Tank's. An icon. Best hamburgers in town. It's like Dayton's own version of "Cheers" but not as pretty! It's one of our favorites.

The Schuster is truly a gem. There is always something happening at the Schuster and the best place to eat before the show is Citilites. It is located in the lobby and if you make reservations, you'll be finished in time for the show.
