My favorite is the Mahi Mahi, it comes in a delicious sauce. If you get a side, try the au gratin potatoes. This is not a fast-food restaurant, you are going to wait for your food to come out. You're going to get bread and butter and your drinks, then your salad or soup, then your entree. It's going to be a long dinner. Plan on that. It's not a place where you are in and out in an hour. It's ideal for a socializing dinner, business dinner or a long date. They have tiramisu for dessert, even though it isn't on the menu. It's delicious. I've only had a not great experience once or twice and honestly it depends on who your server is. Overall, I highly recommend trying it out if you have never been.

We ordered a variety of pasta and pizza. Most entrees come with salad & garlic knots. The knots were drizzled in garlic batter and delicious. The minestrone had a nice balance of fresh vegetables, beans, and pasta bathed in tomato soup. The pasta trios were very generously portioned and the flavor was outstanding. The pizza had a nice crust with fresh toppings. We left with individual pieces of cheese cake, tiramisu, and limoncello for dessert later. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful during our meal. We enjoyed the decor and had a great overall experience.

Sonora Grill Seafood Steak Bar & Grill…read more A note on stars; Sonora Grille is on Burkhardt, and in a small strip mall; I am not inclined to award a strip mall restaurant 5 stars; however.... PULPO BRASAS v PULPO KORA Our server suggested Brasas because she thought Kora was too spicey for us - bad advice - we recommend Kora. What does octopus taste like? Not chicken, not lobster, not...; octopus taste like octopus, and Sonora Grill offers best octopus in Dayton. Began researching Yelp for special Birthday restaurant - usually goto Flemings, Oceano, and/or similar properties. Travel Tip: do check menu Spanish definitions to avoid order errors. An advantage of residing in the Greater Dayton Metropolitan Area is the fact that there are several dining options and Sonora Grille was not on our radar. Also there seems to be a healthy turnover of restaurant properties, and we do attempt to be aware of our options. Our search: Yelp Best Seafood restaurants Greater Dayton Metropolitan Area. One expects Jays and Oceano to be listed; however, there are a few which we would not list. Reviews and ratings can be subjective, and personal preferences may vary; we have no interest in sports bars or "loud" fried food eateries. We can depend upon Yelp whilst researching: Here are 5 Star Reviews for Sonora. Several of these reviews encouraged us to visit Sonora Grill Seafood Steak Bar & Grill. Phenomenal and authentic food... Best tasting OCTOPUS, in Ohio of all places!! Did not expect a fancy seafood place inside of a latin market! I was looking for the perfect place that serves steak and seafood for my husband's birthday..... This place is a hidden gem.... Best food I have ever had in Ohio, great service as well.... We have studied the menu and our plan: FRITURAS DE MAR 21.99 bring 2 small plates to divide Calamari rings, octopus pieces, and seasoned shrimp coated in crispy flour, served with tartar and chipotle dressing. CALDO BIRRIA -- 20.99 serve in two bowls Caldo birria, also known as birria en caldo, is a rich and flavorful Mexican stew that has gained immense popularity for its tender meat and savory broth. PULPO BRASAS 28.99 Perfectly cooked in a butter marinade with garlic, soy sauce, and chipotle served with rice and salad. Mounted on corn husks. FILETE NAYARIT 24.99 Curvina fillet covered with shrimp, octopus, and garlic bell peppers served with rice and salad. Pasta del Mare Seafood mix cooked in tomato sauce, onion with fettuccine pasta. Churro's We do expect to request take away boxes following dining. Throughout our 60 year relationship, my wife enjoys desert as an appetizer, and today is no exception. The Churro's are delivered in a flash; we discovered this special treat nearly 50 years ago during an expedition to Spain and Portugal. The very best Churro's were prepared by roadside vendors, and our friends, Bill and Ellen Rose agreed. I also requested that CALDO BIRRIA be served prior to the entrees, and this is a delightful dish. As experienced Sunday Diners, we arrive at 11:00am to avoid the "church rush." Church folks have not yet discovered this excellent venue. Venue: a distinct Hispanic dining event; large, well-lighted restaurant with very loud music - we encouraged management to decrease volume. Sophia was our delightful young server; her English was passable; she did not quite understand why my wife wanted churros as an appetizer, but the churros soon came, and my wife observed that these taste like Spain. Sonora Grille reminded us of some fine restaurants in Puerto Vallarta. My dear wife finally elected CAMARONES AL GRILL, and we offer 5 stars to menu and to dining. Overall a Five Star experience; pays to get off the beaten path. Following lunch, my wife suggests an Open House to view Benham Grove venues for an upcoming event. Next she opts for a Sunday Estate Sale....

The first time we went, I had one of the seafood boils. Not only was there a very hefty portion provided, everything was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. I did the Bleu Wave signature seasoning and loved it, but may try a different one next time to see how the others are. The boils are awesome if you are hungry, love seafood and are willing to get a little messy. We have also had multiple appetizers including the spring rolls which are packed with flavor, and the baked oysters which are fresh from Virginia and cooked to perfection. Hard for us to not get them everytime we go. Finally, the vietnamese food itself. The vermicelli noodles and pho are both super flavorful and make you feel like you are eating a genuine vietnamese meal. So whether you are in the mood for a seafood boil or vietnamese food itself, this spot is the place to be. I plan on many more visits in the future! As good as the carry-out was, I prefer to dine-in because the service has been top notch every time!! 10 out of 10.

Exciting concept, great seafood, just watch the sauce choice!…read more I was so excited to try this place out! The concept of a seafood boil spot combined with a Vietnamese restaurant felt very unique. We ordered the snow crab, scallops, and shrimp. I chose the seasoned garlic butter, but honestly, I couldn't find the "season" in it--it tasted more like plain butter than anything else. However, my friend ordered the spicy Asian seasoning, and it was delicious! I definitely had some food envy there. Overall, the quality of the seafood was decent. The location is also really convenient, right on the outside of the mall. Despite the garlic butter being a little plain for my taste, I'd definitely stop by again if I'm in the area (I'll just order the Asian seasoning next time!).

Caveat: Vallarta Mexican Seafood is several rungs above the average Tex-Mex joint in the Greater Dayton Metropolitan Area.
