid, 4/5 stars, the quality control is 5/5, and the customer service is 6/5 stars (no not a typo). I was just visiting for a business trip, but Dewey's is now my favorite pizza chain. Next time I'm in the area, you can bet your pizza I'm definitely coming back here! read more

Great pizza, but even more their concern about getting it right is just amazing. The customer service is second to none! We ordered a pizza when the brought it out they went out of there way to apologise about what looked like a bubble in the crust had burst in the "middle" of the pie. It really wasn't a concern but they insisted we let them make another for us to take home! Simple amazing, Besides the fact that the food is THAT good, that has to be, no that was the best example of taking care of your patrons. Simply amazing. read more

My absolute FAVORITE pizza spot. The red sauce is sweet and the crust is perfect and buttery. The toppings are always fresh and service is usually decent. Dewey's style is similar to Pies n' Pints. They have expanded in the past decade, which is great. I ordered a small basic pie with pizza & green peppers recently and was reminded why this place is hands-down the best around. read more

They accidentally ended up putting black olives on our pizza due to a technical error, but they were very nice about it. They had a new pie ready for us in no time, gave us a gift card for our patience, and even offered us drinks while we waited! Also, I've had their pizza many times before, and it's well worth the price. read more

The food is really good here. We had a group of 12 recently and ordered several pizzas, and all of the pies were great.

Great pizza and every encounter seems genuine. The people working here give great recommendations for the best pizza and the food looks and tastes amazing. read more

Delicious food and will go above and beyond if the order is incorrect/anything goes wrong. Great service model.

The best worker there is a girl called Kendra ! She was so sweet and I simply loved her attitude towards everything ! She was fast and the best ! read more

What a fantastic way to spend an evening before a high school football game! We we immediately greeted as we walked in the door. The wait staff made sure we had full drinks all evening. The calzones were wonderful and the pizza was delicious! We will definitely be back when we're in that neck of the woods. Well done! read more

Went as a group of 5 and several pizzas ordered. Worth the made to order wait. My favorite pizza in town. Great menu great flavors. Friendly staff. read more

We go to Dewey's probably once or twice a month, and it's always good. They have some great beers, decent wine, and very responsive and proactive service staff. Very fast paced and not necessarily appropriate for a romantic evening, but if you go later it settles down and is relaxing. Very good salads, calzones and pizzas. Very much enjoy. Just an update, stopped by for dinner this past weekend and we noticed this is one of the few places that you really see the manager hustle with the staff. This guy never stopped moving, just kept clearing and resetting tables, it's always nice to see management and staff working as a team in order to provide a great experience for their guests - kudos. Update #2 - just got back from having dinner and had a really great experience with both the manager, Marie, and the server, Josh. The service is always very good, and Josh definitely took great care of us without being intrusive. Always friendly and dependable, there is always someone there when you need them. Further, Marie went above and beyond in making sure our night was pleasant and that we were taken care of. It's places like this, joints that simply serve great food and great service, that put the stuffy and/or chain places to shame. There should be more places like Dewey's. Fantastic. read more

I know people refer to this as a "chain," but when you're not from the Dayton/Cincy area, it really isn't. Yes, they have a few locations, but that does not constitute chain in my eyes. My husband and I moved to Dayton b/c for work about a year and a half ago, but just recently discovered Dewey's. We LOVE it. We have somewhat high standards when it comes to fresh ingredients and unique ideas because we moved from D.C., where the food is just EPIC. The salads at Dewey's are amazing and always fresh. Our favorite pizza so far has been the Titos, which is seasonal, so I am excited to see what is next! High recommend this place!! read more

I know I'm going to get slammed for this but this pizza is good, the main thing is that the price makes it hard to be come someone who regularly goes back; but then again maybe I am just a poor college student. This place always seems to be packed, so clearly they are doing something right. The pizza crust is good, but sometimes feels overdone by the wide plethora of toppings that Dewys offers. Pretty much anything that you can imagine is available to get on the pizza. I keep coming back for the calzones though, your choice of any three toppings stuffed with ricotta, and mozzarella cheese for 7.95? a great deal, and huge, the size of my head or a large plate to be sure. Dewys also have a great wine and beer selection and a good team service thing going on where you have about a million waiters. It works well but to a point. The kitchen is to small for food to come out in a timely manner when the place is crowded, and I've been here every night of the week and had a short wait to get seated. Great Pizza, but not the best in Dayton as so many here proclaim it to be. read more

For a chain restaurant Dewey's serves up delightful eats made with super fresh ingredients - I think our server even stated they don't have a freezer. The salads are loaded with seasonal veggies and are lightly dressed. The pizzas have a chewy, flavorful crust and don't leave you with that gut bomb feeling. They serve up great craft brews, a rarity to find in Dayton, and a decent wine selection. Service is prompt and the price point for the quality is good. A neighborhood gem in the UD area for sure.

This place is perfect for post-move-in sustinence, or any time parents come to visit. Or any time at all, really! It was my parents favorite spot to eat in Dayton that was close to campus, and I was always more than willing to eat there. Birthdays, girls nights, splurge nights (for college-budgets)...I loved everything about Dewey's. The service is team based, so anyone that works there will fill up your drink, take your order, bring your food out, etc. Makes for a quick and enjoyable evening or lunch where you never actually need to ask for anything. As a UD grad, I miss Dewey's a lot! read more

Great service, terrific pizza! Went late on a Monday evening (hour prior to close). No wait, great beer selection, custom pizza build was perfect. read more

Gourmet Pizza in a fun hip atmosphere, serves alcohol, etc. We had the wild mushroom pizza - it was excellent. The gourmet salads were great as well. I'd prefer a bit quieter restaurant, but those wanted a cool, hip, happening restaurant will like this place. I am probably getting old. none-the-less, I am definitely a fan and intend to go again. This is a local chain, they are soon opening a restaurant in Centerville, and have a location in Newport on the levee. read more

Unique pies! I've eaten pizza all over this great country of ours, and Dewey's offers something truly unique (especially for a chain!). The style of pie features a yeasty, somewhat sweet crust which begs for salty, savory toppings. The Poe, which features sweet roasted garlic and salty olives, as well as goat cheese for bite and tomatoes and parsley is hands-down one of the most balanced pizzas I've ever had the pleasure of eating. This spot is pricey for college kids, but it hits the spot when you gather a group. read more

Friendly staff, amazing pizza, and a pleasant atmosphere. Dewey's Pizza is definitely on my list of favorite pizza restaurants. The only reason it's not five stars is because I removed one on account of personal preference, the sauce is a tad too spicy for my liking, but not too spicy to eat through, on the whole it was an excellent dining experience. read more

Fairly good pizza for a chain. Pleasantly chewy crust, lots of options for toppings. I find that the crust can be a bit limp in the centre on larger sizes, but that's expected. Environment can be noisy, especially because it's a single open room. Fairly good beer list with plenty of craft and local beers on tap. Wait times can be long on the weekends. Salads are oversized. Not a bad option if you're trying to stay in the area... but there are locally owned pizza places not far away that serve better food with superior beer selections. read more

We've dinned in once before pizza was good, ordered one large pep and one large cheese to go and they were awful. Complete disappointment since we live 2 hours away and were visiting family and were looking forward to dewys again...never happening again read more

Maybe my family's most favorite pizza place in all of Dayton. Anytime friends come in from out of town and want a casual eatery, we take them to Dewey's and the come away loving it! The pizza is outstanding, calzones are awesome, and solid beers on draft. Service is second to none! read more

Zè pizza dough is pretty tasty. The menu is fun and different but it's still pizza. I liked the black beans on the BBQ chicken pizza. It was very nice, actually. The crust though. Mmmmmm. read more

Fancy pizza in a mid-western town, sign me up! The variety of pizza is great, if you don't eat meat, then you are in luck, just you will have to decide all the different varieties that are not made with meat. If you like meat, you got plenty to choose from as well. I understand very busy during college time, so expect a wait. Even on a Thursday night in the middle of July it was packed with families and folks. The staff here are top-notch, very helpful and know how to prepare and serve food. Not always the case these days. read more

It was our first time at Dewey's. Our friends have raved about the place and decided to take us there after a track meet at Welcome Stadium. It did not disappoint! We were greeted and seated immediately. Our waiter was fantastic! The pizza menu was extensive with all fresh ingredients. I love that you can have your pizza made exactly how you want it...white or red sauce, all types of cheese toppings, and the assortment of mushrooms is yummy. I can't compliment this establishment enough. We will be back soon! read more

Was in town with my son's high school band and needed to find good pizza for 60 people. Even though they couldn't accommodate all of us in house, they were helpful when I called in advance and discussed a to go order. When we arrived to pick up our 18 pizzas they were again very helpful and a group of employees helped to carry the pies to my car. Pizza was delicious and the kids especially loved the chicken with white sauce. read more
