Finally got to try the "new" Screen Door Café in Dayton (yes, I'm late to the party) and I give it 5 stars! We had a party of eight, but service was timely and attentive but not to the point of hovering which is just perfect for me. The meatloaf was heavenly and very generous - I put a dent in it with more than enough left over for my son's lunch the next day. Others at the table ordered the pork chop, pasta, fried shrimp, grown-up grilled cheese - everyone was pleased. Interesting appetizer of the night? Soul rolls - they were great. I am NOT a dessert person - you can't force me to eat sugar. But we did decide to order some cake and share. I highly recommend the Butter Pecan Cake. It was worth the calories and any ensuing diabetic coma. So happy to have this wonderful dining option in Dayton!
Always a great experience when we go! Gabriel and Eva are the nicest and we are always well taken care of. Tonight my daughters special request for a dish not usually on their menu was fulfilled. I can’t say enough about this establishment. It’s always our first choice when visiting Dayton. Highly recommend it!
First off, beautiful location, even though the place was slammed with business the staff was extremely friendly and quick. Food took less than 15 min even though the place was packed. Fresh ingredients on the burgers and crispy fries (which are usually the first thing to be soggy when a restaurant is busy). We will be returning for sure.
My sister and I had lunch here today to celebrate her birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and the service! The young man that served us was so attentive and courteous! He was excellent! I had the grilled salmon and kale and my sister had the veggie pasta. We sampled each plate and both were delicious! Even the drive there from Harrison Bay was beautiful! Thanks for a very memorable day!
The food, atmosphere, and service was amazing. If you have time to make the drive, you will not be sorry. We had the best server! He was attentive, took pictures for us, and made our time with family very special. We will definitely be back!
Best restaurant in this area ...the crab cakes were amazing...and the coffee to die for...our waitress Koren was the best....we will be back....
My sister and I were in town on a little history tour and looked online for a place to eat a little something before we hit the road. The pictures online looked so good we quickly decided that it had to be better than fast food, so why not? Quite frankly... the food couldn’t be better. The way they use their special hot sauce will make you want them to sell it in stores. Such an amazing experience - great food, great service. Will definitely make our way from Cleveland again just to go here.
We've loved this place since the first time we ate there in 2015, when we first moved to Soddy Daisy. Family, staff, food..amazing!
Yall, this place is like coming home! It's real potatoes, hand-breaded fried green tomatoes, homemade meatloaf, bbq from scratch amd the best peanut butter pie Ive ever had all in a turn of the century beautiful farm house. I cant wait to go back!!
If you’re in Dayton, this is a must stop for the best food. We enjoyed a wonderful Sunday Brunch. �
Friendly service and outstanding food. Everything was delicious and we would highly recommend!!!
A good Friend of mine ordered me a Ruben because I have never tried one before and I am glad my first one came from y'all !! It really was the best sandwich I have ever enjoyed !!
Southern dishes with such an original twist, including the pimiento cheese! So far, I’ve said “yummm” with every bite on every dish I’ve tried! And I look forward to going back as many times as necessary to try everything on the menu!
This place was amazing!!! First time here and we will definitely be back! Everything we ordered was really, really great!!! The shrimp and grits were wonderful and worth the trip! Everything we had was fresh, homemade, and tasted excellent! I can’t say enough about how good the food, service, (our waitress was outstanding) atmosphere, and pricing was! ❤️
We had a delicious meal at Screen Door Kitchen! The beet risotto with goat cheese salmon was melt in your mouth good.
I especially loved the fried pickles- they were the best I’ve had in my life!! The breading and thin slice of the pickle was perfect.
Can’t wait to go back and try more. This restaurant is a MUST if you are in the Dayton area.
Everything here is amazing!! DELICIOUS food and Great People!! The serving sizes are huge. Definitely worth the trip! The shrimp and grits are the best I've ever tasted.
I've been here a couple times before, but had somehow not had brunch yet. Today I had the Crab Cake Benedict. So freaking good! Everything about this was amazing. My friend had the mile high omelette with a side of biscuits and gravy. We both finished our plates 😊 I somehow found room for dessert when i heard about the pumpkin cinnamon roll. Great choice. I can't recommend Screen Door Kitchen enough. Great job y'all! Please keep doing what you do!
I was told about this place from a realtor who lives in the area. Let me tell you, the food was fantastic! We started with appetizers that were unique and delicious. My main course of shrimp and grits was satisfying and the flavor was delicious. My hubby got the rib eye steak and mashed potatoes and broccoli. The potatoes are fresh scratch made and the steak was tender and very flavorful. We got the peanut butter pie for dessert and is was so good. We also got the cheese cake and the chocolate cake to take home. Both of those were so good. I would go back anytime!
I was happy to find this hidden gem in rural Tennessee. I had the best shrimp and grits in years from the Charleston SC native chef. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Delicious food. Wonderful kind staff. Great service. Loved this place. Will absolutely return! FGT "Snack" was awesome.
