ILLY’S Fire Pizza will feature breakfast pizza with your choice of bacon, sausage or oxtail with egg and cheese, as well as breakfast sandwiches and garlic knots and gravy. The restaurant now offers beef products, in addition to turkey.
Robert said oxtail is gaining momentum on the east coast and they wanted to offer this option to those in the Dayton area. Creating a brunch menu with the items they already had was a lot of fun for the couple.
Jasmine Brown, owner of De’Lish, a Cajun, creole, comfort food concept, said when she had a restaurant downtown they were known for having a weekly brunch.

“We used to do a big buffet and that’s actually one of the things that we are known for,” Brown said.
She plans to have sweet potato waffles and chicken as a brunch staple with weekly specials. The waffle itself is vegan and uses Uncle Boof’s World Famous Pancake Mix. Instead of chicken, customers can order the vegan option of fried lion’s mane mushrooms from Guided by Mushrooms. Something fun for the kids include fried donut bites topped with Nutella and Fruity Pebbles.
Shafton Greene, the owner of SOCA, said it was easy to implement brunch because he loves to cook.
“It’s not even like work,” Greene said. “We’ve been doing really good.”
