We took a menu and looked it over while we waites. The desk staff was all very courteous and polite. All very professional in attire and behavior. The chef came out at some point to pass out little chocolate chip / m&m muffins. He was so cheerful! Our waiter, Nick, was fabulous. He was spot on. He took our order making us feel like we had his time and he was not in a hurry. Our drinks were frequently refreshed during our visit. He checked in at perfect intervals and never forgot our request (whether it was crayons or an extra cup). The food arrived timely, despite how busy it was. Tater tots ans chicken for my daughter was perfect lly crunch, moist and not greasy feeling. Husbands scramble eggs were perfectly fluffy. My over easy, as it should. The biscuits are wonderful, fluffy and light. Not the usual dense bricks we find. We highly recommend!

The theme is around their biscuits. They make the food in front of you. One thing to note is they don't have a stove! Everything is made freshly plated or in the oven.

Parking is on the street, and there's a garage nearby. Upon entering we were advised that reservations were recommended at least 2-3 weeks in advance, but , fortunately we were able to all sit together by the front window facing Ludlow St.No problem, but the seats were unpadded. There is no wait staff at this location, but we always got the attention of workers. Our food was delicious, we all loved our homemade pasta selections. The only thing I have to say is that it is a bit pricey for what you receive. Workers are nice, restaurant is pleasant and clean.

I approached my visit to Toasted with high expectations, however our brunch was peppered with…read moremultiple factors that left me wishing we had dined elsewhere. The beginning: impressive decor (lots of color, tasteful artwork and accessories), expansive bakery display featured HUGE donuts, cinnamon rolls, and muffins, ability to accommodate our party of 9 without much of a wait. The ordering: not good. The menu appears to have lots of options for all types of eaters, including gluten free and plant based, however our server was not knowledgeable about the ingredients or preparation methods for the options, resulting in a lack of confidence about the safety of our choices. When we asked if she could check with the kitchen she said she didn't think so. Additionally, Toasted charges $1 for any changes/alterations, including substituting tofu for meat AND eggs; this results in a diner paying MORE for less food which doesn't make sense. They also charge extra for plant based milk, which even Starbucks has stopped doing. The service: not great. First another table's food was delivered to us resulting in confusion. Our party ordered two veggie sandwiches, one with no mayo and dressing for the greens on the side, the other WITH mayo AND dressing. One arrived with mayo and dressing on the side, the other without any mayo with dressed greens. An omelet ordered without meat arrived with sausage. When it was sent back it was remade with bacon instead. The third time was okay, other than still having one piece of bacon on top. One of our party didn't receive her food until everyone else was nearly finished eating (it was a grain bowl, which should not have taken very long to prepare). The food: mixed. The cinnamon roll - fabulous. The veggie sandwich - dry, lacking flavor (both the one with mayo and the one without). Tomato soup and avocado toast both lacked flavor and pizzaz. The toasted cheese sandwich consisted of a large concealed lump of cheese sandwiched between buttered, quite well-toasted sourdough. The coffee was fine. Pricing: as expected for brunch. That said, I would NOT pay $15 again for that particular veggie sandwich (or $4 for coffee). Overall, I love brunch, and I expect brunch to love me back. Toasted has a long way to go to meet my expectations.

The restaurant is quite attractive and well-maintained. Eschewing the buffet, I ordered the American breakfast combo off of the menu. Two eggs, sausage, ham, bacon, or Canadian bacon, a large mound of crispy and quite tasty hash browns, and a bread of choice. I went with two eggs over medium, sausage links, the delicious hash browns, a poppy seed bagel with cream cheese, and four sausage links. Everything was cooked perfectly and the portions were so generous that I could only eat half. It comes with coffee at no additional charge and the server left an individual carafe at my table so that I could manage my own refills. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone living or traveling to Dayton.

Easy to find near UD campus and Arena. I had reservations but there was hardly anyone inside so…read morethey weren't needed. Restaurant was nice inside. However the chairs were so hard and not comfortable all night. The menu had a lot of various offerings. We went with a mocktail and spinach, lobster, artichoke dip to start. They were good but I would have preferred the naan bread served warm with the dip instead of cold. We went with short rib risotto for our main. It was tender meat but a lot of mushroom sauce. And the risotto was underwhelming and not well seasoned and pretty bland. Server was friendly but it was so slow all night. We waited for 20 minutes for our bill after we were done eating. Not sure I'd be back for lunch/dinner but maybe would try their brunch offerings.
