Two (almost) new restaurants open in Dayton, Fairborn
Two restaurants opened in Dayton and Fairborn recently enough to still have their “Now Open!” signs up, but long enough ago to work out their opening jitters.
Roscoe’s Pizza & Ribs is located at 940 Troy St. at Leo Street near Kiser school, in a spot in which a few other eateries have come and gone. Kevin Harris — co-owner with partner Craig Marvin and Craig’s wife Charmayn — said the restaurant opened in early May, and the first few months have “been like a roller-coaster,” although the eatery is building a more steady clientele from among neighborhood residents and Dayton city workers.
The Roscoe’s menu includes pizza — it’s currently offering a $5 special for medium one-topping — along with ribs (whole slab for $18.95, and Harris said his racks include the rib tips), submarine sandwiches (including a house specialty cheesesteak sub), burgers, wings, lasagna and spaghetti.
Roscoe’s offers eat-in, carry-out and delivery, including to downtown Dayton. It’s open from 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday, until midnight on Friday and Saturday, and is closed Sunday. For more information, call (937) 225-3901.
In Fairborn, the J.Y. Bamboo restaurant opened about six weeks ago at 609 N. Broad St. in a building that previously housed a payday lending company. It offers a wide variety of Asian dishes, including Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Vietenamese, as well as a teriyaki grill and a sushi bar. Beer and wine are served as well.
The Asian restaurant is open Monday through Thursday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Sunday noon to 10 p.m. For more information, call (937) 754-9912.

Fairborn has always had good Asian dining. I wish the new place well and will try it. I hope Roscoe’s has the golden forumula to make it at that location. I remember Ben’s Table.
