"Soooo, tonight I went to Morgan’s in downtown Dayton off W. Third St. It is an elevated soul food restaurant that serves delicious food. The menu is limited and the dining room is small, but you should be able to find something to your liking. There was a large group of us and it was hard to get everyone’s thoughts at the end of the table, but here is my partial review. Friend one ordered the chicken wing dinner. They were not whole wings, but 7 party wings. There were about 10 sauces to choose from and it came w/ a roll and two sides. Friend one went with the honey lemon pepper wings, gouda mac and cheese, and green beans. The green beans had a little kick of heat, but tasted a little salty. A spiral noodle was used for the mac and cheese. It was greatly appreciated as it held the cheese really well. The honey lemon pepper wings were good, but perhaps a little too sweet w/ the honey. Because friend one was torn between the honey lemon pepper wings and the bourbon glaze wings, some of the bourbon glaze was requested on the side and it was preferred. If rating from 1-5, friend one would give the meal a 3. Friend two ordered the bourbon glazed salmon dinner, which came w/ a side of rice. For the sides, mac and cheese and cabbage. For friend two, the salmon was awesome, never tasted anything better. Although friend two is usually not a fan of rice, it was felt the rice was very good. The cabbage was tender, with a balance of tartness and sweetness. Usually friend two is critical of mac and cheese, but felt this version was awesome….wonderful. Also appreciated our server Marcus who was very kind and helpful. Friends three and four ordered meals to go. Friend five ordered the beef Philly cheesesteak. There was silence at the end of the table as the meal was thoroughly enjoyed along w/ the wildberry lemon drop. Friend six also had the salmon dinner and thought it was lovely and delicious. Friend seven had the salmon salad, along with a drink called 1101. It consisted of bourbon, Hennessey, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Their response: “No notes, get to Morgan’s!!” Friend eight had the salmon dinner and said it was very good, in fact excellent. Also got a slice of the carrot cake to go. Friend nine had the honey lemon pepper wings, and thought they were good. Friend ten started w/ the wildberry lemon drop and thought it was really good. Also ordered the bourbon glazed salmon dinner w/ green beans and mac and cheese, and a side salad as well. Friend ten is usually not a fan of mac and cheese, but felt this one was really good. Appreciated that there was cheese in every crevice of the noodle and yet it was not too cheesy. Also appreciated the tinge of spice in the green beans, but did not feel that they were too salty. The salmon was really good and the glaze was out of this world. Also could not stop raving about the rice. Friend ten also had the 1101 drink and thought it was good as well. Appreciated that the flavor was well balanced and was able to taste both the bourbon and the Hennessey in the drink. For me, I started w/ a couple glasses of Villa M peach. I am a fan of a sweet sparkling wine. I decided to go w/ the honey lemon pepper wings as it was a fave of our server Marcus. For my sides, I got the green beans and the mac and cheese. The wings were really good, fried nice and crispy. Usually lemon pepper can be salty, however, I did not find that to be the case, perhaps b/c of the honey. The mac and cheese was delicious; cheesy and hot. I also was not a fan of the green beans. I found them to be salty as well. I ended my meal w/ the 1101 cocktail and also agree that it was well balanced. I got a piece of carrot cake to go. All in all, I thought it was a very good meal and I would go back. Not necessarily conducive for large groups, as we took up the majority of the restaurant. Though the menu is small, there were some good options, and the prices and portion sizes were good. Give it a try and let me know what you think."

"Morgan is absolutely amazing. My guy at the front desk Well both of them are the bomb. I always get a laugh when I come here my favorite is between the Buffalo chicken wrap or his wings. They are absolutely amazing and that cheesecake I have a video of the pull that is the bomb and I only use his food and customer service amazing but he also is a staple in the community. I had a school supply giveaway and he helped by feeding all of the children."

"This place was amazing!!! We shopped around before choosing a spot to eat the night we went & let me tell you im so glad we found this place. Food was DELICIOUS. We had a drink outside while waiting for our food which took exactly as long as drinking the drink. They were busy too. Place was clean, chill friendly environment. Definitely recommend!!! I wish I lived closer we were only passing through the area, but anytime were back around there were definitely going back!!! We had the Beef Philly cheese steak with the fries & bourbon glazed salmon with rice, mac & cheese, veggies & a melt in your mouth roll GO HERE!"
