Carmens Deli & Bistro

Fresh. Fresh. Fresh. This deli had excellent reviews. I was cycling the Great Miami River Trail and found myself in downtown Dayton at lunch. It's a short few blocks from RiverScape in an office tower. The food and service was amazing. I had the southwest chicken wrap that was perhaps the best wrap I have eaten. The amazing side of a mideastern salad of chopped veggies in a deliciously spiced dressing was the star of the show. The owner was attentive, proud of his business, and proud of his recipes from his family. I can't recommend this deli more. I will return on my next visit to Downtown Dayton.

Wish I could give 6 stars! Haitham is such a great host and I’ve never felt more welcome in an establishment as a new customer. The service was beyond superb. We got a tuna melt and Philly steak and cheese, as well as pasta salad, potato salad, and hamburger soup and everything was absolutely delicious! We’ll definitely be returning asap!!!

I just happened to drive by and see this place. Stopped in to have food. Hitham the owner is friendly, and sincerely cares about the interaction. Todd the chef made me the best damn burger I've had in I don't know how long. I've already told my coworkers and look forward to frequenting this unique little place in downtown dayton.
