Mixture of casual and classy dining. Went here for the first time the other day with my two year old son at lunchtime. I'm new to the Dayton area and let me tell you, this restaurant has amazing food and people working there are very nice. It really is a whole vibe. I told my mom about this place now she wants to order from here. This restaurant is a gem. Definitely recommend!

Again, when out of town for work, I love to find unique places to eat. Finding this restaurant on Google, I ventured downtown Dayton and found 1Eleven. Am glad I stopped for a bite to eat. I tried the Flavor House Rolls, which sold me on the cabbage and collard greens lol, and the Salmon Cheesesteak - that sandwich is so good. Another unique item on the menu was the Sweet Potato Cheesecake, definitely different and I'd definitely have to watch my visits to get some if I lived closer, so good. Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who visits Dayton. And just to add at the end, they have the cleanest and prettiest restaurant bathroom I've ever seen.

We had our holiday luncheon here and they did an amazing job! The private room, decor and centerpieces were stunning and our servers knocked it out of the park! Food was wonderful and much fun was had by all! Highly recommend!

10/10 service, food, flavor and cocktails were amazing. Highly recommend checking it out. I had the chicken Fontaine, and my partner had the fried fish and shrimp. Pricing was very fair for the quality.

First time back to Flavor House at their new location in the 130 building. Great experience. They have found a great vibe in this new space. Got some cocktails and the fried red snapper before a show at the Schuster Center. Mac and cheese and collards were so tasty! Highly recommend checking out this spot!

I would rate this restaurant a 10/10. The atmosphere was amazing! The restaurant was so beautiful and elegantly decorated. Our server was so delightful. I got the Salmon dish and it was one of the most delicious meals I've ever had. The salmon was cooked perfectly, the mashed potatoes were creamy, and I could taste the freshness of the green beans. The manager was very sweet and came over to ask how everything was. I will definitely be coming back and bringing more friends!

Everything from atmosphere to the food was incredible. First time eating here and I was introduced to the wonderful combination of salmon in a cheese steak. I was beyond impressed with the meal. The owner stopped by to check on us multiple times. I made sure to let him know how great everything was. Staff was all very friendly. Will be back for sure!

Flavor House absolutely lived up to the hype. The oxtail was melt-in-your-mouth tender — rich, flavorful, and clearly slow-cooked with love. Every bite was worth it. We came with a birthday crew, and the staff was incredibly attentive and kind, making sure our table was well taken care of the entire night. Drinks were delicious, the sweet potato cheesecake was a standout, and they also had great gluten-free options, including salmon bites that were absolutely delicious. It’s not really a place geared toward kids, but they still made it work for us since the birthday mom was dying to try their Jamaican food — and we’re so glad we did. Amazing food, great service, and a perfect spot for a birthday dinner or date night. We’ll definitely be back. 🇯🇲✨

Very chic and upscale look with warm and friendly environment. Called ahead for reservations for my fiance birthday and staff was kind and friendly answering my questions regarding ingredients as he does not eat pork products. The owner came and greeted us after arriving and even gave a free appetizer in addition to the one we ordered because he wanted us to try it. And let me tell you, IT WAS AMAZING! 👏🤤 I'll let the photos speak for themselves on the food. Just know we will be back! (Pictured is a full fried red snapper with collard greens and Mac n cheese, Glazed lollipop lamb chops with mashed potato and green beans, fried catfish nuggets, Collard green dip with pita chips, and sweet potato cheesecake.) The cocktails were delicious as well.
